Free Web NovelChapter 2639: Chapter 112: I Promise, You Won’t Suffer Such Grievances
"Stella, you really messed up this time. The document’s save and print times can’t be changed... Johnson wasn’t in Secretary Wellington’s room just now."
"Yeah, it really was a misunderstanding... We’ve all been disturbed late at night."
Other colleagues also felt awkward at this moment, some tried to smooth things over, while others complained a bit to Stella Brown.
Stella hadn’t expected Johnson to produce such ’solid evidence’, and was dumbfounded, unable to react for a while.
At this point, Maggie finally spoke again.
"Alright, alright, since it’s all a misunderstanding, let’s just clear it up. It’s late, everyone should go back and sleep... Secretary Wellington, you should rest early too. Stella, come with me."
Maggie was clearly helping Stella Brown out of the predicament, and others, wary of Maggie’s seniority, naturally didn’t say much more.
Having suffered a loss earlier, Stella heard Sylvia’s words and learned her lesson, knowing the other was providing her a way out.
She nodded silently and obediently followed Maggie to leave.
But a cold voice called out: "Wait a moment..."
Molly Wellington leaned against the doorframe, her delicate face carrying a chilling frost: "How can you just walk away after making a mistake? Stella Brown disrupted everyone’s dreams in the middle of the night and accused me of inappropriate relations and having office affairs.
She speaks irresponsibly, but who will speak up for me when I’m wronged?
This matter won’t end so easily. She must apologize to me tonight, and afterward, I will tell Mr. Taylor about it in full detail, and every complaint and critique deserved will be issued, not a single one missed."
Molly Wellington was no pushover; watching the chaos these past few days was just to allow them to become arrogant, ready to deal with them all at once.
What, did they really think she could be easily manipulated?
"Secretary Wellington, Stella is still young, just let her apologize to you, forget about the internal criticism. You’re the old man, don’t hold such things against a newcomer," Maggie couldn’t help but plead for Stella Brown.
An internal critique would certainly affect Stella Brown’s future promotion; the cost was too great.
Molly Wellington didn’t respond, maintaining a frosty facade, casting a slight sideways glance at Stella Brown with almond-shaped eyes.
Maggie assumed Molly Wellington acquiesced, immediately nudging Stella Brown with her elbow: "Stella, hurry up and apologize to Secretary Wellington."
"..." Stella Brown bit back, unwilling to apologize to Molly Wellington, it was impossible!
Maggie lowered her voice to urge, "Stella, don’t act impulsively, quickly apologize."
Stella Brown: "Secretary Wellington, I’m sorry."
Molly Wellington arched her brow: "What, I didn’t hear clearly."
"You..." Stella Brown knew Molly Wellington was doing this on purpose.
"Hm?" Molly Wellington’s gaze carried a frosty edge.
Faced with Molly Wellington’s stare, Stella Brown instinctively felt intimidated.
Behind her, Maggie was still urging, after several hesitations, she finally bowed her head.
"Secretary Wellington... I’m sorry, it was my mistake earlier, I got up late at night and didn’t see clearly, wrongfully accused you. I... I apologize to you here, I’m sorry..."
Finally, Stella Brown lowered her ’proud’ head.
Molly Wellington smiled, her smile slightly cold, taking a deep look at Stella Brown with her head bowed and Maggie behind her with a stern expression. She shut the door behind her.
As the room’s door closed from the inside, locking in an instant.
A large hand suddenly encircled her slender waist from behind, the arm tightening, pulling her into an embrace.
The man behind her spoke in a low, cold, magnetic voice: "Those people outside were clearly targeting you. Are you really deciding not to pursue them? Molly... have you considered joining Loyalty Group, I promise... you’ll never be treated unfairly like this."
