He looked at her stiff manner half-jokingly, then loosened his grip on her slender wrist. He took out a white handkerchief from his trouser pocket in disgust and wiped his hands with it.
He threw the handkerchief at James after he wiped his hands and hurried out, passing by her nonchalantly.
"I'm leaving, Secretary Jennifer."
Jennifer only realized that Hans was leaving as his sneers came from the direction of the door.
He put his hands in his pockets, and in his well-tailored pants, he walked at his own pace with grace. She could hear his laughter were mixed with a hint of coldness.
"It's almost time for work. If you're late, you'll be punished!"
James gave her a blank look. He wanted to say something but he stopped himself before he turned around and quickly caught up with Hans.
Jennifer was the only one left in the big villa, except for the servants who were looking at each other.
"Do you know why I acquiesced in grandma's decision and let you live here?"
"Because no man would ever refuse a free 'sleeping partner'."
She felt like she was in a trance and she kept hearing his words from just now. Her body went limp and she held onto the railings behind her.
She felt a chill on her back.
It turned out that she was just a 'sleeping' partner to him.
He only wanted to sleep with her, but he never intended to marry her.
So that was it...
"Mrs. Miller, are you alright?" A young maid came forward to support her.
She wanted to shake her head and say "I'm fine", but the words were stuck in her throat. At this moment, she heard another maid say mockingly, "What do you mean, Mrs. Miller? Mr. Hans hasn't acknowledged her identity yet! What's the use of Mrs. Miller's tacit approval? Mr. Hans didn't agree to the wedding, technically she's not even his fiancee!"
Her voice was soft, but it sounded like an exploding bomb in the quiet hall, ringing in everyone's ears.
"That's right. At most, she's a woman who has been in Mr. Hans's bed. However, Mr. Hans has slept with so many women, she's just one of them."
"She might even be the least favoured."
Thinking of how Mr. Hans treated this woman, the servants became bold. They started gossiping happily with each other.
Listening to these mocks and sarcasm, Jennifer's face soured. She forced herself to suppress the grievances and forced a smile.
Maybe this was Hans's revenge for her.
His hatred for her might last for the rest of his life.
...
Jennifer's workplace was originally not in Joy Group, but she couldn't turn down the request of Mrs. Miller, so she was forced to work alongside Hans.
Therefore, Hans was correct in calling her "Secretary Jennifer".
The Joy Group was the hard work of many generation of the Miller's family, and it had been passed down from generation to generation. Naturally, now it belonged to Hans.
It took him seven years to turn it into an entertainment empire. His company was formidable in the entertainment industry, with nearly half of the well-known actresses under his company.
For example, Maggie Clarkson who was rumoured to have an affair with one of the film star a while ago, and also Cindy Lopez, the host on the TR live broadcast platform.
"Secretary Jennifer, here is a document that you need to send to every department. There is also a report. After the review, you need to send it to the president's office for his signature. The report is very important. Don't lose it."
Miya, who had a pair of slender legs, left a stack of blue files and then left.
Jennifer lifted her hand from the mouse, opened the document, and looked at it again. Then she remembered the words "President's Office", and she was starting to have a headache.
No one in the company knew about her secret affair with Hans, nor the relationship between them.
But if she had to pretend that nothing had happened when she faced Hans, she would feel abashed.
Also, she would feel very weak.
