Chapter 59 A Storm At the Secretary Department
Chapter 59 A Storm At the Secretary Department
After Yvonne left, Autumn returned to her office with mixed feelings. The moment she entered the
room, Jenny said sarcastically, "Oh my god, the moral degeneration of the world is getting worse day
by day. You cannot judge a tree by its bark. What do you say, Linda?"
"You're right." Linda cast a contemptuous glance at Autumn and taunted, "Someone looks innocent, but
is so indiscreet in her personal life. She keeps her ex-boyfriend hanging on while seducing our boss.
Shame on her!"
"Enough of this chitchat!" David scowled at Jenny and Linda. After Autumn married Charles as the
substitute of Yvonne, she was fired by Cloud Advertising Company first, and then maltreated by the
colleagues here. David couldn't help feeling sorry for her sufferings. "Have you finished all your work?
Are you free?"
"David, why are you favoring her? Do you have a crush on her?" Jenny sneered, "That's not surprising,
she is both pretty and immoral. No wonder you like her."
"Enough!" Autumn didn't want to deal with Jenny and Linda as she wouldn't be here for a long time. But
they discredited her with the ugly gossip. Autumn could not bear it any longer.
"I have never offended any of you. I didn't argue with you because I'm good-tempered, but this doesn't
mean I will tolerate it forever. If you dare say this again, I swear I won't spare you." Autumn stated
seriously.
Linda fixed her eyes upon Autumn, and suddenly she realized that Autumn was not a pushover. She
was not as stupid as Jenny, so she said no more.
Jenny gave a scornful laugh and said in a voice dripping with sarcasm, "You're pissed off because I
was telling the truth. I'm not finished yet."
Linda stood silently, watching how this was turning out to be. Jenny walked over to Autumn and stated,
"Ye, listen, if you want to stay here, you'd better behave. I don't care who you are or how many
boyfriends you have, I'm warning you, if you hold an improper thought for Mr. Lu, I won't spare you!
Do not act like a bitch in the company. We don't like that." Jenny gave Autumn a scornful stare.
Before Autumn was able to say something, Charles's solid voice came from outside the door. He had
called David, but David didn't answer. So, he came here to see what happened, but heard Jenny's
voice at the door. He asked with a frown, "Who are you threatening?" This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Mr. Lu."
"Mr. Lu." The moment Charles entered, everyone went silent. Jenny stood angrily and thought, 'If
Charles were not here, I would teach her a lesson.'
"Mr. Lu..." David was not good at mediating disputes. He was almost moved to tears as Charles was
his savior.
"Jenny, what did you just say?" Charles walked past David and went to Jenny. He stared at her and
demanded, "Say it again."
"Mr... Mr. Lu." Charles had a straight face, which scared Jenny a little bit. But she picked up the
courage to look Charles in the eye when thinking of Autumn striving for Charles's favor in the future.
She questioned, "Mr. Lu, I don't understand why you enrolled her. She is good for nothing except her
pretty face. Linda and I are capable enough to assist you."
Jenny continued in exasperation, "Linda and I have served as your secretaries since we entered the
company. I think we have worked with great facility. I don't understand why you hired her."
"Do you also think the same way?" Charles raised her eyebrows and looked at Linda who stood next to
Jenny.
Linda was discontented with Jenny's words as Jenny had dragged her into this. She could tell that
Charles took Autumn's side. Hearing Charles's question, Linda tried her best to be neutral. She gave a
sweet smile.
"Mr. Lu, I believe you have your own reasons to recruit Ye. I don't have the right to interfere in your
decision making." Linda had successfully stayed out of this, but left Jenny alone in a trap of her own
making.
Autumn frowned. Obviously, Jenny lacked judgement. Although Jenny had flung mud at her, she
believed Jenny was easy to manipulate as she was frank and open.
But Linda was much more clever. Before Charles entered the room, Linda had also said many
damaging things. But since Charles was here, she pretended that she had nothing to do with this.
Autumn had secretly decided to be careful with Linda in the future.
"Linda, how dare you say that? It was you..." Jenny got mad as she realized that Linda had put the
blame on her. She was about to explain, but Linda would not give her the chance.
"Jenny, Ye is a new employee. We don't know her ability yet. You shouldn't speak ill of her." Linda told
Jenny.
"You..."
"Enough!" Charles interrupted them and turned towards Jenny, "You are right. Three assistants are
enough for the work."
Jenny was excited with joy.
"So..." Charles gave a tiny smile and continued, "You are fired. Ye would take over your work. Go to the
HR Department and leave this office by afternoon. I'll ask the HR Manager to pay you the extra salary."
"Wh... what?" Jenny was shocked. She could not believe what she just heard.
"Didn't I make myself clear?" Charles furrowed his brow.
"Mr. Lu, this is not the case..." Jenny panicked, "Why did you fire me? Ye should be the one..."
"Are you the boss of the company?" Charles sneered and turned to David, "David, take her to the HR
Department."
Charles cast a stern glance at Linda, "Let's make the premise clear first. If I hear any rumors in the
company from now on, I won't spare you too."
Though Charles didn't take any names, Linda knew he was warning her.
Linda lowered her head with a frozen face. She couldn't help wondering who Ye really was, as Charles
seemed to cared about her so much.
