My Roommate Pretended to be Rich, Only to be Exposed! Chapter 1

I went to my internship with an LV bag.

My colleagues talked about me behind my back.

"She is Mr. Lawson's mistress. I saw her get out of his car."

The next day, my college roommate, who was doing the internship together with me, blocked me in the stairwell.

"I wondered why you were so arrogant, and it turns out you are a mistress."

"I will be Mr. Lawson's son's wife. You'd better stay away from Mr. Lawson. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

I was confused.

I didn't know my dad had a son and that his son had a wife.

————

"Do you know the new intern? She is Mr. Lawson's mistress."

"I saw her get out of his car."

"How could a college student be so shameless? She would like to be someone's mistress at such a young age instead of working hard "

"There are so many temptations. Being a mistress is a shortcut to making money quickly. Did you see her bag? It is the latest style and worth tens of thousands of dollars."

I sat on the toilet, quietly listening to people outside talking about me.

After only one day of internship, I became famous.

It was just because I had an LV bag and went to work in a Maybach.

I stood up and straightened my clothes. Then, I pushed the door open to go out.

The few people, who were talking enthusiastically just now, looked at each other when they saw me. They were so embarrassed that they didn't know what to do.

I walked over and washed my hands. After taking out a tissue to wipe the water on my hands, I turned around and smiled at them.

"My bag is fake, and it only cost 580 dollars."

"Do you want to buy it? I recommend it to you."

They waved their hands and refused me.

I returned to my workstation with satisfaction and started to squeeze my stress-relieving tool.

At that moment, Alisha Cook, the department director, sent me a message.

"Sort out the customer data for the past year and give it to me before work tomorrow."

I glanced at Alisha. She was sitting in the office chatting with Linda Stewart, my college roommate. I understood everything immediately.

Alisha wanted to settle personal grudges with an excuse of work.

I wanted to gain some work experience during the summer vacation, so I had an internship.

However, I didn't expect to meet Lind on my first day in the company.

Lind was my college roommate, and we didn't get along well.

She couldn't stand my arrogance, and I looked down on her histrionics and materialism.

She had always enjoyed mocking and suppressing me, and I have always treated her as a fool.

This company was a well-known listed enterprise in Aleyon with a history and a huge scale. With Linda's ability and academic qualifications, it was impossible for her to enter such a company.

When I saw her being intimate with Alisha, I understood everything.

It turned out that Linda had a relative here.

Lind walked past my workstation proudly, holding a cup of freshly brewed coffee.

"You attract attention wherever you go. As soon as you entered the company, you have received so much work to do."

"I am different. Alisha only asked me to walk around to get familiar with everyone."

From the pile of documents, I looked up and rolled my eyes at Linda.

"Even if you don't speak, no one will think you're dumb. If you want to attract attention, I can just give you my job."

Linda's face immediately turned gloomy.

"Kailey, no matter how proud you are at school, you have to be humble once you leave school."

I snatched the coffee cup from Linda and drank the coffee in one gulp. Then, I glanced at her gorgeous dress.

"It's better than being tasteless."

Linda stomped so angrily that she almost broke her legs.

The next day, as soon as I entered the company, I noticed that everyone was strangely looking at me.

I didn't expect office gossip to spread so quickly.

During the lunch break, I thought that there were too many people at the canteen and wanted to go downstairs later, so I went to the stairs to get some fresh air first.

As soon as I reached the stairs, I was pushed by someone and blocked into the stairwell.

After seeing who it was, I started cursing.

"Linda, what's wrong with you? If you have nothing to do, go to the hospital and check your head."

Unexpectedly, Linda kept a straight face and stared at me with contempt.

"I wondered why you were so arrogant, and it turns out you are a mistress."

I frowned.

"Linda, I would rather be your mom instead of someone's mistress. You'd better keep your mouth shut."

Linda poked me so hard that her long nails made me hurt.

"I will be Mr. Lawson's son's wife. You'd better stay away from Mr. Lawson. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

I was confused.

I didn't know my dad had a son and that his son had a wife.
