Married a Secret Billionaire by Breaking Wave

“Ms. Chapman, I overheard a rough summary of the situation at the entrance just now,” Gia said innocently,

flashing a harmless smile.

However, a dark shadow cast over Lina’s eyes.

Mollie gave Gia a strange look, pushing her glasses and shooting her a sharp glance that seemed to say, “What’s

going on? Are you siding with an outsider?”

Gia pretended not to understand and continued to plead for the two interns. “They just wanted to find Mr. Sam’s

design sketches to study and learn from. This thirst for knowledge is something we should all admire! Ms. Chapman,

you shouldn’t scold them indiscriminately and deduct their bonuses!”

Her words dumbfounded Mollie.

It was the first time she encountered someone taking the side of an outsider!

After a moment of thought, Mollie realized that Gia was new and needed to win people’s favor. These two struggling

students became her primary targets.

Although Mollie didn’t particularly like them, she reluctantly held back for the sake of her niece. “Alright, alright, go

back to your own work!”

As Mollie walked away, Gia looked at Lina and asked softly, “Lina, can we talk privately?”

…

Lina and Gia walked side by side in the alley behind the company building.

Out of caution, Lina kept her distance from Gia. As they walked, Gia stopped and quietly gazed at Lina.

“If you have something to say, just say it. You heard it just now, Ms. Chapman doesn’t like personal conversations

during work hours,” Lina said.

“Lina, I…” Gia bit her lip and pleaded with her eyes.

Then, she turned to face Lina and suddenly bowed 90 degrees, clearly saying, “I’m sorry!”

Lina sneered, feeling somewhat helpless.

The phrase “I’m sorry” sounded ironic to her.

“Lina, I’m really sorry!” Gia appeared sincere, her acting skills on point. She stepped forward, tears welling up in

her eyes, and held Lina’s hand. “Not only for my aunt but also for the things I did to you in the past.”

“You know what you did to me in the past too?” Lina abruptly flung her hand off. “Don’t touch me. I don’t want to

have anything to do with you!”

“Lina—”

“I treated you as my best friend in the past!” Lina angrily exclaimed. “But I never expected you were scheming and

using me all this time, even wanting to harm me!”

“I didn’t want to harm you!”

“Violet’s face is the best evidence!” Lina gritted her teeth. “Gia, stop lying so blatantly. Your actions only disgust

me!”

“Lina!”

As Lina turned around, Gia suddenly grabbed her wrist.

Lina stiffened.

Behind her, Gia cried out and almost knelt before her.

“Lina, you’re the Thompson heiress now, capable of influencing others… My aunt unknowingly offended you, but

one word from you, and she won’t be able to stay in the Thompson Group anymore!

“You have so much, but all I have is this internship opportunity, Lina! Have pity on me and let me stay here! Once I

obtain the internship certification, I’ll study abroad. I promise… I’ll never appear in front of you again!”

Disgusted, Lina forcefully shook off her hand without even turning her head.

“Lina!” Gia cried out. “I’m begging you! Please, have mercy on me for the sake of our past friendship!

“I know I was wrong, and those actions weren’t my true intentions! Melvin… He used my family to threaten me. If I

didn’t do what he asked, he’d harm my family!”

“Is that so?” Lina turned around, her gaze coldly piercing Gia’s eyes. “He told you to do something, and you just did

it. If he told you to die, would you die too?”

“You—”

“Gia, you’ve used this act of pretending to be weak and pitiful to deceive me!” Lina said sternly. “Do you think I’m

still the brainless Lina from before?”

Gia’s heart pounded.

It was true. Lina had changed after becoming Pamela Thompson. Her mere presence instilled fear in people.

Gia couldn’t help but take two steps back, her mind going blank.

After a while, she spoke softly. “Lina, it’s not me you should be wary of! Don’t forget, Renee is Melvin’s daughter.

She has Melvin’s blood running in her veins! She’s inherited his ruthlessness and wickedness—”

“Shut up!” Lina’s expression turned fierce. “You’ve harmed me enough, and now you want to slander my cousin?”

Gia lowered her head slightly, her eyes darting around, afraid to meet Lina’s gaze.

Lina said coldly, “Gia, I won’t believe a single word you say anymore! Let’s pretend we’ve never met today. I won’t

stop you from interning at the Thompson Group, but if you dare to cause trouble, I have numerous ways to make

you disappear from Centrolis!”

Gia turned pale and hastily retreated.

Lina had truly changed. As a member of the Thompson family, her dominant genes were fully activated, making

people think twice before acting recklessly in her presence.

“Lina, don’t worry… All I seek is peace and… an internship certification. Then I’ll go abroad…”

“Hah!” Lina sneered. “Go abroad? Where will you get the money to go abroad? Was it the dirty money Melvin gave

you when he ordered you to harm me?”

“No, it’s my boyfriend’s money.”

Gia’s voice was soft as a luxury car stopped on the road behind them. A handsome young man stepped out of the

car and waved at them.

Gia responded enthusiastically.

However, when Lina saw the person clearly, she couldn’t help but be shocked!

“Why… is it him?”

She looked at Gia.

Although Gia maintained a humble and respectful posture, a trace of imperceptible triumph flickered in her eyes.

“Yes, it’s Jacob.” Gia chuckled lightly, emphasizing each word. “Lina, Jacob and I truly love each other!”
