Revenge is best served cold

Chapter 264 It'll Be Quite Hasty

Jeremiah and Elsa might've been extremely unhappy about Mr. Simpson's decision, but they still had to accept it. They left the room with a dejected expression on their faces.

Mr. Simpson saw it and scoffed disdainfully. He looked at me condescendingly. "What's your name?"

"I'm Jane Brown, the vice president of Brown Group." I lowered my head submissively and responded softly.

Mr. Simpson nodded and fell into deep thought. After a brief moment, he suddenly spoke up, and his eyes sparkled with curiosity. "That was Jeremiah Cornell, the general manager of Cornell Group, right?"

I nodded. "Exactly. I didn't think you'd know him since you very rarely go outside."

Mr. Simpson cleared his throat. "Keeping tabs on gossip is something I love to do when I have some time on my hands."

I did know about it from my past life. It was just that I tended to talk to Mrs. Simpson most of the time. So, I didn't quite fully grasp just how gossipy he could be.

Mr. Simpson noticed that I wasn't put off, and he continued, "If memory serves me right, you two were married. Are you two divorced now?"

I giggled. It looked like the old timer didn't keep tabs on the latest news.
