When Love Turns to Ashes Chapter 06

When Love Turns to Ashes Chapter 06

Enough, stop acting crazy!

Landon covered my mouth and dragged me outside the office, his large hand covering my nose and mouth with such force that it felt like he was trying to suffocate me alive.

Then, I heard Isabelle laugh at her colleagues in the office and generously say, “Since the things

have been found, I haven’t really lost anything. After all, we are all colleagues, so I won’t pursue it!

will treat everyone to afternoon tea this afternoon as a thank you!”

Landon seemed afraid that I would publicly expose our relationship, so he took me to the pantry.

“Tell me, what exactly do you want to do? There has to be a limit even when going crazy,” he said

while pinching his forehead, seeming extremely troubled by the matter.

I gasped heavily, with bruises on my face that he had squeezed out.

When did you become like this? Luckily Belle is generous and forgave you. Go apologize to Belle

right now!

“I don’t apologize, I didn’t do it, why should I admit it!”

I coldly looked at him, Landon asked why I had become like this, and I still wanted to ask him when

exactly he had become so unfamiliar.

Isabelle entered the pantry and took a paper cup to pour me a cup of hot water.

“Serena, take a sip of water slowly. I know you have grievances against me, but next time you can’t

be so impulsive.”

I didn’t take that glass of water, but Isabelle got scalded by the boiling water in the cup and spilled it

on my arm.

“Ah! It’s so hot…” Isabelle got her fingers scalded by a few drops of hot water. Landon quickly took

her to the faucet to rinse.

And I was dressed lightly, a chiffon shirt had already been soaked through by boiling water, my

arms were scalded by the hot water, feeling like they were on fire, emitting bursts of white steam.

I went to the bathroom alone to treat the burn. Blisters quickly formed on the left wrist of my hand.

As I gritted my teeth and went back to my desk to pack up, Landon came out and grabbed my hand.

“Ssshhhh…” I cried out in pain, Landon paused, releasing me.

He asked somewhat awkwardly, “Are you okay?”

I was a bit amused, today the slap mark on my face was thanks to him, and the burn on my wrist was deliberately done by Isabelle.

Landon’s hypocritical appearance now makes me sick.

I let

go of his hand and swept all the scattered things into the trash can.

He seemed to want to say something, but in the end he turned and walked away, leaving only one sentence, “You were too impulsive today.”

After cleaning up the mess on the ground, I turned and headed to the company’s surveillance room. Today, there was no way I could let them slander me like that out of thin air.

However, in the control room, I and the staff were at a stalemate.

I requested to view the surveillance footage in the office this morning, but the staff stopped me, saying only company employees have the privilege to access the footage.

I watched as my employee’s internal account was blacklisted and deleted, realizing that it was

Landon’s doing.

Only he could arrange it so quickly in the company, to have my employee account deleted.

He was firmly on Isabelle’s side, already convinced that I was the one who stole the necklace.

But soon, I thought that this technology company was also an industry owned by the Sterling

family, so I wanted to quickly go home and meet the heir of the Sterling family, Julian Sterling.

I thought he could help me prove my innocence.

Returned to the apartment where I had lived for six years.

I moved all my belongings away, and at the same time, I cleared this relationship out of my life as neatly as cleaning up garbage.

The next day, I booked a flight back to Kingston, handed over all unfinished work, and briefed the person who took over my position that day.

On the third day, I walked into the airport alone, carrying my suitcase. Before boarding, I sent a breakup message to Landon’s clearly separated alt account for the first time.
