After the divorce, he begged
Chapter 69
The next day at the company, Rebecca presented her plan to the team. Besides herself, four more participants were needed. She shared the prepared script with them.
As she had anticipated, the four participants were quickly found. Jane submitted the program roster.
After that, Rebecca resumed her work. During a restroom break, she coincidentally encountered Lisa while washing her hands.
Lisa greeted her, and Rebecca nodded in acknowledgment.
Lisa moved closer, eyeing their reflections in the mirror. “I went home last night and got a big sip of tea,” she said.
Rebecca responded earnestly, missing the implication, “Was it sweet?”
“Not that kind of tea,” Lisa said. She glanced around before whispering, “It’s about Andrea’s secret.”
Rebecca paused, and almost instantly her guard shot up. She recalled Jessica’s warning of being wary of those who traded secrets for friendship.
“Do you know what’s going on between Andrea and Mr. Hanson?” Lisa asked quietly.
Rebecca wiped her hands with a tissue while answering casually, “They’re secretary and CEO, and the whole department knows about it.” Then, she turned to walk away.
“I meant their personal relationship.” Lisa blocked her path subtly.
“No idea,” Rebecca said and strode out before Lisa could continue.
Back at her desk, Rebecca focused on work, pretending nothing happened. Though Lisa tried to spill the tea several times, Rebecca kept declining with “I’m busy.”
Lisa caught the cold shoulder. When the lunch break started, she hung back on purpose, hoping to talk to Rebecca alone. “Rebecca, did I say something that upset you?” Lisa asked.
“What?” Rebecca looked genuinely confused.
“You barely answered me all morning.” Lisa looked embarrassed. “I sometimes speak without thinking. If 1 said anything that rubbed you the wrong way, please don’t take it to heart.”
