The usual calm demeanor of N had been shattered in an instant, and her colleagues stood frozen, their eyes glued to the unfolding drama. No one had anticipated that N, typically so gentle andposed, would unleash such a fierce retaliation.


    N released her grip on Lucia’s hair, stepping back as if the act had burned her. Her hands trembled slightly, yet her voice emerged strong and unwavering. She gazed down at Lucia, whoy sprawled on the ground, desperately clutching her swollen cheek, a vivid reminder of the confrontation.


    “You’re insane! How dare you hit me!” Lucia’s voice rang out, a mixture of anger and disbelief, as she struggled to regain her footing. Her meticulously styled hair, once a crown of confidence, was now a chaotic mess, mirroring her inner turmoil.


    N took a moment topose herself, smoothing down her torn blouse with fingers that still quaked from adrenaline. The fabric hung awkwardly at the shoulder, a testament to the physical altercation. She inhaled deeply, summoning the strength to confront Lucia.


    “Lucia,” she began, her toneced with an intensity that sent shivers through the room, “are you absolutely certain you want to make your data maniption public? I believe everyone here would be profoundly interested in understanding what it feels like to be a researcher who would jeopardize a patient’s life for the sake of achieving a sessful oue.”


    The murmurs that surrounded them began to swell, a chorus of hushed voices and exchanged ncesden with implications. The notion of data maniption carried a weighty stigma in their field, one that could end a career in an instant.


    Lucia’splexion paled, the crimson imprint of N’s hand stark against her skin, a physical manifestation of the confrontation’s gravity. The realization hit her hard; if she allowed this scene to escte, her professional reputation would be irreparably tarnished. Her colleagues regarded her now with a mix of suspicion and disdain.


    “This isn’t over,” Lucia hissed, her voice low and venomous. She snatched her purse from her desk, her hands shaking with a mix of rage and fear. “Just wait!”


    She hurried toward the exit, the sharp clicks of her heels echoing in the tense silence, each step a frantic reminder of her retreat. The elevator doors felt like they were moving in slow motion, not closing quickly enough to suit her anxious heart.


    On the second floor, a tall figure leaned casually against the window, observing the tumult below. Damon Summer, impably dressed in a tailored dark suit that entuated his broad shoulders, scrutinized the scene with piercing eyes. Every detail of the confrontation was etched into his memory.


    Beside him, his assistant Spencer adjusted his gold-rimmed sses, his fascination evident as he watched the drama unfold.


    “Sir, did you see how fierce Mrs. N was? She was absolutely relentless,” Spencer remarked, a hint of admiration in his voice. “The way she yanked Lucia’s hair—just brutal!”


    “I noticed,” Damon replied curtly, cutting off Spencer’s enthusiasm.


    N was clearly not the innocent girl he had initially perceived; her resolve in standing up to Lucia revealed a strength he hadn’t anticipated. Yet, he reminded himself, theplexities of rk’s family drama were not his concern.


    Spencer’s curiosity bubbled over. “Should I go down and find out what happened? It seems there’s some serious history between those two.”


    Damon’s gaze hardened, a silent warning emanating from his demeanor. “It seems you’ve taken quite the liberty with your observationstely.”


    Instantly, Spencer straightened, his demeanor shifting to one of professionalism. “No, no, sir! I’m actually quite busy. I still have a mountain of documents to review for the acquisition deal.”


    He mentally chastised himself, realizing he needed to rein in his curiosity. For a fleeting moment, he had thought his boss might have an interest in the unfolding drama involving his nephew’s wife.


    Meanwhile, N rushed to the bathroom, her heart racing. The sting from Lucia’s scratch felt like fire on her skin. Gripping the edge of the sink, she stared into the mirror, confronting her reflection—a face marred by distinct red marks that served as a reminder of her confrontation.


    Turning on the cold water, she cupped it in her hands, the shock of the icy liquid against her inmed skin eliciting a gasp. It was a moment of rity amidst the chaos, a reminder of her strength.


    When she returned to her workstation, Sasha was already waiting, her chair rolling over with urgency. Her eyes widened as she took in N’s face, the evidence of the altercation clear.


    “Oh my god, N! What on earth happened between you and Lucia?” Sasha asked, her voice filled with concern as she gently grasped N’s arm. “Those scratches look serious.”


    N took a seat, exhaling a breath she didn’t realize she was holding. “It’s just a personal grudge. Nothing I can’t manage,” she replied, trying to maintain an air of nonchnce.


    Sasha’s expression darkened, her concern palpable. “You need to be cautious. Lucia is vindictive. She holds grudges like trophies, and she has connections in thispany. She’ll find a way to retaliate.”


    “I’ll keep my guard up,” N assured her, turning her focus to theputer screen, determined to push through the turmoil.


    Meanwhile, Lucia had burst out of thepany building, her heart racing as she fumbled for her phone, her fingers trembling. She dialed her father’s number, desperation creeping into her voice the moment he answered.


    “Dad, I need your help,” she implored, urgencycing her words.


    Clement’s voice sharpened with concern. “What is it? Are you hurt?”


    “Someone has used me of tampering with experimental data,” Lucia confessed, her voice thick with emotion. “Thepany is discussing punishment. Dad, I could lose my job over this.”


    She carefully crafted her narrative, omitting her own guilt and painting N as the viin, a malicious figure acting out of jealousy.


    “That little witch thinks she can ruin my career over something so trivial,” Lucia sobbed into the phone, her voice cracking under the weight of her emotions.


    “Don’t worry, sweetheart,” Clement’s tone turned steely, a protective edge emerging. “I’ve spent two decades building connections in this industry. Let me make some calls.”


    The following afternoon, Lucia found herself summoned to Genevieve’s office, her anxiety palpable as she sat across from her supervisor, who was engrossed in paperwork.


    “Thepany has decided to handle your situation internally,” Genevieve stated without looking up, her voice devoid of empathy. “You will face a sry deduction for one month and receive a formal verbal warning. Consider yourself fortunate.”


    Lucia exhaled slowly, relief mingling with frustration. “Thank you. But what about the person who made the false usation against me?”


    Genevieve looked up, her expression curt. “It was anonymous. We cannot identify who made theint.”


    “I know exactly who it was!” Lucia leaned forward, her eagerness palpable. “It was N Jayston. She—”


    “Stop,” Genevieve interjected sharply. “Without evidence, you’re merely making usations. This matter is closed. Don’t push your luck.”


    After leaving the office, Lucia stormed straight to the R&D department. Most employees had already clocked out for the day, but N remained at her desk, focused on her work beneath the harsh fluorescent lights.


    “N,” Lucia called softly, her voice deceptively sweet. “Scheming behind people’s backs isn’t a real talent, you know. You still have three months left in your internship. idents tend to happen to those who make the wrong enemies.”


    N saved her work, turning to face Lucia with a calm resolve. “If you have so much time to throw around threats, perhaps you should invest it in studying basic research ethics. After all, someone who makes such fundamental errors in data handling clearly needs to brush up on professional standards.”


    Lucia’s face flushed with fury, her hands clenching into fists at her sides, trembling with rage.


    “Fine,” she whispered, her voice low and dangerous. “We’ll see who emerges victorious in the end.”Conclusion
