Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 73

Since Joann had done it. She must let Joann remember that neither she nor her assistant was pushovers.
Joann frowned and looked displeased. The smile on her face disappeared.
"Mrs. Harrison, I'm not a waitress here."
"My assistant is not your nanny, either."
Martha smiled faintly, looking at Joann with a clear warning.
She said in a colder voice, "Ms. Lowe, you aren't willing to get me coffee. Does that mean I can slap you in the face to teach you a lesson?"
When Joann heard this, her pretty face suddenly turned pale.
Her hands hanging at her sides had been clenched tightly when she turned to look at Hollie for help.
But Hollie kept a decent smile on her face, with no intention to stand out for her.
Joann felt a sense of powerlessness.
Martha turned a blind eye to the look on Joann's face. She looked down indifferently, reading the menu.
When the three thought that things were over, Martha suddenly said, "Jane, slap her back."
Jane was stunned and looked at her.
Slap Joann back in this situation?
Jane was a little nervous. Was it really okay?
Joann heard it and was even angrier.
'Damn Martha, how could she humiliate me in this way!'
'Did she have to make such a fuss because of an assistant?'
Her eyes were wide with anger, staring ferociously at Jane.
Jane shuddered when she saw Joann's horrifying look.
"Ms. Doyle, it's all in the past. Just forget it."
Martha's eyes turned colder as she looked at the menu.
"Slap her back." Her tone was unchanged, but somehow, it was intimidating.
Jane had been working for Martha for many years, and she knew Martha's personality.
She knew that if she did not fight back now, Martha would no longer need her as she was too weak.
Thinking of it, Jane bit her lower lip, stood up in fear, ready to slap back.
Martha saw the resentment in Joann's eyes out of the corner of her eyes. She did not care and ignored it.
Hollie, who had been silent, kept a smile and didn't intend to do anything.
Joann, on the other hand, was not as calm as Hollie.
She stared straight at Jane. She did not believe an assistant would dare to hit her!
Jane was frightened by her fierce eyes, and her hand trembled slightly.
But if she did not fight back, she may be fired by Martha, which was even more unacceptable for her.
Finally, Jane clenched her left hand and her teeth, raised her right hand and slapped Joann in the face.
The crisp sound made the whole dining room fall into a tense air.
Meanwhile, Rhys had just arrived at the restaurant when he heard the sound of the slap.
He curled his lips into a wicked smile.
It seemed that he arrived late and missed a good show.
Joann felt the burning pain on her face and was stunned for a moment.
She did not expect this assistant dared to slap her in public!
She looked at Jane with an even more appalling look in her eyes. She couldn't wait to fight back and avenge herself.
When Jane saw Joann like this, she timidly turned her head and pretended not to see it. Although she seemed calm, she thought to herself excitedly, 'I slapped Joann really hard. My hand still hurts.'
However, when she thought of the injustice she had suffered because of Joann, the pain in her hand transformed into the pleasure of getting her revenge on Joann.
