La Serpiente, Foxy cursed bride in CEO Ghost’s lair - Chapter 139

Adriana leaped forward shoving aside the other petite lady who had earlier strode forward towards Syna and stretched her hand out to land a hard slap on Syna’s right cheek.

Syna’s body acted reflexively and she bent towards left in a failed attempt to avoid her slap, when a loud bang on the door forced the ladies to freeze in their positions, every single lady present in the cabin turned their necks to see a glaring silhouette.

“What the hell is happening here?”

A feminine voice resonated throughout the cabin, which had suddenly felt deadly silent as soon as the door had opened with the bag.

The aggressive feminine voice belonged to one and only woman, who would dare to raise her voice to that extent with utter authority and it was none other than jade Lombardi.

“Why are you ladies causing a ruckus here? Do you even realise, you people are risking your jobs?”

Jade Lombardi unleashed her anger on those hyper women, she was glaring at them, talking eye to eye, as Jade shifted her orbs from woman towards other.

Jade Lombardi, the shareholder of the fifty percent of company’s assets and major projects. The major share was supposed to split into two equal halves between Sinclair MacLaverty and his dear cousin Jade Lombardi. Both the partners were rulers but in their own specific departments yet it was only Sinclair who was watching over the conglomerate and managing the affairs.

Jade Lombardi used to arrive every now and then, but didn’t interfere in the projects or the monetary policies and issues, the lady had permitted Sinclair to use her shares wherever he wanted and how he wished to invest her money. She had trusted him as both of them grew up together after Sinclair had acknowledged his blood origin and got reunited with his relatives, which only included an old uncle with his only daughter who was none other than Jade.

“N – no, ma’am! It is not what you are thinking.”

One woman out of that swarm poked her nose in, while she stepped out to justify the thing or at least to come up with something reasonable to satisfy Jade with her words.

“Then what is it, huh? Are you trying to form a lie to cover up the mess you people are creating here?”

Jade stepped inside the cabin with a defined and powerful gait, the lady had an authoritative tone as she questioned the woman who had earlier dared to open her mouth to speak to her.

“Not at all, ma’am.”

This time Adriana stepped forward and walked past the other ladies, including that petite acquaintance and halted in front of Jade.

No matter how much high and mighty she was thinking of herself, the lady was still obliged to address Jade Lombardi with respect and honour, not because she had a partnership with Sinclair MacLaverty, as that was the thing, no one knew except both the parties involved in the partnership.

Adriana knew the fact that she could not afford to anger anyone in the company who was above her position, and definitely Jade was not the person she could offend out of all people in the company. Although, everyone assumed that Jade Lombardi used to come only with the intention of meeting her dear cousin rather some business stuff or to keep an eye on everyone.

“What, no ma’am!? Do you fool women even realise where are you standing right now?”

As soon as Adriana halted in front of Jade, the authoritative lady folded her arms and tucked them beneath her perky breasts.

Jade seemed unmoved and undefeated woman, Syna didn’t know why Jade had appeared out of the blue, and on the top of it she was helping Syna by scolding the female staff.

“If you do, then you must have a reasonable explanation for stepping here with your fuming asses, with the ill intention of slandering the secretary of your boss?”

Jade burst out on Adriana eit3h a demanded tone, the lady had an effect on other people by the decent and noble aura she had around her.

Adriana felt that her plan had already backfired with the arrival of Jade Lombardi, because if she was here to support and protect Syna then it was totally a wrong move, in fact a stupidity to proceed further with her plan of teaching Syna a lesson and fixing her in place.

“Actually, ma’am, if you would let me speak something then I…”

The petite lady didn’t take the hint that why Adriana, who was acting high and mighty and was hyperactive a little while earlier, suddenly turned mute.

She dared to poke her nose along with her legs and whatever she had, in between the matter eventually worsening the situation which was already critical.

“Then what? Would you dare to spout those nonsense again in front of her? Slander me, assassinating my character, huh? What? Why have you all suddenly become deaf and mute?”

Syna jumped into the conversation with an angry tone, she would have handled the bunch of women all by herself but now sensing that how much those ladies were restraining themselves from spouting nonsense, Syna decided to use the opportunity to make them realise with whom they were messing.

The situation seemed as if the tables hand turned already and now the badass lady was Syna, with her rescuer Jade Lombardi supporting her back, while a satisfactory smile was decorating her face after she witnessed that Syna could fight everyone all by herself, and had the strong chances of winning.

Now put your hands up

Up in the club (club)

Just broke up (up)

I’m doing my own little thing

You decided to dip (dip)

But now you wanna trip (trip)

‘Cause another brother noticed me
