Chapter 8
After booking a private room, I called Bethany to tell her the good news, and we were ready to celebrate.
Suddenly, my phone rang. It was Mrs. Quinn.
I answered the call, and her voice, filled with blame, came through.
“Sarah, I heard you and Joshua were competing for a bid? Can you… give this opportunity to Joshua…”
Although I had experienced her shamelessness in my past life, I was still a little shocked to hear this.
Give it to him? The results were out, the contract was signed, and now she had the audacity to ask me to give it to him?
“Auntie watched you grow up, she knows you’re a good girl… you wouldn’t bear to see Joshua in a difficult position, would you?”
I didn’t want to waste any more words, so I hung up the phone and blocked her as well.
I actually forgot about this loose end
Arriving at the private room, Bethany was clearly already waiting for a while.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
I didn’t hide anything, and told her about Mrs. Quinn’s call, recounting the conversation word for word.
She was furious.
“What kind of people are the Quinn family! Everyone in the industry knows that Joshua is a good-for-nothing loser! My Liam would have to be blind to fall for him!”
I remembered how, in my past life, after learning that I was going to marry Joshua, Bethany had hugged me and cried, saying that Joshua was not worthy of me.
And after my death, it was Bethany who rushed over first to protect my body and notify my parents.
Suppressing the bitterness in my heart, I held Bethany’s hand.
“Bethany, don’t worry, I won’t let them take advantage of me!”
