Bella’s POV:

Linda reached out and touched her forehead. She was very anxious. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

I thought for a few seconds and said, “Linda, you misunderstood me. I never wanted to compete with you.” “You never wanted to compete with me, but now everything I want has been taken away by you.” After that, Linda began to pack up her things in frustration. “Linda, what are you doing?” “What am I doing? Of course I am going to quit,” Linda answered very angrily. Hearing this, I hesitated for a moment, then grabbed the box on the desk and said anxiously, “Linda, the general manager just said he would promote me to be the deputy general manager next month, but he didn‘t ask me for my opinion.” “Are you going to give up the position of deputy general manager?” Linda said disdainfully. “I will really give up the position of deputy general manager,” I said firmly. Hearing this, Linda stared at me for a moment in confusion and said, “Bella, although I hate you very much, I have nothing to say if you really become the deputy general manager. But if you play tricks on me, I, Linda, am not easy to bully.” Hearing Linda‘s harsh words, I said very sincerely, “Linda, I‘m not a fool. Do you think I have no idea why the general manager wants me to be the deputy general manager? Because of Herbert? If I really become the deputy general manager, should I often ask him to do something for our company in the future? Although he is the president of the Wharton Group, he can‘t decide many things by himself. I don‘t want to put him in a difficult position.” “So I won‘t be the deputy general manager, and I‘ll resign at the end of this month.”

“Are you telling the truth?” Linda was still a little uncertain. I pursed my lips into a smile and said, “In the future, 14 be the wife of President Wharton. Do you think I will be after the position of a deputy general manager? Don‘t worry, the general manager will withdraw his order soon.”

After that, I patted Linda on the shoulder and walked out of the office. Later, I went back to find the general manager and told him that my ability was limited. I was not qualified to have such a high position

as the deputy general manager. I should learn for a while longer in my current position before I got promoted. Otherwise, it would be very embarrassing if I made a fool of myself. Of course, the general manager was very surprised. At first, he tried to persuade me. He only stopped after he saw how firm I was. As soon as I walked out of the general manager‘s office, 1 slapped my face. How could I give up such a good opportunity to be promoted to the position that everyone wanted? But it was not meant for me. It was useless to think too much. I devoted myself to work after that. In the next two days, I finally figured out what was going on.

It turned out that one of my colleagues saw that Herbert and I got into the same car, and she bumped into Connor once, so she deliberately tried to trick Connor. Connor naturally clarified that he had nothing to do with me and said that I was Herbert’s wife.

Then the colleague told everyone in the company.

The scandal between me and Connor had already troubled me for a long time. It was a good thing now that everything was clarified.

But what happened next made me unable to withstand it. Since I refused the good intention of the general manager to be promoted to the deputy general manager, the general manager began to care about me very much.

He would send someone to send fresh fruits every day, and there were other specialties from all over the world for me, and my salary was doubled up at the end of the month.

In the beginning, things were fine, but gradually, even my colleagues treated me differently. Everyone was very polite to me, as if they were treating a guest. I was here to work and learn.

I was not here to be a guest.

Moreover, my colleagues didn‘t chat with me. Even if they chat with me, they seemed to be worried that they might say something wrong. Even if I made a mistake at work, no one pointed it out to me. Everyone was speaking hypocritical words.

This made me very uncomfortable.

That night, I put my arms around Herbert‘s neck and said coquettishly, “Herbert, I‘m going to resign.” Herbert asked, “Why are you resigning?” Of course, I noticed that he was not focused when he was talking to me, but I didn‘t expose him. “The general manager doubled up my salary. It is said that he will give me a raise again in the future.” “Isn’t that a good thing? You should be happy to have a higher salary.” Herbert twitched his mouth. “Of course, it‘s a good thing to have a high salary, but I hope that he gave me the money because did a good job instead of any other reason,” I said. “He was willing to give it to you. You didn‘t force him.” Herbert smiled. I pursed my lips and said, “I feel that I‘m only going to the company to be flattered by others instead of working.”
