Chapter 12 Social Ostracization

On the second day of work, Erin was swamped at the office. She was at every designer’s beck and call. Erin and her friends who had been transferred to the design department were currently being ostracized by others in the department.

However, Dana, Milly, and Ella were lucky. All three of them had been assigned an assistant position to head designers, so even though there were people in the department who did not like them, no one dared to actually order them around.

Erin’s case was different. She finally got some time to take a break and walked into the break room to get herself a glass of water. Dana also happened to be walking out of the break room and pulled Erin to the stairwell.

After she shut the door, she asked, “Erin, did your husband come to pick you up after work yesterday?”

Erin froze. She had not told them about her divorce, nor did she want to tell them that for now. After all, there was nothing glorious about having a cheating husband.

“No, my best friend came to get me.

    Chandler’s eyes flashed. “He’s gone out for lunch, so now’s the perfect time for an illicit affair.”“You are so bold!” Erin was still anxious and kept sneaking glances at the door.Seeing her not focused on Chandler made him angry. He grabbed her chin with his hand. “You’re very bold to not be paying attention to me!”Erin softened her tone. “I’m really worried, what if someone comes in? We could both lose our jobs.”Chandler got up, picked her up, and walked straight toward the designated break room. Erin felt a sense of familiarity when they entered the break room. She thought of the morning she had woken up in that very same break room and turned pale.“Don’t tell me this is the president’s break room.”“No shit.”Her cheeks flushed, and she started to panic. She walked backward and anxiously said, “Don't come over.”Chandler walked toward her and said lowly, “You better service me well.”She wanted to leave, but he was still holding those pictures over her. Half an hour later, she

    Erin took advantage of Ian’s shock and pushed him away with all her strength. She clutched the collar of her ruined blouse and ran out of the room. Tracy was standing at the entrance of the bedroom with a set of keys in her hands.Ian got up and felt a pang of regret. Why the fuck did he give Tracy her own set of keys? He brushed past her and rushed after Erin.He roared at Erin’s disappearing form, “If you don’t return my money you can forget about the divorce!” Erin had left, and Ian was annoyed just thinking about Tracy! If it weren't for her today, he would've been able to fuck Erin. Just thinking of the fresh hickeys on Erin’s body angered him to no end. He was going to find out who that bastard was!Ian stomped upstairs. Tracy apologized when she saw him. “Ian, I’m so sorry, did I disturb you two?”She despised Erin. How dare this bitch come back and seduce her man!“Tracy, didn't I say that I wanted to be alone today?”His tone was reprimanding and filled with annoyance, and T

    After Dr. Louise arrived, he took Erin’s temperature and prescribed her some medicine. He also gave her a shot to reduce her fever. Originally the shot was to be administered at her posterior as it was the most effective, but Chandler didn't allow that.In the end, the shot was administered to her hand. This procedure could've been done in a few minutes but in the end, it became a 20-minute affair. While waiting for the device to administer the shot, Alan Louise sat in a corner, watching as Chandler stood. He had a hint of a smile on his face.“If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes I would never believe it. This is your first time bringing a woman home right?”Chandler’s eyes flashed and mumbled, “Who said it’s the first time?”“Oh, who did you bring home then?” Alan asked, disbelief coloring his face.“Why are you talking so much? I called you here to help her.” Chandler’s expression showed that he did not want to continue with this conversation. Seeing his reluctance, Alan also stoppe

    Erin lowered her head slightly and saw that the driver of the car was none other than the handsome man she had met at the Royal Chamber.After seeing her stunned and hesitant expression, Sean said, “Miss, get in the car; you look like you’re in a hurry, and you won't be able to get a taxi here.”His enthusiasm to help made her stop in her tracks.She was still hesitant to get into the car, so Sean had no choice but to get out of it. He retrieved a cardholder from his suit pocket and gave her a business card. “This is my card. If I try to do something to you later, you can call the police.”As he spoke, he guided her to the front of his car to read the license plate number. Sean flashed her a mocking smile. “It’s easy to remember, right? You can give your best friend a call to tell her that you’re with me and that if you don't call her back later, she can call the police on me. That would prevent me from doing anything bad to you.”Erin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at this a

    Erin’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing that she was in trouble with the director again. She could already guess that this was about the image retouchings.In the director’s office, Caleb was sitting in front of his monitor replying to emails. He raised his head to look at Erin and asked in a cool voice, “Do you know why you’re here?”Erin nodded. “Yes.”“What do you know then?”“I know that if I’m ever sick, I need to take a leave in advance and settle my work before that,” she said sincerely.Caleb stopped typing. He leaned back into his chair and said coldly, “I don't think you understand. Your irresponsibility has hindered the progress of the other designers! This has nothing to do with whether you were sick. You must always finish your work because the clients don't care about your personal problems. They only want to see results! Unless you’ve died or you’ve quit working at Frost Corporations, any other explanation is just an excuse! Do you understand?”Erin was pale; she

