They all exchanged nervous glances, feeling frightened and scared.
Seeing Angela's determination, Damian exclaimed, "I'm going to jump off! You made me do this!"
He was over 50 and seemed well-maintained, but his face was wrinkled and unappealing when he cried.
"If you don't want to live, then just go die!" Angela sneered. Her voice was so chilling that it sent a shiver down everyone's spine.
Everyone was shocked, especially Damian. He was skilled at reading people. He usually had a trustworthy appearance that helped him disguise his intentions. Yet, today, the tables had turned entirely.
"Are you asking me to die?" Damian asked, his shock evident as he gazed into Angela's unwavering eyes.
"Don't you want to die? Death is your choice. So why waste our time? Are you trying to manipulate others into ignoring your mistakes and blaming the female employee instead? If so, you're mistaken." Angela approached Damian slowly with a smirk.
In an instant, his expression shifted dramatically. He gazed at her in stunned disbelief, a mix of anxiety and anger swirling within him. Yet, he couldn't find the words to respond.
"Alright then. I'm going to jump down now and show everyone how vicious you are."
Damian cautiously released one hand from the railing, causing half of his weighty frame to sway in the wind. Gasps erupted from the crowd as the tension in the air became palpable.
Despite his bold attempt, he lacked the courage to fully let go. He quickly gripped the railing tighter with the other hand, and his knuckles went pale from fear of falling.
"You're still scared." Angela scoffed, walked forward, and grabbed Damian's hand, which was holding the railing.
He was so taken aback that he shouted, "What are you doing? You're the CEO of this company—are you really attempting to kill me?"
Angela remained silent as she seized his arm with one hand and flung it forcefully. Damian's face went pale, but he suddenly felt the world turn upside down. With Angela assisting him, he swiftly flipped over, and his hefty body crashed into the ground.
The chaos finally ended.
