Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 60 Was That Your Daughter?

“Don’t fret, Secretary Mu, hang on, or should I say ‘Mrs. Lu’? It’s been a while.”

Xia Shaner fixed her hair alluringly as she spoke.

Mu Zhi glanced at her, “Whatever you want to say, please do it quickly, there’s nothing much to catch up on between the two of us.”

When she worked as Lu Jinye’s secretary, out of all the rumored girlfriends Lu Jinye had, Xia Shaner was the fastest she managed to get rid of.

Moreover, the woman was purely flirting with him. There was no interaction between them except Mu Zhi informing her to stay away from Lu Jinye.

“Were you feeling smug when you told me to stay away from Lu Jinye in the first place? To kick me out as his actual wife?”

“I was just doing my job, as Lu Jinye’s secretary, I was responsible to handle his relationships.”

“Hoho, are you as honorable as you make yourself out to be?”

Xia Shaner chuckled.

Mu Zhi was confused by her chuckle.

“What do you want from me?”

“I hope you will apologize to me in public!”

“Huh?”

Mu Zhi instinctively thought she had heard wrong. “Miss Xia, why should I apologize to you?”

She could not comprehend.

Xia Shaner responded boldly, “Because not only did you make Lu Jinye break up with me, but you also made me lose my job.”

“I’m not that influential.”

Mu Zhi figured there must be a misunderstanding lying somewhere. Or perhaps Xia Shaner was trying to extort her.
