Chapter 78

Isn’t this… the same Ms. Parrott she bumped into outside Emmett’s office last time, only to be shooed away by him?

Back then she was still wondering what her relationship with Emmett really was!

“Clara, right? I’ve been waiting a long time to slap you! You should know why I’m doing this, right?”

Molly Parrott looked at her proudly, a hint of fierceness showing through her haughty face. Her heavy makeup made her look a bit scary.

Clora touched her stinging cheek, “What am I supposed to understand?”

“You’re still playing dumb! What did you tell me last time? That there’s nothing between you and Emmett, that you’re just a secretary and he’s your boss! Now you two are married and you’re still saying there’s nothing?”

Clara was at a loss for words.

She had completely forgotten about this woman!

But this woman was really stubborn, coming all the way here just to slap her as a warning?

“I’m telling you, Emmett can only be mine! He’s only with you to try something new!”

Clara frowned. She suddenly realized that this slap was all because of Emmett!

Even if she cried out in pain, it wouldn’t help. If she didn’t… it really hurt!

Emmett was just a troublemaker! Otherwise, why would she be slapped like this?

And she couldn’t even fight back now!

She knew nothing about this woman’s background. If she came from a powerful family, Clara would really be in big trouble!

Clara gritted her teeth and swallowed her anger, “Ms Parrott, I can overlook this slap, and I don’t dare to make a fuss about it! But if you keep this up,! won’t let it slide! I’m a secretary, Emmett’s secretary, not yours! If I’m not doing a good job, it’s Emmett who should criticize me, not you!”

But as a woman, she felt a bit sorry for Molly Parrott. She might never have gotten any attention from Emmett.

So she chose to bear this slap.

“Ha! Are you warning me? You’re the one who did wrong, and I’m just helping my future husband discipline his reckless secretary. What’s wrong with that? Molly Parrott sneered.

Clara was helpless, Your future husband? If I remember correctly, Emmett is currently my legally recognized husband! But I’m busy right now and don’t have time to argue with you. After all, I’m just a secretary in the company! I don’t have as much free time as you, Ms Parrott, to come all the way here just to slap me!”

With that, she turned to leave, trying to bypass Molly Parrott.

She had to finish her work quickly and then find Alex! Thinking about her son, she could withstand anything.

You can’t leave!” Molly Parrott called out sternly, gripping Clara’s wrist tightly. Her long nails were almost digging into Clara’s flesh. “You think I just came to slap you and leave? I’m telling you, you have to make a promise to me today!”

“What promise?”

“When are you going to divorce Emmett!”

Clara was speechless, What does that have to do with you? Ms Parrott, you’re going too far! I have important things to do. You’ve hit me, and I didn’t hit back. What more do you want?”

Molly Parrott clenched her fists, her eyebrows furrowed, “I want you to divorce Emmett, leave him as soon as possible! Disappear from Emmett’s life forever! I won’t allow any other woman by his side!”

Clara frowned, enduring the pain in her wrist, and said helplessly, “If you think Emmett has changed, you should go to him! Why come to me? I’m telling you, if you don’t let go of my hand, I’m really going to call security!”

“Go ahead and call, the security here is gone! I’ve sent them all away!”

“In such a large company like Melendez, could all the security be just sent away?

Clara felt things were getting more complicated.

This Molly Parrott was clearly prepared!

Was she planning to kill me?

When this possibility crossed her mind, Clara immediately changed her attitude, becoming humbler.
