Chapter 309 She Is Mrs Bennett
Isabel remained silent the entire time, patiently waiting to hear what the assistant would say next. She was
curious to see how the assistant would try to justify herself.
The assistant glanced at Isabel, then carefully offered her analysis. "In my opinion, she probably did it on
purpose to get your attention."
"Oh? To get my attention?"
"Yes, exactly. She probably wanted you to notice her talent. When she was alone here earlier, she must have
memorized the content on the laptop, then deleted it, and now she's purposely showing it off in front of you."
The assistant felt quite satisfied, believing herself clever for devising such an explanation. Even if Richie didn't
fully believe her, she figured at least sdoubt would be planted in his mind.
As the assistant felt pleased with herself, Richie's voice suddenly cut through her thoughts.
"Do you know who she is?"
The assistant was caught off guard.
Richie's reaction was completely different from what she had expected.
"W-what do you mean?"
Could it be that, as she had just guessed, Isabel and Richie had already been secretly involved, and there was no
need for Isabel to deliberately show off her talents?
If that's the case, then she

"She's Mrs. Bennett of the Bennett Group," Richie said calmly.
The assistant's mouth dropped open in shock. She never, in a million years, would have guessed that answer!
Her mind blanked out for several seconds as she struggled to process the revelation. Slowly, she composed
herself and, with a stiff neck, turned to look at Isabel. Isabel was casually reclining on the couch, a smile playing
at the corners of her mouth.
With a "thud," the assistant's legs gave out, and she fell to the ground in shock.
The wife of the Bennett Group's CEO. Why would she chere and deliberately try to seduce the boss? Is she
really that bored?
Richie's dark, cold eyes glinted with a chilling intensity as he stared at the assistant, his expression unreadable.
"I'm deeply disappointed in you."
He wasn't fooled. He could easily guess why the assistant had acted the way she did.
It was clear that, out of jealousy, she had mistaken Isabel for his lover and deleted the files from his computer.
"Mr. Pearce, I'm sorry! Please giveanother chance!" The assistant cried, pleading desperately.
"Go to the finance department, settle your paycheck, and leave," Richie said coldly, without any mercy.
The assistant's face drained of color, as if struck by a bolt of lightning.
Such a good job was hard to cby. She didn't want to leave!
But when she saw Richie's
unyielding, stern expression, sheet
knew better than anyone what of person he was after working with him for so many years.
If she wanted to stay, there was only one way.
With that thought, she walked up to Isabel, and aplogized respectfully, "Ms. Zimmerman, I'm sorry!
"Please, have mercy on me! Could you say a few words in my favor to Mr. Pearce?"
