Chapter 290
The huge room was as cool as water at night. It was so cold that
one could catch a cold!
As soon as Evelyn got home, she heard that her mother had been dismissed from her job and that her
father was also demoted from
a supervisor to a regular employee!
“How can this be?” Evelyn said in surprise. Both of her parents worked in the public sector, and in this
sector, as long as one did not make any mistakes, they would not get demoted at all, let
alone fired.
Besides, she was still Brian’s girlfriend! Even if the head of the sector wanted to fire and demote her
parents, they should also Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
consider that!
“Didn’t you tell your superiors that I’m now Brian’s girlfriend?” Evelyn said.
“We did. Of course, we did.” At the mention of this, Melinda Riley became very angry. She had told her
boss that her daughter was the entertainment industry’s prince’s girlfriend and that in the future, she
would marry into a rich and powerful family.
However, Melinda Riley’s Boss ignore
matter who your daughter’s boyfriend is, you have to leave today. There’s no room for discussion!”
It really pissed her off.
Who would have thought there would be more! She never stopped showing off to her colleagues that
her daughter was involved with the entertainment industry’s prince. When they saw her packing up her
things after getting laid off, the colleagues who had once cozied up to her were now making fun of her
downfall.
One of her colleagues, whom she often pressured, even ran up to her and said, “Oh, Cuie, isn’t your
daughter Brian’s girlfriend? Even if you lose your job, your daughter can fully support you! I just don’t
know how long these days will last. I heard that Brian changes his girlfriends very quickly. If becoming
his girlfriend means that one can marry into a rich family, just think of how many wives Brian must
have!”
Then, several of her colleagues made self-righteous second opinions, giving suggestions as if they
were in her best interests.
“Yes. Ask your daughter to get as much as she can now, Cuie. She may not get the chance after a few
months.”
“Is it that easy to marry into such a rich and powerful family? Your daughter is not a socialite. The more
rich and powerful the family, the more likely the wife has to be of equal social status.”
Of course, she knew that these people were not making friendly suggestions. They were mocking her!
She had shown off too much. How could these colleagues not step on her face now?
“When Brian marries you, I must go back to shove it in their faces and show them that I can be Brian’s
mother-in-law! I’ll like to see what they’ll say then!” Melinda Riley said furiously.
Evelyn felt a pang of guilt. If it had been before, she would have agreed with her mother, but now…
She was by no means certain
of it.
These days, Brian only talked to her about her sister. It was as if he was not interested to listen to
anything else.
She had been racking her brains to think of all sorts of things to
say about her sister.
Even now, she did not understand what Brian saw in her sister! She was just a street sweeper, right?
What was there to know?
However, Tony Cummins said, “What’s wrong with our family? I
don’t think we’ve offended anyone. How can all our jobs go wrong
at the same time?”
Evelyn suddenly shuddered, turning white in the face. She said,
“It can’t be because of Sis. Dad burned the photo album that
day… Could it be that she complained to Jason, so Jason took matters in his hands and attacked our
family?”
The more they thought about it, the more likely it was. Otherwise, normal people would have cared that
she was Brian’s girlfriend and not dared to harm her family.
