Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 780

The person who took the glass away was Zayne.

He glanced at the glass of water in his hand, which was still clear and uncloudy, and smirked. "What would happen if someone drank this, Ms. Blake?”

An expression of panic clouded Fiona's face. She bit down on her lip, her eyes turning red-rimmed. "Give that glass back to me.”

Shannon scoffed. "Give it back to you so you can destroy the evidence?"

With that, she picked up the phone and dialed the extension for Joshua’s secretary. "Courtney, ask President Lynch to come to the design department right now. His girlfriend Fiona got herself in trouble again!”

Yesterday, Fiona had deliberately poured coffee all over Arianna and claimed that Luna's assistants were trying to get rid of her. Today, she was caught red-handed trying to poison Luna. How was she planning t o explain this? Was she going to claim that Luna’s assistants were trying to frame her again?

"Shannon..." Seeing that Shannon had called Joshua's office, tears welled up in Fiona's eyes once more. "It’s just a tiny matter. Why did you have to call Joshua..."

She turned and shot Luna a pitiful look. "Ms. Luna, I wasn’t trying to poison you. Please listen to me..."

"You weren't trying to poison her?” Before Luna could even speak, Shannon immediately glared at Fiona and yelled, "Director Luna has security cameras in her office! Are you trying to lie your way out of this? Even i f you managed to avoid the cameras, you still couldn't hide from us. Every single one of us saw you pour some white powder into Luna's glass!”

The more she spoke, the more riled up Shannon got." Ms. Blake, I don't understand what you're trying to achieve here. Yes, Director Luna was involved with President Lynch in the past, but that was so long ago. Why are you still holding this against her?

"If you don’t like her, why don’t you just ask President Lynch to fire her instead? That'd save you so much time and effort! On one end, you tried to force Director Luna to stay, but on the other hand, you're doing this kind of stuff on the down-low. Aren't you tired of leading this double life?"

Shannon had always been an impartial person. In the past, despite knowing Luna and Alice's rivalry, she had never taken a stand, nor had she ever stood up for Luna.
