Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife

Chapter 81

Madeline felt aggrieved now. How would he feel remorseful?

Even if he did, it was already too late.

…

Madeline slowly got used to her new working environment. Her colleagues were friendly and they were discussing a celebration for Madeline the newbie during lunch. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

When it was lunchtime, everyone was discussing what they wanted to eat when the department manager, Elizabeth Snow walked over.

Elizabeth was very beautiful and young. She was dressed in a very stylish outfit as well. When she walked in, she clapped her hands and said with a serious face. “We just accepted a very important project. The current rising influencer, Lolly Tate is about to get engaged with her boyfriend. They came to Mr. Whitman and asked us to design a pair of couple rings, a necklace, and a bracelet for them. They placed a ten-million-dollar customization fee. If we have this deal, our department can get a 10% award bonus.”

“Wow!”

“Does it mean every one of us will get tens of thousands?”

Everyone was elated and Madeline felt excited as well. She loved jewelry design and she only liked it because of Jeremy.

“So, you guys should just have a simple lunch and don’t eat out. We only have one month.” Elizabeth told them that they did not have much time. “Please look at the requirements for the project that I just

sent to your emails.”

Everyone understood, but the huge bonus also played a huge part in this. They felt that anything would taste delicious when they got that money. So, everyone went back to their work stations.

Madeline was not hungry so she opened her inbox.

When she was about to read the content, Elizabeth walked to her.

“Are you Elizabeth Crawford?” She asked.

Madeline stood up quickly and smiled. “Hello, Miss Snow. I’m Madeline Crawford.”

“So it’s you…” Elizabeth started looking at her up and down in interest.

Madeline felt uneasy but she still maintained her polite smile. After a while, Elizabeth asked in curiosity, “I heard you served three years in prison because of plagiarism, is that true?”

After she said that, the office plummeted into silence.

More than then employees looked over at Madeline at the same time.

Designers looked down on people who plagiarize the most. Madeline could feel her colleagues who used to treat her pleasantly all looking at her differently now.

Madeline kept her cool and continued smiling. “I never plagiarized.”

“If you didn’t, why did the judge declare you guilty?” Elizabeth asked. She raised an eyebrow. “Never mind, you’re fortunate that you have support, but I want to remind you that I look down on plagiarizing thieves the most. Now that you’re in my department, don’t try to do what you did before. If not, I won’t go easy on you.”

Elizabeth rolled her eyes. After she warned Madeline, she walked away while clicking her heels.

Madeline stood on her ground and felt her colleagues looking at her with suspicious gazes. She felt aggrieved and helpless.

God loved playing tricks on her. She just saw the light and now he decided to put it out.

She sighed softly in self-mockery. She walked to the door to get some air. When she got to the door, she saw someone walking toward her.

Madeline was beyond shocked when she saw her.

It was Eloise.

When she saw Eloise, she felt an unknown friendliness rising in her chest. Even though their relationship was a little rocky because of Meredith, Madeline still greeted her politely. “Mrs. Montgomery.”

However, when Eloise saw Madeline, her face fell. She lifted her hand and slapped Madeline across the face immediately.

When everyone in the office saw this, they ran out to watch what happened in shock.
