"What do you mean by saying that I posted the photo?" Jane Quinlan was shocked.
She didn’t understand how this woman could have such a thought.
If she wasn’t crazy, how could she possibly do such a thing?
"Isn’t it you? Aside from you, I can’t think of anyone else who would do such a disgusting thing."
Eden Howard righteously said it as if it was already proven beyond doubt.
Jane Quinlan smiled helplessly, "No matter what you think, I didn’t post the photo.
For me, having been with someone like Xavier was never something worth showing off."
"So, I should just believe you?
Jane Quinlan, no matter what, because of you, it’s over between me and Xavier. Are you happy now?"
Jane Quinlan sighed, "Why would I be happy about your breakup.
Eden, don’t you think you’re being quite unreasonable to lose your temper at me?
The one who deceived you is Xavier, not me.
I’m also a victim; I was kept in the dark just the same.
You two played me for a fool as well; if anyone has the right to be angry, don’t you think I do too?"
"You? Hah." Eden Howard sneered, "Anyway, I’ve already broken up with him, go ahead and say whatever you like."
Eden Howard furiously slammed her ballpoint pen on the table.
Kay Forrest walked in from the doorway to stand behind Jane Quinlan, looking at everyone.
"Although I’m not the person involved, I think it’s necessary for me to be a witness.
The photo was not posted by Jane Quinlan; she was with me this morning.
She was with me dealing with some matters since early morning, around 5 o’clock.
At 5 a.m., the lobby of our office building wouldn’t have been open, as everyone probably knows."
Jane Quinlan turned to look at Kay Forrest, feeling even more touched now.
Looking at him at this moment, she felt that his aura seemed to be magnifying little by little.
He looked even more handsome.
After he spoke, there was a faint murmur in the office.
Kay Forrest pointed at the door, "Actually, if you really want to know who posted it, just go to the security department and request the surveillance footage.
See who came to the company first today and see whose behavior is suspicious."
As soon as Kay Forrest finished speaking, Eden Howard moved her chair forward a bit: "Who wants to see that kind of stuff, I don’t care who did it.
Anyway, the outcome is already set; I should actually thank the person who exposed it, for letting me see the true colors of the hypocrites around me."
Jane Quinlan looked down at Xavier, whose face was extremely ugly at this moment.
This must be what they call karma.
She felt he deserved it.
After finishing speaking, Kay Forrest saw that he was no longer needed and strolled into his office.
Before entering he said, "Jane Quinlan, send me the details of tomorrow’s work schedule later."
"Yes, Director Forrest."
Jane Quinlan turned around and returned to her desk as Xiaohua slid over to her side.
"How is it, all good now?"
Jane Quinlan nodded, "Yeah."
"That’s good then. You really scared me when you left this morning.
But... Director Forrest is really unusually good to you.
In such a situation, he still spoke up for you; I guess no one will gossip about you after this."
Jane Quinlan just smiled and kept her lips pressed together, but she felt a bit melancholic inside. For some reason, she always felt that her feelings for Kay Forrest were no longer simply those of a friend toward a friend.
She was just an ordinary woman, but seeing such an outstanding man, she... would be moved.
When it was time to leave work, everyone gradually left.
As soon as Eden Howard left, Xavier immediately followed her out.
Jane Quinlan sat at her desk feeling somewhat emotional; back then, he was so eager to dump her.
But now, being humiliated , he still clinged to Eden Howard.
When men decide to be despicable, really, no one can beat them.
Kay Forrest didn’t accompany her home tonight as he went to visit his father.
She could reach home by bus in just one stop, but at this moment she didn’t feel like riding the bus and wanted to walk alone.
Halfway home, her cell phone rang.
She quickly took out her phone and glanced at it. Seeing the number wasn’t Kay Forrest’s, she felt a slight sense of loss.
She answered the phone: "Hello, bro."
"Where are you? Come have dinner with me."
"Just you by yourself?"
Jane Quinlan nodded, got the address, and headed there by bus.
It was the same restaurant as last time; Benjamin Quinlan really had a unique preference for this place’s taste.
When she arrived, Benjamin Quinlan was already waiting for her at the restaurant entrance, and the two went in together, opting for a corner table instead of a private room this time.
