Unexpected Encounter with my Boss

Chapter 11

Sitting at her desk, Tiffany stared at the computer screen. But her mind was in a mess. Thinking back, she still found what had happened just now unbelievable.

This was the first time in her life that someone had protected her the way Teresa would. It wasn't just that; the person who had protected her turned out to be the same man with whom she'd slept. Yet, the person who had protected her was a man she had slept with before. She was touched.

She could hear Ivy sobbing nearby. She was surrounded by a few female colleagues, who were comforting her.

"Don't be sad, Ivy. It's ruining your makeup."

"That's right, Ivy. Mr. Lewis didn't actually say anything bad about you. You're the prettiest and most capable one among us. How would Mr. Lewis have the heart to scold you?"

Ivy looked up and saw Tiffany. She glared at Tiffany hard. "So what if I'm the prettiest and most capable one here? It would be no match for some cunning women anyway!"

Everyone turned to give Tiffany questioning looks. They were probably trying to guess what her relationship with Vincent was.

The door to the CEO's office opened. Vincent walked out of the office, followed by Alex.

With just a glance from Vincent, those who were gathered around Ivy instantly dispersed and went back to their desks.

Teary-eyed, Ivy stared at Vincent.

On top of being good-looking, she came from a decent family too. She was very popular in the office. Her teary eyes made her seem pitiful. She was confident that Vincent would certainly fall for her if he just looked at her. But Vincent didn't even glance at her. Instead, his eyes fell on Tiffany, who was in the farthest corner.

"Tiffany." The moment Vincent called out to her, it attracted everyone's attention.

Tiffany stood up. Her honest and guileless demeanor made Vincent's heart ache.

He had never really paid attention to departmental affairs. But ever since the camping trip, it felt like something kept drawing him to Tiffany.

"Grab your laptop and follow me." After saying that, Vincent headed for the elevator.

Under everyone's gazes, Tiffany followed him with her head hung low.
