Take Your Time To Love Me

Chapter 22 Relationship Breakdown

"……"

Seeing Nancy, everyone stopped talking abruptly.

In fact, Nancy didn't feel anything strange about this. After all, she was a newcomer. At present, except for being close to Cathy, no one else in the company had integrated Nancy into their group.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little depressing. Nancy didn't expect that her words would cause awkward silence in an instant. She felt a little sad.

"Well, it's okay. I'm just too tired drawing. I want to see what you are doing. Well, you can continue..."

Since she was the one who caused the awkward silence, she should end it.

When she came back to her desk again, Nancy really felt her head was pounding.

Why did things suddenly turn out like this?

Nancy had been worried for two days. Yet, finally, these gossips were still heard by Linda.

Although Linda was an experienced designer, she was still much far inferior to Ken in terms of reputation. Therefore, everyone naturally thought that Linda wanted to make friends with Ken of a higher social position.

Linda had always been proud. How could she accept this?

"Nancy, come to my office."

With a hypocritical smile on her face, Linda crossed her arms over her chest and held her head high.

Seeing this, Nancy already knew what was going on.

Bad luck came, and she couldn't stop it anyway.

Linda's office was not big, but it was at least a closed space. No matter what they said inside, no one outside could hear them.

"Do you know why I want talk to you?"

Linda still kept her arms crossed over her chest, looking at Nancy in front of her. The sternness between her eyebrows was particularly obvious.

As she heard this, Nancy's face suddenly froze. She knew that there would be a bloody storm waiting for her.

However, even so, she couldn't escape. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"Linda, I'm sorry. But this matter has nothing to do with me. I don't know why people spread this news. It's really not me..."

Nancy's voice was getting lower and lower. Although she was very clear about all this, she also knew that it was not easy to convince Linda in front of her.

"If it weren't you, who else would it be? Nancy, I find that I really don't dare to belittle you. I didn't have a good impression of you at the beginning when you came to our department, but after all, we are colleagues in a short term, so I put up with it. I didn't expect that you still like to stab others in the back like this!"

Linda's words were so harsh that Nancy was at a loss.

It was not that she didn't know how to fight back, but she couldn't because of her current situation.

After all, Ryan was very strict with her. If something went wrong at this moment, there would be no way back.

"Linda, I think you really misunderstood me. I really didn't tell anyone about it."

Although she knew that his explanation seemed feeble now, she still chose to explain. After all, escape was not the solution to the problem. The most important thing was to face it.

"Do you think I will believe you? Nancy, since you treat me like this, don't blame me for being rude to you! "

When Linda said this, her face was ferocious, and the perfume on her body was getting closer and closer to Nancy.

Caught off guard, Nancy felt a burning pain on her face.

Nancy subconsciously covered her face and looked up at Linda in disbelief, frowning.

Just then, there was a sound of unlocking the door.

Linda was in panic. After all, although she was angry, she was in the company now. No matter who saw this scene, it was not a good thing for her.

Thinking of this, she tried to take Nancy's hand off her face, but just at this moment, the door was pushed open.

"What are you doing?"

It was Ken who came in.

It was him!

Linda was totally flustered.

"I... We... "

Linda was thinking about how to explain it. Out of the corner of her eye, she looked at Nancy. She was afraid that this woman would complain in front of Ken. If she did, her image in Ken's heart would be much worse.

"Mr. Zhou, Linda and I were talking about this project. We have some different opinions on several aspects and were trying to get along with each other."

Unexpectedly, Nancy relaxed immediately and even smiled.

Hearing her explanation, Linda breathed a sigh of relief, and the expression on her face began to ease.

"I see."

After hearing this, Ken nodded slightly. His deep eyes could not help staying on the right side of Nancy's face for a few seconds.

However, Ken said nothing in the end.

"Mr. Zhou, why are you here?"

Seeing that it had been covered up, Linda began to circle around Ken. After all, Ken was her dream lover. If she could stand by this man's side through her own efforts, she would definitely do anything at all costs.

Therefore, the multinational cooperation this time was the opportunity Linda had wanted.

No matter what, she would do her best this time.

"I also want to talk about the project with you. I know that Ryan attaches great importance to the cooperation, so I hope our Design Department can satisfy him."

Ken raised his eyebrows and said confidently.

Indeed, any project with his participation would be a success in the end.

"When I came in just now, I passed by Nancy's desk and saw the design drawing on it. I have to admit that she's very talented."

Hearing this, Nancy was shocked.

She was a little surprised to be praised by Ken.

What's more, those sketches were obviously drawn by her casually. She didn't even pay attention to the proportion, but Ken gave such a high evaluation.

However, Linda's brows were knitted tightly.
