Chapter 1257: A gossip he would surely enjoy.

[Pierson Corporation]
"But is it true?" one employee asked her colleague as they walked across the lobby.
"Well, who knows?" the other employee shrugged. "It’s not like we can really tell what’s going on up there. As long as we have a job that pays us like this company, who cares if the CEO is getting replaced?"
The other nodded in agreement. "You’re right," she said, pursing her lips as she trod carefully. "But I think... the new COO is a little hot, don’t you think?"
"Shh!"
"What?"
"Didn’t you know?"
"Know what?" the other asked in confusion, furrowing her brows. She leaned in and gasped as her colleague whispered the latest gossip in the office. "Really? He and his secretary...?"
The colleague nodded and put her finger in front of her lips. "People have been noticing and hearing them talk to each other. But don’t tell anyone you heard it from me."
"Are you sure?"
"Shhh!" the colleague panicked, looking around cautiously. She slapped her office mate mildly once she was sure no one had heard them. "I told you to be quiet, but yes. That’s what the witnesses say after hearing them talk about their feelings for each other."
