Chapter 13: Shirley Had Walked Off the Job
Jordan walked at the double up to Bryan and stood in front of him as held out his hand to ward her off,
“Dr...”
Before he could uttered her name, Shirley had opened her mouth and spoken first, “My reputation has
been tarnished as I’ve been framed for committing harm against someone and cast aspersions on, so I
would need you to personally retrieve the surveillance footage in your office to clear my name, Mr.
Moore. In addition, I would need to reconsider your offer as your future wife seems to not approve of
me. She has even engaged in unreasonable acts that have caused a serious blow to me in order to
drive me away from your side.”
Bryan cast a menacing cold look towards Sabrina at once upon hearing Shirley’s complaint.
The surveillance footages in his office would be uploaded into and saved in his personal computer
instead of being transferred to the security room; hence she seemed to have realized that she could
not get her hands on the video at all without his authorization seeing that she had come to him in the
first place.
But then again…
Who was the one whom had hacked into his computer and intercepted the video that was being played
in the conference room just now?
Someone had pushed Sabrina to his front at this moment and reported in a tone that was filled with
righteous indignation, “This woman has silted Miss Thomas’s hand with a knife, Mr. Moore. Look at her,
the wound on her hand is still bleeding.”
“Bryan.” Sabrina called out to him as she put on an aggrieved look with tears welling up in her eyes.
Bryan cast an indifferent glance at the cut on her hand, and he could discern that although it was quite
a long and narrow silt that had caused both her hands to be smeared with blood, she had cleverly
avoided her main arteries as she sliced herself.
Jordan’s brows were deeply furrowed in apprehension as he stepped aside and turned his head to get
a glimpse of Bryan’s expression.
What should be done now?
He was afraid to say that Miss Thomas’s acting was about to be busted.
“I’m fine, Bryan. The reason that I have dropped by today is to discuss about Dr. Thomas with you as I
have managed to contact her assistant, so it won’t be too hard to invite her back to the country. I have
initially planned to wait in your office until your meeting has ended, but I’ve never thought that things
would turn out this way. I’m really sorry.”
Sabrina kept darting her glances at Shirley from time to time in a suggestive manner when she was
trying hard to play innocent, and with that she immediately continued with an perturbed look, “I’m really
fine, I can go to the hospital by myself. I’m just worry about your body and condition, Bryan, you have
not been sleeping well these past few days…”
“Do you know who she is?” A cold and abrupt sentence suddenly cut Sabrina off as Bryan raised his
hand and pointed at the woman whom was standing beside Jordan.
Sabrina’s body trembled all over as she turned and stared at Shirley with a perplexed look on her face.
“Tell her.” Bryan ordered with a grim and forbidding countenance as he withdrew his hand.
Jordan drew a deep breath and took one step forward as he explained, “You don’t have to concern
yourself with the matter regarding Dr. Thomas anymore as the Moore family has engaged her, Miss
Thomas. Furthermore, Mr. Moore wishes for you to not make a stink at the Moore Group ever again
and make a fool of yourself as your behavior has not only affected the collaboration between Mr. Moore
and Dr. Thomas, but you have also brought about a detrimental impact to the company’s operational
efficiency. I will convert the amount of time that has been lost due to your unreasonable conduct into
money and send the invoice to the Thomas family.”
“Boom!” Sabrina felt like she had been struck with thunder as her head had exploded at that moment
and started to buzz uncontrollably.
Her mind went black in an instant as she stared bleakly at Shirley in incredulity.
She had dropped in with the intention to talk to Bryan about the 181 million yuan that she was being
asked for, and she had originally planned to invite Dr. Thomas back to the country in her name by using
his money, but little did she know that she was too late…
“Hey, look at your phones.”
“What’s this?”
“It’s the surveillance footage from Mr. Moore’s office.”
Shirley’s gaze swept across her surroundings after hearing the commotion, and she could notice that a
female employee whom was standing just beside her was watching a video on her phone with a large
display screen.
The video was displaying the scene whereby Sabrina had slashed the back of her hand by herself with
the fruit knife. All the employees on the spot were stunned by the revelation, and they immediately
gave out shocking exclamations and started to murmur against her, “Oh gosh! It turns out that Miss
Thomas has silted her own hand instead.”
“Man, her acting just now is indeed excellent.”
“What a drama queen! Even the Oscars should award her an Oscar statuette for her acting just
now…”
