Lizetta barely nced at Andrea before she whipped out her phone and snapped a picture.


    "What are you doing?!" Andrea frowned.


    Lizetta rolled her eyes and waved her phone. "Don''t be jealous. I wasn''t just loafing around this morning. But posting this pic on thepany intr? Your department manager might think you''re having a too easy, chatting over desserts during work hours."


    Since Andrea had taken a jab at her for not working diligently.


    Lizetta wasn''t about to be polite either. Andrea immediately stood up and said, "You''ve got it all wrong. I came to pick up the project budget report. Mrs. Laura just hasn''t finished organizing it and asked me to wait here for a moment.


    Liz, by your logic, are you implying Mrs. Laura isn''t working diligently either by chatting with me?"


    Andrea stepped forward, frowning at Lizetta and continued, "It''s one thing to use me, but you can''t nder Mrs. Laura like that. As far as I know, she''s always been very dedicated to her work."


    Laura''s attitude towards her was clearly influenced by Eartha.


    Lizetta wasn''t afraid of offending Laura since her stance towards Laura was always dictated by Eartha''s whims.


    Therefore, Lizetta didn''t care about Andrea''s insinuations and simplyughed, saying, "I didn''t say anything. You''re the one implying Mrs. Laura isn''t working diligently, and you''re also the one defending her."


    Lizetta pped for Andrea mockingly, "Nice performance. What does Mrs. Laura think?"


    Andrea was left speechless with frustration, and seeing this, Laura came around the desk and said to Lizetta, "Let''s not make a big deal out of nothing. Liz is Ms. Madden; it''s okay if shees inte or even if she skips a few days. We shouldn''t let this cause any unpleasantness."


    Lizetta looked at Laura, "What do you mean by that?"


    Laura quickly smiled at her and added, "Don''t get me wrong. What I mean is, if you''re busy and need a few days off, it''s no problem. I''ll make sure everything is covered here. After all, it''s the Madden family''spany, and your happiness andfort are what''s


    most important.


    Besides, if you want to make a mark and show everyone your aplishments, I can arrange for you to be added to a few important projects as a responsible party."


    Laura''s smile was warm and appeasing, and Andrea looked on enviously, "Liz, Mrs. Laura is really good to you."


    Lizetta chuckled lightly. Was this Laura being nice?


    It seemed more like Laura was afraid of her actuallymitting to her job at thepany.


    "Mrs. Laura, I came here to work. I''ve been diligently finishing the tasks you assigned over the past few days. Where have I fallen short to make you think I''m here to y? Or what have I done to give you the impression that I''dfortably take credit for others'' work?"


    Laura was taken aback by Lizetta''s directness, struggling to respond. Andrea intervened, "Liz, Mrs. Laura has been nothing but supportive. Why are you deliberately misunderstanding her?"


    Laura regained herposure and frowned, "You''ve got it wrong. I heard..." "Heard what?"


    "Liz, there''s no need to hide it. Lilian already came in to report her work. We all know you were escorted out by the security at the Starlight Group, and the project hasn''t progressed at all, not even adetter of intent, straight into the trash. If not for considering your reputation, why else would Mrs. Laura go out of her way to help you by taking over someone else''s project? And yet, you still misunderstand Mrs. Laura."
