Chapter208
I ignored her and looked around the office to see if there were any
available seats.
At this moment, Kimberly suddenly clapped her hands to make everyone quiet down.
“Excuse me, everyone. Let me introduce you to Esmeralda, Ms. Duffy.”
She was specifically hired by me to do odd jobs for us, so you can assign her any dirty or difficult tasks.
After all, she was also carning a salary and couldn’t just eat for free, don’t you all agree?
“Wow, Mr. Humphrey is indeed so kind and generous. He even arranged a job for her.”
“Yeah, if she were my ex–wife, I would have kicked her out a long time ago.”
“Tsk, you didn’t see her suitcase, she must have been crying and wailing in front of Mr. Humphrey, saying she had nowhere to stay, no way to survive. That’s when Mr. Humphrey pitied her and gave her a job.”
I ignored their mocking remarks and silently went to the farthest corner with my suitcase.
I just took a look around, and there are no extra workstations in the office. Only this corner has a slightly larger space where one workstation can be placed.
Moreover, this corner was the farthest from the president’s office.
I took a short break and then went to the Personnel Department to get a desk and chairs.
The warehouse was on the second floor.
The chair was fine, it could be pushed to take the elevator, but the table was a bit difficult to get up.
I asked the staff in charge of the warehouse if they could help me bring the table into the elevator.
But none of them paid any attention to me.
Well, everyone in this company knew about my relationship with Reynaldo, and they all knew that Reynaldo despised me.
If I wanted them to have a good attitude towards me, I had to make Reynaldo treat me well.
But that was almost an impossible thing.
Finally, I struggled alone to move and drag that table to the entrance of the elevator.
Just as the elevator door opened, I was about to push the table inside, but I froze.
In the elevator, it was not someone else, but Winston.
There was also a man standing beside him, wearing a mask and a hat, who looked like Anton.
“Ralda?”
Winston looked at me in shock.
Immediately, a trace of excitement appeared on his handsome face.

“Ralda, where have you been all this time? You even changed your phone number. I’ve been looking for you everywhere.”
I was also full of surprise.
I unexpectedly ran into Winston at Reynaldo’s company.
But on second thought, it’s not surprising that Winston is here, considering their previous collaboration.
The man wearing a mask suddenly glanced at the table in front of me and. asked faintly. “What are you doing?”
Listening to this voice, it really is Anton.
I remember Lavonne mentioned before that Anton is now the most popular male celebrity in the entertainment industry.
No wonder he had to wear a mask and a hat, otherwise the front of Reynaldo Company would have been blocked by entertainment reporters.
“Yeah, Ralda, what are you doing?” Winston asked me again.
I pursed my lips and said, “I was moving to my workstation.”
“Your workstation?” Winston furrowed his brows, and then, his gaze burning like a torch, he stared at me. “What do you mean? You want to work under his command?”
I nodded faintly without saying a word.
“Ralda!” he suddenly grabbed my shoulder, sounding both angry and anxious. “Why did you come to his company? Isn’t my company good enough? Whatever he’s offering you, I’m willing to double it, just name your price, no matter how much, I’ll give it to you.”
“It wasn’t a salary issue.”
I pushed away his hand and for a moment, I didn’t know what to say. “Actually, it doesn’t matter where you work, it’s never really about the job.”
“That’s different, with that layer of relationship between you, and the way you treated him before, he would definitely take advantage of work matters to bully you.”
“Ralda, listen to me, you can go anywhere you want, just don’t go to his company and don’t have any more involvement with him, okay?”
I shook my head and said softly, “Thank you for your kindness, but please don’t bother with my matters.“.
Winston’s body stiffened.
He forced a bitter smile and said, “Are you still blaming me? Blaming me for intentionally sending you to him that night to seek investment, right?”
That night…
That night seemed like it had already passed a long time ago.
Since that night, I started running away, but no matter how much I wandered, I eventually came back here.
Winston stared at me intently, his expression filled with bitterness.
