Listening to the beeping sound from the other end of the phone, Monica Usher’s smile froze slightly, as if all the blood in her body had turned cold. She didn’t know how long it was before she reluctantly put down the phone. She had always been strong, but suddenly there was a moist glimmer in her eyes, trying hard not to let the tears fall, yet those bittersweet tears still unwillingly dampened her lashes. No matter how she had changed in the end, Justin Kingston was always the wound in her heart. She gripped the steering wheel tightly, took a deep breath, and tried hard to calm her emotions! His figure always lingered in her dreams at midnight. She would think of him from time to time while smoking... When she was drunk, his image became clearer in front of her... She missed him so much, so why shouldn’t she go? But she also knew that it must be because she joined the R-Alan Group that Justin Kingston came to trouble her. Monica Usher pressed the accelerator hard! There was a glint of hatred in her eyes. She no longer cared, she had said she would make him regret it! If she couldn’t have him, she’d destroy him! It would take at least half an hour to get to the Listening Café from here! Monica Usher was worried that Justin Kingston wouldn’t have the patience to wait, so she was speeding! In the elegantly comfortable café. Justin Kingston sat alone by the window. It was a workday, and there weren’t many customers at this time. He had waited ten minutes and concluded that Monica Usher would definitely come because he knew her too well. When he looked up, he cast a brief glance at the woman who had just walked in and was heading his way. Their eyes met, and both were somewhat cold. Monica Usher seemed very calm as she sat down across from him. "You should resign right away," Justin Kingston started directly, "Don’t you know what kind of person Lydia Ingram is? You’re jumping into the firepit." Monica Usher didn’t know what to say; she took a light sip of her coffee, carefully preparing her words. After a moment, she responded with a gentle smile, "I really didn’t expect that the first time CEO Kingston invited me would be to say this?" Justin Kingston looked at her with pity, "I’m doing this for your own good." "For my own good?" Monica Usher chuckled, her eyes full of disdain, "You fired me, humiliated me, and now that I’ve found a new job, you say it’s for my good?" Justin Kingston picked up his coffee cup, his handsome features carrying a natural aloof nobility. Monica Usher’s words suddenly turned chilly, she asked restrainedly, "Do you think you’re God? Can you save me? I’ve already left your world. Isn’t where I go my own freedom? What right do you have to interfere?" She was filled with intense hostility, and her eyes were full of resentment. Justin Kingston replied in a steady voice, "Lydia Ingram is a lecherous man, countless women have been ruined by him." "What’s it got to do with me?" Monica Usher looked at him angrily, "No need to feign concern." "If you want to get back at me, getting close to him is completely unnecessary." Justin Kingston leaned back slightly on the chair, a touch of dominance in his elegant posture, "The things you know are not even considered secrets, and the real company secrets are only known by me. For company confidential leaks, our Kingston Group has ten thousand contingency plans." Monica Usher met his gaze, laughing coldly, "First, take care of your own scandals. You and your little girlfriend have made it to the headlines, yet instead of comforting your wife at home, you’re here bothering me?" After saying that, she stood up and left, her back straight and proud, not glancing back, yet it was as if she heard the sound of her own heart breaking. Little girlfriend? ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net Justin Kingston put down his coffee cup, pulled out his phone, and opened the news page. The photo at the top of the headlines stirred a thin layer of anger in his eyes. It was obvious someone had set him up! Then Justin Kingston got up and left, his gaze becoming deeper and colder. That Emily! Is she out of her mind?!
