The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 196

Vivian bought a new suit of clothes in a store to replace her torn clothes.

She looked at her red and swollen face in the mirror. Her scalp hurt very much. She ground her teeth resentfully.

She felt so badly wronged.

She hadn’t seduced Lawrence. Lawrence had tried to tempt her instead.

She had gone to work as usual today. Lawrence suddenly called her to his office in this morning.

She walked into Lawrence’s office with butterflies in her stomach.

Lawrence was slouching back in the chair with no expression on his handsome and cold face. He just stared at her.

Vivian was intimidated by his stare. It took her a while to work up the courage to ask him carefully, “Mr. Charles, is there anything I can do for you?”

Lawrence said coldly, “I heard Amanda is suing Quentin for divorce lately because of you?

Vivian trembled with fear when she heard the accusation. She suddenly looked up at Lawrence, “Mr. Charles, I…I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

She had no idea how Lawrence had gotten the news. Quentin and Amanda were secretly married in the company. There were even fewer people who knew about their divorce.

“Don’t try to muddle through with me.”

Lawrence raised his eyebrows coldly, “Quentin is my secretary general and Amanda is my administration manager. Both of them are vital to the company. Of course, I investigated everything about them. They were secretly married, because they wanted to work better. I could understand that. So I pretended not to know about it. But they’re getting divorced now, and it has badly affected their work efficiency. It all started with you. Tell me, what should I do with you?”

“Mr. Charles…” Vivian was at a loss what to do. It seemed that she was going to lose her job.

Vivian came to her sense when Lawrence might have second thoughts about the candidate. She took the gold card on the table without hesitation.

The gold card was attractive enough, but what attracted her most was Lawrence himself. He was way better than Ben Hawk and Quentin in both social status and appearance. A golden bachelor like Lawrence had always been her ideal future husband.

Lawrence was cold and serious with moral integrity. Vivian had been too unconfident to approach him in the past. Now she had to seize the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity when he offered to take her as his mistress.

Vivian thought of Joey at the moment.

Joey had found herself a man as perfect as Allen, and Vivian was very jealous of her. She wouldn’t feel inferior to Joey anymore if Lawrence became her man. She had no idea that Lawrence was actually Allen’s younger brother at the time.

“Don’t celebrate too early. You have to follow two principles as my mistress, or I could replace you with another woman anytime.”

Lawrence was disgusted by Vivian’s excitement. He had seen too many women like her who worshipped money and he had always despised such women. But he needed such a woman around to put on a good show.
