Marigold was completely taken aback, looking at Jennifer in disbelief. "Are you talking about Mr. Xie? Jennifer, how do you two know each other? Mr. Xie, are you and Jennifer close?"
David was amused and opened his mouth to respond, but didn't say anything, his gaze fixed on Jennifer's face, watching for her reaction. Did this woman really hate others knowing about her past that much?
"Who's close to him? I just have a good eye for faces, okay?" Jennifer flipped through the registration book, deliberately avoiding looking at David. "Marigold, if you keep chatting with him, the manager will find out and dock your pay." Their department manager was not someone to be trifled with; she considered Jennifer a thorn in her side, and since Marigold had become closer to her, the manager resented Marigold as well.
Mentioning the department manager finally made Marigold a bit nervous. "The manager shouldn't come down to check, right?"
