Chapter 22 He Should Disappear

Chapter 22 He should disappear

Shelly was completely panicked! Lachlan sneered and reached out to pull her, "Miss Parry, move aside!"

Shelly shuddered and struggled desperately, blocking the door with all her might. "Mr. Willis, it's not my fault! The bug isn't mine; you can't accuse me of something I didn't do!"

She leaned against the door with her body and spoke in a slightly tearful voice.

"It doesn't matter what you say to me! Let Ms. Lowe decide if the bug is yours," Lachlan said expressionlessly.

As he spoke, he tried to pull Shelly away again.

Shelly grabbed onto Lachlan's hands tightly and then suddenly knelt down in front of him with a thud.

"Mr. Willis, please don't tell Ms. Lowe! Please!" she begged desperately.

"As long as you keep quiet about this, I'll promise you anything!"

As she spoke these words seductively while grabbing at Lachlan's hand towards her chest area, her eyes blinked coquettishly at him full of charm.

Lachlan sneered and directly threw off Shelly's hand, "Get lost! Ms. Lowe is my wife. I've tasted delicacies from all over the world; why would I drink dirty water?"

Upon hearing this remark from Lachlan, a flash of resentment crossed Shelly's eyes.

Dirty water? Was she really that disgusting? And what was he pretending for? It was not like anything happened between him and Miranda.

How could Miranda let him touch her?

But even though she thought this, she didn't dare say it out loud.

"Mr. Willis, please, I beg of you, don't tell the CEO! This bug isn't mine, I swear!" Shelly said tearfully.

Lachlan stared at her for a moment before asking, "Then tell me, besides you, who else could have touched your clothes?"

From Shelly's initial reaction to seeing the bug, it seemed like she really didn't know anything about it.

There was a traitor among them!

Upon hearing this news, Shelly thought for a moment before saying, "Rex Hussain! He's been Ms. Lowe's dedicated driver and bodyguard all along. As Ms. Lowe's bodyguard, he has to ensure her safety so when I go out with Ms. Lowe to discuss business matters he always checks my personal belongings too."

"He had the opportunity to tamper with my clothes!"

"That driver?" Lachlan narrowed his eyes and smirked.

The next second he held onto the bug and opened the office door again.

Shelly was startled once again upon seeing this and clung onto Lachlan's leg as she pleaded, "Mr. Willis, what are you going to do? Please don't say anything!"

"Do you think it's beneficial for you to keep this a secret? If you come clean now and let Ms. Lowe investigate, it'll benefit you too. Otherwise, one day you'll end up dead because of this. Who knows, if it blows up in the future, Rex might even use you as a scapegoat!" Lachlan said coldly.

Upon hearing this, Shelly blinked and thought about what Lachlan had said - he had a point.

"Mr. Willis, please speak up for me! You have to tell Ms. Lowe that I'm innocent! I'm also a victim!" Shelly pleaded.

"As long as you're truly innocent, Ms. Lowe won't implicate you," Lachlan replied calmly.

He then leaned down and grabbed Shelly's chin while saying, "By the way, remember to be polite to me from now on. Because I can expose all your dirty secrets! Black lace with an open crotch - Miss Parry, you're quite bold, aren't you?"

Shelly was stunned by his words before her face turned red with embarrassment and fear - did he really know everything?

After wiping away her tears, she stood up from the ground and quickly followed him out.

Lachlan put the bug into his pocket before heading towards the CEO's office where he saw someone standing guard outside - Rex!

The former driver who was now Miranda's bodyguard was playing with his phone when he noticed someone approaching him so he quickly put it away in his pocket. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Lachlan squinted, channeling a strand of dragon energy into his eyes as he glanced at Rex's pocket.

"What's up?"

Rex saw that the person approaching was Lachlan and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes. He asked indifferently, "What brings you here?"

"I have some business with my wife." Lachlan said calmly.

Hearing this, Rex couldn't help but laugh. "Kid, I call you Mr. Willis just to save face for Ms. Lowe. Do you really think you're someone important? What did you just call Ms. Lowe? Your wife? You can't even tell your own identity?"

"We got married under Ms. Lowe's witness, so she is naturally my wife! Move aside, I need to go in." Lachlan said coldly.

But Rex stopped him with one hand, "Ms. Lowe is working right now and doesn't allow anyone to disturb her!"

"Okay then, can you please inform her that I have urgent matters to discuss with her?" Lachlan said with a calm face.

"I already told you that Ms. Lowe is working and I cannot disturb her!" Rex sneered sarcastically in his speech filled with mockery and teasing tone.

At this moment, Shelly stood in the hallway, hesitated for a moment and chose to wait and see instead of coming over.

The argument between Lachlan and Rex immediately attracted some employees to stop and watch.

"What's going on?"

"It seems that Ms. Lowe's fiancé wants to see her, but was stopped by Rex!"

"Doing nothing all day long, still coming to disturb the CEO!"

"Haha, that's just being immature!!"

Listening to the employees' discussions, Rex's face became even more mocking.

"Mr. Willis, you said you have something important to talk about with the CEO? Then tell me what it is. If it really is urgent, I can let you in!"

He didn't believe Lachlan had anything important; he probably just wanted money from Miranda for his daughter's medical expenses again.

"It's not convenient to talk about it here!" Lachlan said.

"Not convenient? If there is something important, why can't you say it directly? Is it too embarrassing? Don't tell me... you want money from Ms. Lowe again?" Rex taunted.

Hearing this remark made by Rex caused the employees who were watching in the hallway burst into laughter instantly.

Everyone was looking at Lachlan with a disdainful expression, as if he were a freeloader.

"What's going on?" Just then, the door to the CEO's office opened.

Miranda walked out with her eyebrows slightly furrowed and asked.

"Mr. Willis wants to see you right now and says it's urgent. I asked him what it was about but he wouldn't say anything!" Rex had an innocent yet angry expression on his face as if everything was Lachlan's fault.

Miranda's face turned cold upon hearing this and she snapped at Lachlan, "What do you want that couldn't wait? You're disturbing my work!"

Her impression of Lachlan hadn't changed much since they first met; in her mind, he was just a puppet compared to Rex who had been working for the Lowe family for years and had been by her side for over a year now.

"Of course I have something important! This guy should disappear from your side!" Lachlan pointed at Rex and said in a deep voice.
