    “Tell her the CEO of Missy <b>is </b>out of the country on business. You can’t even handle something this small?”


    Faced with Eliza’s words, Brandon looked even more troubled<b>. </b>“Ms. Rivers, she’s in the store yelling that she wants to see Eliza, she even called out your name. I didn’t want to risk exposing your identity, so.”


    The only people who knew Eliza’s identity were the store managers and executives who had gone through strict training from the very beginning, as well as Missy’s internal employees. On their first day, every employee <b>was </b>strictly instructed never to reveal any internal information about thepany.


    Naturally, no one would ever expose Eliza’s identity.


    But hearing that the woman wasn’t asking <b>for </b>the CEO of Missy, but for Eliza specifically, put Eliza instantly


    on alert.


    The only people who knew who she really was besides Soren were Matteo and a select few.


    No one else knew her true identity. So why would a woman show up at Missy’srgest store, loudly demanding to


    see me?


    “Wait there. I’lle take a <b>look</b>.”


    Brandon finally let out a breath of relief when Eliza agreed.


    She added, “Send me the security footage. I want to see who this woman is.


    “Yes. Ms. Rivers.<b>” </b>


    Brandon quickly had the store staff <b>send </b>over the surveince video.


    In the footage, the woman causing a scene was wearing a white dress, it was clearly ine.


    Seeing it was ine gave Eliza <b>a </b>headache.


    She hadn’t expected ine to be so clingy and unrelenting that she’d actually show up at the store. But how <i>did </i>she even know about my connection to Missy?


    “Handle things here for me while I step out for a bit.”


    “Yes, Ms. Rivers.”


    Eliza put <b>away </b>her phone, grabbed her <b>car </b>keys, and left the office.


    But as she reached the lobby, she overheard a few receptionists whispering while looking at their phones.


    “That woman must be mentally ill. I didn’t think it would blow up like this.”


    “<b>Look</b>, someone in thements says she was just discharged <b>from </b>the hospital and her <b>mental </b>state’s extremely unstable.”


    “Ourpany’s so unlucky. If this turns into something serious, are we all going to lose our jobs?”


    <b>Hearing </b>this, Eliza walked over and asked, “What were you just talking about?”


    <b>Ms. </b>Rivers!”


    wed,

    The two receptionists jumped in surprise, they hadn’t expected Eliza to suddenly appear<b>. </b>


    Eliza nced at their phones and raised a hand. “Give it to me.”


    The two looked at each other, then reluctantly handed her the phone.


    Eliza <b>took </b>one look.


    Someone had started a livestream online.

    The stream showed <b>ine </b>making a scene inside Missy’s store, <b>and </b>she’d already smashed quite a few things.


    A crowd had gathered outside to watch the whole drama unfold.


    The viewer count had already spiked to over three thousand.


    Eliza returned the phone and said calmly. “No cking off on the job. Put your phones away.”


    Hearing her steady tone, the receptionists finally rxed.


    “I was so scared just <b>now</b>–I <b>thought </b>Ms. Rivers was angry.


    “No way. That woman’s clearly unwell. We should report the stream right now.”


    With that, the two started fiddling with their phones again.


    Meanwhile, Eliza drove straight to Missy.


    The store was packed with onlookers, <b>all </b>watching to see how far this woman would take things.


    Brandon had walked right up to ine and said, “Madam, you’ve been causing a scene for over an hour. If you keep <b>this </b>up, we’ll be forced to call the police.”


    “<b>Go </b>ahead and call them.”


    ine said nonchntly, “If I don’t see Eliza <b>today</b>, I’m not leaving.”


    “I’ve told you over and over, we don’t have an employee named Eliza,”


    “That’s impossible. I just saw her on the news at Missy. She’s obviously one of your staff!”


    ine was certain Eliza worked there. How else could <i>she </i>have been involved in helping Missy handle that crisis?


    That incident with Soren had even made it onto the trending list.


    “What do I <b>have </b>to say to get through to <b>you</b>? If you keep this up, I really will…”


    Brandon, terrified this situation might get him removed from his position, raised his phone to call the police.


    At that moment, Eliza arrived.


    Seeing Brandon about to dial she pushed through the crowd <b>and </b>stepped inside.


    Brandon, noticing Eliza hade, quickly approached and exined what had happened.

    But she remained seated, <b>waiting </b>for Eliza to walk over.
