Chapter 163

Aurelia wanted to say it was nobody, but recalled that this person was also a gossiping. member of the

building’s chat group.

If she started spreading rumors, Aurelia would have to explain herself again.

She really didn’t want to become the focus of discussion, especially with that building group including

Seth.

“That’s my husband. He happened to pass by to see me,” Aurelia said.

The girl’s eyes widened with surprise. “Your… Your husband?”

Aurelia nodded.

The woman whispered, “It’s no wonder you dumped Seth. That guy looks stunning even from the

back.”

Ignoring that comment, Aurelia said, “I’ve reached my floor.” With that, she walked out of the elevator.

Returning to the office, it was eerily quiet inside.

Everyone kept their heads down, and Millie was burying her head on her desk, sniffling.

Apparently, Zachary had already given her a stern talking-to.

Aurelia tiptoed back to her seat and turned on her laptop.

The screen lit up with a notification from the workgroup.

“Millie from the Marketing Department was found spreading false information among colleagues and

fabricating rumors. 150 dollars will be deducted from her commission and she will be required to write a

reflection letter of one thousand words.”

“Kimberly from the same department plagiarized a proposal and leaked internal company information.

300 dollars will be deducted from her commission and she will be required to write a reflection letter of

one thousand words. She will be on probation for three months in her current position.”

Aurelia remained unfazed as she read this, her admiration for Leslie growing.

It was nearly identical to what Leslie had predicted.

Although it seemed both Millie and Kimberly received punishment and the plagiarism by Kimberly had

been acknowledged, the boss had left a way out for Kimberly.

The deduction in commission/meant nothing significant to Kimberly. She simply needed to avoid trouble

for three months and she would still be the vice director.

On the other hand, Millie ended up being fined and humiliated as the scapegoat for Kimberly.

That explained why she was sobbing miserably.

Still, Aurelia didn’t feel any pity for Millie. She closed the notification and continued working.

Just then, Kimberly walked out of her office.

“I’m treating everyone to afternoon tea. Just order whatever you want.”

The office fell into silence as no one dared to take her up on her offer.

Kimberly’s lips twitched, and she looked at Aurelia with resentment as she strode towards her.

“Aurelia, you should learn to be more generous. Your proposal belongs to the company and I merely

took it to One Technology for you.”

Kimberly was still desperately trying to evade responsibility and attempted to mislead everyone.

However, after what happened earlier, no one dared to side with her.

Seeing this, Kimberly glared at her usually supportive colleagues.

Aurelia looked up at her and said, “Ms. Watson, while it’s true that my planning was done for the

company, it wasn’t for you. Since you’re so generous, you wouldn’t blame everyone for not taking you

up on your offer, right?”

Kimberly laughed angrily when she heard the way Aurelia addressed her.

“Aurelia, so you do know that I’m still the vice director, after all. What’s the point in all that you did,

then?”

“Well, the collaboration with One Technology has introduced me to plenty of big shots and my bonus

will double. That’s not so bad. You, our dear vice director, may not be able to manage your staff if you

can’t even hit the sales target, right?” Aurelia said thoughtfully.

“Why you—Why won’t I hit the sales target?” Kimberly gritted out.

“Let’s wait and see, then.” Aurelia smiled.

“Just wait, Kimberly. You will reap what you sow,” she thought. “Who would work with her after knowing

that she became vice director through copying others’ work?”

Kimberly would certainly end up with nothing to show despite being given the title of vice director.

This would make her time in this position extremely miserable.

Livid, Kimberly stormed back into her office.

Aurelia lowered her head and noticed someone watching her. She turned around and met Millie’s eyes.

Without saying a word, she looked away. Millie was taken aback and felt hurt by this.
