Ruby Gregory had been waiting for a long time, but there were no words of reprimand from Steve Burton on the other end of the phone.
She frowned slightly in confusion, and then heard a cold voice from the other end of the phone: “I know.”
Then, before Ruby could respond, Steve hung up the phone directly.
Ruby listened to the busy tone on the phone, blinking in disbelief. Steve Burton didn’t lose his temper at her?
Ruby blinked again incredulously, realizing this wasn’t a dream. She hung up the phone slowly and quickly opened the document for the report on her computer, clicking print.
Olivia Foster hadn’t expected that Ruby would actually call Mr. Burton to admit her mistake. She glanced sideways at the secretary’s room and found that she didn’t show any displeasure because of what she said. She clenched her teeth and stared at her computer, typing harder on the keyboard.
Ruby stepped out of the office, and before entering the printing room, she heard a voice behind her: “Ruby.”
Ruby stopped, turned around, and saw Maya Mitchell walking over with a document in her hand.
Maya stood in front of Ruby and handed the document directly to her: “In the morning, there are usually many people in the printing room. If you go now, you’ll have to queue, and if Mr. Burton gets anxious later, you’ll get scolded.”
Ruby looked at the document in Maya’s hand with confusion, finding it was the report she had printed yesterday. She frowned slightly: “How did it end up with you?”
“I picked it up from the trash can.” Maya paused for a moment, glanced behind to make sure no one had come out of the secretary’s office, then took two steps forward and whispered to Ruby: “It was my turn to clean Mr. Burton’s office today, so I came in early, and I also cleaned out the trash cans in our office.
That’s when I found this document.
At this point, Ruby frowned slightly.
Although Maya didn’t say it explicitly, Ruby knew that her report had been deliberately thrown into the trash can by someone.
“Ruby, once in school, I almost got kicked out because I couldn’t afford my tuition. You helped me pay for it, and I was able to graduate and join Pristine’s Enterprises. I have always been grateful to you deep down, but as you know, there are some people I can’t afford to offend, so I’m sorry I didn’t just give you this report in the office earlier.”
Maya didn’t mention who deliberately threw Ruby’s report in the trash, but Ruby knew that the person everyone dreaded the most in the secretary’s office was Olivia Foster!
When she first noticed that the report was missing, she thought it might have been Olivia, but she was afraid she had misplaced it herself and didn’t want to jump to conclusions!
Now that Maya had handed her the report, it confirmed her suspicion!
