Chapter 118 Lily was a bad-mouthing bitch
Quentin had started to change since Vivian came to work in the company.
Amanda had no idea that Vivian was Joey’s sister at the time, because they rarely spoke to each other
in the office. Apart from the surname, they couldn't be less similar to each other in every respect,
including appearance and personality. Thus Amanda hadn’t suspected a thing about their relationship.
“What?”
Joey was shocked again. Suddenly it crossed her mind that she had seen Vivian making out with a
man in the stairwell during lunch break the other day. Was it Quentin?
She had no evidence sufficient to tell anyone else.
Amanda said, “It’s just my suspicion. It’s not necessarily Vivian who he’s cheating with. Anyway, please
keep an eye on him. I wouldn’t forgive him if it’s true. I’ll divorce him if he’s cheating on me. I have my
pride.”
Amanda looked at Amanda in a daze. She was reminded of herself several months ago when she had
to pretend to be strong on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
“All right, Amanda, I’ll keep an eye on them.”
Amanda promised her in an apologetic tone, because she was very sorry that the home wrecker was
actually her own sister.
After leaving Amanda’s office, Joey went back to her desk to collect her things.
The transfer notice was soon posted on the bulletin of the company.
The HR officer Lily approached Joey with a big smile on her face, “Joey, congratulations! It’s a position
that most of us would kill for. You’ve managed to get the job in a month. You’re really something!”
Annoyed by these sarcastic remarks, Joey looked up at Lily’s smiling face and said, “I’m under the
impression that you’re the happiest one in the company to hear the news of my new position. Do you
think Amanda will promote you to the administrative director after I’m gone?”
Lily put on a frigid smile when Joey was reading her mind. She raised her eyebrows and said
indifferently, “Yes, I do. But what would do you do about it? You’re leaving and you’d better stop being
so overbearing with me. You’re not my boss.”
Joey shook her head and smiled, “I’ve never been overbearing with you. I only respect a respectable
person. Lily, I’m kindly reminding you that, if you continue to be so mean and selfish, I bet you’re not
even getting a promotion in two years.”
Although Amanda hadn’t told her about her replacement, Joey knew very well that Lily would never be
a candidate for the position.
Lily was a senior employee in the company, but she was careless and not fully committed to her work.
Besides, she was selfish, jealous and mean. She should be grateful that she hadn’t been fired yet. A
promotion was apparently out of her reach.
She was neither sensible nor dedicated enough to be rewarded. In fact, it was just her wishful thinking.
Lily couldn’t care less about Joey’s well-intended admonition. She even believed that Joey was
laughing at and lecturing her. She snorted, ready to fight back. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Just then, Leonard, whose desk was right behind Joey’s, couldn’t stand it anymore. He got up and said,
“Joey, have you collected your things? May I help you?”
“No, thanks. It’s not heavy at all. I can manage it myself.”
Joey smiled and declined his offer of help. She had been getting on very well with Leonard in the past
few days. As Amanda’s administrative assistant, his work had involved interactions with Joey on many
matters. Therefore, they had become quite familiar with each other.
“Joey, I’m helping you.”
He insisted and picked up Joey’s box. They went to the General Manager Office shoulder to shoulder.
Lily was shocked and angry.
However, she didn’t dare to lose her temper in the presence of Leonard, because she had a secret
crush on this handsome young man.
Three years older than Leonard, Lily thought she was pretty enough for him.
It was just that Leonard wasn’t interested in her at all, thus she hadn’t made a confession to him.
Yet tomorrow is another day. Who knows what would happen?
