After the two got in the car, it headed towards the Kingston Group across the river.
Inside the vice president’s office.
Mia Lane went to the jewelry production room; today is a crucial day, with the release of the first set of finished products that everyone is eagerly anticipating.
So, only Barbara Sutton was left in the office. The news coverage was comprehensive, with photos and videos, and each piece was richly illustrated with text.
This appearance of Melissa Merce further confirmed that she actually had nothing to do with Special Assistant Morgan, the fiancé title was just nominal.
Moreover, he successfully proposed, and so many people sent their congratulations, clearing Hailey Hale’s name from the accusation of being a third party.
Barbara Sutton couldn’t swallow her anger, feeling her efforts were in vain.
They were actually together!!
Clutching her phone tightly, her eyes flashed with a fierce light, immersed in her envious and uneasy emotions, oblivious to the approaching footsteps.
She also didn’t notice the two people entering the doorway.
Finn Morgan and Hailey Hale locked eyes on the girl in front of the desk; she raised her eyes, holding her phone.
As Barbara Sutton met their gaze, her heart skipped a beat, and her expression went stiff.
"Hello, Special Assistant Morgan." But she reacted quickly, standing up with a smile.
Hailey Hale let go of Finn Morgan’s hand, stepped forward and, catching Barbara Sutton off guard, snatched the phone from her hand.
"Hey! What are you doing?" Barbara Sutton exclaimed in shock, wanting to reach out and retake it but hesitating as Special Assistant Morgan was also present.
Hailey Hale saw the contents on the screen, the discussions about her as a third party. It was a forum where she quickly checked the records of the post and login frequency.
Barbara Sutton realized, "Give me the phone!" She circled the desk.
Finn Morgan took a step to block Barbara Sutton’s path; she paused, raising her eyes and meeting Finn Morgan’s gaze.
She saw the cold warning and authority in his eyes. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs NoveI★Fire.net
Barbara Sutton’s chest tightened, feeling panicked but forced to maintain a semblance of calm.
"It really was you." Hailey Hale snickered without anger, looking at her, "What benefit did you get from defaming me?"
She handed the phone to Barbara Sutton and stared intently at her.
Barbara Sutton met her gaze, dumbfounded, and took the phone.
A loud slap landed on her face!
Hailey Hale landed the slap on Barbara Sutton’s face, and it also pained her arm, which had been injured.
Barbara Sutton was stunned, holding her face in disbelief as she glared at her!
"Considering we’ve been colleagues, I won’t charge you with defamation." Hailey Hale said to her, "If I wanted to press charges, the police could take you away immediately."
These words made Barbara Sutton’s heart tremble, reducing the arrogance and grievance in her eyes, leaving only pitiable guilt.
At this moment, Finn Morgan wrapped his arm around Hailey, saying to Barbara Sutton, "Pack up your things, I’ll talk to CEO Kingston to have you dismissed."
The girl lifted her eyes abruptly, "Special Assistant Morgan..." She was frightened.
But Finn Morgan’s eyes held firm resolve, "Prepare to hand over your work; the Kingston Group doesn’t need someone with such poor character."
After saying this, Finn Morgan looked at the girl in his arms, his gaze and tone softened greatly, "Let’s continue our date, where do you want to go for lunch?"
"To the place you went last night." Hailey smiled, "I was impressed by the wine."
Finn Morgan tidied her hair and left with her.
Leaving only the burning pain on Barbara Sutton’s cheek and the unease and worry in her heart.
"What to do? What to do..." She slumped into her office chair, and, as she came to her senses, dialed Monica Usher’s number.
Soon after, news popped up on her phone screen that Monica Usher had been arrested!
Suddenly, she felt her heart turn cold.
In an instant, she lost her job and her pillar of support.