    As the president of Frost Corporation, getting called a pervert was obviously not a great feeling. But it was different when Erin said it, and he didn't feel anger. Chandler quietly said, “I’m not a pervert to you, right?”Erin looked at him. This man was definitely ridiculously good-looking. She thought about the women gushing over how hot the president was, and an unspeakable image crossed her mind, making it hard for her to continue eating.Chandler had no idea what she was thinking about, and as he watched her struggle to swallow her food, he thought of that time in the break room.His eyes glistened, and his tone was compromising when he spoke. “I won’t force you like that time in the break room ever again.”Just thinking about that time made Erin’s face flush as red as a tomato. The risotto in her mouth suddenly tasted bad, and she ran to the breakroom. Chandler could hear her retching in the toilet from where he sat on the cuch. His expression soured. He threw his cutlery on

    “Yeah, men are all shit. Most women will meet at least one scumbag in their lifetimes.” Holly grabbed a nearby pillow and settled down more comfortably on the couch.Erin raised her eyes to look at Holly. “Aren’t you and Eugene divorced? Why was he here?”Holly, who had been staring at the ceiling, turned to look at her. “He told me that it’s his grandfather’s 80th birthday next month, and he needs me to put on an act with him so his grandfather doesn't find out that we’re divorced. His grandfather is an old-fashioned man and definitely won’t allow our divorce.” she said hopelessly.“But your divorce has nothing to do with his grandfather!” Erin was surprised.Holly smiled bitterly. “It’s not just his grandfather; we haven't even told our own parents about it.”Erin’s heart sank. Her divorce was also the same—she hadn’t told anyone besides Holly about it yet, not even her parents.But her situation was worse than Holly’s. At least Holly had managed to get a proper divorce and was

    Erin was taken aback; she’d never thought that he would care about her. Her tone softened as she replied, “It’s getting better. I’m almost fully recovered.”He nodded, satisfied with her answer.He patted the seat next to him. “Come here.”“No thanks. If you have something you want to say, just say it.” Erin was starting to panic and even took two steps backward.Chandler chuckled. “You seem scared of me.”She sneered. “Right, it’s not like you look like a monster; why would I be afraid of you?” Though she claimed that she wasn't afraid, she still didn't get any closer to him.Chandler didn’t force her, either. He placed his coffee mug down and gave a sticky note that was on the table a light knock. “Find all the books that are on this list.”He’d asked her to come up to look for books?Chandler continued reading the news, so Erin slowly moved toward him and picked up the sticky note. She was surprised to see that a few of the books on the list were design books that she’d wa

    Erin chuckled lightly as she said, "Enny would have married and fallen in love with another man sooner or later. "If that man is Paulo, I would be more than willing. Enny will be very happy in her life, and I'm at ease entrusting her to Paulo. And with Paulo being so wealthy, I don't have to worry about anyone coveting Enny's status or her family's power.""You make a good point!" Jill agreed."Jill, if your wedding with Ryder happens around the same time as Enny's, I'm afraid I won't have the energy to help you," Erin said worriedly."No worries, I don't want a wedding ceremony. Ryder and I just need to register our marriage. We've been living together for ten years anyway," Jill said.Erin nodded. "Yeah, that's fine. Weddings are quite tiring anyway, whether you have one or not."After chatting for a while, Jill heard Ryder's footsteps and said quickly, "Let's talk next time. He's coming in." …At 10:00 pm that day, Erin visited Chandler's office at his company.However, h

    Ryder turned around with skepticism etched across his face. "What could possibly be wrong? Look at how anxious you are."As she leaned against the doorway, Jill held her phone aloft. There was a challenging glint in her eyes. "If you can remain that calm after hearing this news, I'll play your game with you later.""Really?" Ryder raised an eyebrow, his tone filled with."Forget it if you don't trust me." She pretended to turn away.In a swift motion, Ryder closed the distance between them."I believe you. Now, tell me," Ryder said."Enny and Paulo have settled things," Jill announced with a smirk playing on her lips."Damn! Who told you?" Ryder's curiosity peaked.Jill waved her phone triumphantly. "This is exclusive insider information! Erin personally sent a WhatsApp message, see for yourself!"Ryder snatched the phone, his eyes scanning the message rapidly.The message read, "Enny was two months pregnant with Paulo's child, and the couple had visited Paulo's parents.

    Cyril looked at Paulo's departing figure and sighed. "Master is so good-looking. That's why Ms. Frost has been chasing him for so many years… Actually, Master and Ms. Frost really are a perfect match!"Only after Paulo's figure disappeared into the forest did Cyril turn around silently.He was suddenly startled. "Ms. Frost…""Why so guilty? I'm not some demoness who preys on monks!" Enny exclaimed.Cyril laughed. "Ms. Frost, you're really humorous…""I'm asking you, where is your master?" Enny demanded.Cyril hesitated and said, "I don't know where Master is."Enny called his bluff. "Liar!""I really don't know," insisted Cyril."Cyril, your master is going through the most difficult time of his life. As his capable assistant and disciple, you must help him!" insisted Enny.Enny's serious expression made Cyril ask curiously, "What trouble has Master encountered?""Well, he wants to be with me, but he's too embarrassed to ask. What should I do?" she asked."Does Master reall

