Chapter 19 Pay Back In Kind


    Before Ashley could see the news, Fiona read it aloud, "A richdy stole a girl''s boyfriend and used


    that girl of being a third party!"


    The title was indeed eye-catching. On top of that, the scandalous way Fiona said it attracted the


    attention of nearly everyone inside the office. Those who were once busy at work soon took out their


    cellphones and looked for the post Fiona had just mentioned. ''There is a great deal of news about rich


    ladies. But now this is about a richdy who stole someone''s boyfriend. Interesting...'' Ashley thought.


    She continued to scroll through Fiona''s phone, only to find that all the posts on the forum were about


    how Lena had taken her boyfriend away from that girl.


    The most interesting part was that the one who had exposed that explosive news was the same as the


    last one.


    As all of them gaped at the content of the post, a new video had just been posted. Naturally, people


    clicked on it out of curiosity.


    As soon as the video was yed, those watching let out a shocked gasp, their eyes widening and their


    mouths agape. Curious as Fiona was, she clicked on the video. She merely had a glimpse of the video,


    and yet she loosened her grip on her cellphone from the overwhelming shock.


    Ashley responded swiftly and caught Fiona''s cellphone before it fell on the floor. Otherwise, Fiona


    might not be able to buy her favorite snacks in the next few days since she would have to buy a new


    phone.


    "Thank you, Ashley," Fiona said gratefully, patting the beads of sweat forming on her forehead. Still


    looking quite dazed, she took her phone from Ashley. The image of two naked bodies intertwined in


    zing passion lingered in her mind, making her even more confused.N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    As an innocent foodie who had never been in a rtionship, Fiona was ignorant of what was going on


    in the video.


    Ashley had caught a glimpse of the video as she returned Fiona''s phone. From what she had briefly


    seen, she realized immediately that it was Lena and her ex-boyfriend having sex in the video. She was


    certain of this because her foster sister had asked her to witness that very scene as it happened.


    What came as a surprise to Ashley was that Lena had even recorded it.


    ''No wonder they''re all in immense shock.


    They could see Raymond and Lena having sex clearly, '' Ashley thought in disdain.


    Ashleyforted the panic-stricken Fiona and escorted her to her seat. Upon returning to her desk,


    she opened herputer, and viewed the forum. Thements differed from the ones posted


    yesterday.


    There were still many negative posts but they were no longer about Ashley.


    A sardonic smile climbed up the corners of her lips. ''How would Lena react when she finds out about


    this?'' she wondered with a sneer.


    Her so-called hacker friend did give her a big surprise. ''He is really something. He was able to get his


    hands on this video. I''m impressed, '' she thought, nodding to herself approvingly.


    ...


    As soon as Lena entered the Luo Group''s building, she sensed that there was something different with


    the way her subordinates looked at her.


    In the past, she always received the gazes of admiration or jealousy from others.


    Today, they stared at her with dismissive and judging eyes- as if she had done something wrong or had


    walked into the building without clothes on.


    Lena was ufortable with the stares she had received. Rattled, she quickened her pace and


    entered her office.


    The first thing she did was get on herptop. She quickly opened thepany website and browsed


    through the forums. Upon reading the post and seeing the video, Lena was drivenpletely mad.


    With a loud grunt, she stood up and shove everything off her desk.


    Her chest heaved from the amount of anger she felt. With a trembling hand, she reached for her phone


    and called her assistant. "Tell Rita toe to my office right now!" she shouted furiously.


    Within moments, a woman in a red, sleeveless shirt came in. "Miss Mu, you were looking for me?" Rita


    inquired gingerly. The red hip wrap skirt she woreplimented her top nicely, entuating her


    hourss figure.


    The sight of Rita infuriated Lena. ''She is really a bitch, a seductress! She is always dressed this way.


    Who is she even trying to seduce?'' she seethed in contempt.


    Lena picked up a cup and threw it at Rita. Glowering at her, she bellowed, "You''re such a


    disappointment! How could you allow this to happen? Have you seen thements on the forum?"


    Rita dodged right in the nick of time, the cup shattering onto the floor with a loud smash.


    This made Lena even angrier. She went around her desk, grabbed whatever she could and threw it


    towards Rita.


    Anger red through Rita''s eyes.


    If she hadn''t acted quickly, she would have been hit right in the face with that cup! She could have


    been seriously hurt.


    Various objects kept flying towards Rita''s direction. In a heartbeat, she swiftly retreated to the door,


    shielding herself from the things Lena threw at her. Before she closed the door, Rita said in a cold tone,


    "You''d better check that post yourself, Miss Mu. I don''t know what''s going on. But the post author is


    you." With that, she closed the door behind her.


    Lena froze upon hearing her words.


    She returned to her seat, clicked the post and confirmed it for herself. It was in fact the ount that


    she had registered the other day.


    But she definitely did not post those stuff.


    She tried to log in, delete the video and post something to defend herself. But to her surprise, the


    password she created wasn''t working.


    Thinking that she might have failed to type the right password, she tried several other times but the


    results were the same.


    "Incorrect password!"


    "Incorrect password!"


    ...


    "Incorrect password! Damn it. What''s wrong with the stupid password?" Lena murmured, simmering


    with fury. As her rage devoured her, she lifted herptop over her head, attempting to throw it hard onto


    the ground.


    But eventuallymon sense got the better of her.


    After she calmed down, she registered several new ounts so that she could defend herself. "Those


    aren''t true. Ashley is the one to me. She is the third party!" shemented below the new post


    Fiona had shared with Ashley.


    She made somements to convince others that she hadn''t stolen anyone''s boyfriend, but soon


    someizens replied her with some harsh words.


    Since severalizens continued to speak ill of Ashley, some people in thepany started to suspect


    that those might be Lena''s new ounts.


    Some smart people dug out the truth and confirmed their suspicion. They started to attack Lena with


    scornful remarks on the forum.


    Facing the overwhelming negativements, Lena couldn''t stay in thepany any longer. She


    gathered her stuff and hurried out of her office. She headed straight for the Mu family''s residence in a


    bid to find her mother and snitch on Ashley.


    Whenever she was in trouble, she would turn to her mother for help.


    At noon, Ashley, Ellie and Fiona sat together as they ate their lunches.


    Settling her gaze on Ashley, Ellie praised her, "You''re amazing, Ashley! How did you do that?"


    Although the three had spected that the ount was Lena, Ellie couldn''t figure out why Lena would


    try to defend Ashley and even upload the video to prove Ashley''s innocence. In her eyes, it couldn''t be


    Lena''s doing since she hated Ashley with all her guts.


    Ellie was extremely curious to find out what was going on.


    "Well, it''s a secret!" Ashley gave Ellie a mysterious smile.


    "Is that so? Well done, Ashley Mu! Now you even keep things to yourself!" Ellie said in a menacing


    tone as she watched Ashley with a coy smile.


    "Well, Ellie, it''s my fault. But I can''t tell you here. There are so many people around here who could be


    listening in. I promise that I''ll fill you in at home, okay?" Ashley said with a smirk.


    It didn''t mean that Ashley was afraid of Ellie. The two shared everything with each other ever since


    they had gotten acquainted. Although they were not rted in anyway, they had bond thicker than


    blood.


    "So you did all of this, Ashley? I''m impressed," Fiona cut in, looking up at Ashley with her twinkling


    eyes, even raising her hand to give her a thumb-up.


    "Well, let''s eat. The food is getting cold. Cold food is not good for our health!" Ashley urged with a


    resigned expression as she saw Fiona stared at her with infinite admiration. The serious tone


    frightened Fiona slightly. Fiona let her eyes fall back to her food.
