Chapter 512

Just as Lindsey fired back, she caught the man’s alluring and resonant low voice.

“I will miss you very much.

”

Lindsey’s heart raced for a moment.

She gently bit her lip and murmured, “Same here.

”

On the morning of the second day, when Lindsey arrived at the office, she found out that everyone in the company was huddled together and engaged in a discussion.

When Lindsey entered, Nancy broke away from the crowd and tugged Lindsey to the side.

Nancy informed her, “Linds, I heard that Gallop Entertainment’s network system got hacked and crashed completely.

The entire network department staff had to put in an all-nighter to fix the system.

”

“Seriously?” Lindsey cast a surprised gaze at Nancy.

Gallop Entertainment was a prestigious company.

The network security should have been well-built.

How could it have been compromised so easily by a hacker?

“I also heard that every computer in their company went dark last night, but a text was displayed on the screens.

” Nancy added in a peculiar tone.

Lindsey’s curiosity peaked.

“What did it say?”

“Shitty Shelia Stewart get out of showbiz.

”

Lindsey couldn’t help but laugh.

Nancy crossed her arms, wearing a skeptical expression as she remarked, “She brought this upon herself with all her wrongdoings.

I can’t fathom which influential figure she’s crossed paths with, someone keen on giving her a taste of her own medicine.

After this mess, her reputation in the company must be in disarray.

It’s a shame this issue hasn’t made waves on the internet.

It seems like Gallop Entertainment’s insiders tried to keep it under wraps, but it’s leaked out across the entertainment industry.

”

Lindsey couldn’t help but ponder that last night when Shelia set foot in the company and started spewing empty words, Gallop Entertainment swiftly turned the tables on her.

Lindsey’s eyes couldn’t help but drift to Xiomara’s desk.

People were discussing and enjoying themselves.

Only she sat alone in front of the desk, looking lonely.

Lindsey approached Xiomara with a smile.

“Why are you sitting by yourself here?”

Xiomara looked up, forcing a smile on her chubby cheeks.

“I guess not everyone’s fond of a fat girl like me, so… it’s better I stay alone.

”

Lindsey pulled a chair close and sat next to Xiomara.

“Who says that?

I really like you.

Don’t belittle yourself.

”

Blushing, Xiomara looked down.

“Thanks, Lindsey.

I… I really like you a lot too.

”

With a smile, Lindsey suddenly spotted a lunchbox on the desk.

It contained nothing but vegetables.

“Are you trying to lose weight?” Lindsey asked casually.

Xiomara gave a nod.

“I’m pretty sure it won’t work, but I want to give it a shot.

”

“Why are you so certain it won’t work?” Lindsey observed Xiomara closely and sensed that there was more to her story than met the eye.

Xiomara fidgeted with her fingers, pausing for a moment before speaking slowly, “As a child, I had a health condition that caused me to become obese.

I tried countless doctors and various methods to address it, but nothing seemed to work, so…”

Lindsey realized that Xiomara had once dreamt of becoming an actress, a dream she had to abandon due to her weight.
