“Why are you being so secretive about it? Is there something you can’t tell me?”

“I really don’t know him,” Aurelia asserted firmly.

The manager’s expression showed clear disdain as if Aurelia deliberately refused to help her climb the

social ladder.

“It’s signed. The hotel has an event tonight, so I can only give you half an hour to check out.”

With that, the manager handed her the signed document and left.

Aurelia found it baffling. If she had really climbed the social ladder, would she need to be so

subservient?

With the document in hand, Aurelia returned to the banquet hall, but Kimberly had already left. Left with

no choice, she helped the decorators remove the arrangements.

Back at the office, Aurelia noticed that her colleagues were less welcoming than they had been in the

morning. Some even seemed to be avoiding her.

Kimberly was leisurely sipping her coffee, a smile of triumph in her eyes that she couldn’t hide.

Perplexed, Aurelia sat back at her desk, turned to look at Millie, and whispered, “Millie, what’s going

on?”

Millie pressed her lips together and shook her head. She said nothing, avoiding eye contact. with

Aurelia.

It was as if she and Aurelia weren’t close at all.

Aurelia was puzzled when Zachary returned with a complex expression from the boss’s office.

Kimberly couldn’t wait and stood up, saying, “Mr. Zeller, is everything okay now? I really didn’t expect

Aurelia to offend a foreign guest. Now, the guest must be causing trouble for the company, right?

“It’s all my fault! I couldn’t stop her from getting close to the foreign guest. But she threatened me. She

said if I didn’t let her go, she’d accuse me and Mr. Lynch of having an inappropriate relationship.

“Mr. Zeller, is the company going to be all right? Will this have an impact on our entire planning

department?”

As soon as she spoke, all the colleagues looked at Aurelia with resentment.

Then, Aurelia realized Kimberly had returned early to file a complaint against her.

She stood up and explained, “The other party’s misbehavior happened first, and I addressed it

appropriately. It did not disrupt the conference’s progress.”

Kimberly sneered, “Aurelia, is your way of handling things beating up the guest until he’s bruised and

battered?”

Aurelia furrowed her brows and emphasized, “I acted in self–defense.”

“Did your self–defense involve not allowing the guest to even get up from the ground? He’s the vice

president of a biotech company, worth millions. You’re also competing for the position of Vice

President. Can’t you handle a small matter?

“Customer is king! If other clients find out about this, who would still choose us? Are we all going to

starve?”

Kimberly seized the opportunity to attack Aurelia relentlessly.

Under the intense scrutiny of her colleagues, Aurelia bit her lip before replying firmly, “If prioritizing

customers means taking a hit by drinking spiked red wine, then you should step up and drink it instead

of hiding and cowering in fear.”

Kimberly sneered, “How dare you accuse others of spiking red wine? He’s a foreigner, highly educated,

and a Vice President of his company. Why would he have a reason to target you? Seriously? It’s not

like he has poor eyesight.”

Some colleagues joined in with laughter, ridiculing Aurelia’s arrogance. However, most of them wore

expressions of indifference.

Aurelia clenched her fists, saying, “In that case, I wish you all the best in encountering foreign Vice

Presidents worth millions in the future. I’m sure you’ll be delighted to drink that glass of wine.!!

Kimberly and those who had laughed awkwardly froze as Aurelia ruthlessly taunted them.

Everyone knew who was in the wrong, but they just enjoyed seeing others in difficult situations.

Kimberly flared her nostrils and turned to look at Zachary. “Mr. Zeller, what punishment did the boss

decide for Aurelia? After all, we’re colleagues, and it’s hard to bear the thought.”

Mr. Zeller furrowed his brows even deeper. He spoke slowly amid Kimberly’s gloating smile, David…

has been dismissed.”
