A Journey from Bitterness to Truth (Matilda and Yvan) novel Chapter 722

However, what nobody knew was that Matilda's tenure was about to come to an end today.

"Hey Matilda, did you bring your boyfriend along today?"

As she passed a group of chatty assistants, a few of them, all smiles and striding confidently in their high heels, came over to greet her. "Wow, what a catch!"

"You look absolutely stunning today~ Is it because of the new love in your life?"

"Totally jealous here, you finally left the single club."

"Cut it out, guys, he's not my boyfriend. Good morning, though." Matilda waved them off with a laugh.

"Good morning." This group of young women were all very sweet, highly competent, and free from any petty schemes, a far cry from the backstabbing that could happen elsewhere.

This also indirectly proved that Yvan had a good eye when picking his secretaries, ensuring none of the troublemakers got through the door.

But the scene shifted dramatically once they reached the administrative department.

Led by Kurt, a few of the men sneered as they saw Matilda, remaining silent until she was out of earshot before starting with their sarcastic remarks. "She really thinks she’s some kind of celebrity, parading around like that, only those women would entertain her."

Matilda just offered a chilly smile in response, never bothering to engage with their spiteful comments. She preferred to let her work speak for itself.

But today… She took a deep breath before stepping into the CEO's office and dialing Noel.

Mark, who had been quietly shadowing her, knew better than to speak up now.
