Chapter 12: Wicked Thoughts

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When he noticed that Laurie was in a daze, Beebo coughed lightly behind her. Only then did Laurie come back to her senses and start clapping with her colleagues.

Not surprisingly, Beebo knew Jose and knew a thing or two about Jose and Laurie’s past.

When he received the notice in the morning that there was no hope of promotion, Beebo was still a little depressed. However, he never expected that the person who replaced him would be Jose.

As he saw that the expression on Laurie’s face was somewhat stiff, Beebo said softly, “Don’t let other people affect your mood to work.”

Laurie turned back to look at Beebo gratefully, then nodded vaguely.

At this moment, the interaction between these two was clearly seen by Jose up in front.

He looked at Laurie with a slightly ominous gaze. After breaking up, this woman didn’t cry or make a fuss. She even married someone else in a flash. Now, her face was actually so rosy and she was in a good state. She was really a heartless woman!

After introducing Jose, the supervisor very attentively showed him to his office.

“What else do you think this office is lacking? I’ll get someone to prepare it immediately.” The smile on the supervisor’s face never once faded.

Jose looked at the huge office. It was filled with a solid wood desk and chairs, as well as leather sofas. It was indeed impressive.

In particular, when he saw the nameplate on the desk with the words, “Department Manager Jose,” his mood improved a lot.

“Not at the moment. I’ll let you know if anything comes to mind.”

He knocked on the back of the chair and said, “Send me a copy of the information of the department’s employees. Also, let the employee standing in the middle just now be my secretary first. Someone has to serve me coffee.”

The supervisor knew that Jose was the future son-in-law of the chairman, so he naturally obeyed everything Jose instructed.

He nodded quickly and said, “Sure, sure. Are you referring to Laurie? She’s still a scriptwriter’s assistant and isn’t busy with work. She can be your secretary without any problem.”

Laurie was beautiful and gentle. Indeed, everyone liked her. The supervisor did not think there was anything wrong with Jose asking for her.

A somewhat creepy smile appeared on Jose’s lips.

As soon as Laurie returned to her seat, she was called to the office by the supervisor.

“Just now, Jose said that he wants you to be his secretary for now.”

Without waiting for the supervisor to finish, Laurie immediately said, “No!”

“No?” The supervisor was a little annoyed. “Don’t think that you can refuse to listen to me just because you will become an official scriptwriter next month!

“Do you know who he is? He’s the boyfriend of the chairman’s daughter. The chairman only has one daughter. Perhaps Jose will be the chairman’s successor in the future!”

The supervisor softened his voice again. “Don’t worry. He knows his status and definitely won’t do anything to you. It’s just serving him coffee for two days. I will get him a full-time secretary as soon as possible. How about you stick to it until you become an official scriptwriter?”

When Laurie heard the supervisor using the opportunity to become an official scriptwriter to threaten her, there was only one thought in her mind, “Resign!”

However, when she thought about how hard it was for her to become an official scriptwriter, she decided to endure it.

Wasn’t it just a few days? She would just bear with it and it would be over soon.

When he saw Laurie nodding, the supervisor smiled again. “That’s the right spirit! Go make some coffee and send it to him now. He won’t make things too difficult for you. After all, I’m still around, aren’t I?”

Laurie silently rolled her eyes at the supervisor in her heart, then went out to make coffee.

As she stood at the door of the manager’s office, Laurie mentally prepared herself repeatedly before finally knocking on the door.

To her surprise, she heard a female voice. “Come in!”

Laurie opened the door and saw a beautiful woman sitting on the sofa leaning against Jose.

This woman had auburn hair and a sexy figure. She was wearing a dress with cut-outs that accentuated her voluptuous breasts.

As if she was declaring her sovereignty, she held Jose’s arm and interlocked her fingers with his. Then she looked at Laurie provocatively. “So you’re Laurie? Nice to meet you. I’m Anna.”

Anna didn’t stand up but looked up at Laurie with disdain.

Jose looked a little embarrassed. “Put the coffee down. You can go out first.”

Laurie nodded and put the coffee on the desk.

Just as she was about to leave, Anna stopped her.

“Wait a minute.” Anna picked up the coffee and took a sip. “As expected of your ex-girlfriend. She knows your preferences so well?”

She turned to Jose with an unfriendly expression. “Black coffee with milk and no sugar. No wonder you want her to be your secretary.”

“No, that’s not it!” Jose quickly explained, “She was the one who brought the coffee in. I didn’t ask her to come in. She made the decision herself!”

Upon hearing his explanation, Anna’s expression eased a little.

Then she said with displeasure, “Laurie, I’m warning you. Don’t have any wicked thoughts about my man!”
