But almost immediately, she saw the photo he had been staring at.
Before she could say anything, Raphael put away his wallet and said flatly, âYou should sit in front.
â
Despite the fact that she was a very easy-going person, Sharon felt enough was enough.
She couldnât put up with this anymore.
For some years now, she had been working with Raphael side by side.
Even though she was his assistant, she had been to social gatherings with him, gotten drunk, and even got touched inappropriately on multiple occasions.
In fact, she had gone through a lot these past few years, all for Raphaelâs sake.
Yet, Raphael still couldnât forget about Olivia.
As far as she was concerned, this was not fair at all! Why Olivia, and why not her?
Sharon felt she had reached her limit and couldnât stay calm anymore.
As the daughter of the vice president of the cityâs business association, she was also an important individual in Duefron.
She was tired of being pushed around, so she asked him in an aggressive tone, âWhen will you forget her, Raphael?â
When Raphael heard this, he raised his head and gave her a stern Look.
Immediately, Sharonâs heart skipped a beat.
After staring at her for a while, Raphael said in an indifferent tone, âIf youâre not happy with your job, you can quit.
I donât like it when others meddle in my private affairs.
â
Sharon couldnât stop herself from arguing.
âBut just now, you didnât deny that our engagement will go on as planned,â she pointed out.
âDo you think weâre really going to be engaged?â Raphael sneered.
âCome on, Sharon.
You used me to show off to Olivia and I played along for reasons best known to me.
We both take what we need from each other.
Neither one is innocent.
â
âAnd by the way, there are a lot of women who would love to pose with me,â he added after a brief pause.
As she listened to him, Sharon felt as if her heart was being riddled with holes.
But having put in so much time and effort, she wasnât going to give in so easily.
Hence, gritting her teeth in displeasure, she climbed into the front passenger seat.
After he had been told the address he was to drive to, the driver started the car.
Meanwhile, Flora was seated by the window on the second floor.
This made it possible for her to see everything clearly.
âWell, that gentleman just left,â she announced with a chuckle.
âIt seems heâs not in a good mood.
â
After a brief pause, she asked curiously, âIs that young lady his new girlfriend or what?â
Olivia took a sip of her coffee to try to mask her anxiety.
Then she said in reply, âThey used to be classmates.
Theyâve known each other for many years.
