Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 29

"Who is it?" Yuliana groaned. Irritated, she turned around to find a woman with red, teary eyes and a leaky nose.

Immediately, Yuliana grimaced and backed away from the unkempt woman in disgust.

"Miss Yuliana, it’s me, Mr. Fuller's secretary," Jace clarified after releasing Yuliana' s sleeve.

"Secretary? Shane has so many secretaries. How would I know who you are?" Yuliana blurted impatiently.

After all, she was a well- known female anchor. It took more than just being an ordinary person to talk to her.

Jace noticed the aversion overflowing from Yuliana's eyes. Still hanging onto one last thread of hope, she continued unwaveringly, "Miss Yuliana, please talk to Mr. Fuller for me. Please don't let him fire me."

"How does that concern me? If you’ve been fired, then so be it." She glanced at Jace with disdain.

Truth be told, she hoped for Shane to fire all the female employees in the company. That way, no one would try to seduce Shane anymore.

"Miss Yuliana, please don't leave just yet. Aren't you curious as to why Mr. Fuller fired me?"

Receiving no attention from Yuliana, dace's heart sank. However, as soon as she recalled the scene she had witnessed earlier, she called out loudly.

Yuliana froze in her tracks as soon as dace finished her sentence.

Seeing this, dace was overjoyed. She scampered over quickly and caught up with Yuliana.

"It was because of Charlotte Emerson; she's the reason Mr. Fuller fired me. In fact, I was not the only victim. Many others were also fired because of her,” dace explained to Yuliana. She had overheard Yuliana and Charlotte’ s exchange from earlier, and although dace was not in the know about the exact details, she could easily tell that they were not in each other's good books.

Two words as simple as "Charlotte Emerson" seemingly set off a bomb in Yuliana's head.

Seeing how Yuliana reacted to the news, dace knew at once that she had played her cards right. "Miss Yuliana," she continued, "you must know that Charlotte seduced Mr. Fuller as soon as she entered the company. Everyone knows this. What's more, she was so slick with her tricks that she manipulated Mr. Fuller into firing the design manager so that she could take the position instead."

"Is this all true?" Yuliana couldn't believe her ears.

Throughout the years she had been by Shane' s side, Shane had never once fired anyone for her sake. 'What on earth has gotten into him since Charlotte stepped through these doors?' she grumbled.

"Miss Yuliana, you may..." Before Jace could finish her sentence, Yuliana stormed off furiously into the office building with clenched fists, leaving nothing but the clickety- clack of her heels echoing in her wake.
