Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

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.

Clarke is not that kind of person.

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

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

Who do you think youre fooling? Kellans voice was sharp, laced with contempt.

Your little tricks are transparent! Youre a mediocre worker, but youre a pro at stabbing your colleagues in the back.

Theres been word that you were the one stirring up trouble at the recent inter-company conference.

Fire him now! Marcs face turned pale.

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.
