The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 984

Chapter 984

Elise couldn’t believe it. She had only been working as Shaun’s secretary for a few days, and now. she was fired.

This was the only way she could get close to him; Shaun firing her meant no more chances to see him. If she wanted to meet him again, she would probably have to make an appointment.

Elise’s face went pale. “Mr. Lane, please give me one more chance! I swear I’ll change, I really will…”

Shaun had no patience for her. “I only give one chance. You haven’t taken your job seriously and have been too focused on me. I don’t keep people like you around. Just leave.”

Before coming to the villa, Elise had imagined a bright future. Now, she was thrown into darkness.

“But-”

“Not leaving on your own? Then I’ll have someone make you leave! Security!”

Two black-suited bodyguards entered quickly. “Yes, Mr. Lane?”

“Throw her out.”

“We’re on it.” The two bodyguards grabbed Elise on each side. “Move it!”

Elise burst into tears. Her dream of marrying into wealth was shattered. “No, please!”

They dragged her away.

Halsey was happy. Seeing Shaun get rid of Elise so decisively right in front of her made her feel great.

“So, you just fired Elise just like that? You really don’t know how to treat women kindly.”

Shaun smiled slightly and pinched Halsey’s chin. “Don’t act innocent when you’re clearly getting the better end of this.”

“What do you mean? I’m not!”

“You’re not? Then I’ll call Elise back right now.”

Halsey’s eyes widened. “You wouldn’t dare!”

Shaun chuckled, his tone low and soft. “Are you jealous?”

“Jealous? Me?”

“Ever since I hired Elise as secretary, I noticed something was off with you. Isn’t that jealousy?”

Halsey suddenly realized something. “Did you hire her to make me jealous?”

Shaun raised an eyebrow, realizing she was catching on.
