Chapter 491 - Memalukan

Hearing that instantly made Maria let out thunderous laughter that echoed throughout the room. Her head fell on the back of her chair and her hand touched her stomach which was hurting from laughing too much. She already knew that Lisa was such a moron, but she didn't expect her to be that stupid!

Maria wiped the tears that filled the corners of her eyes and said, "Lisa, gosh, of course I didn't buy this company! Are you crazy? Like I said earlier, I'm only here to work and gain experience."

Then, as if something had occurred to her, the wide smile that had previously graced Maria's beautiful face was gone. The woman straightened her back and looked closely at Lisa's face.

"I just came here for work, period. I have no intention of bothering you or looking for trouble. I didn't even know you worked here at first, so when I saw the list of employees, I was shocked and immediately told Aaron to call you."

Lisa raised her eyebrows hearing Maria's explanation which sounded sincere. It turned out that the woman had changed drastically. In the past, she had never listened to her advice and always fought with her, but now, Maria looks calm. However, Lisa is still not sure if the woman is just acting or if she really has changed. 

Her anger that previously filled her chest making it difficult for her to breathe, is now slowly shrinking. Since Maria had no desire to mess with her, she wouldn't need to be wary of her. As long as the woman doesn't overstep her boundaries, Lisa should be fine.

Now that the fierce woman is her boss, it's better for Lisa to be humble and forget their past. She wouldn't let her past and hatred take over her and cause her to regret her actions. Even so, Lisa couldn't do much for herself. Surely, anyone would be on Maria's side, not her.

Come to think of it, Lisa couldn't have left this job just because of one person. She had been unemployed for a long time and was trying her best to land a job. In times like this, finding a job is not easy. How could she resign from the Better Life company just because of Maria?

"Yes, it would be good if you came here just for work, not looking for trouble with me. Listen, I don't want our past to be a hindrance to your or my future work. Now you are my boss, and I am your employee. We're not enemies."

"Our past? What's the problem with? Ah, do you mean the time I punched you because you ruined my relationship with Rangga?" Maria asked calmly, she leaned her back on the back of the chair and took a deep inhale.

Lisa frowned and looked at Maria in disbelief. It had been a long time since she had heard Rangga's name mentioned. It made her wonder if Maria knew that her ex-husband had an affair and slept with her little sister. 

At the same time, Maria laughed again and shook her head. "Why? Are you confused after hearing Rangga's name after a long time? How does it feel to be dumped by Rangga, huh? Does it hurt? Lisa, I never said that it is possible that Rangga likes you. He approached you only because of his sex drive, nothing more!"

"That's why I suggest you to be a smart and well-dressed woman! Because of the way you dress, a lot of men approach you, right? Like Rangga who now prefers to marry another woman, then Surya comes and disturbs your life. And the only source of that problem is the way you dress!"

Of course what Maria had said was all a lie. After hearing the news that Rangga and Lisa were not getting married, the woman immediately found out where Lisa was. There are no words that can describe how happy she felt when she heard the news that the company where Lisa worked was opening a job!

Unexpectedly, Maria did not need to undergo a long process. After an interview a few days ago, even without any previous experience in finance, this woman now occupies the vacant position as Manager in the Finance division!

Maria was actually rich enough, that is to say, very rich, that she didn't need to work in two places at once. She could just relax at home and watch drama series or do what the unemployed usually do without fear of losing a penny. But since her desire to take revenge is so great, Maria is willing to get tired of working in two places at once.

Her only plan is to avenge what Lisa has done in the past. Seize the white man who seems to still love her, ask him to marry her, then invite the woman to her wedding!

Hearing Maria's question made Lisa dumbfounded. At first, she had no intention of snatching the man who already had another woman. She wouldn't dare to think so, at least not until she found out that Rangga had divorced Maria. Shortly after the two divorced, Lisa just started to have more feelings for her male friend.

Lisa used to live at Rangga's house. But it all happened when she was 100 percent sure that the man had nothing to do with his ex-wife. As long as she was in a relationship with Rangga, Lisa never thought that she was a homewrecker, like what Maria said.

But it was different from what Maria had in mind. After she heard the news that her ex-husband had an affair with a woman who Rangga said 'you don't need to worry about', her anger immediately skyrocketed! She will always think that Lisa is such a stupid woman to allow everything to happen to herself.

"Maria, my goodness, I think you misunderstood me again. Rangga and I had never been in a relationship, until I got engaged. It all happened after you and Rangga were divorced! We just started dating after he divorced you. But now Rangga and I don't have any relationship because we have a problem."

Without putting on any facial expression, Maria said, "Lisa, do you realize that you just admitted you like a married man? After your relationship with Rangga didn't work out, now you're trying to seduce Surya, your ex-boss, right!!!!"

"What a shameless person, you are the most embarrassing and disgusting woman I have ever met!" Maria said in a cold tone filled with hatred.
