It was a good thing to have a powerful husband. Blair didn't even brag about it. The helpless look in her eyes was evident. This made her coworkers even more envious.

Rebecca clutched her own phone tightly. In fact, she had Blair's so-called husband's number. When she found out she was fired, she blew up his phone. But he rejected all her calls

As she was wondering what to do next, everyone in the office began to whisper to each other. Their sarcastic comments added fuel to the fire.

Rebecca was seething in anger. Indeed, everybody hits a guy when he's down.

“Rebecca never stops. She gets fired, and now she's harping on Blair because of it. I agree with Blair. If she's such a badass, why not talk to Blair's husband herself?" a colleague said.

“Talk to Blair's husband? Not after the way Rebecca treated her," another colleague mocked

"You'll never guess what I heard. Blair's hubby is a big shot, maybe a higher-up. Now I believe it. He didn't even have to show his face, but got her fired just Like that! Blair's so spoiled!"

“It probably goes something like this: Blair's husband called Rebecca and helped his wife ask for vacation time, but Rebecca showed off her usual sparkling personality. She pissed him off, and now he taught her a lesson. He made the company fire Rebecca and replaced her with his wife. Rebecca's angry, but what can she do?"

“I think you're right. It makes sense. I think Blair's husband would listen to Blair if she begged him. But Blair didn't do anything to save her."

Everyone nodded their heads, thinking that they had the whole story

But now there was another problem. Blair's employee profile showed she was single when she started here, and no one had heard one word about a marriage. So when did she get married? Who was her husband?

Maybe Orion? The old-timers there all knew their CEO had the hots for

Blair. He always gave her flowers and took care of her. But then he all of a sudden stopped cold turkey. So had he already won her over? Or had he just given up?

Hearing everyone gossiping, Rebecca felt so humiliated she decided to do anything to save her career.

“Call him back. I'll talk to him," she urged.

After a moment's hesitation, Blair called Wesley again.

Before the call was connected, Rebecca suddenly yanked her phone away.

Blair pulled a long face at her.

The call went through. Rebecca put Blair's phone to her ear, and immediately heard an attractive voice.

“Honey.”

The gentle and magnetic voice melted Rebecca's heart. He sounded so different from the guy who called on his wife's behalf asking for more time off. 'He sounds so hot!' she thought.

Blair noticed the change on her face. She leaned forward and reminded her, "So? Did he answer? Now's your chance."

Rebecca came back to her senses and cleared her throat. She turned around and walked off to a private alcove.

Blair's lips twitched. ‘Hey, that's my phone.*

Rebecca suddenly stopped in her tracks. Blair heard her say, “I have something to say to you."
