Adorning her coat and retrieving the car key, she prepared to depart.
Her husband offered to drive her.
She declined with a slight shake of her head.
âYouâll need to drive our child tomorrow morning.
Iâll handle this carefully.
â
At that moment, Sylvia vowed to purchase a million-dollar diamond ring by the end of the year, financed by the credit extended by Marcus.
Handling a man in the aftermath of a breakup was challenging, a burden she alone bore.
At eight oâclock in the morning in Warsew, Sylvia arrived at the hotel.
Sophia, upon seeing her, behaved like a spoiled child and questioned why Marcus was being so unreasonable.
Sylvia retained a sense of injustice.
Unfortunately, she lacked someone to confide in.

Wearing a light smile, she remarked, âWe are paid not just for our work skills but, most importantly, for understanding the bossâ intentions.
fell short on this.
Youâve Mr.
Sophia, you pissed Fowler.
I canât defend you this time.
â
Anxious, Sophia pleaded, âSylvia, Iâve been doing well.
â
Sylvia dismissed her concerns with a wave.
âHowever, Mr.
Fowler isnât content with your performance.
Sophia, let me be blunt.
You overstepped the boundaries.
Itâs not the surname Brown or the secretary role that Mr.
Fowler finds appealing.
Sometimes, menâs feelings for women can be inexplicable, but having feelings alone is not sufficient.
Mr.
Fowler has spent over a year in the company of Melissa.
I believe Melissa has consistently made him feel comfortable and content throughout this time.
â
Sophia stood in stunned silence.
She believed she possessed greater intelligence, was more sociable, and comprehended men better than Melissa.
Not wanting to engage in an argument with Sophia, Sylvia issued a direct command.
âReturn to Duefron and submit your resignation.
Iâll instruct the human resources department to provide you with an
additional monthâs salary.
â
Sophia remained unaccepting.
Sylvia, lowering her head with a smile, advised, âHad you been prudent, you wouldnât have provoked Mr.
Fowler once more.
Now one more mistake, itâs not just your job at stake.
I fear you might not be able to continue residing in Duefron.
â
Checking her watch, Sylvia promptly entered the elevator.
In a dazed state, Sophia gazed at Sylviaâs retreating figure.
She doubted the significant influence Melissa supposedly held.
She questioned how a woman could inflict such pain on Marcus.
Sophia soon discovered the truth.
When she hailed a taxi with her luggage, Sophia spotted Melissa across the street.
Melissa was employed at a breakfast shop.
Sophia deliberately walked over, intending to say something to Melissa.
However, as Sophia approached, she noticed the vivid red hickeys on Melissaâs neck, indicating the intensity of the situation at that moment.
Did Marcus visit Melissa last night?
If Marcus couldnât erase Melissa from his thoughts, why did Melissa endure such a challenging existence?
