Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 324

Chapter 324 Wanting to Kiss Her

The R&D department was the core department of the company, and the employees generally did not go out.

Ronald didn't expose Steven's lie because when Steven lied to show off, he didn't even have the qualifications to be Ronald's opponent.

A wave of frustration washed over Steven. He felt even more depressed when he saw Ronald and Ashley standing together so well-matched.

"I'm not very familiar with the R&D department." Steven faked a smile and then continued to ask, "Are you in charge of the R&D department?"

"No, I'm not," Ronald answered honestly, which made Steven seem petty.

Since Ronald was not in charge, the crowd reasoned that he was just an ordinary employee. Everyone looked at each other, and it seemed they were right. Ashley didn't have a good husband.

Then, Ronald was seen as an ordinary employee who was just a little more handsome, not even in the same league as them.

Twenty people were sitting around the large round table, and it was already packed with no empty seats. As the host of this gathering, Steven didn't even ask the staff to add a chair when Ronald arrived.

Clearly, he was particularly envious of Ronald and wanted to embarrass Ronald.

Others could see it, too. No one would offend the well-known young and successful Steven for a regular employee of a company like Ronald.

Ashley felt sorry for Ronald when she saw him being excluded, and anger welled up inside her.

She reached out and held Ronald's hand, expressionless as she said to everyone, "My husband is here to pick me up, so we're leaving. Since we're not on the same page, let's never meet again. Farewell."

With her words, the whole room fell silent.

Since they didn't show any respect for Ashley, she didn't need to be polite, either.

Ashley was already feeling uncomfortable when Cynthia snatched her phone, and now Ashley finally flared up.

When Ronald saw Ashley standing up for him, a hint of unnoticed tenderness crossed her face.

This girl always protects her loved ones.

Ashley turned to her teacher and said, "Mr. Lee, sorry about tonight. I'll visit you another time."

Mr. Lee sensed that something was off and smiled. "Drive safe!"

Seeing that Ashley was about to leave, Steven hastily said, "I drove a car here. Let me give you a ride."

Ronald declined. "No, thanks! I also drove here."

He didn't care about this group's attitude. Besides, Ashley clearly didn't like them, so there was no need to interact with them further.

"Then I'll walk you to the door." Steven insisted. "I have something coming up as well, so let's leave together."

Steven's reaction displeased Ashley. After many years of being apart, she felt that Steven had become somewhat unfamiliar and aggressive.

Cynthia laughed. "I'll go with you, too. Steven, can you give me a ride?"

Steven called over a waiter, paid the bill, and shamelessly joined Ashley and the others.
