Chapter 1439: Chapter 1439: Miranda Lewis Reaps What She Sows Chapter 1439: Chapter 1439: Miranda Lewis Reaps What She Sows Enna Clark wasn’t the type to covet small advantages, especially now that she could afford not to.
She gently took out her own bank card, handed it over, and said to the saleswoman, “I’m sorry for the trouble, but please use mine. The password is 0801.”
This bank card was given to her by Old Madam Habsden, and the password was set to her birthday. Enna had never checked how much money was in it, but she knew there had to be a considerable amount.
The saleswoman, who had been watching their conversation from the beginning, had already discerned the relationship between the three people and without any hesitation, she took Enna’s bank card, “Okay, I will process your payment right now.”
Then, looking at Director Liu, “Mr. Brown, sorry, but this lady insists on using her own card, so I’ll have to use yours next time.”
Director Liu’s mouth twitched with an awkward smile as he retracted his card and turned to Enna, “Secretary Clark, you really are too polite. I already said that I would cover the bill today as an apology. And yet…”
It was Miranda Lewis who had offended her, not Director Liu. Enna was clear on this point. She didn’t want to embarrass everyone involved and said courteously, “No, it’s a gift for a friend. If Mr. Brown pays for it, it loses its meaning. Next time, if I run into Mr. Brown again, then I will shamelessly accept without apology.”
Mr. Brown, hearing her words, let out a long sigh of relief in his heart. His smile became a few degrees more genuine, “Certainly, certainly. Secretary Clark, please don’t stand on ceremony with me, or I will be the one feeling embarrassed.”
The saleswoman quickly completed the transaction and walked over with Enna’s bank card, returning it to her, “Miss, your payment has been successful. Here is your card, please keep it safe.”
She also held a paper bag, which she handed to Enna along with the bank card, “Additionally, this is a gift from our brand, a tie from the same collection. Please accept it.”
“Thank you.”
Enna accepted it and bid Director Liu farewell, “I have other matters to attend to, so I must be going. Excuse me.”
“Secretary Clark, take care, take care,” Director Liu said with a smile, as he saw Enna off from the store and watched her walk away.
The smile on his face vanished suddenly. Before Miranda Lewis could react to what was happening, she was struck across the face with a backhand slap.
A loud “smack” echoed as the slap sent Miranda staggering.
“What are you doing!” Miranda was boiling with anger. It was bad enough that Director Liu had hit her, but to do so in public was too much. Even if she didn’t want to offend her backer, she couldn’t help but lash out.
At this point, Director Liu felt like strangling her and was completely unmoved by her reaction, speaking coldly, “What am I doing? I’m trying to slap some sense into your water-logged brain! Rest for a while; the company won’t be assigning you any work temporarily. I hope you use this time off to drain your head of water, otherwise, you can forget about working at all!”
Rest, no work assigned equals being frozen out!
Miranda finally realized what was happening.
But Director Liu didn’t give her a chance to argue. He no longer cared to buy the clothes and, with a huff, turned and left.
With her left cheek numb from the slap and panic setting in, Miranda couldn’t care less whether people on the street were taking her photo or not, and she ran after him recklessly, “Mr. Brown, wait for me…”
As she chased after him, those who had snapped photos of her swelling cheek had already uploaded the pictures online.
Before long, rumors of her being slapped as a mistress were flying all over the internet.
The scandal she had intended to leak about Olivia Lewis had now turned right back on her!