    Many years later, on the day Enny got her ID card, she drove to Skycloud Mountain overnight.There was a temple on the top of Skycloud Mountain, and she was going to see someone there.By the time she struggled to the mountaintop, it was already 6:00 am the next day.Enny was dressed in black. She wore white hiking shoes with a duck tongue hat and her hair casually tied in a ponytail.Her beautiful, bare face had been a stumbling block on her path to growth.Every year, the number of men she rejected could fill several trucks.That was just among those who had the chance to approach her, while those who didn't could only watch from afar.Enny looked straight ahead, wiping the sweat that had trickled down her cheek.She took a deep breath and walked into the small, secluded temple that was cut off from the world.She finally arrived just in time on the day the new chief abbot took office. In fact, she was there to prevent the new abbot from entering the monastic life!Driven b

    Erin had planned to visit Matthew's "Thinkerin City" to buy a violin and visit him.But Matthew's shop was closed, so after waiting for half an hour with Enny, she went to another store to buy one.However, she happened to meet him on the street now.Matthew slowly pushed the wheelchair toward her.He was dressed very casually. He wore a plaid shirt with short sleeves, jeans, and branded sneakers.His simple style was a far cry from his rock star days.He looked somewhat thinner, his smile faint. "Erin, did you and Enny come to buy an instrument?""Yes, we bought Enny a violin. We actually wanted to visit your store." Erin's gaze drifted to Claire, who sat in the wheelchair.Matthew responded, "Sorry, I had to take Claire to get some medicine."Although Claire had been tragically affected by Matthew's obsessive fans years ago, she survived. However, she was left mentally incapacitated and was sometimes lucid for only a few hours.Matthew was loyal, taking it upon himself to c

    Chandler's appearance wasn't anything mysterious or an extraordinary entrance.It was filled with the usual beauty and romance of a typical wedding.After reaching Erin, he knelt on one knee with a face full of happiness, opened the ring box with both hands and looked up at her.He asked, "Erin, will you marry me again?"Erin's heart was filled with joy as she asked jokingly, "If I refuse, will you force me into a wedding dress and marry you?"He replied firmly, "Yes!""Since I have no choice, I suppose I must agree," she said with a smile. Erin extended her hand for Chandler to slide the engagement ring onto her finger."You will be Mrs. Frost for the rest of your life! Don't even think about escaping!" Chandler exclaimed."Ah, I won't run. I am willing to be a happy prisoner," Erin said self-deprecatingly.Ryder rolled his eyes, his expression full of sourness.Kylan caught his expression and patted his shoulder without saying a word.As Erin put on the ring, everyone pres

    Five minutes later, the doorbell rang again as Enny started doing Erin's makeup."I'll get it, Mom. You stay seated, okay?" Enny said."Fine, Mommy won't move." Erin winked at her. Seconds later, Enny shouted, "Godfather!""Enny! You look so beautiful!" The joy in the man's voice was palpable.Erin stood up and walked to the living room, knowing Sean had arrived.By then, Sean and another man had already entered.They closed the door behind them."Erin, I've brought a makeup artist for you," Sean said with a slight smile.The man beside him bowed politely to her. "Hello, Ms. Lane!""Maya, your male disguise is a total failure. You just slapped on some rough makeup without even wearing a realistic mask. You don't look like a man at all," Erin teased with a laugh.Maya couldn't help but laugh. "Mr. Frost's security measures are too strict. If I had worn a stranger's male mask, I wouldn't have been allowed in, and I would have been detained.""Why go through all the trouble o

    Meanwhile, Erin had just gone to open the door of her hotel room.To her surprise, the person at the door was Roman."Rom! It's really you!" Erin exclaimed with joy. Dressed in a tailored white suit, Roman held a bouquet and joked, "Do you need to check my face to make sure I'm not wearing a mask?""Haha! I know it's you! Come in and let's talk. Thank you for the flowers!" Erin took the bouquet he offered and invited him inside.A minute later, Roman was sitting on the couch.He looked out to the underwater world from the floor-to-ceiling windows and remarked, "Enny and Eddie must really love this room.""Yes, the kids could watch it all night. Chandler specifically chose this type of room for the children," Erin explained.As Erin placed the fresh flowers in a vase, Roman inquired, "Where's Chandler?"Erin replied, "You should know what he's busy with, right?"Roman's gaze turned indecipherable, his tone probing as he asked, "You already know?"Erin laughed.

    Jill naturally denied it when she heard the question. "We didn't expose anything! Erin just happened to see us. What could we do? Pretend we don't know her? That's not realistic at all!""Did you really say nothing?" Ryder asked doubtfully.Calix was also skeptical as he questioned, "Erin is so sharp, and both of your acting skills are so poor. She must have figured it out."Tina exclaimed defensively, "We really didn't say anything! You two are so annoying! I'm dying of thirst here! Jill, hurry up and open the door. We can talk inside.""Yeah, I'm thirsty too," Jill echoed. She took out her room card, swiped it, and opened the door.The two women were about to close the door when Ryder stopped it with his hand. He asked, "What are you doing, not letting us in?""What are you coming in for? Don't you have your own room? Go away, we're going to take a nap!" Jill said grumpily."Taking a nap at this hour?
