Chapter 638
Only after a long time did Felicity calm down.
She felt that she should keep a proper distance from Richard, otherwise, it would become more and more dangerous.
When Felicity stepped into the main entrance of One Thought Building, she received a strange look from her colleagues.
Sure enough, good things never go out, and bad things spread far and wide. So yesterday, when Hughes family announced the cancellation of their marriage, almost everyone felt that there was a reason for it, and the reason was not because of Edward, but if Edward did not have any problems, then Felicity would have a huge problem.
There were a few reports that scolded Felicity as the abandoned wife of a Wealthy Class family. There were even some that said that Felicity had received a huge sum of separation fee, but these reports disappeared at the moment they were uploaded to the Internet. Felicity knew that it was definitely Edward who did this.
On the surface, this man was cold and heartless to her, but in reality, all his actions were still defending her.
The information on the network had been zeroed out, but in reality, Felicity could not avoid the pitying and mocking gazes of others.
She lowered her head and walked into the elevator. A few beauties at the reception desk immediately began discussing in a low voice.
"Now she's not the young mistress of Hughes family, let's see how she still has the face to stay in the company." One of the more sarcastic women immediately began to chat.
"Sigh, but Felicity is quite pitiful, we shouldn't say this." The other beauty pitied her.
"Previously, when she was Dempsey's girlfriend, she was also very polite to us. Now that she has been abandoned, I think it might be because she did not deserve this."
"I hope that she will accept this reality as soon as possible. For women of ordinary birth, which one of them can truly become a true phoenix?"
A majority of the colleagues in the company were only curious as to why she would cancel the wedding, and did not really laugh at her.
When Felicity walked into her own office, Xipil immediately walked over to take care of her.
"Felicity, are you alright? Did Edward say something?"
Felicity sighed: "He didn't say anything. Godmother, I hope that my matter will not affect your future!"
Xipil shrugged her shoulders. "From the looks of it, it doesn't seem to have any effect. He is a good boss."
Felicity smiled bitterly: "He is indeed a good boss. Actually, he is also a good man, its just that I don't have the fortune to be with him."
"Felicity, just wait patiently. Maybe one day, he will think it through. The grudges of the previous generation really have nothing to do with you guys." Xipil felt that Felicity was right, she pitied her.
"Hope so!" Felicity didn't have the slightest bit of confidence anymore.
Although she knew that Edward's feelings for her did not change, it made her feel slightly more at ease.
At noon, Felicity received a call from Mary Ann. Mary had invited her to lunch together.
Felicity had a very good impression of this little sister. Since she had invited her, she naturally agreed to it.
When the two of them met, they sat in the restaurant's private room and saw each other's thoughts.
"Sister, I already know about your situation. I truly feel pity for you. You were a match made in heaven. How did you break up just like that?" Mary couldn't help but sigh, as she felt grieving for her.
Felicity smiled, "Mary, thank you for your concern. We broke up because some reason. Forgive me for not being able to tell you right now."
"It's fine, I won't ask too many questions. Everyone has their own secrets, so do I. Moreover, you will definitely be surprised to hear my secrets." Mary was tormented too.
After that night, she didn't meet him again. He had called her before, but she did not dare to respond passionately to him like in the past. When she thought about how her mother was crying, Mary felt that it was as if she had grown up overnight.
Felicity looked at the face that had lost a lot of weight, and suddenly felt that she was truly like a sister who took pity on her.
"Sis, I don't think I told you that Leo William and I are actually still related to each other by blood in the distance." Mary Ann said with a wry smile.
"Ah…" Felicity could not help but open her eyes wide with disbelief written all over her face: "How could this be? You really did not tell me before. "
"Because I felt that this wasn't a big deal, and that wasn't something could prevent us from loving each other. On my birthday, my mom warned me not to find a boyfriend because she was deeply hurt by my dad. She started to feel that men are all bad. That night when Leo came to find me, my mom found out, she scolded me severely, and I cried really hard, I don't even dare to meet with Leo anymore." Mary Ann supported her chin with one hand, while the other hand slowly flipped through the juice in the cup.
After Felicity heard this, she was shocked once again. She never thought that Mary would actually have such a distress.
But she had always thought that Mary was someone who could live freely. When she and Leo fell in love, it would definitely be very sweet. Leo would definitely treat her like a treasure in his hands.
"Mary, then does your mother know that the person you like is Leo?"
"She doesn't know, she only knows that I have a boyfriend." Mary said in distress.
"If your mother knew that the person was Leo William, what reaction would she have?" Felicity couldn't
help but be concerned.
Mary mocked herself: "My mom will definitely oppose this strongly, because Leo is much older than me, moreover, there is a layer of relationship between the two of us, and my mom loves reputation the most. She has put in a lot of pressure because my dad abandoned her, so she works hard to developed her career. If our relationship is revealed in the future. Somebody will say that she sell her daughter for money and reputation."
Felicity really wanted to hug her. She never thought that Mary, who seemed to be free, would actually have such a strict mother behind her back.
"Mary, then are you sure you won't meet with Leo again?"
"I think of him. I really do. However, I'm also afraid of meeting him. I'm afraid that after meeting him, I'll miss him even more." Mary looked like she was going crazy, as she painfully smashed her fist against her own head, as though she could drive away all those thoughts.
Felicity quickly comforted her, "Mary, don't be like this. Love is always like this. The more you want to restrict yourself, the more you want to meet him."
"Sister, are you the same? Do you also really want to see him now?" Mary looked up at her and asked.
