Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 203: Playing the Game Well

Alison had just overheard Heather's conversation, and she could think of everything Heather could. The reason she didn't bother with those posts was that she wasn't worried at all; let those nosy people dig all they want.

No matter the outcome, it wouldn't genuinely harm her. It was all a farce, and Alison's daring to expose this matter involving Magnus showed that her intentions were not only for herself but also included Magnus. Such a clever woman, indeed-using one stone to kill two birds.

But Alison thinking she could play this game in the workplace was laughable. Aurora was dominating the scene when Alison was probably still playing in the mud.

"Alison, if you really want to play, then I'll join you. But don't cry if you lose," Aurora said with a smirk curling her lips. Her smile was like a blooming rose, radiant and beautiful, yet thorny and unapproachable.

Alison had thought Aurora would be hiding somewhere crying after such an incident, but here she was, calmly standing in front of her. Aurora's eyes were playful, as if the incident hadn't affected her but rather amused her. What a woman!

Alison tried to look imposing. "We'll see who ends up crying. The higher-ups will soon notice this mess."

"Heh, let's wait and see then. If you're seeking your demise, I'll gladly facilitate it," Aurora said, a cold smirk playing on her lips as she walked away elegantly with Heather hurrying after her.

"Manager, aren't you scared?" Heather was a bit frightened herself; Alison clearly had lost it and who knew what she might do next.

Aurora snorted, "Even if Mr. Montgomery and I were nothing, could she bring me down with just those photos?"

"That may be true, but words can be terrifying, manager. Be careful," Alison warned.

"I know. Let's go eat; I'm starving," Aurora said nonchalantly as they headed to the cafeteria.

"Oh, okay," Heather obediently followed.

"By the way, do you have any photos of Paul and Alison together?" Aurora had warned her, but since Alison insisted on challenging her, they might as well play this game thoroughly.

"I don't, but I heard someone does. If you want, I can get them for you," Heather said, even more excited than Aurora to strike back.

Seeing Alison's shameless face had even angered the typically mild-mannered Heather; she couldn't let Alison off easily.
