Chapter 406
On the 66th floor of the president's office
Lola walked out of the elevator. She looked so intimidating with her high-heel shoes. She would have made little noise since the carpet was thick and fluffy. But she was so mad that she stamped on it, thus producing a clanking sound.
At the door of the president's office, several secretaries on the secretary division hurriedly moved over to greet her the minute they saw her, "Mrs. Lola, hello! How are you?"
"Where is Harry right now?" She angrily stared at the pretty secretaries. She doesn't have time to chitchat. With six female assistants near him all the time, Harry might cheat on her very easily. Lola thought about this and became more upset.
They have seen Lola several times, but she was very kind back then. Yet this time, she looked so furious. Her sharp eyes were much like those of President Harry.
"The president.... is attending a meeting on the 22nd floor right now." One secretary answered her in a worried tone. She was wondering what's going on with Mrs. Lewis. She looked so strange and upset.
When the thought crossed her mind that Harry may have hired these beautiful assistants intentionally, Lola couldn't stop being angry.
After finding out where Harry was, she abruptly turned away and left.
On the other hand, the secretaries were all left confusingly staring at each other.
"Who is she?" A newly hired secretary asked curiously. Today was the first time she had seen Lola. For her, Lola was so brave and awesome because she had the guts to call their president directly by his name.
One senior secretary cast a glance at her and answered kindly, "She is the president's wife. Remember, you can irritate the president, but never her." They have all been told by Joey that Harry loved his wife very much. Even more than he loved himself.
That reply made the new assistant lower her head anxiously. Was that woman even scarier than the president?
In the meeting room on the 22nd floor
Lola stormed out of the elevator in a rage while Joey was talking about the meeting arrangements tomorrow with the secretaries.
Accidentally he noticed a familiar figure. At first, he thought he was wrong. But with a closer look, he realized that she was Lola indeed.
"Mrs. Lewis, what are you doing here?" He came over hastily.
Lola was wearing make-up? And high-heel shoes as well? He could hardly believe his eyes as Boss Lewis had forbidden her to wear these.
But with the make-up and high-heels, Lola didn't look like she was pregnant at all.
"Where is Harry? Tell me right now." She repeated this question again. Her voice was full of fury.
Joey was perplexed. He didn't know what was happening. So he just pointed to the closed-door meeting room and watched Lola walk over there.
Then he remembered they were having a meeting inside. So he ran over and tipped Lola, "Boss Lewis is having a meeting at this moment. Maybe you could wait for the meeting to be finished."
Lola glared at him as a response because she knew that Joey also played a part in lying to her. She walked straight as if she had not heard what Joey said.
Joey tried to stop her again, but it was too late.
The door of the room has been kicked open, banging the wall loudly.
Such loud noise threw the entire room into mere silence. They were bewildered.
Harry knitted his brows and gave a cold look on his face.
In the door stood a pretty woman with the most trendy clothes.
The sight of her softened Harry's eyes.
But Lola's rage soared to its peak when she saw Harry.
To everyone's astonishment, she gracefully but briskly walked to Harry. "Bam!" She threw the portfolio on the desk right in front of him.
"Harry, I have some severe problems to talk with you now. Should we talk here with everyone out, or in your office?" Her clear voice echoed in the whole meeting room.
Mrs. Lewis ruled over everyone. She dared to talk to Boss Lewis like that!
No wonder she was Harry's girl. She could even control him! It was rather unusual for Harry to cave in to someone.
...
The crowd held their breath. They dared not to gossip in public, but only speculated what was happening in their minds.
Harry sensed her anger and stood up from the chair. He smiled embarrassingly and said gently to Lola, "Honey, sit down first. Don't be mad." After letting her sit on the chair, he waved to the senior executives and signaled that they leave both of them alone for the meantime.
With his order, everyone went out with their belongings within just a couple of minutes.
Joey gently shut the door.
"Harry, I'm just too stupid to believe what you said before. All those sweet words were all lies!" Lola stood up angrily and glared at the stunned Harry.
"Honey, you are pregnant. Take care of the babies. Don't be mad. Let's talk this through, okay?" Harry comforted her patiently. He must keep her temper in place first, then solve the unknown problems.
Yet the mention of the babies just added more fuel to Lola's fire and fury. She sneered, "Babies? You know you are to be a father, right?" She raised her voice even more and added, "If you really love me and the babies, why do you have to cheat behind my back? Why do you have a mistress?"
A mistress? What was she talking about? Harry was totally dumbfounded. He didn't have any idea.
Lola glanced at his confused look, then sneered again and said sarcastically, "You're still pretending as if you know nothing about it? You are a really good actor. The Oscar owes you an Academy Award, Harry."
... Harry rubbed his forehead in confusion. What really happened to make his Lola this furious?
"Honey, don't be so angry now. Let me see the files that you have first." He helped Lola to sit on the chair again and picked up the files she brought.
Lola took a deep breath and kept murmuring to herself that she must calm down for the babies' sake.
Harry opened the bag while Lola looked closely at the expression on his face.
There were receipts of Daisy's mother's medical bills paid by him and the recent transfer of medicine fee to Daisy's account.
Seeing what's in it, Harry frowned, sneered, then threw it on the desk.
"These are the evidence. Harry, you're a scumbag. You're cheating on me and you even had the guts to deny it!" Lola slapped the desk in anger, then stood up and was about to leave.
Harry hastily pulled her back as a dark expression filled his eyes. He knew who was behind this---- Chuck. What a 'good' friend he was!
"Honey, honey, calm down. This is a mistake. It's not what you think it is!" He held her palm which just slapped the desk, and rubbed it to make it less painful. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
"Scumbag, we should file for a divorce. I don't want to be with you." That's the end of it all----divorce. She shook away Harry's hand angrily.
But Harry pulled her back in his arms and said lovingly, "Lola, it's a mistake. She is not my mistress. I can explain this. Let me explain first." When he bought the services of Daisy to bother Chuck, he had never thought Chuck would fight back with this.
Lola leaned against Harry and said coldly, "Explain? You don't need to explain, Harry. Everything is clear to me now!" The evidence were laid here clearly. What could he explain more?
"Sure, there is need for that. Or I will be wronged by Chuck." Why hasn't Chuck married Daisy yet? It seemed he should give them a push. A forceful push.
"You are wronged? The evidence is here. You are not wronged. I was the one who was fooled. You cheated on me." She struggled in his arms, unwilling to hear more explanations.
She was so stupid. She would never trust him again. Gosh, she was so foolish to believe in him again. Now, she just wanted to dig a hole and lie in there. She wanted to be away from the world and just be alone.
"I paid her to seduce Chuck." He explained hurriedly. He hoped Lola could cool off now as she shouldn't get angry. He was really worried about the babies.
