Cecelia Archer was busy in her office when Ryan suddenly walked in, looking troubled.
"Miss Archer, could you take a break for a moment? Someone is outside and wants to see you."
"Do they have an appointment? If not, have them make one. I’m very busy right now."
Cecelia Archer didn’t even lift her head, engrossed in her work. Ryan paused.
"I’m afraid that might be difficult. It’s Miss Morgan."
Gwen Morgan?
She had been busy for a week, but it felt as long as half a lifetime. To Cecelia, the name sounded so distant.
People don’t show up for no reason. Gwen Morgan had made a special trip to the company to see her, so she must have something to say. Wouldn’t it be unreasonable for her to put on airs and refuse?
"Let her in."
Gwen Morgan was as beautiful and exquisite as ever. Cecelia Archer stood up to greet her.
"Miss Morgan. Long time no see."
Gwen Morgan strolled casually around the office.
"Already handling things for Damien, are we? You’re quite capable. It must feel great to be the president of Vaughn Group, right?"
Although the two hadn’t openly argued, there was an inexplicable feeling that all pretense was gone. Cecelia had no intention of beating around the bush with her.
"It’s alright. Surely you didn’t come all this way just to ask me that, Miss Morgan?"
"Of course not. I’m not that bored. Miss Archer, you’re a smart woman. I’ve known that from the very beginning. To be honest, I actually wanted to be friends with you. A pity you think so highly of yourself and refused to associate with me."
’I never thought I acted superior around her. But I guess if you want to condemn someone, you’ll never be short of a pretext.’
"Miss Morgan, please have a seat. If you have something to say, please get straight to the point."
She sat down behind her desk, and Gwen Morgan sat opposite her.
"What has Damien been busy with lately?"
"Surely you haven’t deleted his contact information, Miss Morgan? If you’re so eager to know what he’s doing, why don’t you just give him a call?"
Gwen Morgan let out a soft chuckle. "Oh, you... Forget it. Let’s get straight to the point."
"Cecelia, do you think Damien Vaughn really loves you? You have a child together, you’re legally married, and now you’re even handling business for the Vaughn Group. You’re solidly the Young Mrs. Vaughn. Are you feeling fulfilled?"
Cecelia didn’t answer her question.
"Miss Morgan, you still haven’t gotten to the point."
"True. But I still want to ask this question. Please answer me honestly, won’t you?"
"In a sense, yes. We have a child together and a legally binding marriage certificate."
"Do you think you know Damien Vaughn?"
Cecelia answered honestly, "No one can understand another person one hundred percent. After all, you can’t read someone’s mind. But understanding a part of them is enough, isn’t it?"
"That depends on which part. If you don’t even know the true face he deliberately hides, you’ll be very disappointed the day you find out."
Cecelia shrugged.
She didn’t think she could be very disappointed in Damien Vaughn.
Although she didn’t understand him completely, she felt she knew him pretty well.
"Alright, enough with the preamble. I have work to do, Miss Morgan. You can get to your point now."
"Okay."
