Chapter 16


    Ashley went on, “At first, she sold herself to Wayne for money. Recently, Wayne got bored of her and


    dumped her. And now, she’s got her eyes on you! I couldn’t bear to see you get fooled, so I had to let


    you know!”


    There was a brief pause as Evan processed Ashley’s response. He then looked up at her, his gaze


    unwavering. “And?” he questioned, expecting more from her.


    Ashley, taken aback by his persistence, echoed his word, “And?”


    Sensing the gravity of the situation, Evan continued, “Miss, I, Evan, never form opinions about people I


    care for solely based on hearsay and idle chatter.”


    With those words, he concluded his statement, walking past Ashley without ncing


    back.


    As he departed, Ashley remained rooted in ce, a shiver running down her spine, feeling the weight


    of his message sink in.


    What was so great about Rosalynn? Wayne! Evan! Even Jacob sometimes protected her, intentionally


    or unintentionally!

    Rosalynn dismissed Paige and hastily made her way back to her residence. She quickly prepared


    herself, changing her clothes, and getting ready to head to thepany.


    The problem with Prodigy Inc. had been resolved, and to prevent any furtherplications, she had to


    apany the sales department to Prodigy Inc. to sign the


    contract.


    Upon opening her wardrobe, Rosalynn hesitated for a moment. Although she seldom visited Wayne’s


    residence, Wayne came over quite often. At first, he didn’t spend the night, then gradually stayed over,


    and finally even spent weekends here. Even President Silverman would get bored of Michelin-starred


    chef’s dishes eventually. At her ce, he mostly enjoyed the homemade meals she cooked. Therefore,


    her ce had quite a bit of Wayne’s stuff – dress shoes, sneakers, and slippers in the shoe cab, his


    razor and shower gel in the bathroom, and half of his suits in the closet.


    As Rosalynn pondered the situation, she couldn’t shake the strange feeling that she was actually living


    with Wayne.


    “I really need to find a new ce as soon as possible,” she muttered, quickly grabbing a suit from the


    back of her wardrobe and changing into it.


    At Bane Corporation.


    Not a single person in Dous’s team felt the joy of Friday’s arrival, all looking utterly dejected.


    “What are you all sulking about? Lost one deal and now you don’t care about performance anymore?”


    Dous came back from outside and began to scold his subordinates!


    “Boss, I can’t get over the anger until higher-ups deal with Secretary Tesdal! Nothing feels. right!”


    “Yeah! Boss, look at my dark circles! No amount of beauty treatments can save me now!”


    Everyone chimed in with their grievances.


    “What’s the rush? The president only gave her three days, and now that the deal is gone, she can’t


    escape her fate!” Dous furrowed his brows.


    Just then, the door of Sales Team 1 was pushed open.


    “Who can’t escape?”


    A chilly voice came from the entrance.


    Everyone looked over to see Rosalynn, with her big curly hair, holding a folder and aptop, standing


    there.


    “You messed up my business, and you still dare toe to our department!” A beautiful.dy who had


    just mentioned her dark circles was about to charge at Rosalynn.


    This project was the first one she worked on, and she was set to earn the most from it. She had even


    picked out a property to buy already!


    “Alexis! Calm down! Hitting people is against thew!” A few colleagues held her back.


    Rosalynn’splexion underwent a noticeable change. “Who informed you that the agreement was


    canceled?”


    Alexis Leanos seethed with rage, her fury burning hot enough to ignite the entire house. “Who told me?


    The VP of Prodigy Inc. had the audacity to say it directly to my face! He nearly tossed the project book


    right in front of me!”


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    Recalling that humiliating moment, Alexis felt an overwhelming urge to devour someone alive.


    “Really?” Rosalynn raised her hand, shaking the folder in her hand, “But Mr. Wace’s assistant just


    informed me that we’re going to Prodigy Inc. to discuss the contract signing at 3 in the afternoon.”


    “Wace? Who’s Wa…” Alexis stopped mid-sentence as she realized who Rosalynn was referring to.


    She widened her eyes, “Who? Wace?”
