The Sweetest Trophy Wife by Beanie

Chapter 121 Does Judy Think I’m Dead? 

When Liam noticed Gwyneth’s glare, he felt even more innocent. 

Liam thought to himself. 

“What on earth is going on? I thought we were getting along well today. In some ways, I played the role of a hero saving a damsel in distress. We got so close that I was a little distracted when I looked at the documents. After all, no man could keep their composure when their significant other sat next to them.” 

The sensation on his shirt brought Liam back to reality. 

Judy was concentrating on cleaning the tea stains on his shirt. 

Judy suddenly grabbed his arm as he wrinkled his brows and prepared to say something. He looked over his shoulder and saw Gwyneth grasping Judy’s arm. 

Gwyneth’s expression showed that she was clearly annoyed. She clenched her teeth as she glared at Judy. She asked her in a soft but chilly voice, “What are you doing?” 

Judy replied as if it were the most natural thing to say, “Liam’s clothes have hot tea stains.” 

Suddenly, Judy experienced severe arm pain. 

She lost her balance but fortunately reacted in time and propped her hands on the desk to regain her balance. 

Judy was just about to yell out in annoyance, but her sister slammed the file heavily onto the table. The noise stunned Judy and made her 

shiver. 

“Did you check the data thoroughly before submitting it?” 

Gwyneth made an effort to speak calmly, but it was obviously futile. 

What was she doing just now? Does she believe I’m dead?‘ 

At first, Judy thought that Gwyneth’s rage was motivated by jealousy. However, she did not expect it to be work–related. She looked at the file and was unsure of how to respond. 

Gwyneth looked at Judy, and her sister looked somewhat dazed. Gwyneth sneered and pointed at the budget amount in the report. She then continued to glare at Judy and showed no signs of backing down. 

She roared, “Here! You’d better give me a more accurate number. Otherwise, I’ll find it hard to believe that you didn’t manipulate the figures. 

When Judy heard this, her heart thumped ferociously, and she grabbed the documents from Gwyneth. Indeed, she had not double- checked the amounts, and the money was supposed to be a circulating fund. 

Judy found it difficult to control her desire in light of Glen’s current situation. Clenching her teeth, she took the report and was ready to leave. Before she left, she looked at Liam and seemed hesitant to walk away. 

After the office door closed, Gwyneth let out a deep breath. Although she had not earned a reputation for being a strict boss at work, she had to admit that she had been emotional just now. Her fury at Judy was mixed up with other issues. 

There was a soft whisper next to Gwyneth’s ears, saying, “Don’t move.” 

Gwyneth cocked her head, observing Liam pull out a tissue and using it to gently wipe her sleeve. 

Gwyneth’s height roughly reached Liam’s shoulder. From her point of view, she saw him slightly lowering his head, and there was a gentle expression in his eyes. She found his attractive look easy on the eyes. She had no objections to Liam doing that simply because her initial annoyance had significantly subsided. 

Liam said. “Thank goodness, the tea wasn’t too hot. This fabric is so thin that you would have scalded your wrist.” 

Gwyneth could not help but grin at his remarks. 

‘Is he nagging me? He’s even worried that I might’ve gotten hurt. Did he forget that he spilled hall a cup of tea on himself?” 

Gwyneth detected Liam’s scent. Oddly enough, it did not bother her, but she found it familiar and soothing. 

They did not hear the gentle knock on the door because of this. 

When Wanda pushed the door open, she did not give it much thought, but she was surprised by the scene unfolding before her. She saw Gwyneth and Liam standing very close to one another, each of them wearing complex expressions. 

A gasp escaped from Wanda due to how shocked she was. 

It brought Gwyneth back to her senses. She moved backward and pushed Liam away. After that, she cocked her head and glanced at Wanda. Her cheeks were a little red. It was hard to tell whether she was blushing or angry. 

Gwyneth said, “You should leave now. Don’t you have work to do at the office?” 

Liam was a little perplexed. He scowled and tossed the tissue into the trash bin. He could not recall telling Gwyneth about his meeting 

today. 

Gwyneth did not give Liam much time to hesitate. She forcefully drove him out of the office. 

When the two headed in her direction, Wanda nodded politely and grinned at Liam. She said nothing throughout. In actuality, Wanda was still biased, even though she worked for Gwyneth. Wanda would choose Hayden over anyone else if Gwyneth had to choose a partner right. 

now.
