The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1659

A stranger's face came into sight when I entered the building and looked at the front desk.

The receptionist smiled at me, rose to her feet, and bowed. She was polite, but I could still see the contempt in the corners of her eyes.

I looked at her. She was fashionably dressed. I could see that she was no longer an intern.

Interns would usually dress in plain and simple clothes when they had just started working in the company. Moreover, they would not have such contemptuous looks in their eyes.

I reckoned that the woman must have worked in the company for some time, but

she was a senior I seldom saw.

The moment I turned around the corner, I heard noises coming out from the office, followed by someone passionately calling me.

"Boss, what brings you here today?"

It was the human resource manager, Lisa.

"I came to see if everyone's doing well. Is Cindy here? I need to talk to her."

I went straight to the point.

Lisa's expression changed when she heard Cindy's name.

"Oh, Ms. Reed. She’s probably at her work station. She's been busy with work for the past few days." Lisa turned around and led me to the office.

The noises in the office had quieted down now. 1 looked at my ex-colleagues and

some new workers who had just joined. I wore a smile on my face, but it did not mean anything.

I was no longer involved in the management of the company. There was no need for me to give a speech or say anything to them in public.

As for the other affairs, I would just leave them to them to handle them.

They were confused when they saw me coming back to the company all of a sudden while carrying a big belly.

Turning against each other in the same company... Would that not be a joke to outsiders?

Although everyone knew that celebrities fought among themselves in the entertainment industry, it would be better not to cross each other's lines at least on the surface.

However, if the contract had not been signed, then it would be a different story.

"How can you say that I snatched it away from you when you haven’t signed the contract? Jessie couldn't get the job. Does that have anything to do with us?"

"You!" The person lifted her hand as she was about to lay a hand on her. Lisa was one step ahead of them and stopped her.

"Hey, we’re all colleagues. Why are you giving such a big reaction to her words?” said Lisa.

The two of them turned around and looked at her when Lisa stepped forward. That was when they noticed me.

The agent who was yelling at Cindy earlier immediately reined in her temper and said, "Wanda, why are you here?"

Cindy shot a glance at me. She stood up to show respect, but she did not greet me.
