Chapter 152:.
But the room was empty, and Kennedy wasn’t there.
Charlotte didn’t give up and went to the studio.
She didn’t see him in the study either. Charlotte didn’t know where he was, probably because she felt guilty about what she had said, she always felt that Kennedy vanished from her world.
Or maybe she never entered his world.
Then Charlotte washed her face and changed clothes before going to the company.
When she came downstairs, she ran into Reynold, who was about to leave.
It had been a long time since she had met him, he seemed to be very busy lately.
When he saw Charlotte, he asked her directly, “Christina, from what I told you last time, how is everything going?”.
Charlotte was annoyed and didn’t quite think about what he was asking her at first and it took her a while to realize that he meant to ask about the affair between Manfred and Diana.
Thinking about it, Charlotte hastened to explain: “Mr. Reynold, I have discussed it with Diana, but I think she already has a boyfriend.
Diana, but I believe she already has a boyfriend, so…”
Reynold narrowed his eyes, seeming to be pondering whether his words were true or false. Charlotte felt a numbness in her scalp, so she couldn’t help but lower her head and bite her lower lip.
“Grandfather.”
A soft voice sounded. It was Manfred’s voice.
“Haven’t you made an appointment with Dexter for taichi? Dexter will tease you about being late again if you don’t leave now.”
Reynold gave Manfred a complex look, and finally withdrew his eyes, “Okay,
Christina, I’ll come see you another day.”
“Take your time, Mr. Reynold.”
As Reynold left, Charlotte realized she had a thin layer of cold sweat on her back under his stern gaze.
His eyes were too hard. Before him, Charlotte always feared that her identity would be discovered.
Manfred approached. “Are you all right?”
Manfred…
Charlotte was in no mood to confront him. At the sound of his voice, she looked down, staring at her toes and was about to walk away.
“Charlotte!” called Manfred to her when he saw that she did not answer him and was about to leave.
Charlotte’s pacing stopped.
Manfred said helplessly, “Are you avoiding me?”
Charlotte, “……”
She didn’t know how to confront him. This matter was too complicated.
Now it seemed to her that God had placed her on a chessboard of fate, perhaps she was destined to be the sacrificial pawn.
Thinking about this, Charlotte closed her eyes, saying no, and continued walking forward.
Manfred unexpectedly stepped forward to block her way.
“If you hadn’t avoided me, why don’t you have the courage to look at me?”
Then Charlotte spoke with her heart in her hand: please leave me alone, I really don’t know how to face you now!
Gentle Manfred seems to be adamant at this point: “Have I done something wrong to upset you? O……”
“No!” Charlotte suddenly raised her head to interrupt his words, “Manfred, don’t think too much. it’s my own problem! I have to go to work, excuse me.” As she uttered these words, Charlotte stepped forward.
Manfred turned his head and saw the slim, petite figure walking quickly.
He really thought it was a monster.
Until his back disappeared, Manfred suddenly came to his senses. He seemed to be too preoccupied with her lately….
But why on earth was she avoiding him? What did he mean by it being his problem?
Charlotte arrived late at the company, but she didn’t have time to pursue the problem and went straight to the office to find Kennedy.
As she was about to enter, Nathan blocked her way.
“Assistant Wilson, you can’t come in.”
Charlotte’s face paled slightly, “I need to speak to Kennedy.”
Nathan, “Mr. Kennedy said you can no longer enter and leave his office at will, don’t make it difficult for me.”
Charlotte, “……”
I didn’t expect that careless comment to raise such ire.
“And as of today, you are no longer her assistant.”
“What?” Charlotte’s eyes widened and she asked incredulously, “What does that mean?”
Cruel as it was, Nathan told her the truth: “You’ve been demoted.” Degraded, degraded…
Charlotte couldn’t help but swallow saliva, her pink lip quivering. After a moment, she asked helplessly, “What do I do then?”
“Cleaner.”
Cleaner? Charlotte’s face paled for an instant.
What kind of demotion was that? It was almost like kicking her out of the Moore Group. What would the others in the company think of a girl who worked as an assistant and suddenly became a cleaner?
“Or you could go to the lowest position in the hierarchy, but there would be rumors.”
I mean, there weren’t that many cleaners, but it was hard work.
The base position wasn’t as hard, but there were a lot of people. She would be demoted and harassed.
Charlotte looked down with derision, “Why didn’t you just fire me outright?”
Nathan became serious and said, “I wanted to fire you directly, but Assistant Wilson, don’t forget that you still owe the company salary, so you must stay and work for full time.”
Charlotte, “…It’s very economical, I see.”
If she explained now, he probably wouldn’t listen to her.
It was then that Charlotte realized that Kennedy was angry with her, because no matter what she did in the past, he would not demote her.
This made it clear that he announced to the entire company, even if there were rumors between him and Charlotte, it was all gone.
She was unprotected and anyone could bully her.
“Miss Wilson.” Nathan saw her turn around at a loss. He couldn’t help but say, “You said harsh words. Mr. Kennedy doesn’t like it when people say that.”
“I know.” Charlotte nodded, “I was driven at the time. I explained, but he wouldn’t listen. Now it seems like it’s useless. I’m off to work. I’m going to get my things.” With that, Charlotte went straight back to her post to collect her things.
Nathan sighed. They were husband and wife, but it had ended like this. The relationship between the man and the woman was really strange?
Nathan could not understand it.
Charlotte told Yanis that she had been degraded when they had dinner together. Yanis froze.
“How can that be? Mr. Kennedy loves you. Why have you been demoted all of a sudden? I can’t believe it, are you kidding me?”
With a bitter smile, Charlotte poked the rice into the bowl and refused to eat, “Do you think I’m kidding?”
