Chapter 38
“Yes, Lauren, but Professor Owens asked me to help him with his drawing, which requires UG 3D software and is due in the morning.” Joyce chuckled and shrugged. “Could you help Professor Owens for me? I heard that you also major in manufacturing and design.”
Joyce was very articulate and always had a great presence.
“You!” Lauren’s face turned green with anger. She made it into a management position with great efforts and already forgot how to use the software. Was Joyce deliberately defiant? Was her deliberate attempt to make her lose face?
Juanita walked forward to mediate with pleasing smile, “I’ll make coffee. I’ll go. I’m newcomer and I’m the youngest. I should do it.”
Lauren burned up and said loudly, “Get out of the way. It is none of your business.”
Juanita looked at Joyce worriedly and walked away helplessly.
Joyce gave her an “all right” look in return.
Charlotte sat in a place not far away from them, watching the scene, feeling very happy.
Yesterday she complained about Joyce in private with Lauren, and it seemed that Lauren took her words to heart. She thought, it was impossible that everyone liked Joyce, and believed the power can overwhelm her.
“Lauren, I’m sorry for being for ten minutes late. Please don’t feel offended. I can stay after work to clean the room. Is it okay? Please don’t mind it if I offend you in any way.”
Joyce’s sincere words made Lauren speechless.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
No, if Lauren can’t stop Joyce today, how can she continue to be the supervisor in R&S Group in the future?
At this time, Lauren’s sharp eyes noticed that Joyce’s neckline was slightly messed up and a red mark seemed to show on her neck.
She sneered a little. Her keen sense of smell told her that this bitch must have gone somewhere last night, fooling around with men.
No wonder she was late today.
Lauren glanced fiercely at Joyce and then smiled, “Joyce, I only thought you were untouchable because of your own level. I didn’t expect you to be this kind of woman that relys on your body to get to the top.”
“What?” Joyce wondered.
There was no need to be hysteric just because she was a few minutes late. She had already put up with it again and again.
But it was obvious that Lauren didn’t want to let her go.
“Look, your lips are red and swollen. Your shirt is unkempt with a wrinkled collar and red marks on your neck. Tell me, where did you go last night? What kind of wild man are you dating with?”
Joyce was not that kind of woman, but it was clear that Lauren was going to punish her. Everyone was a little worried about Joyce.
“There’s no need to report my personal matters to the company, is there?” Joyce closed her eyes and thought she can’t be bullied by her too much.
“How dare you talk back when I ask you question?” Being annoyed, Lauren raised her hand and stepped forward to hit Joyce.
Juanita was shocked by Lauren’s stance.
Seeing that Lauren was about to slap Joyce.
Joyce quickly took out her hand and intercepted Lauren’s wrist in mid-air. She frowned deeply. Why did people nowadays want to hit others. Martha did, and so did Lauren. She was not at the mercy of others.
Lauren looked incredulously at her squeezed wrist.
She struggled to break free, but could not shake Joyce’s hand off.
Joyce, after all, was a former gun owner, and the strength of her hand was sufficient to deal with a woman.
They stared at each other silently.
Lauren was shocked by the coldness that burst out of Joyce’s eyes.
In this way, Joyce teold Lauren that it was not easy to beat her. There was a limit in everything. Lauren was the leader and she had to put up with it. But now she could no longer tolerate it at.
At that moment, Juanita glimpsed Luther, the big boss, who seemed to be walking this way. She quickly and wisely shouted out, “Good morning, president Warner!”
Lauren froze.
Why was he here?
That meant that she can’t hit someone in front of the president.
