Being insulted, Nora was depressed all day long. She didn't want to bring her bad mood to work, but she was a mortal and couldn't do it at all.
Every day, Ryan walked past her, humming incessantly. This action meant a declaration of war between them. If she won, and if she went against him, she would end up like ending.
Nora tried her best to endure the grievance and dissatisfaction. As long as Murphy didn't fire her, anyone who made difficulties for her would be in vain. She gritted her teeth and would definitely make it through for the sake of Hugh.
In the office, when Murphy saw that Nora seemed to be a little different than before, she was always restless and not as serious as before. She still didn't answer the questions correctly, but Nora didn't tell him anything, so he couldn't ask anything more.
Laquisha, that bitch, hooked up with Ryan and spread rumors about Nora. She said that Nora had a relationship with a rich guy. It was pure slander. She did this to force Nora to leave the company.
It was definitely a fake news. If there was really such a rich guy, why did she have to work so hard and suffer from his bullying here?
In the afternoon, when she felt a headache and weak all over, she asked for a leave from Murphy. After making everything clear, she left the office and walked to the dressing room.
Her phone rang. It was a call from Grace. She asked her to go shopping with her tomorrow Sunday. She had been busy with her work recently and hadn't eaten anything for a long time.
"Okay, okay. I'll be off duty soon. I'll tell you when I get home," said Nora.
She could feel that Nora was a little unhappy, so she asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you hiding something from me?"
She was the only one in the big changing room, because it was not time to get off work. How could there be anyone else? When she heard the repeated questions of Hugh, she could no longer control her emotions. After so many grievances, she suddenly lost control, and tears fell involuntarily.
Said Nora, sobbing.
How she refused Ryan, how she was embarrassed by him, and how Laquisha beat her. She told all the things to Grace.
After complaining her grievance, she felt a little better, but Grace had a bad temper. She couldn't stand that her best friend had suffered so much grievances in the company. She had to seek justice for her.
After work, in the downstairs of the company, Nora met Grace. What are you doing here? If you don't go to work, Grace said, "I'm here to see you. Can you show me around about your company?" She knew the purpose of her. She couldn't let her walk in the company, or things would be in a mess.
Nora pulled her tightly and said, "I'll take you to a good place. The coffee there tastes good."
Ryan, who was not far away from them, saw all this. He followed them into the cafe and sat on the back of them.
The music in the cafe made people feel very comfortable.
All her troubles could be purified as long as she sat here. She ordered two cups of coffee, one with sugar and the other without sugar.
Most of the people sitting here were couples. Drinking coffee required a romantic atmosphere. Back then, she had often gone to a cafe next to the school with Murphy.
