Looking at how Fiona aggrievedly compromised, many staff instantly felt compa*sion for her.
“Director Luna is too unreasonable and unforgiving. Ms. Blake only came in yesterday, and she might genuinely be unfamiliar with things.“
“Yes. Getting the president’s girlfriend to apologize to her… She’s only a designer. How arrogant.“
“What do you know? This is because the president was targeting her three a*sistants yesterday, so she’s taking it out on Ms. Blake now.“
“You’ll only get bullied if you’re too kind…“
Luna heard every word, even though they spoke hushedly.
Naturally, Fiona had heard them, too. She had an inconspicuous hint of smugness in her eyes.
“Don’t worry, Ms. Luna. I’ll resort to being a timid little dog and try not to make you angry.“
The moment Fiona said that, an explosive fit of rage erupted in Luna’s heart.
Shannon and Zayne looked at each other, and their faces contorted uglily.
‘Being a timid little dog and trying not to make you angry.’
These were almost the same words Luna was forced to say to Joshua at the hospital the day before!
Fiona was doing this deliberately!
While it might seem she was apologizing to Luna, she was, in fact, mocking what Luna said yesterday.
Not only that, but Fiona was reminding her of it and provoking her, too!
Luna angrily stood up from her chair. “Ms. Blake, why do you have to make me sound like a bully? I’m only pointing out the mistakes that you’ve committed. I only want you to pay for the things that you’ve done. Why do you make me sound like I’m a bully and a domineering b*tch?“
The atmosphere dropped a few degrees upon Luna’s words.
Joshua narrowed his eyes.
“Luna, it looks like you’ve already forgotten what you went through yesterday.“
Luna shuddered a little. She narrowed her eyes and wanted to say something else when Fiona already took one step by Joshua’s side.
“Joshua, I’ve already apologized for this matter. Forget about it.“ Fiona smiled and tugged at Joshua’s hands. “Ms. Luna is right; I shouldn’t have intruded into her office without permission. I went
against the company’s rules. I ’11 write a review on my behavior and read it out in the next company meeting.”
Then, Fiona pursed her lips and suppressed her voice, saying in a voice only she and Joshua could hear, “Furthermore, I don’t have that many days to
live. Don’t ruin your power in Lynch Group because of me.”
Seeing how mature and understanding she was, Joshua looked a little heartbroken.
It was not about feelings toward her—he only pitied Fiona.
Joshua sighed and hugged Fiona in his arms. “Let’s go.”
Fiona bit her lips and said shyly, “We’re still at work. Where are you taking me to?”
“To my office.”
It was then Joshua suddenly thought of something, and he coldly glanced back at Luna. “I want to see you at my office ten minutes after this. Otherwise, you’ll bear the consequences.”
