Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)

Chapter 496 I Can't Come Back

I wondered if my chuckle was too offensive. In any case, Mr. Finnley's expression changed dramatically.

Meanwhile, Anne sneered and said, "Look what the cat dragged in. It's you, Rinatta! It seems to me that you don't actually want to leave the company. After all, you didn't even finish your design!"

I sneered the same way she did. "Isn't it obvious? I had no idea that I would be falsely accused and fired. Look, not even the whole team can get the job done. How do you expect me to finish it alone, then?" I gave Mr. Finnley a sarcastic look. "If that's the case, I'll be taking my leave."

Just as I was about to turn around and leave, Mr. Finnley hurried over and gripped my hand.

"I know you came back for the project, Rinatta. You have no intention of bringing the police into this matter, do you?"

"Police? What's going on?" Jack's voice rose in the air before three minutes were up. He rested his gaze on Mr. Finnley's hand, which was firmly gripping mine.

At the next moment, Mr. Finnley instinctively let go of my hand.

I looked at Jack, feeling somewhat speechless. Hadn't we agreed that I would have a few minutes to do my thing?
