Chapter 70 Your Wife Is With Another Man
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
Who didn’t know that the Design Department had to clean up Lisa’s mess, and yet. Lisa, who made the mistake, remained unscathed. The boss even had to attend the charity dinner she hosted in the evening. It’s true, not all people are treated the same.
As Renee from the Secretary Department was going around in circles, Lisa’s position here remained solid.
Renee said nonchalantly, “I have a bit of a headache, after all, I was wiping someone’s ass.”
When she uttered these sarcastic words, the colleagues around who were listening to the gossip gasped. It was too sharp.
Lisa’s face almost gave away her emotions, she could only lower her voice: “I hope you can still be this arrogant a week from now.”
After speaking, Lisa left with a cold face. She looked at the tightly closed – office door, a trace of anxiety flashing in her eyes. She had clearly agreed to attend the charity dinner tonight, but she couldn’t get in touch with Quincy at all, so she had to come and look for him.
Fortunately, Quincy, the manager of the Secretary Department, left early He had to attend a banquet in the evening, and the location was right where she held her charity dinner.
What else could there be, besides going to one’s own party?
Lisa breathed a slight sigh of relief and headed straight for the dinner location.

After Lisa left, Renee calmly returned to her seat to pack up her things, completely ignoring the gossiping glances from her colleagues.
She just wanted to work hard and focus on making money now.
Renee descended the stairs with her canvas bag, ready to take the subway. However, a car pulled up beside her. The window rolled down to reveal a handsome, mature face: “Ms. Braun, get in.”
Was it actually Owen?
She hesitated for a moment, feeling that refusal would seem too pretentious. She decisively opened the car door and sat in, “Mr. Morton, were you discussing work in the area today?”
“I specifically came to pick you up.”
“Hahaha, Mr. Patel is just too kind, then I will shamelessly take advantage of his generosity.”
Renee laughed it off and got away with it.
Owen wore a smile, his mature features as charming as aged wine, which would surely captivate any ordinary woman. However, Renee had just crawled out of the pit that was Quincy, a despicable man, and she kept her distance from this type of man.
Especially successful, young, and handsome elite men! Toxic!
Owen’s smile didn’t fade, “What do you want to eat tonight?”
“Actually, it was Mr. Morton who saved me last time, I should be the one treating you. I’ve always wanted to properly thank you for saving my life.”
“Fine, I won’t argue with you either.”
The man was very straightforward, Renee breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the other party understood.

She didn’t want to develop any ambiguous relationships, she just wanted to make money.
Until the vehicle stopped outside a restaurant, Renee saw the restaurant sign – Le Classique, and the corner of her mouth stiffened for a moment.
Le Classique, however, was famously expensive.
The restaurant’s prices were vastly different from its name.
Renee laughed a bit reluctantly, standing by the side of the road, “Mr. Morton, is it too late for me to take back what I just said?”
After this meal, she was absolutely broke and swamped with debt.
What is face, can it be eaten? Obviously not!
The man turned to the side, giving her a careful once–over, “Ms. Braun, you’re quite interesting.”
In fact, he didn’t have the habit of letting women pay either. There had been women in the past who offered to pay, but nothing really changed in the end. However, Renee was the first woman to back out at the door, outright refusing to go.
It was a bit embarrassing, but also very honest.
Renee forced a smile, “I’m just telling the truth. With my income level, I really can’t afford to treat you to a meal here.”
“Is this the sincerity of Ms. Braun towards her lifesaver?”
Owen was a bit confused. Even if this woman divorced Quincy, she
should have received a considerable amount of property. She wouldn’t be so poor that she couldn’t afford a meal.
Could it be that Quincy was so stingy?

Renee quickly explained, “No, actually my cooking is quite delicious. If Mr. Patel doesn’t mind, you could try my cooking next time when there’s a chance.”
“Alright, hopefully Ms. Braun won’t change her mind again this time.”
Renee could only force a silly smile and finally followed Owen into the restaurant, after all, poverty limits ambition.
But as soon as she walked in, a discreet Volkswagen parked across the street. The two men in the car looked at each other, “Should we tell Mr. Patel?”
They were there to secretly protect the lady’s safety, but unexpectedly, they encountered the lady going out to dinner with another man. In this case, the nature of the situation changed.
“Maybe Mr. Patel knew?”
When he said this, he himself didn’t believe it.
Was this being said, or is it still being said?
What if Mr. Patel really was cuckolded and decided to silence them later?
Inside the restaurant, the VIP room.
The two dined together, and Renee found the man to be approachable. The range of his conversation was wide, as if he could talk about anything.
Honestly, being with a man like this was much more relaxing.
Unlike the dog–like man Quincy, who always had a cold expression on his face, as if someone owed him a lot of money and hadn’t paid him back.

Renee saw Owen’s secretary walk in, whisper something, and the man across changed his expression, quickly regaining his composure.
He looked at himself and said, “Ms. Braun, it seems that Mr. Patel cares a lot about you.”
“What did that mean?”
Renee saw Owen put down the hand towel and whispered, “There’s a car outside, it’s been following us since you left the company, and it’s still waiting outside the restaurant. My people thought they were paparazzi, but now we’ve found out they’re bodyguards, Quincy’s men.”
Renee was stunned.
Did he mean that Quincy had someone tailing and watching him?
