Chapter 615
Married at First Sight
Turning around, Liberty went back into the office. That colleague was still chatting away. happily with the others.
Liberty went straight to that personâs desk and only then did the colleague realize that Liberty had come back.
The woman was a bit overwhelmed by the embarrassment of being caught redâhanded. while speaking badly behind someoneâs back.
âDo you have a crush on Mr. Lewis?â
Libertyâs words instantly made the girlâs face turn red.
âOf course not.â
She denied it.
âThen is it fascinating for you to spread rumors that Mr. Lewis and I have a secret affair? I heard the bitterness in your tone, so itâs clear that you have a crush on Mr. Lewis. Thatâs why youâre always targeting me.
âWhether you believe me or not, I donât have any interest in Mr. Lewis. Iâm indeed divorced, but thatâs because my husband cheated on me. Was I supposed to keep him until the new year before divorcing him? Now that Iâm divorced, do I have to be subjected to rumors by you saying that Iâm seducing Mr.
Lewis?
âMr. Lewis is an open and upright person. If there was anything going on between us, he would never hide it.â
Liberty looked at the lady coldly and added, âIf I hear you talking nonsense again and creating rumors behind my back, Iâll sue you for slander!â
She then turned on her heels and walked away.
The womanâs complexion shifted between the colors of red and white.
The others watched as Liberty strode off coldly. All of them heard what she said earlier. and felt as if Liberty was warning them too.
There were too many rumors about her in the company.
If Liberty truly wanted to sue them for slanderâ¦
Liberty knocked on the door of Duncanâs office with a cold face.
âIs your face okay?â Duncan asked with concern when he saw the scratches on Libertyâs face had not completely disappeared.
âItâll be fine in a couple of days. Thank you for your concern.â
Liberty stood two meters away from his desk.
âHave a seat,â Duncan told her to sit down.
Neither did Liberty speak, nor come closer. She merely stood there, looked at Duncan, and asked calmly, âDid you need me for something?â
âYes, well⦠I wanted to ask about your sisterâs situation.â
âSeren?â
Liberty instinctively said, âMr. Lewis, my sister is already married.â
Duncan was stunned before snapping to his senses and said, âDonât misunderstand, Liberty. Thatâs not what I meant. Iâm well aware that your sister is a married woman, and that her husband is working at York Corporation. Our company has business dealings with York Corporation, and I can say that Zachary and I are friends.
âThe thing is, I talked shop with Zachary last night and at the end of the call, I mentioned the incident from yesterday evening. Your brotherâinâlaw seemed very angry because your sister did not tell him about it. I was worried the couple would fight because I let slip what happened.
âI was so deeply upset that I couldnât focus on my work, so I had to call you up to ask about the situation.â
Liberty paused, then said, âThey should be fine. Seren was still sleeping when I came to work this morning. I think sheâs fine.â
Duncan could not manage to get a full answer, so he could only say, âThatâs good. You didnât look very happy when you came in earlier. Did you have a fight with your colleagues?â
He had a sharp eye.
Libertyâs face was cold when she came in.
She fell silent.
