The Former Assistant to the President

Even though Anthony had ordered to block this information from the start, the scandal seemed to have wings and quickly spread throughout the company.

As Natalie walked around every company department, she always heard her co-workers gossip one after another.

"Oh, did you know that the president has an illegitimate child!"

"He said the child's mother was Nadia. Did you know that Nadia was Anthony's assistant president four years ago..."

"Looks like the boy is living separately from his father. He must have a lot of money."

"I always thought our president was very cold. But he seems to like playing with his assistants. I don't know if he now likes to play with his new assistants?"

All kinds of conversations pierced Natalie's ears, and her fists tightened slightly.

Yes, these scandals have nothing to do with her, but it looks like her name will be dragged down eventually.

It turned out that Anthony's hobby was very special. He loves to play with his assistant!

Natalie always thought that she was the only one in Anthony's heart, she felt their relationship was special.

It seemed like it was nothing, she was just following in someone else's footsteps.

She was in a terrible mood. What's more, she was still his assistant.

A complicated thing like this still needed to be dealt with.

She wanted to forget about this matter. But calls from various media came one after another, and her phone in the office immediately exploded.

"Miss Natalie, regarding President Anthony's illegitimate son, can you reveal who the child's biological mother is? Ah, sorry, I am a reporter from MV radio."

"Miss Natalie, I am the child's biological mother. My life is very difficult right now. Can you send some money to my account?"

"Miss Natalie, we'd like to interview president Anthony. What's his plan about this illegitimate child, and what impact will it have on corporate decision-making?"

Natalie hung up heavily, but the calls kept coming! She reached out her hand and held her forehead, her breath panting.

Nadia was Anthony's assistant four years ago!

She still clearly remembered what Anthony had said to her.

You and I... Do you want to spend your life together with me?

As long as I'm still breathing, if I disappoint you, I won't die well!

At that moment, she looked into his bright eyes. She really believed what he said. She is totally addicted to his love.

Her mind was confused. While resting her forehead on the table, she felt panicked.

If she is no longer young in the future, will Anthony replace her with another young and fresh assistant?

Thinking of the boy, she suddenly stretched out her hand and pressed her stomach. No, she couldn't rashly expose her pregnancy.

After she thought about it seriously, she still knew nothing about Anthony's past.

"Miss Natalie, these are the documents required for the president's meeting this afternoon!" An executive came in with a document in his hand.

Natalie grabbed the document, grabbed her bag and hurried outside.

She was distraught.

She took a taxi and went straight to Nia. When she arrived, she didn't speak at all. She just washed her face and sat on the sofa.

Nia takes out a steaming bowl of chicken soup.

"Just in time, I happen to have some chicken soup for you. Ah, why do you look skinny? Didn't that bastard feed you?"

Natalie suddenly had acid in her eyes. She reached out her hand and hugged Nia. Her tears flow like broken pearls.

The feelings that she had been holding back in the morning came out all at once at this moment. Nia gently patted her back. "What is it? Natalie, what happened? Please tell me! If Anthony dares to bully you, I will hit him!"

Natalie sat up, took a tissue to wipe her tears, and suddenly smiled again. But her smile was very pale and helpless.

"Nothing, I just feel very disappointed… Nia, I suddenly feel that love is cruel. Why am I not allowed to love someone properly? Why am I always destined to be betrayed?"

Natalie was silent and told Nia what happened today.

In front of Anthony today, she did not attack or even show any waves.

She didn't want to reveal her true thoughts to Anthony.

"Bastard, he has an illegitimate child? After all, the mother was his previous assistant? What a jerk! How could he do this to you? I don't think you need to tell him you're pregnant. You'd better get out of your job right away." Nia is furious.

"No, Nia..."

After crying for a while in front of Nia, Natalie's mood was much better.

Sometimes people don't need help, but having a friend to talk to and vent out their emotions is enough.

"I've thought about it seriously. I won't resign as easily as last time. After all, this time, I'm the assistant to the president. Since I've decided to take this position, I have to take responsibility. I have to learn to distinguish between work and personal matters. I know many people are staring at me behind my back, waiting to see me become a joke. I won't let them succeed!"

"Then, do you think Anthony is worth fighting for? It looks like now is the time to consider your baby's future. You have to understand Anthony's intentions, and you also have to see if he cares about your feelings or not. If so, get married and take care of the baby. Your child together. You must explain that this is also for the sake of your child, who is developing in your stomach. Besides, You guys can handle the matter of that illegitimate child another time. After all, that is all in the past."

"Hm, Nia, how much money did you receive from him? Why do you look like you want to help Anthony?"

Natalie pretended to be angry.

Her best friend had just said that she would beat up Anthony. But now, she speaks well for him.

"No, I swear... I'm just telling the truth..."

"Nia, I have to go. I have a meeting to prepare!"

"Natalie, are you really okay?"

Natalie smiled. "I'm much better now!"

"Come on, have your chicken soup before you go. Don't waste my cooking!"

After finishing the chicken soup, Natalie returned to the company.

In front of the lobby door, Joana stood with Yuna and the others.

Hearing that Natalie had run away from the company during office hours, Joana felt satisfied.

There will be a crucial meeting this afternoon. If Natalie doesn't come back, something big will happen.

It would be best if that cocky girl never came back.

But at this moment, Joana saw Natalie's figure rushing in from outside.

Joana's face turned a little ugly.

"Miss Natalie, I don't think you've ever experienced a crisis like this in your life! If it's not handled properly, it will not only make our president famous but also put the entire company into crisis.

Therefore, it's best to let this be handled by someone who's capable to handle this matter. If you're willing to bow to me and admit your mistake, I might generously help you think of countermeasures!"

Natalie knew very clearly that Joana was waiting for the moment where she was slipping.
