Chapter 6

Author: Sweetie Moore
Gianna continued, "You will start over from the bottom-most rung as an intern and learn all of the company's standard operating procedures again!"

Shane pretended to be shocked. He tugged on Gianna's sleeve and said in a low voice, "Gianna, I don't think that's a good idea. The project is almost complete. I'm sure that Brandon has still contributed a lot in terms of effort."

Gianna gave me the once-over like an arrogant little peacock before scoffing.

"If everyone were to report to someone as petty as him, nobody would ever be as good as you. He's the one who can't even hold a candle to you!

"Shane, you will be put in charge of Brandon's project from today onward. You will be the project manager in his place!"

A greedy look immediately appeared on Shane's face. Yet, he pretended to reject her offer and said, "But Gianna, I don't think that's quite a good idea. I'm still young and inexperienced…"

The other colleagues around me, who had been working there for quite a while, could t

    For some reason, Gianna stopped frowning and just coughed lightly instead."Are you still jealous of Shane, and is that why you're saying his product is bad? Fine. Since you saved my life, I'll be generous and let you return to the company."A malicious look crossed Shane's eyes. He bit his lip and smiled, saying, "But Gigi, Brandon has already found himself a new girlfriend at his new company. Why would he want to come back?"Gianna just scoffed and said, "That's enough, Brandon. Are you still trying to keep the act going? I've already heard from others that she is just your superior and you're just her subordinate. I can't believe that you'd purposely ask your colleague to pretend to be your girlfriend just to make me jealous!"I frowned and tried warning her again for the final time. "Did you not realize that your product went out of control just now—"This time, Gianna lost her composure and interrupted me. "That's enough! Are you done slandering Shane yet? Let me tell you som

    The photo showed the two of us at the amusement park, with Ingrid making a silly, provocative face next to me.The caption she posted said, "Dear ex-wife, please stop bothering me. I've met someone new."…As expected, Gianna didn't send me any more text messages after that.I thought that things were finally going to end there between us, and that I would not run into her again.However, my new boss then told Ingrid and me to attend the tech summit in my hometown as participants.I knew then that I would bump into Gianna whether I liked it or not.I thought that we would be able to remain professional with each other and set aside our personal lives. However, Ingrid rubbed her hands gleefully and told me that she was going to teach Gianna a lesson.During the dinner event at the expo, Ingrid suddenly said that she was cold. I draped my coat around her shoulders and suddenly heard a loud scoff from behind us."Hah! I see some people know how to treat a woman right."I recogni

    A flash of disappointment appeared in Gianna's face when she realized that I wasn't reacting to her situation.Her body seemed to grow limp, and she finally signed the divorce agreement.I grabbed my things and turned, leaving the office, never to look back again.This time, Gianna didn't come after me.…I managed to make it in time for my flight and soon arrived at Byte Tech, which was situated 600 miles away from home.After getting onboarded at the company, my patents were quickly acknowledged, and my salary quickly skyrocketed in a short amount of time.Before I knew it, a month had passed.I was accompanying my new supervisor, Ingrid Fontaine, to a contract signing when my phone wouldn't stop buzzing in my pocket.I apologized at once and quickly ran to the toilet to check on the messages.I didn't expect a barrage of text messages from Gianna.The last time we chatted was when she told me she wasn't coming back for dinner and stood me up.Today, she suddenly sent me

    I picked up my documents off the floor and shoved Gianna aside. I then said coldly, "Please get out of my way, Ms. Richmond. I need to catch a flight. If you really have more to say to me, you can contact my lawyer."Gianna shivered harder and harder. Then she looked like she'd just made a massive decision. When she looked up at me, she said determinedly, "Brandon, if you leave now, I will really divorce you.""Wait, what? Is Brandon Ms. Richmond's husband? But what about Mr. Jagger, then?""Wow. The wealthy people sure are a confusing bunch. I never knew that Brandon knew Ms. Richmond outside of work! They barely say a word to each other at the office!""No wonder Brandon was acting so strangely yesterday! That's why he said he would give up his position as project manager!"The employees were all in shock.Shane looked embarrassed. However, he remained firm and even clapped his hands, saying, "Brandon, actually, I had intended to reveal to everyone that you and Gianna were marr

    I responded in a loud voice, saying, "Mr. Jagger, you are a talented genius, so I suggest that you try and discuss things nicely with Mr. Walters. Maybe they will pity you and give you a chance to prove yourself."Shane's expression changed. He suppressed his anger and forced a smile."Brandon, you know very well that Gianna was only joking when she said that she would make me the project manager in your place. Don't mind her. The company needs you.""Don't waste your breath on people like him anymore, Shane. It's not worth your time," Gianna said, coming out of her office. She was wearing a grim expression.She took my resignation papers, signed off on them, and slammed them back against my chest. Then, she said, "Leave now, Brandon Hemsworth. But once you step out of the company doors, you are never allowed to return!"I smiled politely at her and said, "Thank you very much for your cooperation, Ms. Richmond."Ronan couldn't hold back anymore and asked, "What about the penalty,

    As soon as the words were out of Ronan's mouth, all the employees gasped in shock and turned to look at Gianna.Meanwhile, Shane grabbed Gianna's arm and asked worriedly, "Gianna, how could we have breached the contract? What should we do? We just signed a few other contracts a few days ago. If they withdraw their investment now, then what about our capital chain…"Gianna frowned and held Shane's hand, comforting him. She then pulled herself together, maintaining her calm air as the company CEO, and asked with a sharp gaze, "When did we breach the contract?"Ronan brought out a copy of the contract and pointed at a clause written in it."Ms. Richmond, back when we signed this agreement with you, we made it clear that we would only work with Mr. Brandon Hemsworth on this project. Now, Mr. Hemsworth is withdrawing from the project, and that means you will have to pay the penalty of five million dollars for breach of contract."On top of that, our CEO is very angry about this, and he
