Isabella had barely sat down at her desk when Jessie leaned over and whispered, "Didn't you take a few days off? Why is Homewrecker saying you stole her client? What's going on?"
Weighed down by the post-vacation slump, Isabella switched on her computer lazily and answered, "I have no idea. Maybe she's in a bad mood again and just needs someone to take it out on."
Just then, a thought struck Jessie, and she exclaimed, "That's it! I heard last month that the higher-ups were thinking about making Mr. Peck the new general manager. But now that the position is given to someone else, it means he lost his chance. No wonder Homewrecker is losing it!"
Everyone in the office knew Lisa and Gavin Peck were having an affair, even though he had a wife and kids. That was how she gained the nickname "Homewrecker".
"She's here!"Jessie hissed in Isabella's ear before returning to her own seat.
Isabella lifted her head casually and was instantly met with Lisa's fierce glare. There was no doubt that she was here for her.
"Isabella! Why did Mr. Bennett of Bennett Group specifically request you to design the ad for their new product? What have you been sneaking around doing these past few days?" Lisa's voice rang out across the office.
Her tone dripped with arrogance, as though she stood above Isabella. However, in reality, Lisa had joined the company later, and her work fell short of Isabella's. If not for her affair with Gavin, she wouldn't dare to strut around like this.
With her chin resting in one hand, Isabella cast a sidelong glance at Lisa. It wasn't hard to see why men would find her alluring. Surgery or not, her flawless makeup alone was enough to outshine most women.
"I've never done anything sneakily," Isabella said flatly.
