Chapter 66 A Shameless Woman (1/2)

”What do I mean?” Eva sneered and raised one of her eyebrows, ”I was kind enough to be friendly with you. I even treated you as my best friend despite the fact that you took Zed away from me. But you didn't cherish him. Jean, you hurt Zed and damaged his reputation. Now you come to his company to cause more trouble. Do you have a conscience?”

”What do you mean?” He stared at the display in the elevator, frustrated with the elevator's slow descent. He futilely willed the elevator to move quicker. Zed's expression grew more gloomy with each passing floor.

”It was not easy for us to resolve the PR crisis with the Li Group. The Weibo incident caused by Mrs. Qi hasn't settled either. I believe everyone will be curious to see how you handle this situation. Will you leave her to defend hers

When her boyfriend betrayed her, all light and joy was gone from Cherry’s life. Deserted, bereft of hope, she married a man that she had barely met, but she had never expected him to be her ex-boyfriend’s uncle.
