Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Stunning Wanda Quincy with a Slap

A cold, domineering CEO falls in love with a junior employee and even chauffeurs her around in a luxury car.

If word of this got out, countless people would be green with envy!

The supervisor’s gaze on Vivian Quincy was burning with an indescribable envy.

Vivian Quincy thought, ’I don’t even know Jasper Ford, okay?!’

’In love? Does the supervisor have any idea what horrible things Jasper Ford did just last night to humiliate me?!’

Vivian Quincy and Jasper Ford were fated to be enemies. He was the person she dreamed of strangling, and she figured the feeling was mutual.

The supervisor couldn’t read the situation and assumed Vivian Quincy was having an affair with their high-and-mighty CEO, so her attitude toward her became incredibly attentive.

Vivian Quincy tried to explain a few times to no avail, so she just gave up. They wouldn’t believe her anyway. ’Might as well get back to work and try to earn some extra overtime pay.’

A few employees watched Vivian Quincy walk away, their eyes filled with envy. "Vivian Quincy got fired and still managed to come back. I wonder what kind of spell she cast on the president. She’s really something else!"

"That’s nothing. I heard she got into the president’s car last night! And that they attended a high-class banquet arm in arm!"

"I don’t know what the president is thinking. How could he fall for a factory girl like her?" the group said sourly.

The supervisor came out and scolded them. "Is all your work done? You still have time to stand around gossiping? Or do you not want to work anymore?"

Startled, the employees scrambled back to work. Fueled by their resentment toward Vivian Quincy, they became lazy, basically leaving all the work for her. When the supervisor wasn’t around, they’d even drop everything, relying on their seniority to sit around, cracking melon seeds while they watched Vivian work.

Vivian Quincy couldn’t earn a base salary, so her only option was to do more to earn overtime pay. She didn’t complain, but her non-confrontational attitude was seen by others as just an act.

"She’s such a good actress. No wonder the president fell for her, she plays the part so well," one of the employees sneered.

Wanda Quincy, who had just come from the hospital with a report in hand to cause trouble for Vivian Quincy, happened to overhear the employees. Her heavily made-up face instantly turned pale. She walked over and demanded, "Say what you just said again."

The two cracking melon seeds turned around, startled, and immediately stood up. "Miss Quincy, what are you doing here?"

Wanda Quincy repeated, "Say it again!"

The two employees glanced at each other in a panic and quickly lowered their heads. "We’re sorry, Miss Quincy. We weren’t saying anything. You must have misheard."

"I clearly heard you say the president has taken a liking to someone. Who is it? Tell me the truth, or I’ll have you all fired!" Wanda Quincy commanded arrogantly, her voice sharp.

Unable to hide it any longer, they quickly said, "We were talking about Vivian Quincy."

"Her again?" Wanda Quincy’s eyes narrowed. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

One of the employees said, "Last night, I saw Vivian Quincy get into the president’s car with Caden Chandler. Miss Quincy, the president has never been involved with another woman all these years, so we suspect Vivian Quincy seduced him..."

Hearing this, Wanda Quincy’s breath hitched, and she found it hard to breathe.

The one thing she had tried so hard to prevent was Vivian Quincy getting involved with Jasper Ford!

Wanda Quincy swayed, steadying herself against the wall as a powerful fear crept up from her heels...

"Miss Quincy, what’s wrong?" The two employees were frightened and rushed forward to support her.

Wanda Quincy pushed them away, took a deep breath, and stood up straight. "Never mention what happened today again. I am the fiancée of the Ford Family, the future Young Madam. It’s impossible for President Ford to be interested in Vivian Quincy. Do you understand!"

"We know we were wrong," the two apologized.

After dismissing the two, Wanda Quincy strode directly toward Vivian Quincy in the distance and demanded, "Where were you last night?"

"None of your business." Vivian Quincy glanced at the newcomer before looking away.

Wanda Quincy said, "My mother came to see you yesterday. It seems you didn’t listen to a single word she said. Since you’re so eager to not be associated with us, then please keep your mouth shut in the future. Don’t you dare say you know me. I don’t want to be associated with a poor relative like you."

"Ha!" Vivian Quincy couldn’t help but laugh. "Who’s the one who keeps showing up every other day to cause me trouble? If you had any shame, you wouldn’t be able to say something like that."

"How dare you curse at me!" Wanda Quincy grew angry and raised her hand to strike her.

Vivian Quincy quickly grabbed her wrist, used her momentum to push her, and Wanda Quincy stumbled into the corner of a table. Her exquisite face twisted in pain, the color draining from her lips.

"I still haven’t returned the slap I got yesterday because of Fiona Hughes. I don’t mind if you pay her debt for her," Vivian Quincy warned her.

