Chapter 232
Cynthia propped herself up on her arms, staring at him like a lazy cat. "So you were just pretending earlier, right? You knew Shirley was spying on us, so you played along"
"I was indeed very angry just now, and I was indeed pretending, said he
That made sense to Cynthia. Usually, when she initiated a kiss, he would quickly take control. However, when they were in her room just now, he let her kiss him for a while, being gentle and compliant. Cynthia smirked and said, "By the way, why did you agree to let Shirley work at HJ? What job do you plan to set her up with?"
Jonathan rubbed Cynthia's head. Don't worry about it. You need to vent, and so do I
The next day, Shirley arrived at the BJ Building bright and early. After getting slapped three times yesterday, her face was still a bit swollen, but it didn't dampen her spirits.
She was humiliated on Instagram, enduring countless insults yesterday. She had firmly etched that grudge in her heart. She thought. Just you wait, Cynthia. No matter what, I won't let you marry Jonathan smoothly.
She thought that as long as she could be by Jonathan's side, she would have plenty of opportunities to rise in status, even if it meant using a few small tricks.
Holding her head high, Shirley entered the BJ Building. Having worked in the secretarial department before, she was quite famihar with the place.
She was just about to head straight to Jonathan's office when a few receptionists stopped her "Who are you looking for, Ma'am? Do you have an appointment?" Shirley puffed up with arrogance. "Do I need an appointment?"
The receptionists didn't recognize her. "Sorry, without an appointment, you can't go up."
"Do you know who I am? Do you know my relationship with your boss?" said Shirley,
The young receptionists looked her up and down. Despite being dressed in designer clothes, Shirley's demeanor and taste were terrible. Plus, her face was covered in a thick layer of makeup, and her cheeks were swollen, making her tackier. With that kind of presence, it was hard to believe she could have any connection to Jonathan
The receptionists exchanged glances, clearly unimpressed. "Many people come looking for Mr. Bennett every day. Who do you think you are? No appointment, no entry"
Shirley was infuriated and quickly pulled out her phone. Just wait and see, you all will regret it. You'd better be just as arrogant when you see Mr. Bennett in a while." Shirley's words made the receptionists a bit uneasy. They thought, Is it possible that this woman really had a connection with Mr. Bennett?
"Does she have Mr. Bennett's number? Could she be someone important?"
I feel like I've seen her somewhere before, but I just can't remember"
"Is she some wealthy heiress? We can't afford to offend such a person."
"Wait, do you

them.

Thinking about that incident made the four of them anxious. They thought that if Jonathan came down, he would really fire
Shirley confidently called Jonaillan. She got it from Justin's plane yesterday. She saw him keep Jonathan's number during dinner and she secretly checked it.
Shirley was certain that soon she would be spending every day with Jonathan. She shot a fierce glare at the four receptionists, who were now huddled together, whispering and casting doubtful glances her way.
Shirley thought, I'm gonna teach those girls a lesson later. How dare they bully me like Cynthia does? However, as time ticked by, the call didn't go through.
Shirley felt increasing unease, visibly panicking.
Those receptionists were smart. Seeing that no one was answering Shirley's call, they realized what was going on.
One of the bold ones approached and mocked, "You're not lying are you? Mr. Bennett never gave strangers his number"
Shirley defended herself. "It's true. It is Mr. Bennett's phone number.
"Please, we've seen this act before, and honestly, you're the worst at it."
Tm not lying! Jonathan agreed yesterday to let me be his secretary. Just wait, once I become his secretary. I'll be the first to have you all fired!" said Shirley
Seeing Shirley's frantic expression, the receptionists were even more convinced that she was lying. She seemed like a crazy girl to them. "Come on, everyone knows that Mr. Bennett's only secretary is Mr. Gaston. How can you take his position?" One of the receptionists shook her head, clicking her tongue.
Shirley was infuriated. She thought, 'How could those receptionists look down on me, the proud daughter of the Jones family? Wait, they did remind me of one thing Right, Mr. Gaston! I can call him!" She had worked for Claude before when she helped Rachel with her case, so she had his number.
Shirley called him quickly, feeling a surge of confidence. Fortunately, it went through almost immediately. "Mr. Gaston' This is Shirley Jones. I need you to come down and pick me up tht now!"
A few seconds passed, and Shirley hung up the phone with a smag look on her face. She sneered at the receptionists and said, "You're done. I'll have you pack your things and go home any minute now? The receptionists exchanged uncertain glances, One of them, skeptical, scoffed, "Do you think you can just order Mr. Gaston around? I'll be waiting to see if he actually shows up."
She thought, Everyone knows that Mr. Gaston is a big deal at Band is second only to Mr. Bennett. Who could possibly give him orders except for Mr. Bennett? Did she have the nerve to speak to him like that?' However, just a few minutes later, Claude did show up. The receptionists immediately panicked
Dressed in a suit, Claude approached at an easy pace. "What happened, Ms. Jones??
At that moment, Shirley's smugness and pride reached an all-time high. She looked down at the receptionists proudly and said, "Mr. Gaston, I find these people here quite annoying. Please kick them out of BJ" Chapter 233
