The Ex and Her Riches

At that moment, Whitney was completely engrossed in her work, oblivious to the changes in his facial expression.

After an hour, Whitney finally finished categorizing all the files, a thin layer of sweat covering her body.

“Mr. Newton, I have everything organized.”

Looking at the neatly stacked piles of documents on the floor, Charles couldn’t help but chuckle to himself. With his hand covering his mouth, he said. “You may leave now.”

What? Seriously? He’s telling me to leave just like that? He’s not even checking? Shock and a hint of helplessness filled Whitney’s gaze. So, there was no need to rush this matter after all?

She stole a glance at Charles, who was barely containing his laughter, and suddenly realized she had been pranked! He’s doing it on purpose! He must enjoy seeing me struggle!

Even though she was aware of that, Whitney didn’t dare to resist. After all, she was just a powerless and penniless assistant. All she could do was lower her head and walk out of the office.

She had barely taken a moment to rest that afternoon. As soon as she returned to her workstation, she slumped down in exhaustion.

As the days passed, Whitney became more accustomed to managing everything in the CEO’s office.

Enduring his teasing and banter from time to time, Whitney began to feel a sense of anticipation in her daily life.

As she spent more time with him, the fear she once felt began to fade. She even found the courage to resist him from time to time.

She suddenly found herself really enjoying her current job, and she also liked the way they were getting along.

“Mr. Newton, I’ve prepared a cup of cappuccino for you. Please taste it and see if it suits your palate.”

Placing the coffee on his desk, Whitney swiftly exited the room, a triumphant smirk playing on her lips..

“Whitney Mellor!” The moment the office door closed, Charles’ furious voice could be heard from inside. She actually dared to put salt in the cappuccino! She’s really got some nerve!
