A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 9

I looked up and saw Edward Xi. His eyes were gloomy, from which I could see a judgment. Probably because I came to the hospital, he thought I was going to hurt Betty Fang again.

I felt ridiculous for myself. I just solved the problem of work for Edward, and he immediately came to the hospital to accompany Betty.

Was it I who sent Edward to Betty by my own hand?

I had thought of telling the truth to Edward to let him know that Betty was a b*tch. But I knew that I couldn't say, or I would be more embarrassed.

Mom asked me to bring her chicken soup, I answered, I'm a little tired so I rest here for a while, I'm ready to go into the ward now."

"Are you ill?" After hearing my explanation, Edward looked a little better and suddenly asked.

"No, no." Edward's words made me nervous. How could he care about me?

"You don't look well, might catch a cold. Give me the chicken soup, you go back and rest." Edward said in a deep voice, "...Betty is weak. Don't pass it on to her."

The first half of the sentence made my heart beat faster, but the second half made me almost forget to breathe. I opened my mouth and couldn't say a word.

It turned out that it was just my wishful thinking. After the 15th day of the new year, my resume got an answer from Amy Lin's company.

Time Group let me go there for interviews.

During the interview, the process was very simple, but I felt that it was perfunctory.

What they asked me the most was to confirm whether the studio " Tail of Iris1' was made by me alone and asked me about the design idea of several drafts.

I almost got angry. Since you don't trust me, why do you talk with me?

But I still patiently explained it to them over and over again.

Because it was Amy who recommended this job for me, I could not make things difficult for her.

After the interview, I was very disappointed and always felt that I couldn't pass. Because the eyes of the interviewers showed a meaning of justice.

I hate this kind of expression in their eyes.

Because it was the kind of eyesight that Edward looked at me.

I waited for Amy to get off work outside the company. Whether I passed or not, I had to thank her, so I asked her out.

But while I was waiting, I received a call from the Time Group!

"Congratulations, Ashley, you have passed the interview of our president. Please..." The sweet voice of the personnel staff came out. I didn't hear anything clearly in the following words, but I knew that I had passed the interview!

"Wait, you said, your president is one of the interviewers?" I was stunned.

Although I didn't have much experience, I knew that it is impossible to face the president for the first interview.

What was going on?

Did Amy help me? Or did the president see my resume and find out that I was a talent?

I was a little happy.

"Yes." The personnel manager gave me a positive answer.

Hanging up the phone, I breathed a sigh of relief. No matter how complicated the process was, at least I got work, and worries in my heart had been relieved.

After Amy got off work, we met and went to the shopping mall together, prepared to have dinner in the restaurant upstairs.

Along the way, I couldn't wait to tell her the news of my successful interview. Once I started to say, I couldn't stop and shook hands excitedly.

I couldn't help but turn around and saw that Edward seemed to have noticed me and glanced in this direction.

I took Amy's hands and fled in confusion.

When I went to the Time Group to register. I didn't expect that my position was the deputy director of the design department, and also the chief designer of the time group!

This made me puzzled. But no one could tell me why when I asked about what was going on, they just told me that it was the direct decision of the president.

Moreover, the president had gone abroad and was not at home for the time being.

I suppressed my doubts and began working.

My mother-in-law was finally suspicious about my going out early and returning late every day.

One day, I was about to discuss a case with a client when my mother-in-law stopped me. "Ashley, what have you been doing recently? Why can't I see you all day?" She narrowed her eyes and stared at me.

I said in panic, " My...mother doesn't feel well recently."

My mother- in- law looked at me gloomily. "To be honest, have you had the other man outside? Hmm?"

"Mom, I don't." Mother- in- law's accusation humiliated me a little. I was just working outside. Why should I bear this kind of charge?

My mother-in-law restrained herself and sneered, "I don't think you dare. You'd better not do anything disgraceful to our family. Otherwise, I'll give you a lesson."

I looked at my mother- in- law and nodded repeatedly.

My mother-in-law didn't care about me and went to the beauty salon. I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

Then I rushed to the place where the client and I already discussed. When we were discussing which design to choose, the voice of Edward suddenly appeared above my head.
