Chapter 615
Turning around, Liberty went back into the office. That colleague was still chatting away. happily with the others.
Liberty went straight to that person’s desk and only then did the colleague realize that Liberty had come back.
The woman was a bit overwhelmed by the embarrassment of being caught red–handed. while speaking badly behind someone’s
back.
“Do you have a crush on Mr. Lewis?”
Liberty’s words instantly made the girl’s face turn red.
“Of course not.”
She denied it.
“Then is it fascinating for you to spread rumors that Mr. Lewis and I have a secret affair? I heard the bitterness in your tone, so
it’s clear that you have a crush on Mr. Lewis. That’s why you’re always targeting me.
“Whether you believe me or not, I don’t have any interest in Mr. Lewis. I’m indeed divorced, but that’s because my husband
cheated on me. Was I supposed to keep him until the new year before divorcing him? Now that I’m divorced, do I have to be
subjected to rumors by you saying that I’m seducing Mr. Lewis?
“Mr. Lewis is an open and upright person. If there was anything going on between us, he would never hide it.”
Liberty looked at the lady coldly and added, “If I hear you talking nonsense again and creating rumors behind my back, I’ll sue
you for slander!”
She then turned on her heels and walked away.
The woman’s complexion shifted between the colors of red and white.
The others watched as Liberty strode off coldly. All of them heard what she said earlier. and felt as if Liberty was warning them
too.
There were too many rumors about her in the company.
If Liberty truly wanted to sue them for slander...
Liberty knocked on the door of Duncan’s office with a cold face.
“Is
your
face okay?” Duncan asked with concern when he saw the scratches on Liberty’s face had not completely disappeared.
“It’ll be fine in a couple of days. Thank you for your concern.”
Liberty stood two meters away from his desk.
“Have a seat,” Duncan told her to sit down.
Neither did Liberty speak, nor come closer. She merely stood there, looked at Duncan, and asked calmly, “Did you need me for
something?”
“Yes, well... I wanted to ask about your sister’s situation.”
“Seren?”
Liberty instinctively said, “Mr. Lewis, my sister is already married.”
Duncan was stunned before snapping to his senses and said, “Don’t misunderstand, Liberty. That’s not what I meant. I’m well
aware that your sister is a married woman, and that her husband is working at York Corporation. Our company has business
dealings with York Corporation, and I can say that Zachary and I are friends.
“The thing is, I talked shop with Zachary last night and at the end of the call, I mentioned the incident from yesterday evening.
Your brother–in–law seemed very angry because your sister did not tell him about it. I was worried the couple would fight
because I let slip what happened.
“I was so deeply upset that I couldn’t focus on my work, so I had to call you up to ask about the situation.”
Liberty paused, then said, “They should be fine. Seren was still sleeping when I came to work this morning. I think she’s fine.”
Duncan could not manage to get a full answer, so he could only say, “That’s good. You didn’t look very happy when you came in
earlier. Did you have a fight with your colleagues?”
He had a sharp eye.
Liberty’s face was cold when she came in.
She fell silent.
