Chapter 243 The Self-Righteous Woman
Elizabeth instantly calmed down, even not looking at the woman, just burying her head in her work.
The woman gave an awkward laugh and then, with a superior tone, asked Elizabeth, "Do you know who I am?"
Elizabeth pinched her nose, "Step back!"
"You've got a deep mind, really calm. I bet you've been through a lot of this, huh? You're really a lowly bitch." The woman taunted Elizabeth, then looked at her with a composed expression.
Her expression and tone made it clear she saw Elizabeth as a plaything without any autonomy, just waiting to see how Elizabeth would embarrass herself.
It was as if no matter what Elizabeth did, she would always be a clown in her eyes.
Kieran felt nervous for Elizabeth.
He secretly texted his colleague Austin Baker: [Austin, who is this woman? She doesn't seem like a good person.]
Austin: [No idea! Where did she come from, acting so arrogant!]
Kieran: [Look at her composed expression and her attire; she must have a significant background, probably more than Harper.]
Austin: [I think so too. Why is Elizabeth so unlucky?]
Kieran: [Yeah.]
Kieran: [Let's play it by ear. If things get really bad, we can all quit together and find another company with Elizabeth.]
Austin: [Sounds good to me!]
While Austin and Kieran were secretly texting each other, several female colleagues were wide-eyed, watching the drama unfold. It was clear that the woman causing trouble for Elizabeth had a significant background.
Elizabeth was finally going to get a lesson.
She had been in the spotlight at the company for the past three weeks, and now someone was finally here to put her in her place!
Elizabeth didn't care.
She just lightly pinched her brow and said calmly, "The smell is too strong." With that, she picked up the desk phone, "Hello, front desk? There's a stinky woman at my desk, please escort her out."
The front desk said, "Ms. Spencer, I don't dare."
Elizabeth asked, "Why not?"
With that, she instinctively looked at the woman in front of her, who raised an eyebrow and smiled calmly.
Elizabeth was silent.
Just as she was about to ask who this woman was, she saw Joseph and Anna rushing over. From a distance, they bowed to the woman, especially Anna, who respectfully said, "Ms. Lavien, why did you come suddenly? If you had informed me, I would have picked you up at the airport."
With that, Anna immediately said to Elizabeth, "Elizabeth, this is Molly Lavien, one of the company's shareholders, Mr. Lavien's aunt. Ms. Lavien, what brings you here today?"
Molly smiled, her eyes still on Elizabeth, "I heard this Elizabeth is quite fierce and lowly."
Anna and Elizabeth were silent.
Molly was also part of the elite world of Pariz. If Elizabeth guessed correctly, she should be connected to Alexander's friend, Gideon.
Elizabeth was sure she had never met Molly, but it was clear Molly was here for her today.
Was Molly here because of Robert? Or to stand up for Harper?
Elizabeth guessed it was probably for Robert.
After all, Molly had nothing to do with Harper.
At this point, Elizabeth spoke up, her tone still calm, "Ms. Lavien, I'm just a poor employee. If you think I'm not suitable to work here, I'll resign immediately."
"No." Molly shook her head with a smile, "You're definitely not just a poor employee, Miss Spencer."
"What do you mean?" Elizabeth frowned.
Molly leaned into Elizabeth's ear and whispered, "You bitch, you're bold to work at the Lavien family's company with a fake resume. Are you looking to go to jail again?"
Elizabeth's face turned pale.
Molly continued, "Six years ago, everyone in the elite circles of Sunwillow City knew about your dirty deeds. The only reason people here don't know you're that woman from six years ago is because the video source was removed in time, and your name and photos were thoroughly blocked. Plus, Alexander issued a strict order not to spread the matter, so no one in this office recognizes you as that lowly bitch. But that doesn't mean you can fool me!"
Elizabeth held onto her desk, almost unable to stand.
She bit her lip, asking, "What do you want?"
"Do you know my sister?" Molly continued to whisper in Elizabeth's ear.
"No!"
"You should know Laura!"
Elizabeth was stunned for a moment.
She really didn't remember who Laura was but felt the name was familiar.
After thinking for a moment, she suddenly remembered Laura was the famous actress she met a month ago at a gathering with Alexander and his friends, the one who asked Elizabeth to fetch her shoes.
Seeing Elizabeth's expression, Molly knew Elizabeth had remembered who Laura was.
Molly sneered, "Laura was with my sister's husband, Dominic, that day. Dominic had important business to attend to, but you, bitch, ruined it. You not only ruined Dominic's business but also destroyed Laura's career. Now you're seducing Robert. Isn't it enough that you've already offended Alexander? Are you trying to openly challenge the whole Lavien family? Aren't you afraid my brother and Alexander will send you abroad to be a slave until you die? And your daughter..."
"What do you want!" Elizabeth immediately asked, agitated at the mention of Alice.
She wasn't afraid of dying or being dirty and rotten.
But Alice was different.
Elizabeth knew that Alexander had been good to her and even better to Alice, acting like a good father. But she also knew Alexander's relationship with Gideon was closer than family, and Gideon's status was no less than Alexander's.
Elizabeth never dared to think that she and Alice could hold a higher place in Alexander's heart than Gideon.
She looked at Molly with a pale face and panicked eyes.
Molly sneered with extreme contempt, "First, obediently work here. When I'm ready, I'll teach you a lesson! Remember, don't act like you're all that. Your true intentions are exposed, you know? You bitch!"
Elizabeth held back her tears, letting Molly insult her.
"Answer me!" Molly shouted.
"Yes, I understand." Elizabeth obediently replied. Just then, Molly's phone rang.
Molly picked it up and answered, "Hello, Clara?"
