Chapter 475
“Frank isn’t in any trouble,” said Alan.
“Really?” asked Paulina.
“Really.”
“That’s strange.” Paulina was puzzled. “Frank just called me, and his tone was off. Where are you?”
“The Smith Group.”
“But weren’t you on a business trip? How come you’re back early?”
Paulina’s tone suddenly changed. “Did you go and tell Frank that the last incident was something I did intentionally?”
Alan was sweating on her behalf and didn’t know what to say anymore.
He had tried his best.
Paulina wanted to say something more, but the call was already disconnected.
When she arrived at the CEO’s office and knocked on the door, she saw Alan kneeling on the floor.
Her heart sank instantly.
Frank was leaning against the desk, casting a disappointed glance at her but not saying anything to embarrass her. Instead, he said coldly, “SZ Technology’s Northern Eulast branch is missing a deputy manager. After you hand over your current work, go there as soon as possible to start your new position.”
Paulina’s legs went weak.
Going to the Northern Eulast branch meant she would no longer be Frank’s confidante.
She was momentarily stunned, her eyes reddening behind her black–framed glasses.” Are you kicking me out? Why?”
Was it just because she targeted that woman once?
Just because of a few not particularly harsh words she said at noon?

Paulina, who usually cared a lot about face, had heard only flattery from people over the years. She had never been in such a situation before!
She felt a chill all over her body, her lips bleeding from biting them so hard. Suddenly, she felt exhausted and no longer wanted to play her usual calm subordinate role in front of Frank. She asked, a bit agitated, “What did I do?”
Alan was alarmed!
Afraid that she had completely angered Frank, he grabbed her.
But Paulina wasn’t any weaker, and she shook off his hand, looking at Frank. “Frank, I’ve been by your side for so many years. Even if I haven’t done anything significant, haven’t I at least worked hard? Just because I said a few things, you’re going to erase everything?”
Tears welled up.
Unfortunately, Frank was not a sentimental person. His lips curved into a sneer. “If it really was erasing everything, would you still be here talking to me now?”
Alan could read the murderous intent in Frank’s expression!
Before he could react, Paulina had already broken down and spoken up. “So, it really is just because of what I said to Ms. Wilson?”
“Isn’t that enough?”
Frank laughed, but it was a chilling laugh that struck fear deep in the heart.
Paulina suddenly understood Frank’s meaning!
She regretted it immediately.
She didn’t dare to look at Frank’s cold, shivering gaze. Struggling to control her trembling fingers, she said earnestly, “I’ll do as you say, and go to the Northern Eulast branch.”
She had been too conceited!
