Chapter 26: Chapter 26: A Glib Tongue Deserves a Lesson
At five thirty, William Griffith’s car stopped at the entrance of “Demon Manga” comic book company. Today, he was driving a low-key Cayenne, so it didn’t attract any attention.
Lewis sat in the car next to him, looking at his dad, feeling a bit annoyed. It was clearly his own idea to have dinner with Auntie Cherish, yet he had to drag
along!
“Aren’t you getting out?”
“Dad, why don’t you go up and call her yourself?”
“You don’t want the Moore Manor toy set anymore?” Soone raised an eyebrow deliberately.
Alright, Lewis glanced at William Griffith and accepted his fate. Who else could deal with such an unscrupulous father?
Lewis, who was naturally very cute and handso, got out of the car and imdiately attracted attention.
It was ti to get off work, and the little guy was wearing a military green coat, his hair slick and shiny, and even wearing a pair of small sunglasses, which was a real eye-catcher.
“Where did this cute little boy co from? He’s so handso!”
“Yeah, he looks just like the character I’ve been drawing recently in my developnt comics!”
A few girls cast sidelong glances and whispered to each other, wishing they could strike up a conversation, but Lewis was particularly cool, hands in his pockets, and not looking at them.
Just then, Cherish Turner ca down the elevator, and as soon as the door opened, she saw the little guy.
“Auntie Cherish!”
As soon as Lewis saw Cherish Turner, he ran over and hugged her.
“Lewis? How co you’re here, where’s your dad?”
“Dad is waiting for you in the car! We’re waiting for that big al you promised!”
Cherish Turner was embarrassed. In fact, she didn’t want to treat them to a big al at all. What hadn’t the CEO eaten before? Besides, she didn’t have the money to treat them to a grand al, but a casual al would be fine.
A few colleagues passed by, hearing a little bit of the conversation, and beca curious: “Cherish, who is this adorable little baby to you?”
“Um, a friend’s child.”
“Hehe, what kind of friend? Seems like a guy, right?”
A few people began to tease, while Yara King sneered maliciously!
“Haha, Cherish Turner, is this kid so close to you because you’re playing the role of a ho wrecker? Hahaha…”
“Yara King, what kind of language is that?” Cherish Turner had wanted to ignore her, but Yara King kept targeting her and making unpleasant remarks. It was hard for soone with her fiery temperant to tolerate!
“What’s wrong with the way I talk? Can’t you understand it? Cherish Turner, don’t think I don’t know that you got a permanent position today because Editor-in-Chief Davis called you. How did you earn that? I know it very well. What happened, did you climb into the bed of a rich man? But for soone like you, what else do you have besides selling yourself out?”
Several people around sensed the tense situation and started to gather around. They saw Cherish Turner standing there, holding onto little Lewis, looking upset.
“Apologize!”
Just as Yara King was mocking her and thinking that her silence ant she was admitting to it, Cherish Turner suddenly spoke in a deep voice. Her commanding presence stunned everyone who was watching.
She was really angry now!
“Apologize? What a joke! I didn’t say anything wrong; why should I apologize? This little guy even said that his dad is waiting for you!”
“I told you to apologize! The truth is not what you said, so you must apologize!”
“Cherish Turner, just because soone’s backing you up doesn’t an you’re great. You’ve done sothing disgraceful, yet you’re afraid I’ll say it? I’ll say it: you’re a mistress, a married man’s mistress—”
Slap!
Suddenly, there was a piercing sound, and Yara King was stunned with her hand over her swelling cheek, unable to believe it!
Cherish Turner, who was usually soft and gentle, actually hit her?!
