Eugene’s tone was frosty. Mnie pressed her lips and said nothing as she dragged Dn out <b>of </b>there.
It was thepany’s working hours. Vi, Julie, and Lee were present.
News of Dning to see Eugene had spread quickly throughout the office. Vi smiled when she saw Mnie dragging Dn out. She looked at Mnie. “Mnie, this is a ce of work, after all. I think it’s best that you talk to your mother and make sure she doesn’t barge in like this again.”
There was no need for Vi to be putting up pretenses in front of Mnie anymore. There was a sarcastic smile on her face. “Fortunately, it was Mr. Scott and I who bumped into her. Otherwise, the security guards would’ve thrown her out, and that would’ve been quite humiliating.”
Mnie felt ufortable with Vi’s words, but she was not in the mood to say anything to her.
Her swollen arm continued gripping Dn, and the pain slowly spread upward.
Unfortunately, Dn continued stirring up trouble. Mnie had a grip on her arm, but Dn still managed to say to Vi, “That’s true. It’s all thanks to you that I managed to get inside, Vi.”
The disgusted look in Vi’s eyes got deeper, but she quickly hid it and smiled. “You shoulde along with Mnie the next time you’re here. She’s been with thepany for a long time, after all, and many of us know her. No one would stop you froming in.‘
“Am I right, Mnie?”
Vi asked Mnie after she was done talking.
Mnie ignored her.
Vi was right. Mnie had been working at LeapCo for many years, and a lot of people here know her.
However, she had now left thepany. LeapCo rules stated that non–employees were not allowed inside thepany.
Vi made it sound grand, but all she wanted was for Mnie toe here with Dn to be humiliated.
She was looking forward to witnessing this, and Dn had taken her advice seriously.
No emotions were shown on Mnie’s face as she looked at Vi and said coldly, “Haven’t you learned to do more and speak less after being a secretary here for so long?”
Mnie dragged Dn out after saying this to Vi.
Vi was standing not far from where they were. Mnie bumped into her shoulder while on her way out.
This made Vi stumble a few steps back. She stared unhappily at Mnie, who was walking
away<b>. </b>
Who did <b>she </b>think she was?
Mnie was now <b>the </b></divughingstock of <b>the </bpany. She had no right to still <b>be </b>sitting on her high horse.
While in the elevator, Mnie was in a daze <b>as </b>it went down.
She had thought of multiple scenarios of how <b>she </b>would leave LeapCo, and none of them involveding over to drag Dn away. It felt like she was being kicked out of here, and it was humiliating.
Many people came and went while Mnie was on her way down in the elevator. They cast strange looks at them when they noticed Mnie’s grip on Dn.
Mnie did not seem to notice. She pulled Dn out of the elevator immediately the moment they arrived on the first floor.
The heavy rain showed no signs of stopping. Mnie could feel the raindrops on her face as the wind galed at her while she stood in the corridor.
She took a deep breath and flung Dn’s hand away. Mnie said stoically, “Wait here. I’m getting the car.”
Mnie did not want to argue with Dn at thepany. Too many people had witnessed Mnie’s humiliation here.
She was physically and mentally exhausted. She would have broken down if she did not forcefully pull herself together.
Mnie did not expect Dn to be a reliable factor in her life. However, it never urred to her that Dn would actuallye to see Eugene and demand money from him in a matter–of -fact manner.
She allowed the rain to hit her face. She found no point in avoiding the rain. It was helping her sober up slightly anyway.
Dn had not said anything to Mnie since Mnie’s appearance, but now, she suddenly questioned unhappily, “What are you doing here?”
