She suddenly stopped, and there was a complicated expression on her face. She started talking but stopped,
looking a little afraid. All her emotions were shown on her face, and she was conflicted.
The other secretaries were evidently curious about her expression.
“What’s wrong with you? Why aren’t you saying anything?”
There was still a stack of files in her hands. She raised her right hand and tucked her hair behind her ears before
saying slightly awkwardly, “I think I just… saw something that I shouldn’t have…”
Her actions had already piqued everyone’s curiosity, but what she said made them more inquisitive. Someone
couldn’t help but ask, “What happened?”
The male secretary in the office laughed. “Something you shouldn’t have seen is our topic of idle conversation.”
“Tell us, quick. What on earth happened? We all work together and have such great relationships with each other.

After all, the person who had to keep the secret had it the hardest.
While those who wanted to listen to gossip had no burdens.
When all was said and done, they didn’t spread it.
Everyone else started convincing her.
The female secretary really wanted to talk about it. As everyone persuaded her, she couldn’t help but spill the
beans.
“I just… passed by Mr. Wickam’s door and saw Ms. Benett with a pale face. Her clothes were slightly wrinkled as
well. The door had been open, and I saw that Mr. Wickam’s necktie had been torn off. His face was dark, and his
gaze was terrifying…”
Everyone couldn’t help but visualize the scene as soon as she said it. The astonishment in their eyes grew.
“D*mn… Don’t tell me that Ms. Benett still has feelings for Mr. Wickam. It couldn’t be that she’s getting close to Mr.
Wickam so she can force herself onto…”
The lips of a male secretary at the side twitched. “You’re overthinking it. It’s evident that Elisa doesn’t want to get
too close to Mr. Wickam now.”
“I used to think so too, but how do you explain what happened?”
“What if Mr. Wickam forced Ms. Benett?”
A female secretary shook her head at once. “It’s impossible! How could Mr. Wickam take the initiative? He’s so cold
and dignified…”
Before she could finish, someone interrupted her in exasperation. “Stop!”
She was dumbstruck.
What she was saying was obviously the truth!

Wickam took the initiative. Can’t you guess after what happened downstairs today?”
“No. I think there’s no way that Mr. Wickam could do such a thing. He defended Ms. Benett because of Old Madam
Wickam. Ms. Benett must not have given up! She must have wanted to force herself onto him. Wasn’t his necktie
torn off? Mr. Wickam must have been furious and chased her away.”
The female secretary described vividly, and she was slightly agitated. She wasn’t going to let others speak badly
about Gareth.
Some agreed with her, but others couldn’t help but retort.
“This came from someone in our office. Don’t let this get out at all. Mr. Wickam dislikes blabbermouths. Otherwise,
be careful of the consequences.”
No one said anything because they knew it was the best thing to do.
But… After that, everyone couldn’t help but talk about it again.
One of the involved parties had already returned to her office.
Seeing that her clothes were slightly wrinkled, she changed into another outfit she had ready.
