Chapter 3
When this was said, a group of interns were afraid. One by one they didn’t scold me, but pulled Madeleine’s sleeve and chirped. “Madeleine, we’re all doing this for you. You can’t just ignore us.” “This company’s internship is something I’ve been working on for a long time and I can’t be fired.” “Say something quickly, Madeleine.” Madeleine nodded. “Don’t worry. This company is not in the hands of Theresa Mazzarello. Mr. Leopold, none of these people are allowed to be fired. I’m carrying the Mazzarello Family’s child, so I have the final say in this company.” “Mr. Leopold, I order you to kick Theresa out. As long as you do it, I’ll double your salary!” Mr. Leopold awkwardly glanced at me and hurriedly agreed to expel this crowd of interns. He also repeatedly guaranteed that he would absolutely control the recruitment properly in the future and definitely not let this kind of thing happen again. Only then did the interns realize that they were really going to be fired. They all complained and cried. Madeleine, on the other hand, was almost pissed off. “I was going to give you a chance to stay in the company and give you a bite to eat, but now you’re the one who gave your face away. I’ll call your brother to come and teach you a lesson!” I was too lazy to bother with Madeleine and turned around to leave this smelly office. But just as I walked out not too far, I heard Madeleine’s miserable scream. “Ah, my belly. My hubby, please save me and the baby!” I didn’t stop myself from turning around to see who this person posing as my brother was. But I was stunned when I saw it. Because the person who came was none other than my brother, Nicholas Mazzarello. *** Nicholas was currently hugging Madeleine at this moment. He shouted as if Madeleine was already dying, “Madeleine, don’t scare me. What’s wrong with you? Please, say something to me!” I only felt speechless. I didn’t realize that what Madeleine said was true, that she was really my “sister-in-law”. The thought of being a family member with such a person in the future was worse than eating a fly. Despite this thought, I still walked over to her. “Nicholas, who is she?” Nicholas didn’t speak at all. Madeleine changed her angry appearance just now and looked at me with tears in the corners of her gentle weaker eyes and said, “Ms. Theresa, what do you mean by this?” “I told you a long time ago that I’m Nicholas’s girlfriend and pregnant with his child. But you said that you don’t need a sister-in-law like me. Not only did you want to fire me, but you also knocked over my lunch!” “And I’ve already promised you that even if the baby is born, it won’t affect your status nor share your property. I’ll work hard to raise the child myself.” “Are you so intolerant of me and my child? After all, isn’t my child also your nephew? Originally born from the same root, why are they so anxious to be with each other?” The interns around me who were packing up to leave thought they had hope that they wouldn’t be fired. And one by one, they all spoke up in favour of Madeleine, turning black and white upside down. I took several deep breaths before I opened my mouth. “Nicholas, I don’t even know about you and Madeleine. I thought it was her talking nonsense. And I didn’t do anything to her just now. If you don’t believe me, you can…” Before I could say “Check the surveillance,” Nicholas shouted, “Shut up! I don’t want to listen to your explanation. I’m too disappointed in you. My family is right that you are really vicious. I’m going to take Madeleine to the hospital now. You’d better pray that she’s okay.” “By the time I get back, I want you to have packed your things and left.” Looking at Nicholas and Madeleine’s back as they left, I was almost pissed off. I wanted to immediately call him out and talk to him. But looking at the surrounding employees who were watching the scene, I held back from getting angry and just told Mr. Leopold to fire these interns.
