Chapter 325 Love Watching Dogs Bite Each Other
Reborn Before The Divorce
Zaneâs sudden shout startled everyone in the room.
âZane!â Pippa immediately rushed forward with a coquettish expression, wanting to reach out and pull him, but Zane avoided her.
âWhy are you here?â He frowned, looking very unhappy.
âI came to see you, but I didnât expect to run into Willette and Nydia arguing, so I couldnât help but say a few words,â Pippa explained.
Nydia ignored them and looked at Willette. âSis, letâs go outside and talk.â
Willette was thinking about Nydiaâs words just now. Was it really Pippa who instigated it? Otherwise, how could she appear so coincidentally right after Willette arrived, especially since she had never been to the company before?
âZane, bring your fiancee and come to my office,â Willette said, feeling the need to clarify things.
âFiancee?â Zaneâs attention was completely focused on the word.
âShe claims to be your fiancee!â Maddie pointed at Pippa.
Zaneâs face instantly turned pale.
âPippa, what nonsense are you talking about? When did you become my fiancee?â He glanced at Nydia unconsciously, but Nydia just curled her lips in a mocking arc.
Pippa was stunned. She didnât expect Zane to deny her in front of so many people.
âZane, weâ¦â she tried to explain.
âPlease call me Mr. Porter. Weâre not that familiar,â Zane interrupted her coldly.
Everyone present looked like they were enjoying the show. They didnât like Pippaâs arrogant attitude earlier, but they didnât say anything because she was Zaneâs fiancee. Now that Zane had denied it directly, their eyes all turned mocking.
Pippaâs face turned pale. She bit her lip and said, âHow could you do this to me!â She stomped her foot and was about to leave, but Willette stopped her.
âMiss Wagner, there are some things I need to clarify with you. Please come with me to my office.â
âGet out of my way, you dog!â Pippa couldnât do anything to Zane, but she could vent her anger on Willette.
âThis is my company. Who are you to act wild here?â Willette said coldly. âI have reason to suspect that you instigated Jasper to ruin my wedding.â
âAre you crazy? I donât even know Jasper!â
âJust because you say you donât know him, doesnât mean you donât know him,â Willette retorted. She was filled with anger and needed a way to release it.
Zane didnât want them to keep arguing, so he spoke up and suggested that everyone go to the office to talk things out. They arrived at Willetteâs office, where Pippa had a sour face. But when facing Zane, her eyes turned resentful again. âSis, I never had any contact with Jasper, so I really donât know how he found out about your pregnancy,â Nydia spoke first. âCould it be someone he knows at the hospital?â This reminded Willette that she hadnât thought of this when she went to the hospital for a checkup.
âWhere thereâs smoke, thereâs fire, Willette. Do you have a thing with Jasper?â Pippa didnât want to let Willette off the hook.
Willette sneered, âWhether or not I have a thing with Jasper is none of your business. But do you have any shame pretending to be engaged to Advisor Zane? Just now, Zane said he wasnât familiar with you!â
Pippa was instantly furious. âWillette, wait. I wonât let you off the hook! Is this shabby office even worth my time?â She opened the door and left, stomping away in her high heels. Indeed, the Wagner family looked down on Willette. But the Wagner family knew that if they kept going like this, their family wouldnât make it. They had to form an alliance with the Porter family, and Zane was the person that Pippa had to catch.
âIâm sorry that my personal relationship has affected my colleagues in the company,â Zane apologized.
âZane, this has nothing to do with you,â Willette couldnât vent her anger on Zane, âThereâs nothing left to discuss. You can go back to your work.â
Zane walked out.
Nydia was concerned about Willette. âSis, did Barclay bully you?â
Willetteâs face stiffened for a moment, then she shook her head. âNo, I just feel bad for him. A perfectly good wedding was ruined like this.â
âAs long as he believes in you, there shouldnât be any problem. Rumors stop at the wise. Just donât see Jasper again in the future.â
âOkay.â Willette grabbed Nydiaâs hand. âNydia, you have to testify for me and prove that I have nothing to do with Jasper.â
âSis, donât worry! I will never testify for you.â
âNydia, I misunderstood you earlier. Itâs just that so much has happened recently that I donât trust anyone anymore. Donât blame me.â
âI understand. Donât worry about it.â
After calming Willette down, Nydia left her office. She didnât expect to gain anything unexpected. Was Pippa going to have a conflict with Willette? But just now, Zaneâs attitude towards Pippa was very bad, completely not giving her any face. Whatâs going on? She thought about it for a while but quickly lost interest. Looking at the heavy rain outside the window, it seemed that the rain was not going to stop, and the next few days would be bad.
At the end of the workday, her phone rang.
âMommy, have you finished work? Weâre here to pick you up,â said the children.
Nydia was surprised, âYouâre here to pick me up? At the building downstairs?â
âYes, Mommy, come down quickly, itâs raining heavily,â said the children.
Nydia quickly packed her things and asked, âHow are you getting back, Maddie?â
âI⦠I donât know if I should call a taxi,â Maddie replied.
âCome with me, Iâll take you back,â Maddie said.
âOkay, thank you!â Maddie didnât hesitate to accept.
They went to the underground car park, and after Nydia drove her car out, she parked it on the side and saw Jesseâs car.
It was raining heavily, and even with an umbrella, their pants were wet.
âMommy, come up quickly,â Vergil got off the car to hold the umbrella for Nydia, to prevent her from getting wet when she was closing it.
âVergil, you drive my car back home.â Nydia handed him the car key. âOkay, Missus.â
The heater in the car made them feel comfortable once they got in.
Molly had brought a clean towel to wipe the water stains off their clothes.
âSis, you should wipe yourself too.â Molly handed the towel to Maddie.
âThank you, youâre so cute!â Maddie wanted to pinch her cheeks.
âFirst, let me drop off my colleague at home. Itâs not convenient for her to take a taxi in such heavy rain,â Nydia said to Jesse, who didnât object.
âHow come you came to pick me up?â Nydia pinched Mollyâs face.
Maddie wanted to pinch her, but she didnât dare.
âWe were afraid it was dangerous in such heavy rain, so Brother asked Daddy to come with us to pick you up,â Molly replied.
âThank you.â
On the way, Molly was mostly the one talking, and they dropped off Maddie at her place.
The car was driving slowly because the visibility was low, and there was already some standing water in some places. Fortunately, the driver was like a live map and tried to avoid the areas with water. The car they were in had a higher chassis, so there was no problem.
âMommy, letâs stay at home tomorrow,â Tavish looked worriedly at the heavy rain outside.
âOkay.â
âWill Daddy stay at home tomorrow too?â Tavish asked.
Jesse pursed his lips and didnât answer.
Nydia was unhappy and said directly, âYour son asked you a question!â
âYou donât want me to stay at home, do you?â Jesse added.
