Chapter 213
She hadn’t expected a woman to carry such presence.
But the next second, she reminded herself that she couldn’t back down.
This was still her turf.
“You… you’re accusing me of slander? Do you have any proof?”
The receptionist stood her ground. “If you don’t have proof, then keep your mouth shut!”
Her tone grew more forceful with every word, likely feeling that she was completely justified.
Their argument at the front desk began drawing attention from nearby onlookers.
David, director of the supply department, happened to walk out with his assistant just in time to catch the commotion at the front
desk.
The moment he saw Aurora, his face turned as dark as thunder.
“What is she doing here? Get her out of here!”
Every time David laid eyes on her, he couldn’t help but think of that incident. It left a bitter taste in his mouth.
After all that was said, how could she still have the nerve to show up?
Was everyone this shameless nowadays?
Even if they were to find new partners in the future, he would never work with Walton Corporation again.

After stepping out of the building, Aurora stood at the entrance, feeling oddly lost.
How had things come to this?
Everything had been going so smoothly before–she couldn’t even pinpoint when it all started to fall apart.
All those partner companies, for no apparent reason, had suddenly become hostile.
This kind of situation was truly beyond anything she’d anticipated.
Defeated and dejected, Aurora returned to the company.
But while some were distressed, others were delighted.
The private investigator had reported everything to Tessa in full detail, especially Aurora’s expression afterward.
Tessa grew excited and immediately asked, “Did you get any photos? Let me see!”
