Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Chapter 615 Just Friends

Charlize could tell that Charles was going to go after Jacqueline. He had shown her mercy once when they were in the second year of university, but even after graduating from university, Jacqueline was still the same as ever. If she were to still put in a good word for Jacqueline, she would be a saint and a fool.

Moreover, Charles was not holding her accountable for her late return. Charlize was not an idiot. If she were to stick around any longer, Charles might change his mind about her late return and start chiding her.

There was no need for Charlize to bring disaster upon herself for a woman who always talked bad about her, so she swiftly made herself scarce.

Charles was quick to exact his revenge. On Monday, Jacqueline returned to the office, hoping that Charles was only joking back on Saturday night.

Alas, at noon, her department supervisor summoned her for a talk. He did not say anything too specific—he just subtly asked her how she came to know Charlize and talked about things unrelated to work before asking her about the new program evaluation.

The program evaluation did not work well in practice. Initially, Prosperity Enterprise was not too keen on working with the other company, and Jacqueline was equally unwilling when the company’s collaboration ended up in her hands. After all, no matter how well she did the evaluation, the company still would not invest in it. At the end of the day, she would only be wasting her time and efforts.

Therefore, when someone offered her money to make the program evaluation seem better, Jacqueline only hesitated for a brief while before accepting the bribe.

It was a company that Prosperity Enterprise was not keen on, anyway. No matter how wonderfully or terribly she wrote the evaluation, no one would spend their time reading it.

On the other hand, if she changed some of the data before handing in the report, she would receive a hundred thousand. It was a simple yet fruitful opportunity that would rarely come by.

It had been over a year since Jacqueline began working at Prosperity Enterprise, and she was not the only one who had made alterations to the data. Furthermore, the higher-ups showed no interest in investing in the program, so she thought she would get away with the incident.

Unfortunately, luck was not on her side, and she bumped into Charlize.

Charles could easily find ways to fire her, and that evaluation had become the leverage against her.

Now, all the department head had done was throw the evaluation report on the table with a stern look, and Jacqueline already knew that she was doomed.

She had been caught.

How unlucky I am!

Of course, Jacqueline still thought that it was purely her ill luck that had gotten her in trouble—she did not think that she had done anything wrong.
