Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)

Chapter 46

Damn woman, it was clearly her who took the initiative to undress him for many times.

She seduced him, and he just did what she wanted.

At the thought of her frightened expression, he became so upset.

Joyce was in a hurry to get to work at R&S headquarters. She was a bit disoriented, looking at the

subway shuttling back and forth, and was lost in thought, causing her to miss a train.

By the time she arrived, she looked at her watch and was ten minutes late.

"Crap." She frowned, blaming Luther for delaying her in the morning and stirring up her mind.

She has always been strict with herself, and punctuality was the first requirement.

When she came to the office, Supervisor Lauren looked displeased and called out to Joyce, "Stop."

Joyce bowed respectfully, "Lauren."

Lauren was mainly responsible for managing the daily matters of the R&D team, and attendance was

naturally included. Today she was wearing a black work suit with white shirt, and her hair was

meticulously coiled up, making her look smart and competent.

"Let's see. Who do you think you are? A big shot oversleep?" With a sarcastic face and a rather Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

contemptuous expression, Lauren pointed to Charlotte, who was sitting not far away behind the

partition, and flattered Charlotte, "Look at the real big shot, who diligently arrived half an hour early."

"I'm sorry, there was an accident." Joyce was unjustifiable and didn't want to make excuses for herself.

"Hey, that's why the rich and powerful people are working hard now. You, the underclass still don't

know the shame and deserve to be poor for the rest of your lives." Lauren spoke aggressively.

Joyce tilted her head and just felt funny. She thought there was no need for Lauren to say such a bad

word to her.

Juanita gave Joyce a look that told her to hold back. The project had just started and it would do no

good to offend Lauren.

Charlotte, seeing this, stood up and walked forward, advising, "Lauren, I think Joyce must have

encountered something. She's a great student, and she's a popular figure at Conard University."

"You, still speak for her. You can't be too kind otherwise you may easily suffer loss. I brought you a

cappuccino by the way this morning, take it. You go and continue your work. You got me here." Lauren

immediately turned around, full of smiles, nodding to Charlotte. Knowing that Charlotte's background

was so noble, how can she not kiss up to her? Maybe she could get a proper position in the

government with only one word from Charlotte.

Charlotte feigned a look of embarrassment as she accepted the cappuccino.

Then she dutifully returned to her seat. Waiting for a good show.

Charlotte's words, ostensibly speaking on Joyce's behalf, actually undoubtedly added fuel.

Lauren was not well educated, and her grades were not good enough. So she relies on the means to

help her get the supervisor position. She was usually most jealous of ones who were good at study.

Charlotte knew all the things about Lauren for she inquired about them in advance with special

intenion.

"Oh, is it great to be a good student? You can be late because you are a good student? Nowaday there

are plenty of people who are disciplined, down-to-earth and willing to work as well. Now that you've

stepped into society, you have to start from the basics." Lauren continued to be sarcastic and her face

of heavy make-up was distorted.

"Yes, I understand." Joyce nodded. Wise people would not argue about it.

"You don't need to work today. Go make coffee for everyone first, and also, clean the room all over

again, and wipe down all the tables. Figure out your place. Behave yourself before you do anything!"

Lauren ordered them with a pompous manner.
