Secretary’s Secret Lover by Zayla Quinn

Chapter 320 His Stupid Questions

Frankie sweated on the forehead and thought, how could Mr. Wolseley not know that?

He took a detour to keep his wife company.

Marvin had a bright smile on his face. “I should stay away from you in the future, or Yvette will give me

a cold shoulder.”

Lance turned to look at Marvin and said coldly, “You’ve been single for too long.”

Marvin was speechless.

Marvin thought, so what?

Then, Lance added, “I know a girl who will be a good match for you!”

Marvin smiled from ear to ear.

“Don’t worry. Many women take a fancy to me, so I don’t need your help.”

“Ms. Hanna Copperfield!”

“Puck!”

Marvin wailed.

“That woman is crazy! Do you want to ruin me?”

Hanna was famous for her craziness in love.

The last man whom Hanna had chased after emigrated abroad under pressure. He did not want to

come back to New York because of Hanna.

Moreover, Hanna had once chased after Marvin when they were little.

Hanna found herself a new target after Marvin went abroad.

Marvin had been home for a long time, but Hanna did not seem to remember him.

Marvin looked aghast at the thought of the nightmarish past.

“If you set me up with Hanna, I will introduce some rich men to Yvette! The young generation of the rich

in New York is outstanding now. They work hard and are young…”

Lance said after a sneer, “Ms. Copperfield.”

Marvin said casually, “Don’t try to scare me with her name. I am fearless…”

“Mr. Wolseley!”

A crisp voice interrupted Marvin.

Marvin instantly held his head.

He mouthed at Lance in horror, “Do you want to kill me now?”

Lance ignored Marvin. He nodded at the girl behind Marvin and said blandly, “Did you say hi to

Marvin?”

“Marvin?!”

Hanna asked in surprise, “Is it you? Marvin?”

“No, I am not.”

Marvin turned his head to go into the elevator with Lance, but Hanna grabbed his arm.

“Marvin!”

Hanna threw herself to Marvin, and Marvin watched the elevator doors close with despair.

Screw him! Marvin thought.

Marvin felt helpless.

Why did I get entangled with this octopus again? Marvin thought.

This was one corner of the hall.

Jamie looked down at the woman in front of him and told himself again and again that this was true and

that this was not a dream.

It might sound absurd, but Jamie was afraid that he was in a dream now.

This scene had appeared in his dream countless times.

It was like an absurd and bizarre dream.

Ellen stood with her arms crossed and her butt against the wall.

She raised her head and asked impatiently, “Mr. McBride, out with it because I have a tight schedule.”

Jamie moved his thin lips, and his voice was slightly hoarse. “How have you been over the past few

years?”

This question shocked Jamie himself.

Shouldn’t I ask why she fooled me? Jamie thought.

However, Jamie realized that the answer to this question wasn’t important to him at all.

At this moment, Jamie just cared about how Ellen had been over the past few years.

“How have I been?”

Ellen did not expect Jamie to ask her this question.

How have I been over the past few years? Ellen thought.

This question pulled her back to those nightmarish days.

Ellen thought, the best days of my past five years were when I was in a coma after falling into the sea.

It was a blessing to know nothing.

After I woke up, the treatment became torture for me. Moreover, there was endless hatred. Because of

this hatred, I didn’t

want to live. I hated everything, including humans.

The silence magnified her sad past.

Ellen felt a surge of hatred because Jamie before her looked like the demon that strangled her neck

every night.

Ellen wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood.

Ellen was fuming with rage.

–“Mr. McBride, are you joking? I was expecting some good questions after such a long silence.

“How have I been? Do you want to tell me that you didn’t realize your love for me till I died?”

“I…”

Ellen sneered before Jamie finished his answer.

“Jamie, I now know why I didn’t die. You disgust me. I didn’t die because you blackened my name.”

Jamie froze on the spot. He had a lot to say but couldn’t open his mouth.

“Do you have nothing to say now?”

Ellen curled her lips. “If so, get out of my way. Remember, this is your last chance to talk to me. There

won’t be next time.”

Ellen turned around to leave but got pulled by a large palm. Ellen was pushed to the wall.

Jamie stared at Ellen with burning passion in his eyes.

Jamie controlled his strength and suppressed his urge to crush Ellen.

Then, Jamie said hoarsely, “What if I say yes?”

Jamie didn’t believe that this question came out of his mouth.

However, the five years of torment had long melted his heart, which had been as cold as steel, into one

beating for Ellen only.

Jamie didn’t want those days of confusion, hopelessness, and despair back.

Now, he wanted to get hold of the woman, a living one, in front of him.

Jamie asked with scarlet eyes, “Ellen, I love you and can’t forget you, so what will you do?”

Jamie stared at Ellen intently.

He saw obvious disgust and hatred on her face.

That was true.

Ellen didn’t bother to hide her dislike for Jamie.

She wanted Jamie to see, know, and understand her hatred toward him.

In her eyes, Jamie was nothing but a piece of trash.

“Jamie, you disgust me.”

This sentence couldn’t hurt Jamie at all.

“Ellen, you can’t anger me,” Jamie said with a faint smile..

He was no longer that hot–tempered Jamie five years ago.

“I can change whatever you dislike.”

Jamie stared at Ellen. “Ellen, come back.” It sounded more like an order than an invitation.

Ellen smiled and thought, he is as arrogant as ever.

To make things worse, he became stupid.

Ellen leaned over, slowly pulled Jamie by the tie, and exhaled on his face.

“Mr. McBride, I am now an interpreter from Asian–Pacific Projects. If I disappear, I believe that my

leader will immediately call the embassy for help.”

Speaking, Ellen wrapped Jamie’s tie around her fingers, inch by inch.

Her tone was enchanting, but her strength was strong enough to strangle Jamie to death.

“Mr. McBride, I advise you not to forget yourself if you don’t want to get involved in an international

lawsuit!”

Jamie felt breathless, but there was no change in his handsome face.

Jamie asked coldly, “Do you think that can intimidate me?”

Asian–Pacific Projects was about a long–term inspection of America from some other country.

All the people in Asian–Pacific Projects would affect the diplomatic relationship between the two

countries. Therefore, it was inappropriate to take Ellen away now.

However, who was Jamie? He was a mad dog.

He had nothing to fear about.

Ellen loosened her grip. She wanted Jamie to die but wasn’t a fool to kill him with her own hands.

She patted Jamie on the chest and smiled. “If the McBride Group is not afraid of scandals, you may

try.”

Ellen had nothing to worry about now.

She was notorious, so she didn’t mind creating some scandals for the McBride Group.

“Do you hate me that much?” Jamie asked.

Instantly, he realized that it was a stupid question.

Therefore, Jamie added, “How will you not hate me?”

Ellen could not help but laugh as if she had heard a good joke.

She laughed so hard that her eyes turned red, and her shoulders shook, Ellen did consider this

question amusing.

“Jamie, didn’t you ruin the Robbins family? How could you ask such a ridiculous question?”

Jamie seemed calm but got emotional inside. “Ellen, back then, my parents died because your father

betrayed them. I think we get even with each other.”

Ellen realized that she cast pearls before swine.

Ellen thought, no. Jamie is a mad dog!

He can’t understand a single word of mine!

Ellen sneered. “Jamie, even if my dad did something wrong, I didn’t!”