"Are you rebelling now?!" Wanda Quincy fumed. Having been pampered since birth, when had she ever been humiliated by a lowlife like Vivian Quincy?

She rushed forward and went straight for Vivian Quincy’s face, ready to fight!

But Vivian Quincy wasn’t one to be trifled with. She caught Wanda Quincy’s flailing hand and, SLAP, landed a crisp slap.

Wanda Quincy was completely stunned.

"You bitch, I’ll kill you!" Wanda Quincy went berserk, her face contorted with rage as she lunged at Vivian Quincy.

Just then, an employee walked in. Vivian Quincy said, "Go ahead and hit me, Miss Quincy. If word of this gets out, I wonder what the high-and-mighty CEO of Imperium Group will think of you? Will he see you as a common shrew, or as a vicious harpy?"

Wanda Quincy’s body went rigid. She froze on the spot, trembling with rage.

’You little bitch, I’ll get you for this sooner or later!’

Wanda Quincy silently cursed in her heart. She decided it was best not to cause a huge scene right now; otherwise, Jasper Ford would only despise her more.

The most urgent task was to secure her position as the future Young Madam of the Ford Family. After that, crushing Vivian Quincy would be as easy as flipping her hand!

"You just wait!"

Leaving behind a warning, Wanda Quincy left in a fury. She took the elevator all the way to the 77th floor but was stopped by Caden Chandler as she tried to enter the president’s office.

Jasper Ford had no desire to see Wanda Quincy, but she wasn’t easily put off. Knowing the Ford Family cared about appearances, she just kept crying until Jasper Ford grew impatient and finally let her into his office.

"Jasper, this is the medical report I just got from the hospital. I’ve never been pregnant or given birth. Look, I didn’t lie to you," Wanda Quincy said cautiously.

Jasper Ford couldn’t be bothered with her. He leaned back in his executive chair, his long, fair fingers wearily rubbing his temples. Seeing this, Wanda Quincy hurried over, wanting to give him a massage, but a sharp glare from the man sent her stumbling backward in fear.

"Are you finished?" The man’s voice was magnetic and incredibly alluring.

Wanda Quincy nodded. "Our engagement..."

"It’s canceled. You can leave," Jasper Ford said decisively.

Wanda Quincy bit her lip and shook her head, tears streaming down her face like a broken dam. "No, I don’t want to. Why cancel it? You’ve seen the proof. I didn’t lie to you."

"You’ve gotten everything you deserved over the years. Don’t push your luck," Jasper Ford reminded her heartlessly.

Wanda Quincy’s eyes reddened as she sobbed her heart out. "How am I pushing my luck? A girl’s most important asset is her reputation, her innocence! No amount of money can make up for that. I gave you my first time, and now you want to abandon me! How am I supposed to live?!"

Jasper Ford was extremely irritated. He hated it most when Wanda Quincy brought up her ’first time.’ The coldness and annoyance in his eyes filled his entire aura with a powerful, oppressive pressure. "Wanda Quincy, what else do you want?"

"I want the position of the Young Madam of the Ford Family! It’s what I deserve! I gave you the most important thing I have, so on what grounds can you refuse to marry me?!" Wanda Quincy questioned hysterically. Her tears had ruined her exquisite makeup, and she was a pathetic, crying mess.

Seeing this, Jasper Ford only grew more annoyed.

’Such a shrill woman is truly detestable. Not at all like the girl from six years ago!’

Impatiently, Jasper Ford called for Caden Chandler. "Take her away."

Caden Chandler bowed slightly and said to Wanda Quincy, "Miss Quincy, the president needs to work. Please come with me and wait outside."

Wanda Quincy didn’t move. Her tear-filled eyes looked pitifully at Jasper Ford as she choked out, "I don’t know why you’d believe the nonsense of a stranger. That child is obviously a liar. He’s a monster! You should be punishing him, not breaking off our engagement!"

"If even you won’t believe me, then I don’t want to live anymore. A girl who’s lost her innocence might as well be dead."

Wanda Quincy stumbled to her feet, wiping her tears as she walked out of the president’s office.

The others who saw this couldn’t help but feel sorry for her.

"Oh my god, Miss Quincy is so pitiful."

"She’s been with the president for six years, only to be... Oh no, Miss Quincy has fainted!"

Sobbing uncontrollably, Wanda Quincy collapsed to the floor. As she fell, she knocked over a plant in a glass vase. The vase shattered, slicing her hand open. Blood gushed from the cut, and the onlookers screamed in terror. Caden Chandler immediately rushed forward to help her.

Wanda Quincy tearfully pushed Caden Chandler away. "Don’t touch me. Just let me die."
