Wife, Let's Remarry

Chapter 10: Chapter 0009: Worse than Trash



"What are you looking at? You're not even working and come to my brother-in-law's office instead. If that's not trying to seduce him, then what is it?"

Phoebe Smith snorted coldly, with a determined look on her face: "Don't think I don't know your little schemes. Since my brother-in-law got married, you want to be his mistress, don't you?"

"It looks more like you're the one who wants to be a mistress,"

Jaylene was so angry that she immediately shouted at Alexander Preston: "Director Preston, you must explain this situation to this inexplicably unreasonable woman. What exactly did I come to you for?"

Before Alexander could respond, Phoebe burst out: "Who's the inexplicably unreasonable woman? It's you who's shameless and despicable!"

"I've loved you for more than a day, yet I think of you multiple times a day..."

Jaylene's mobile phone rang, and she immediately picked it up and pressed the answer key, ignoring Phoebe.

"Jaylene," Joseph Thompson's voice came from the phone.

"What's up?" Jaylene frowned slightly, not expecting Joseph to call her during work hours again.

"It's time to get off work, why haven't you come out? I'm downstairs waiting to have dinner together." Joseph's voice was gentle and moderate.

Jaylene's phone had a slight sound leak, so not only did she hear Joseph's voice, but Phoebe, who was standing in front of her, heard it as well.

"Okay, I'll come down right away!" Jaylene said, immediately hanging up the phone.

"How did you hook up with Joseph?" Phoebe was the first to interrogate, her tone insulting.

"Why should I tell you?" Jaylene coldly stared at Phoebe Smith: "Who are you? What right do you have to interfere in my affairs?"

"I have no right to interfere in your affairs, but please don't bother Joseph," Phoebe shouted angrily, "Joseph and you are not from the same world."

Jaylene immediately realized what was going on from Phoebe's reaction. It seemed that Phoebe also knew Joseph, and it was likely that she secretly adored him.

So, she added fuel to the fire: "It's not me who's clinging to Joseph, it's him relentlessly pursuing me. Didn't you just hear what he said? He's waiting downstairs for me to have dinner together."

"What? Joseph is clinging to you?" Phoebe's eyes widened, completely showing a disbelief expression.

"What's so strange about that?" Jaylene coldly retorted at Phoebe.

Phoebe sized Jaylene up from head to toe, then snorted coldly: "Jaylene, do you think I would believe this? You should go back and look at yourself in a bowl of water as a mirror. Just look at your appearance and figure – Joseph would never be interested in someone like you who's been dumped!"

Phoebe's vulgar outburst showed Jaylene the true nature of the so-called rich young lady. Indeed, not all that glitters is gold.

"Even if I'm a dumped piece of trash, Joseph still clings to me,"

Jaylene mocked Phoebe's frustrated face and said, "Surely, you also wish for Joseph to cling to you, don't you? It's a pity he doesn't look for you. That just proves that you're not even as good as the trashed goods!"

"Slap!"

A crisp slap resonated in the small office as Jaylene's left cheek was immediately met with a fierce slap from Phoebe.

"Jaylene, who the hell do you think you are?"

Phoebe growled angrily, "With your looks and body, even Alexander didn't want you, let alone Brother Joseph. You must have deceived Joseph with despicable means for him to be fooled by you. Just because he called you doesn't mean he's interested in you. Are you telling lies with your eyes wide open or daydreaming? Let me tell you, at best, you could only work at a street-side hair salon as a prostitute, charging those laborers at the construction site thirty to fifty dollars to sleep with you..."

"Slap!"

Another crisp slap, but this time, it was from Jaylene, who fiercely slapped Phoebe's face.

Phoebe, who initially was angry the whole time scolding Jaylene, widened her eyes, covering her burning cheek, unable to believe that Jaylene dared to slap her.

"You bitch, you dare to hit me?" Phoebe's reaction turned furious, and her whole face seemed distorted as she clenched her teeth and lunged at Jaylene.

Although Jaylene was born in an ordinary family, with her father being a high school teacher and her mother a nursery school teacher, her parents always treated her like a treasure, never even raising their voices at her, let alone hitting her.

So, when Phoebe lunged at her with raised hand, Jaylene grabbed her arm, pushed her with force, and threw the high-heeled Phoebe onto Alexander's office desk.

"My name is Jaylene!"

She clenched her hand on Phoebe's face and threatened, "Remember this – if you dare to call me a bitch again, I won't let you off."

After saying this, Jaylene turned and walked towards the door, not even giving a second glance at the wide-eyed Alexander standing in the doorway.

Since she was already fired from the company, there was no reason to stay any longer!

What's there to be afraid of – was it any worse than being betrayed by a three-year relationship? Let alone a job that hadn't even been two years?

A man can be replaced; of course, a job can be replaced too!

Phoebe couldn't believe she had lost to Jaylene so quickly, and hurriedly chased her to the door, shouting at her back: "You bitch, wait and see how I deal with you!"

After finishing her sentence, Phoebe realized that quite a few people were staring at her outside the door. She immediately became aware of the negative image her behavior was projecting, and shouted angrily once more:

"What are you looking at? Don't you want to work in this company anymore?"

Everyone immediately averted their gaze and quickly walked toward the elevator.

It's better to avoid and not provoke a woman like her, who can come into the company and yell with impunity, as she surely has significant influence.

"Phoebe, are you okay?"

Director Preston looked at Phoebe's red cheeks with concern, asking, "Should I call the doctor from the medical room to take a look at you?"

"No need!"

Phoebe dismissed his concern coldly and angrily, saying, "Alexander Preston, don't blame me for not warning you. Since you married my cousin, you should be loyal to her. If you dare contact your ex-lover again, my sister won't spare you!"

After saying this, Phoebe grabbed her bag and walked out of the door angrily in her seven-inch high heels.

Damn it, why did Brother Joseph give Jaylene a call?

When did they meet each other, and how far have things progressed between them now?

It won't do – she must find out what's going on and not allow Jaylene to become an obstacle between her and Brother Joseph.
