Don't Annoy My Boss Daddy novel Chapter 38

"Really? Hollie seems so earnest and innocent normally, why would she do such a thing?" 

"People nowadays will do anything in order to succeed. That Hollie, from her appearance, I feel that she is not a good person. She pretends to be earnest, but secretly, she is seducing old men like our boss. What a sl*t."

"You're right, Mr Bullock is in his forties, and he's so ugly. Hollie Hunter is really going all out, seducing a man like him."

I heard every comment my colleagues made. I felt grievous. When had I seduced Rudy Bullock? Did they see that?

People nowadays were really good at making up rumours based on what they see. Rudy was the one who forced himself on me, but to them, it was me who seduced him. How could they tell lies like this?

I wanted to rush out and argue with them and tell them the truth, but I held myself back. Even if I ran out and explained what happened, they wouldn't believe me. Instead, they would look down on me more.

Forget it. As long as I knew I was a good person, I didn't have to explain anything to anyone.

I kept comforting myself in my heart, but my tears still fell uncontrollably. I kept telling myself not to care, but the feeling of being wronged was really uncomfortable.

After they left, I walked out of the bathroom and came to the mirror. Looking at myself with red eyes, I felt even more upset.

I had done my best work since I started at this company, but all I got in return was a reputation as a seductress. It was so unfair.

In the afternoon, I could clearly feel that the way all my colleagues looked at me changed. I tried my best to pretend that I knew nothing and continued to work hard. I believed that as long as I worked hard enough, sooner or later, they would understand what kind of person I was.

In the next few days, no one talked to me. Even when I met with my colleagues, they wouldn't speak to me. Rudy Bullock was also doing his best to get me in trouble so that I would be fired.

I had so much work that I had to work overtime until 10 o'clock at night. I knew that Rudy was giving me a heavy workload on purpose. He wanted me to leave the company.

But I had already made up my mind. No matter how he treated me, I wouldn't leave Grizzlimited voluntarily.

It was another late night at work. I finished up the last of my work and stretched before standing up tiredly. I packed my bag and got ready to leave the office.

But at this moment, my cell phone rang. It was a call from Vaughn. I frowned, and a feeling of annoyance came over me. Without thinking, I hung up the phone.

But Vaughn didn't give up. My cell phone kept ringing. Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore and picked up the phone.

"Vaughn, what's wrong with you? Why are you calling me?"

As soon as I answered the phone, I lost my temper. My voice was cold and emotionless.

"Hollie. I want to have a talk with you. I am now downstairs at your company. I know you've been working late these past few days."

On the other end of the phone, Vaughn's voice was much gentler than usual. If it had been in the past, I would have been happy to hear from him, but right now I did not feel happy at all, because I didn't feel like I love him anymore.

"I have nothing to say to you. I really don't want to see you."

I refused Vaughn without hesitation. It was over between the two of us. There was no need to be entangled.

With that, I hung up the phone, leaving no chance for Vaughn to speak.
