Chapter 283 - Fake girlfriend (4) (2/2)
”What on earth is she thinking? How does she think this will end?” JoAnna was really frustrated.
”I don't think she is thinking far with this... Maybe she hopes for a promotion. If her boss believes that she is CEO's squeeze, she might get promoted just because her boss wants to get points from the CEO... and of course, there are bragging rights for getting her hands on a man who was untouchable so far.”
”I feel like smashing her to bits!” JoAnna said through her teeth. She didn't like women who would use these methods to advance. And this one was even lying about it... and lying about Jeff! How dare that woman use Jeff to advance her image and career?
”Oh, I thought I'm the one with temper... but you know, that is not your style.” Sarah reminded JoAnna that she is not the one to start a fight. JoAnna is the one who would avoid fight at any cost.
JoAnna exhaled. ”I know. I will handle this my way.”
”Will there be a show to watch?”
”Five o'clock. Main entrance of your office building.”
”Oho! I will be there!” Sarah was excited.
”Sis, can you send me photo of that woman?”
Sarah took less than five seconds to forward Martha's photo to JoAnna. ”Done.”
JoAnna ended the call and looked at Martha's photo. 'How can she impersonate me? Except for hair color we are nothing alike...'
JoAnna walked to the front door. ”Hello!”, she greeted four bodyguards who greeted her back. ”Just to let you know that in half an hour we are heading out. I need to do some shopping, and then will go to White corp. Jeff told me that you will accompany me.”
Four men nodded in unison.
After confirming with bodyguards, JoAnna felt at ease, and went inside to get ready for the outing.
…
At White corp. on fifteenth floor, three women approached Martha. ”We want to let you know that we will be there... to support you.”
”What?” Martha was confused.
”Today, five o'clock... we heard it.”
”Heard what?” Martha didn't understand what is going on.
”Wah! How modest! You still want to keep it a secret for his sake?!!” One woman exclaimed. ”We already heard that Boss will meet with his girlfriend, today at five. Main entrance hallway...”
Martha felt like she is going to faint.
Woman continued talking. ”I knew that he will not be able to keep your relationship secret for long. Especially after photos got published in the magazine. I guess after today we should call you Mrs. CEO.” The women giggled.
Martha felt that she can't breathe. 'What is going on? What girlfriend at five o'clock...?' Her head was spinning. The thought hit her: 'Did CEO White find out and wants to expose me?' Then she thought that even if that is the case, what can she do? All these women think that she will be announced as CEO's girlfriend at five o'clock today… On the other hand, he did smile at her during that presentation. What if he does want to tell everyone that she is his girlfriend?
