Jose thought about it and finally decided to strike first.
He had been with Laurie for so many years, yet the most he did was kiss her. Before Bob could have her, he had to have a good taste of her first.
Jose walked to the office door and said casually, "Laurie, bring the final version of the last script to my office and tell me about the general plot."
Laurie looked at him speechlessly, and Beebo quickly helped her out.
"I'm in charge of this script. Laurie is only the scriptwriter's assistant, not..."
Before he could finish, Jose interrupted him. "You don't have to tell me what to do. Laurie, bring the documents to my office."
Beebo wanted to continue, but he saw Laurie shake her head at him.
She had already decided that at worst, she would resign. She would never let Jose, this scumbag, take advantage of her anymore.
"Manager, these are the materials you wanted. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."
"Wait a minute!" Jose was a little angry. "Is it so difficult for me to see you alone now?"
"See me?" Laurie looked at him with an ambiguous expression. "Why do you want to see me? So you can drug me and send me to another man's bed to make your career successful? Jose, I used to think that you were at most a nasty fellow. I didn't expect you to be a thoroughly shameless, vile creature."
After saying this, Laurie turned around and was about to leave, but to her surprise, Jose held the door shut.
He closed the blinds with the remote control and said again in a low voice, "You know I have you in my heart, Laurie."
"Move," said Laurie icily.
She didn't want to have anything to do with Jose anymore. Just looking at him made her feel nauseated.
However, Jose did not intend to let Laurie go. "I know you have feelings for me too. After so many years of relationship, how can you get married just like that? You still love me, right?"
Jose pressed forward step by step, forcing Laurie to retreat to a corner of the room.
She tried her best to use both hands to stop Jose. "If you continue to do this, I'll scream! When your girlfriend finds out, let's see how you'll clean up the mess."
"You're my real girlfriend. Have you forgotten? I'm with Anna for our future, Laurie. My dear, you should understand."
Looking at her flushed face and rosy lips, Jose suddenly felt a little thirsty.
In particular, when he recalled the body-fitting gown she was wearing at the banquet, Jose couldn't contain himself anymore and hugged Laurie. "I know you have me in your heart. You and your husband must have a fake marriage. You and him..."
Suddenly, the door was flung open, and Anna's sharp voice rang out. "What are you two doing?"
Upon hearing her voice, Jose broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly pushed Laurie away and then hugged Anna.
"Darling, it's not what you think. She seduced me and said she still loves me. It's all her fault!"
Anna didn't even look at him. Her eyes were filled with rage, and the flames of rage were directed at Laurie. "You slut! How dare you seduce my man?"
Anna took a step forward, but just as she raised her hand, Laurie grabbed her hand.
"Are you sure I seduced him? Don't you know what kind of character he is? Did it look like I was seducing him just now?"
Jose didn't expect that Laurie, who had always put him first, would spill the beans on him at this juncture.
He quickly defended himself. "Darling, don't listen to her nonsense. I only love you. It was Laurie who seduced me!"
Anna's hand continued to exert strength as she tried to hit Laurie, but Laurie was not willing to be outdone.
Finally, she flung Anna's hand away viciously and said to Jose, "It seems that the manager still doesn't know the company well. There are surveillance cameras in every office. Shall we retrieve the footage to see what truly happened?"
Jose did not realize that there were surveillance cameras in the office. He looked around in panic.
It was because he felt guilty that he began stammering. "How is that possible?"
Anna knew Jose well enough. She knew what was going on when she saw his reaction.
However, she did not intend to let Laurie off so easily.
"Even if he made the first move, it was you who was shameless in the first place!" She raised her chin haughtily and raised her voice when she saw that the manager's office was surrounded by many colleagues.
"You seduced Bob at the banquet and made him fall in love with you. Then you seduced the Young Master of the Wansen Group and even played hard to get with Bob. Now you're seducing Jose. Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you're beautiful!"
Anna's voice became more and more agitated. "The company can't have such an indecent person like you. You're fired!"
