Unexpected Second Chance at Love [2]

CHAPTER 343: Guest of honor

*Knock! Knock! Knock!

A continuous loud pounding echoes throughout a secluded part inside Beauty. However, due to the fashion show that is still taking place, the hallway remains empty with no one in sight, not even the employees are seen walking around.

"Someone! Help me!"

A woman’s faint voice sounds from behind the tightly shut door of a storage closet.

Inside the dark room, Ming Yue screams at the top of her lungs with tears running down her cheeks. However, no matter how much she knocks or shout, the door remains shut with no one coming to help her.

Her legs turn weak and she falls to her knees in sobs.

"How did it turn out like this...."

After she left the reserved area for De L’amour, she had gone to find Chen Limei. On her way, she noticed Lian Ni Shang was following behind her, so she pretended to head in the direction of the ladies room.

Coincidently, Lian Ni Shang also came the same direction. Left with no choice, she waited inside the bathroom stall until the cold woman left.

After confirming that Lian Ni Shang was no long in the restroom, she carefully snuck out.

However, the moment she opened the stall door, everything around became a blur and her vision went dark.

When she opened her eyes again, darkness greeted her. At first, she didn’t know where she was, but constantly touching the things around, she realized she was inside a storage closet.

Coming back from her daze, Ming Yue wipes her tears away and pounds on the door again.

"Hello?! Is anyone out there? Please open the door for me! Hello?!"

When she thought all hope was lost, the shut door suddenly opens and the light from the hallway shines inside.

"Miss Ming, why are you hiding in here?"

Standing on the other side of the door, Chen Limei’s assistant stares down at the pitiful looking secretary. However, seeing the woman’s disoriented appearance, she frowns with pursing lips.

"If you want to satisfy your own selfish needs, you should do it on your own time. Do not waste my boss’s time."

"...."

Ming Yue stares up at the woman and she was dumbfounded with confusion. Satisfy her own selfishness needs? She had been stuck in this tiny storage closet the entire time! How was she able to go find some man to mingle with?

"Ah!"

Lost in her thoughts, Ming Yue yelps as the assistant suddenly grabs her arm and pulls her up.

Before she could process her thoughts together, the assistant had already dragged her to meet Chen Limei in a quiet corner.

"CEO Chen, I’ve brought her."

Ming Yue is ruthlessly shoved towards the CEO. The impact was so strong that she stumbles and falls to her knees and hands.

Her fists clench tightly and her lower lip trembles. Never has she received such humiliation in her entire life!

"Get up."

Chen Limei ordered as she stood in front of the woman kneeling to her like a slave. Her eyes glare murderously at Ming Yue as if wanting to stab the woman to death.

"Why did De L’amour chance their designs? Did you already know this was going to happen and purposely give me false information?"

Ming Yue was helping herself stand up, but when she heard Chen Limei’s words, she was rendered speechless.
