Catherine was in a wordless shame.
"Think I'm not upset enough?" She turned to Linda and vented all her anger. "Do you know what you are doing? Even if | committed suicide, it would be none of his business. Would he care about me?" Catherine seemed to be sober at this moment.
Linda cast down her eyes, looking like a child who had made a mistake. Her effort wasn't appreciated.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCatherine didn't have the heart to blame her. Looking at the couple at the door, she yelled, "Leave!" Pointing at Ivan, she shouted hoarsely, her lips trembling, "I don't want to see you. Please get out. Now!" Ivan glanced around the room coldly and said in a steely tone, "Linda Chambers, you're fired." Linda yanked up her head. "Mr. Marsh..." She wanted to put on some good words for herself but was scared by his eyes.
"Ivan Marsh!" Catherine rushed to grab his arm and stopped him from turning away. "You can punish me. Why do you have to give her a hard time? She's a junior employee and so young." Ivan's steely gaze fell on her hand. "Let go!" Catherine didn't obey. Instead, she gripped him more tightly as if to express her hatred.
"You can't do this to her." Catherine's eyes were bloodshot, and seemingly she couldn't tolerate it anymore.
Ivan had run out of patience. He pushed her hand away, squeezed Jennifer to his side, and left.
"Ivan!" Catherine followed him. Holding the door frame, she growled, "You can do anything to me, but Linda is innocent. You are the president of the Marsh Group. Don't be so despicable and mean!" Ivan didn't care about her rudeness at all.
Anger was written all over his stern face. He felt like wasting his time coming here.
When the elevator door slid open, they entered.
Catherine was so upset that she burst into tears, wondering if Ivan's punishment of Linda was because of her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLinda collapsed on the sofa, feeling weak. Focus disappeared from her eyes.
She had never expected to lose her job.
Inwardly, she blamed herself for having called Ivan earlier.
Catherine walked to her. Linda raised her head. Repressing the bitterness, she beamed at Catherine and said, "It's alright, Catherine. | can find another job." "I'l go to her mother. You can't be fired." Although Catherine had drunk a lot of liquor, she was rational. "You should distance yourself from me in the future. I'm a hoodoo. I'll bring bad luck to you." "Please don't say that..." "Linda, | know you appreciate me." Catherine tried her best to repress the sharp pang in her heart. "My help to you was just a lift of the finger. It's no big deal.” "Catherine..." Linda had stopped worrying about her job. She asked Catherine in tears, "Can you let go of Mr. Marsh?" Catherine looked at her. For a moment, she couldn't get what Linda meant.
"Can you be like before? Working hard as the vice president of the company. Being his best working partner. | mean, if it was possible or the time could be turned back." "No way!" Catherine refused without hesitation. "My love for him had been suppressed for a long time. If so, | would be crushed down. | must tell him how much I love him. Or I'll go crazy." Linda wondered if Catherine had never regretted ending up in this way.
"Please cheer up, Catherine." Linda didn't care about herself. Instead, she consoled Catherine, "You are brilliant and well- educated. Even if you don't work for the Marsh Group in the future, you'll have a bright future.” However, in Catherine's opinion, her whole life would be in the dark after leaving Ivan and the Marsh Group.
She disagreed with Linda. Her heart had already been broken.
