“A guest in the toilet?” Daniel Thompson forced a smile, “What are you talking about I don’t understand. How could there be someone else in the toilet? Amanda, don’t scare me.”
“Don’t you know whether you’re scared or not?” Amanda Leaford’s eyes crinkled with amusement.
Daniel Thompson’s heart nearly jumped out of his chest in anxiety.
How did Amanda know?!
Seeing Daniel Thompson’s rigid and disbelieving expression, Amanda Leaford stood up and walked towards the toilet.
Daniel Thompson subconsciously stopped her and stammered, “Amanda Sit down, I’ll go check.”
Amanda Leaford didn’t move, crossed her arms, and watched him with amusement as he walked to the toilet.
Before Daniel Thompson could even grasp the doorknob, the door swung open.
Phoebe Belmont gracefully walked out from inside.
Upon seeing Phoebe, Daniel Thompson’s face could only be described as “extremely ugly.”
Phoebe didn’t leave?!
She had so many chances to leave, but she insisted on staying!
Daniel Thompson was furious.
“Phoebe, how come you’re here?”
At this point, he could only pretend to be ignorant.
Hearing that, Phoebe lowered her eyes and chuckled to herself.
Men’s brains were too simple. The moment she walked out of the toilet, Amanda Leaford would never forgive him.
Amanda Leaford must be furious at this moment. Phoebe looked at Amanda smugly, only to find her smiling and taking off her apron without any emotional turmoil.
“Since you’re here, sit down and eat,” she said to Phoebe, pointing at the dishes on the table. “I made enough for three people.”
Phoebe: ” ”
What was happening? Why wasn’t Amanda Leaford angry?
The big scene she had imagined, the divorce, the falling out, the fight didn’t happen. Not only that, but Amanda Leaford was also surprisingly kind and friendly
With Daniel Thompson’s angry gaze, Phoebe could only awkwardly sit down at the table.
Amanda Leaford served her a bowl of rice.
Staring at the bowl, Phoebe dared not touch the chopsticks.
Seemingly thinking of something, fear appeared in her eyes.
Amanda Leaford saw through everything, and took some rice from Phoebe’s bowl and ate it: “Don’t worry, it’s not poisoned.”
The atmosphere was tense. Daniel Thompson walked over, glaring at Phoebe with immense dissatisfaction: “Do you think the Boss would poison the food she personally made for you? Phoebe, what the hell is going on in your head!”
Phoebe’s face turned red with embarrassment.
She had regretted not provoking Amanda Leaford’s anger, and now she couldn’t even bring herself to eat the food made by her love rival!
What if it wasn’t poisoned, but something else was in the food?
Amanda Leaford quietly ate her meal, seemingly oblivious to Phoebe’s struggle. Daniel Thompson beside her was even more restless.
He had to hold steady!
Now he was a dementia patient. Yes, he had dementia. As long as he continued to play the part and act as if he and Phoebe were just colleagues, Amanda wouldn’t get angry.
He secretly glanced at Amanda Leaford, only to find her expressionless, as if not caring about his relationship with Phoebe at all.
Amanda Leaford’s calmness and understanding made him feel uneasy, as if he had lost something important.
If she was angry, it would mean that she still cared about him, but now he felt like a stranger to her.
Daniel Thompson began to reflect on Amanda Leaford’s recent behavior and realized that although she appeared gentle and virtuous, she was more like someone doing a task.
She showed neither joy nor sorrow, as if she would disappear in the next second.
Phoebe sat awkwardly, her eyes full of grievances.
Every time she and Amanda Leaford clashed, Daniel Thompson always sided with Amanda.
Almost only Amanda Leaford was eating this meal.
Phoebe felt like her attack was like punching cotton. She couldn’t bring herself to tell Amanda that she liked her husband. Staying here already took so much courage, and if she pushed further, Daniel Thompson might slap her on the spot.
She never expected that Amanda Leaford wouldn’t get angry or annoyed, and would even ask her to sit down and eat.
After Amanda Leaford finished eating, Daniel Thompson immediately stood up and offered to wash the dishes. Phoebe also stood up.
“I should leave first. I came today to report to Mr. Thompson about work. I’m sorry for borrowing your toilet, and thank you for your hospitality. The dishes you made were delicious ” She forced that compliment out.
Though she didn’t want to eat this meal, she was forced to praise Amanda Leaford and even took a few symbolic bites.
Whether it was psychological or not, Phoebe suddenly felt a dull pain in her stomach.
Before Daniel Thompson could get angry, she practically ran out.
As soon as she stepped out the hotel door, her cell phone dinged, indicating a text message from Daniel Thompson.
She opened her cell phone and saw the eye-catching words: “Phoebe, you’re fired.”
Fired
Phoebe never expected that Daniel Thompson would be so ruthless as to actually fire her.
