On the contrary, the employees outside were convinced by that news report and gossiped about Aubree.
“Previously, it was rumored that Mr. Farwell had been dragging his feet on fulfilling the marriage contract because he was unwilling to marry Ms. Pearson. Unexpectedly, he's such an attentive person in secret.”
“Mr. Farwell is so handsome and attentive! I, too, want such a boyfriend!”
And so, similar sentiments rang out, one after another.
When Aubree heard all that, her expression changed time and again. Her fingernails almost punctured her palms before she managed to suppress the blazing wrath within her. “Don't talk about irrelevant things during working hours. Go about your work seriously!”
After saying that, she swept a chilly gaze over the employees who were whispering among themselves earlier. Then, she spun on her heel and strode away without a backward glance.
Truly, she couldn’t bring herself to stay there anymore. The more they talked about it, the greater her fury.
Having left the office, she sped home directly.
In the Pearson residence, Gina and Samuel sat in the living room. Both of them were stunned when they suddenly caught sight of their daughter stalking in huffily.
“What's wrong, Aubree? Who offended you at the office that—”
Samuel thought it was a work issue and was about to give his daughter some advice when Aubree cut him off coldly. “Work schmerk! All you talk about is work! If you're so eager to have the company do well, shouldn't you be enthusiastic about marrying me into the Farwell family? But why do you have no idea about Lucian's movements?”
At her remark, Gina and Samuel's hearts sank.
Frowning, Gina questioned, “It's about Lucian? Didn't Sonya already circulate the news of you both getting married? What more is there to worry about?”
No sooner had she said that than
Aubree stalked over to them on her high heels and tossed her phone onto the couch. “See for yourselves!”
At that, the couple exchanged a look before picking up the phone in puzzlement.
