Chapter 201 Is There Still a Way to Remedy This?
At this moment, Elizabeth also approached Harper.
Elizabeth looked at Harper with a dark expression, asking coldly, "Harper, what do you want!"
Harper had forgotten why her colleagues were laughing, just sneering, "Elizabeth! Do you think I'll let you off just because you avoided me for a week? Do you know why I got hurt? It's all because of you! You pushed a chair behind me, deliberately making me sit on it, causing me to get injured and stay in the hospital for two days. Your actions could land you in jail!"
Elizabeth said, "Then go ahead and sue me!"
Harper shouted, "Do you think I won't dare?"
Just as she finished speaking, she suddenly changed to a delicate tone, saying, "Robert, you're here just in time! You weren't in Sunwillow City last week, so you don't know what happened! Elizabeth, this murderer, almost killed me! She pushed a chair behind me, deliberately making me sit on it, and ruining my buttocks."
Robert looked at Harper with great disdain, sneering.
"Robert, you're still laughing!" Harper pretended to be coy and then said, "Do you know, Elizabeth is a very despicable woman! She used dirty tricks to seduce Owen. I heard from Elodie that she uses all sorts of vile methods. You're being bewitched by Elizabeth, Robert! She is a very ugly woman!"
Robert couldn't hold back anymore, saying, "I don't know if Elizabeth is ugly, but you are very ugly right now! You're the ugliest woman in the world! How can the company have someone as disgraceful as you! Mr. Jones brought you in, right? He is out of town these days to take care of his grandfather, so I won't notify him. I'll just fire you right now. You! Harper, you ugly woman, get out of here right now!"
Harper was silent, standing in the conference room for a while, then suddenly bursting into tears, crying, "Robert!"
"Don't call my name! Get out!" Robert shouted, almost driven mad by Harper.
Harper didn't even dare to cry anymore.
Outside the conference room, a kind person reminded her, "Miss Williams, you should take a look at your face first."
Harper didn't bother to plead with Robert or harm Elizabeth anymore, just taking out her phone to check her reflection, stunned, then suddenly screaming, "Oh my God."
The image on the phone was, of course, Harper.
Earlier, when she saw Elizabeth in Robert's car, she was so angry that she cried, crying all the way up the elevator, ruining her makeup.
Harper always wore heavy makeup, but she didn't have much money to buy high-end, long-lasting cosmetics. She used cheap, highly pigmented makeup, so when she cried, her eyeshadow, eyeliner, and foundation mixed together, making her look like a clown.
She was busy texting Elodie in the elevator and forgot to check her makeup before rushing to the conference room to insult Elizabeth over the intercom.
Harper intended to crush Elizabeth in front of the whole company, but instead, she got herself kicked out by Robert, still having an ugly face.
"I don't want to live anymore!" Harper cried as she ran out.
Behind her, Robert made a call to the security department, "Keep an eye on that ugly Harper. If she tries to harm herself, don't let her do it in the company!"
The men of the Lavien family always treated women they didn't like with the utmost coldness and disdain.
In Robert's eyes, he never saw Harper as a woman.
No, he never saw her as a person.
"Everyone, disperse!" Robert looked at the employees present, saying coldly.
"Yes, Mr. Lavien!" many people responded in unison, then left.
"Elizabeth." Robert called out. Just as he was about to ask Elizabeth to stay, his phone rang. He picked it up, answering, "Uncle Dominic, what's up?"
The uncle Robert referred to was Samuel's cousin, Dominic.
No one knew what Dominic said on the other end, but Robert replied, "Okay, got it. I'll come over right away."
After hanging up, he wanted to call Elizabeth again but saw that she was no longer in the conference room. Robert thought about going to the design department to find Elizabeth, but since Dominic's matter was urgent, he immediately left the company.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth had returned to the design department.
"I'm sorry, you really shouldn't have tricked me into coming back. It's normal for the company not to want me to work here. But why did you lie to me?" Elizabeth asked Anna unhappily.
Anna looked troubled, saying, "Elizabeth, I know you're upset, but you happened to offend Harper. Although she was kicked out by Mr. Lavien today, Harper has backing. Her backing is no weaker than Mr. Lavien's. As ordinary people, we don't have the power to go against her. I can only follow her instructions."
Elizabeth said, "Forget it." She then looked at Anna, asking, "I want to know, does the company still want me?"
Anna was silent.
Elizabeth was brought in by Robert; would the company dare not want her?
She immediately said, "Yes, of course!"
As soon as Anna finished speaking, Linda whispered in her ear, "Ms. Morgan, think carefully. Mr. Lavien's interest in women usually doesn't last more than a day. The reason he drove Elizabeth here is that he got a call and left before he could get her last time. If he gets what he wants now, do you think Mr. Lavien will keep her in the company? Even Harper was immediately fired by Mr. Lavien, let alone a woman like Elizabeth? I think you better not make the decision to keep Elizabeth."
Anna thought about it, realizing Linda was right.
The HR department hadn't said anything about rehiring Elizabeth.
At this moment, Anna looked at Elizabeth with embarrassment.
"It's okay!" Elizabeth smiled calmly, then glanced at Linda. Linda looked at Elizabeth with a provocative expression, as if to say: What can you do?
"If you don't want to keep me, then I'll leave," Elizabeth said, then turning and walking away. She had just taken three steps out of the office when Linda received an external call. After listening to a few words, Linda suddenly cried, asking, "What should I do? Is there any way to fix this?"
