Chapter 417
“But you’re still the one who will suffer the most from this,” Angel could not help but feel indignant. “But there’s nothing we can do. It’s just that Michelle has connections. But with her capabilities, why doesn’t she find someone else to connect her with Nash? Why make it so difficult for you?”
“She just wants to show me who is the boss, to let me know that in this department, no one can resist her!” Nina replied.
Angel continued curiously, “Nina, earlier you said you’re Nash’s wife. Is that true?”
Nina paused, setting aside her phone before responding, “Yes, but not for long.
“Let’s go, we should head back,” she said, rising with her bag in hand.
Still bewildered, Angel tried to make sense of it all. She thought to herself, “It’s like she said yes, but then she didn’t. I don’t quite understand the reason behind it.”
Nina did not elaborate further, and Angel decided not to press. They returned to the office.
Michelle and her lackeys were already celebrating in advance.
“Michelle, did you really manage to arrange a meeting with Nash?” one of the lackeys exclaimed. “I knew you would pull it off!”
“When are we going? What should I prepare? I’ve never met such a big shot before. Michelle, can I stand next to you?” another lackey eagerly asked.
Michelle haughtily snorted, “It’ll be in the next few days. I’ll take you two along. You need to broaden your horizons and learn from me!”
“Got it. We’ll definitely learn a lot from you!”
Michelle boasted extravagantly, aiming to showcase her prowess while basking in the limelight. “Nash is unlike anyone else. His influence in the capital is unmatched. Securing an exclusive interview with him is a truly rare opportunity. Even a small connection with him could pave the way for a life of happiness and comfort.”
“Michelle, you’re amazing!” Colleagues overheard Michelle’s accomplishment of securing an exclusive interview with Nash and joined in to congratulate her. “Michelle, you’re incredible! Anything that falls into your hands gets sorted out. If you pull off this task, you have to treat us all to a meal.”
“No problem, it’s just a small matter. I remember those who are good to me,” Michelle replied, hinting that it was in everyone’s best interest not to oppose her.
“We’ll be waiting for your good news. Looking forward to you leading us in the future!” Others chimed in, sensing the shift in power dynamics that might occur if Michelle becomes the chief editor. Returning to hear such remarks stung, and Angel could not help but feel slapped in the face. Her face turned green with frustration. Meanwhile, Nina remained unfazed, casually passing by but catching Michelle’s veiled remarks.
“Of course,” Michelle replied nonchalantly, “as long as someone doesn’t go around talking big without the skills to back it up, making everyone embarrassed and unable to get anything done, only to end up causing trouble for me.”
“Who’s causing you trouble, Michelle?” colleagues asked, curious about the implied drama.
Michelle glanced at Nina and smirked. “Nothing worth mentioning. I’m a magnanimous person, I don’t hold grudges.”
Passing by Nina, Michelle whispered, “Don’t forget, make arrangements with me in these two days.” With that, she returned to her workstation, leaving Nina to check her phone, where she found a message from Nash.
