[Avery, you wouldn't believe it. She acts like she owns the place, bossing everyone around.]
[A homewrecker secretary rising through such shameful tactics, where does she get the nerve? I bet Mr. Ford doesn't even like her.]
She said Lyla had been overly attentive to Arthur recently, even at the company. She would link arms with him and cling to him in front of everyone, coming and going as a couple.
But lately, Arthur was clearly annoyed with her. Employees often saw them arguing in the stairwell.
Lyla tried to kiss him, but he pushed her away so hard that she slammed into the wall, her hair coming undone.
Some employees felt a bit sorry for her when they saw this, but most said she deserved it.
Nora's was gleeful as she gossiped with me.
[A mistress will always get her comeuppance!]
[I've read too many novels about chasing wives till they're cremated, and now seeing it in real life is really satisfying. Avery, let me tell you, Mr. Ford is trying every way to win you back now, and he doesn't want to deal with that Lyla at all.]
I laughed, releasing a sigh of relief.
