A Vow of Deception, A Vow of Revenge novel Chapter 13

In the end, Tyson didn't kiss Celia on the lips—he simply bent down and pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead.

Winona understood. Tyson had had a bit too much to drink, but he still remembered who he was. There was no way he'd make out with Celia in front of so many people.

Yet that kiss on Celia's forehead was more than enough—a silent declaration to everyone present that she was his.

How laughable his earlier words now seemed. "Let's not mix our personal lives with work." What a joke.

Her junior assistant messaged again: "Looks like Miss Goodwin really is Mr. Goodwin's girlfriend. No wonder he handed her the project we've spent so long on, just like that. I can't believe Mr. Goodwin is just as unprofessional as everyone else—this is so unfair."

Winona quickly replied, "Don't say things like that again, especially not at work or to anyone else."

Tyson and Celia were not the kind of people you wanted to cross.

If her assistant ever did, it could spell disaster.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. But, Secretary Thorne… everyone knows how much you sacrificed for that project. Are you really just going to let it go that easily?"

Winona responded calmly, "It's fine."

So they wanted her project?

In the end, it would only backfire on them.

Before she went, she shot Winona a bold, triumphant look, her crimson lips curling into a taunting smile.

The rest of the project team, who had worked alongside Winona, glanced at her in secret, but no one dared to speak up.

Celia's ties to Mr. Goodwin were well-known, and he had personally announced that Celia would take over the project.
