Chapter 144: Marc hurriedly tried to mediate, desperation creeping into his voice.

Mr.

Lloyd, please, let me explain.

I didnt mean to spread any rumors, and Ms.

We just thought… maybe she was pulling a harmless prank.

However, at that moment, Kellan exuded an intimidating presence.

He had never imagined that a few ill-chosen words would cost him his job in an instant.

Allisons lip curled into a sneer.

She and Kellan had a knack for sizing people up.

It wasnt worth wasting time on blunt fools with loud mouths, but those who wore sweetness like a mask while sinking the knife in from behind those were the worst.

In some ways, Marc was no different than Melany.

Both hid behind others, pretending to be the virtuous ones, manipulating from the shadows like they were carved from the same deceitful mold.
