Regardless, my feelings of sympathy toward her did not make me hate her any less as I still remembered how she kept picking a fight with me.

Meanwhile, Michael kept me company every day in and out of work. Although the nature of our relationship was a thorn in both our sides, I was satisfied with what I had.

One day, Emma showed up in front of the office building the moment I came out. Judging by the way she was standing in my path, it didn’t take a genius to figure out that she was here to cause trouble.

Michael had left the office early in the afternoon to discuss an important project, so Emma was obviously here for me.

“You’re in my way, Ms. Jones,” I said coldly with a frown.

“I think we really need to talk, Ms. Garcia.”

Emma had the same old vicious look in her eyes when she looked at me, and that ruined her otherwise beautiful appearance.

“I don’t think there’s anything for us to talk about, Ms. Jones. You’ve stated your point twice now, and I believe I have made myself very clear as well. I suggest you stop wasting your time.”

Emma’s probably trying to threaten me into leaving Michael again, just like she did on both of our previous encounters, but I’m not about to give in to her threats!

Emma’s eyes lit up with rage when she saw how stubborn I was. She then glanced behind me and broke into a sinister grin as she threatened me, “Ms. Garcia, are you sure you want to be talking about your affair with Mr. Shaw here where all of your colleagues can hear us? What would they think if they find out you’re sleeping with your CEO?”
