Chapter 190 Their faces instantly lit up with excitement.N Perhaps thinking that the person who had arrived was me , my father abruptly sprang from his office chair . Aidan was the first to rush out . " Susan ! Susan , I knew you were okay ! " } They rushed toward the familiar figure at the doorway , but the next moment , voices rose from the crowd of employees . \ " Miss Sally is so kind . She actually thought of us employees and brought us coffee . " } " Yeah , this brand of coffee costs over a hundred dollars per cup ! If it were me , I'd never splurge on it ! " " " Miss Sally is also so beautiful . She and Mr. Connor are truly a perfect match . " Flattering voices rang out one after another . Standing in the center of the crowd , Sally grinned triumphantly , like a mosquito sated with blood . However , a discordant voice soon sounded from within the crowd . " You people are so fickle . Wasn't Miss Susan also good to us before ? It seems like her daily coffee was just a waste . Besides , wasn't Mr. Connor Miss Susan's fiancé ? When you get down to it , she's just an illegitimate daughter and a mistress ! " The speaker was my former confidante within the company . Her own family background was quite respectable , which gave her the confidence to speak out now . She knew exactly what kind of person Sally was . Such petty favors wouldn't win her over . Sally's face instantly soured . She forced a smile and said , " After what my sister did , the Ladners would never accept her as a daughter - in - law . I had no choice but to clean up her mess . I know she was kind to you all before . Don't worry , I'll do even better . " After finishing her speech , Sally turned and spotted Aidan and my father standing nearby . " Her face instantly lit up with a bright smile . She then trotted over to them , feigning hurt . " Dad , Aidan , you're finally here ! I was just trying to be kind by bringing them coffee . I never imagined they'd still be thinking about Susan . Maybe I really am no match for her . " " Sally adopted a pouty , aggrieved expression . In the past , Aidan and my father would have immediately defended her without a word . Now , they stood silently by , watching Sally endure the scolding . Even as she displayed her hurt feelings before them , they remained cold and indifferent . Suddenly , something flashed in Aidan's eyes . Without a word , he grabbed Sally and dragged her toward the office . Sally didn't catch any pity in their expressions ; instead , she was ruthlessly hauled toward the office . in that instant , she sensed something was terribly wrong . My father and Aidan's attitudes had changed completely since before . Combined with yesterday's events , even someone as naive as Sally grasped the shift in circumstances . Aidan and my father had likely discovered something . The realization made her struggle against Aidan's tight grip . "
