Chapter 80 Ms. Everly, Don't Bother
Chapter 80 Ms. Everly, Don't Bother
"What's this about?" Marlon stared straight at me with indifferent eyes and a cold mocking tone.
"Mr. Redford, don't overthink. I'm just doing this as a friend, or perhaps a family member in the
future...." I smiled. Before he could reply, I pushed away his hand and left.
Behind me, Marlon's deep fiery eyes narrowed.
I knew he was staring at me, but I didn't turn around. My heart was up in the air as I went all the way
out of Marlon Group. I had to admit that, in front of Marlon, I was always like an intimidated slave no
matter how much power he had granted me.
Come on, Rachael, you had done better than ever before. I thought as I looked up at the sunny blue
sky.
I beamed at myself.
After leaving Marlon Group, I went directly back to Universal Group. As soon as I stepped into my
office, Everly called out to me, leaving me standing there surrounded by gloating colleagues.
"Rachael, are you taking Universal Group seriously? Are you taking us seriously?" Everly berated me
with cold eyes.
Before I could say anything, Everly sneered, "Rachael, everyone in this room knows about your
relationship with Mr. Charles and how you got in. But you don't ever take our rules seriously. Are you
trying to tell us how proud you are that you've earned your salary and privilege by sleeping with him?"
The smile on my face instantly froze as I stared coldly at Everly.
"Exactly. It's only been a few days since she got here. She didn't go through our interview, nor did she
accomplish anything. How else could she get in?" A lady sitting closest to me snorted and agreed.
"That's right. Everyone else here has at least a master's degree. What about her? Where does she
come from? Maybe she hasn't even finished school. She is worthless. How dare she be so arrogant?
Shame on her!"
"I've never seen anyone so shameless before. Ms. Everly is an elite postgraduate from overseas.
Under her guidance, our department used to rank among top three of the group. This woman has been
a drag since she came. The other day, she signed an order of a few billion like an idiot. Maybe she
really is an idiot!"
"Needless to say, she can't read in foreign language!" another colleague mocked.
But I just listened quietly to their mockery without saying anything.
I had never been welcomed ever since I set foot in Universal Group. The people here had always been
judging me.
"Rachael, you have no right to idle around and desert your post whenever you feel like. Even though
you sold your own body, you don't own this company!"
"Ms. Everly, I know the company isn't mine. But...." I ran my eyes around the room and then stared at
her, "It belongs to my boyfriend!" I was loud.
Just then, I heard gasping and cursing coming from all directions, "Shameless indeed! Boyfriend? For
heaven's sake, how can she say that? "
"Why doesn't she take a good look at herself? For Mr. Charles, it was just a spur of the moment.
Boyfriend? She is sick and mad!" Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
"For a cheap girl like her, Mr. Charles will get tired pretty soon. Let's see what happens when the time
comes!"
"What happens? A shameless woman like her will be begging him on her knees of course!"
The colleagues became louder and wilder. They probably didn't expect what I just said, especially
about the man they all dreamed of.
Everly's face was cold, but she didn't stop them. The corners of her pretty mouth turned up. Of course,
I knew she wished they would tear me apart right now.
I just stood there calmly, unperturbed by their curses.
"Alright, enough!" After a long time, Everly waved her hand with satisfaction and said to me in a matter-
of-fact tone, "Rachael, look, everyone earned his or her own place at Universal Group. I don't care if
you think you can keep Mr. Charles at your side by sleeping with him. As long as you are in my
department, I will not have you idling and dragging us down. I will kick you out if I have to!"
"Yes, nice going, Everly!"
"Ms. Everly is really wise enough to know the boundaries. We are following the right leader. Unlike
other companies, we won't tolerate those who get in through nasty means. Our department is bound to
become better under Ms. Everly lead!"
"That's right! I will follow Ms. Everly's lead for the rest of my life. We don't have to worry about
boundaries anymore!" Everyone was siding with Everly.
Everly's mouth curved into a joyful smile as she looked down on me, "Rachael, you heard them. We
only want real talent and fairness. But today, you were absent from work without any notice!" she
looked out of the window pompously, "Look, It's already lunch time. I already handed over a task to you
yesterday. According to the schedule, you should have already got the contract signed. You've failed to
keep up, haven't you?" she said.
Everly paused and continued with a louder voice, "According to the company system, those who fail to
fulfil their duties shall be dismissed. Of course, you got in through the special favor of Mr. Charles. I
won't dismiss you out of respect for him. But there must be punishment!"
"Yes, let there be punishment. There must be!" Right then, my colleagues were all filled with righteous
indignation, like that of an ancient uprising.
"She is a slut who betrays her body. But to show our respect to Mr. Charles, we have to turn a blind
eye, don't we?"
"Yes. His body is still precious. We have no choice!" Everyone was heckling me with contempt and
mockery.
I looked around. Everyone was gloating with a twisted face. If it was in ancient times, I would have
been stoned to death or encaged. Everly was joyful as if she was lofty above all living beings.
I smiled, "Ms. Everly, don't bother. I have already signed the contract with the chairman of Marlon
Group ... Marlon himself!" I took out the contract from my purse and handed it to her.
