Charlotte Thompson did not want to engage in pointless arguments.
She simply raised her eyelids, looked at her indifferently, then took Coco’s hand and briskly left the meeting room.
Charlotte had always advocated against fighting fire with fire, but not this time.
Since Cindy was relying on her superior position, using her Chief Design Director’s role to suppress her.
She wouldn’t blame her for seeking justice from Justin Battleson.
Facing off directly, she had never been afraid.
The worst outcome is both of them losing their positions.
This job wasn’t a necessity for Charlotte, if she left, Coco would still be her personal assistant.
As for Cindy, it was hard to say.
Cindy sneered at Charlotte’s swiftly retreating figure.
She let out a cold laugh, her voice full of mockery, "I thought she was some big shot, yet she’s just running away."
As she spoke, Cindy looked around at the employees feeling proud of what she had done.
Completely unaware of the trouble that was about to begin.
"If you think I’m unfit for Vanguard Jewelry, feel free to fire me."
Charlotte burst into the president’s office without even knocking, directly throwing out those words.
Her domineering attitude stunned Justin’s aide, Michael Richard, causing him to shrink back.
Michael thought to himself: No one has ever dared to talk to Mr. Battleson like that, Miss Thompson is the first.
He stealthily raised his head, only to be immediately deterred by a sharp look from Coco.
It turned out that this quiet and obedient young woman was actually quite fierce.
Justin, who was initially engrossed in paperwork, looked up upon hearing the noise, his eyebrows furrowed.
He has always disliked being disturbed.
However, seeing that it was Charlotte who had come, his irritation eased significantly.
He was even somewhat curious about Charlotte’s visibly angry demeanor.
"What happened, who said you’re unfit for Vanguard Jewelry?" Justin put down his pen, raised his head, and spoke gravely.
Charlotte stated succinctly what had happened recently, leaving him to judge. Get full chapters from NoveI★Fire.net
"It was actually Cindy who started picking on Charlotte first, that day the coffee didn’t even touch her, it splashed onto Charlotte’s hand."
Coco twisted her fingers, voicing her resentment and injustice.
She was unhappy that Charlotte had held back, thus she revealed the coffee incident as well.
Charlotte immediately realized that she shouldn’t have said that, but it was too late to stop it, the words had already reached Justin’s ears.
Justin’s eyebrows tightened, and he suddenly stood up.
Before they could react, Justin was already in front of Charlotte.
"Why didn’t you say? How is your hand?" There was a hint of reprimand in Justin’s words as he uncharacteristically took Charlotte’s hand to check the back of her delicate hand.
The red marks had mostly faded, and the burn wasn’t as prominent.
Seeing that it was not serious, Justin sighed in relief.
But his anger was still rising.
"If Vanguard Jewelry insists on firing Coco, I’ll also leave. I don’t see her as a freeloader and I certainly don’t think I’m incapable of my position."
Charlotte sharply withdrew her hand, her voice stern.
She hadn’t forgotten why she came here.
After finally getting her by his side, how could Justin let her go so easily?
Moreover, from what they had just said, it seemed like it was all Cindy’s fault.
In the workplace, he heard of confrontations and trickery, and he thought it was normal.
Usually, as long as it didn’t affect the company’s operation, he wouldn’t intervene.
But this time was different, she had offended Charlotte.
This wildcat was personally recruited by him, so Cindy was slapping him in the face.
