Chương 23: 23. Realization

Danica stared at her boss in disbelief. She never saw him in the super angry state.

"Paula, she—"

"Paula had something urgent to attend." Lea suddenly showed up from nowhere, interrupting William and Danica's conversation. "Hurry up, Will! Everyone is waiting."

Lea grabbed William's arm, but the man quickly brushed her hands away. "Lea, please, don't do this here. I am still married to Paula. I don't want gossip to ruin my reputation."

Lea's heart throbbed. She didn't think William would reject her in front of his secretary. Her eyes met Danica's—in questioning looks.

Although a little bit confused, Danica quickly grasped the situation roughly. Looked like her boss was having a relationship problem. That explained his change in attitude recently. She knew only a little about William's private life and she considered not stepping out of the boundary. That was what she had to do as a subordinate.
