Chapter 419 The Title of Mrs. Lee's Is really Useful

When Rose returned to the company, she clearly felt that her colleagues' attitudes toward her were different.

They treated her very friendly, and even with awe, as if they were afraid of offending her.

Rose also raved that it was really nice to have a rich and powerful husband. The title of Mrs. Lee's was really useful. It could drive away those who had evil minds.

But she treated everyone as usual.

The first thing she needed to do now was to hand in her resignation to Matthew.

It was the second time she had quit, and she might never come back.

Matthew looked at the resignation letter Rose had put on his desk and felt a little depressed. "The day comes at last. I know that you will not come back this time. Losing such a capable subordinate and bosom friend as you is a great loss for me."

"Mr. Sue, even if I'm no longer your subordinate, we're still friends." Rose smiled and extended her hand to Matthew. "You're welcome to my place any time."

"Well, you've gotten used to be Mrs. Lee now." Matthew reached over to shake her hand. "Take care, Rose."

"You, too." Rose nodded, "Before I leave, I will try to finish the work and hand it over. Rest assured that I will not drop the ball."

"I never worry about that." Matthew appreciated Rose's way of working, so he was willing to make friends with her. "Since you are leaving, let's have a dinner together today."

"I'm not available tonight, but lunch is fine. I'll treat you." Rose released his hand and her eyes looked bright. She had recovered from the sad fact that her grandfather had passed away.

"Well, I'll ask my secretary to book a restaurant. We'll start at exactly eleven fifty." Matthew readily accepted the offer.

Rose went off to do her own business. She wanted to get everything done as soon as possible before she left.

At noon, Rose and Matthew had lunch together. The environment of the restaurant was very quiet. In the corner, a young girl was playing a piano, which was greatly pleasant to the ear.

"It's a nice place." Rose took a sip of lemonade.

"Yes, it's quiet and elegant," Matthew cut the steak.

"How is your mother? Have you worked things out with Miss Shaw?" Rose show some care for his recent situation.

Matthew gently put a small piece of steak in his mouth, and then he said slowly, "I went to the police station to pick up my mother that day and came home, and Velina cleared things up in front of my mother."

"She said I didn't have sex with her at all, so she and I are innocent. She also told my mother that she would not pester me and would apologize to me."

"My mother didn't say anything, but the next day she went home with Velina. Maybe she wouldn't intervene in my life anymore. Wyatt and I can live a peaceful life again. I suddenly felt that such life is happiest." Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Matthew smiled slightly. He raised the goblet and gave the wine a few slow shakes.

"Congratulations." Rose raised her glass to Matthew.

Matthew clinked his glass against hers and had a sip.

But suddenly, a loud sound sounded in the hall. And it attracted the attention of Rose and Matthew.

Two tables away, a waitress was slapped by a woman and fell to the ground with the drinks she was carrying.

Matthew paused a bit, but he didn't take a look at that waitress. And then he finished the wine in one gulp and put it down gently.

Rose felt the waitress was familiar, but she didn't remember where she had seen her.

"Lana George, if you dare to seduce my husband again, I won't just slap you." The noble woman wearing jewelries pinched the waitress's chin fiercely and said, "You have a beautiful face. But I would like to see how you are going to seduce men if you are disfigured. Shame on you!"

"Mrs. Harper, you mistook me. I did not seduce Mr. Harper. Mr. Harper said there's a shrew at home and thought I am gentle and considerate, so he always pesters me to drink and chat with him. Mrs. Harper should know better than I what kind of man Mr. Harper is..." In the face of the vicious women, Lana was not timid at all. "You can't keep your man by your side, so you pick on other women. How ridiculous it is."

"How... How shameful you are!!" Mrs. Harper was furious, and was about to slap Lana, "I have to tear you apart!"

"Are you going to hit me just because you can't outargue me?" Lana's beautiful eyes shone with a look of sarcasm.

Just as Mrs. Harper was going to hit Lana, her hand was caught in the air. She turned around and saw it was Matthew who was holding her arm. "Oh, it's Mr. Sue, you'd better not interfere into other's business! This woman is a seductress, and you'll be in bad luck if you are pestered by her."

"Mrs. Harper, don't go too far!" Matthew said coldly and shook her hand away.

"Mr. Sue, do you know how the men ended up with when they were with her? Some went bankrupt, some got divorced, and some even lost their lives... I hope Mr. Sue won't be the next one who will be in bad luck. And she deserves to be taught with a lesson!"

"Mrs. Harper, it's against the law to hit people!" Rose could not withstand it.

Mrs. Harper looked aside at Rose and warned her, "Take good care of your man, or it'll be too late when he's lured away."

"Mrs. Harper, Mr. Sue is only a friend of mine. My husband is Bright Lee. If he knows what you said..." Rose just smiled lightly and didn't finish the words. Her overtone was evident.

Rose never wanted to hold anyone down with her identity, but she wouldn't show any respect for a woman like Mrs. Harper.

When Mrs. Harper heard Bright's name, she unconsciously trembled and looked embarrassed.

"Oh, it's Mrs. Lee. I'm sorry that I didn't recognize you. Could you not put that in your heart? Don't upset Mr. Lee with this petty thing. I will punish myself."

With that, Mrs. Harper slapped herself on the mouth.

Rose looked indifferent and did not say a word, and Mrs. Harper did not dare stop.

Seeing Mrs. Harper's red and swollen face and mouth, Rose said, "Mrs. Harper, you'd better go to the doctor."

As if granted amnesty, Mrs. Harper fled with her friends.

Lana, supporting a table, stood up and looked at Rose and Matthew, "Mr. Sue, Mrs. Lee, thank you."

Matthew didn't respond, but made his way back to the table first.

Rose took a look at Matthew and then comforted Lana, "You're welcome. I can't bear to see others being so unreasonable. I don't think Mrs. Harper will really let it go. You have to be more carefu."

"I see." Lana then said, "Let me treat you the meal."

"Thanks, but not this time. Just continue with your work." Rose then turned and left.
