Thepany group chat fell silent. No one dared to speak up.
However, in the smaller private groups without any supervisors, things had already exploded.
[Did I read that right? Mr. Sumner said he’s pursuing N Kinsey?]
[I can’t believe it either, but that’s exactly what it says in his statement.]
[Wow, I’m so jealous…]
Some of the old–timers at Prospectus Technology couldn’t help but chime in with the gossip.
[Actually, Mr. Sumner went public with her a few years ago, but then she fell into the sea, and everyone thought she had died. No one expected her to reappear five yearster.]
[Is this N Kinsey the same person as N Jayston from before? I was shocked when I first saw her. They look practically identical. Could it be that she got stic surgery to look like N Jayston to seduce Mr. Sumner?]
[Who knows? We’re just here to watch the drama unfold.]
[Alright, enough gossiping. If this gets out, Mr. Sumner will definitely follow through on his threat to fire anyone talking behind the scenes.]
There was a moment of silence in theb as Tina looked at N with envy. “N, I never expected Mr. Sumner to be pursuing you.”
Brody scoffed. “See? Some people just know how to y their cards right, managing to get Mr. Sumner to
Before he could finish, he noticed Ruby pointing her phone’s camera at him.
“Ruby, what are you doing?!” he snapped.
Ruby smiled. “Go on, keep talking. I’m recording this to send to the groupter. Let’s see if you’ll be the first one to get fired for running your mouth.”
Brody’s gaze darkened instantly, ring at her like a snake ready to strike.
Ruby wasn’t afraid. She had had enough of Brody’s attitude for a while now.
She provoked, “What? You thinking of hitting me? A grown man who just loves to bully others. No wonder you’re in your 30s and still single–probably no woman wants a guy like you.”
“You!” Brody clenched his fists, his whole body tensing as if he were ready to attack at any moment.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
N stepped in, pulling Ruby behind her. “Brody, you’ve been stirring up trouble for no reasontely. I’ve told Ruby and Leon to put up with it, but if you keep pushing your luck, I’ll make sure you’re out of this
project.”
Brody red back. “Are you threatening me?”
“Take it however you want,” N shot back.
Just as the tension reached its peak, Sullivan’s voice came from the doorway. “What’s going on here? Why’s theb atmosphere so heavy so early in the morning?”
N turned to look at him, her expression cool. “Nothing, Sullivan, Since you’re here, let’s discuss the uing work arrangements.”
Noticing her cold attitude, Sullivan didn’t get angry.
He nodded and replied, “Alright.”
As he and N walked to the office, he exchanged a look with Brody, a warning evident in his eyes. If that idiot dared to mess up his ns, he wouldn’t let him off easily.
After discussing the work arrangements, Sullivan left.
N took out her phone, hesitated for a moment, and sent Damon a message asking why he did what he did.
After waiting for a while without receiving a response, she put her phone away and returned to work.
Around noon, Damon suddenly appeared outside theb.
At that time, N was monitoring a chemical reaction in one of theb’s instruments.
It wasn’t until Ruby nudged her that she noticed Damon standing outside, his gaze fixed on her, clearly
there to see <i>her</i>.
She handed her notebook to Ruby, instructing, “Take over recording for now. I’ll be back in a bit.” N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
