"I, I just wanted to make a cup of tea for you. I saw you were waiting for Rachael, so I wanted to make a cup of tea for you. I didn't expect that it would be spilled on you. I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Yanis trembled, and tears streamed down her face.
"Is this your first day at work? You don't know what Mr. Charles likes? Since you are such a smarty, you can be smart elsewhere! You are fired!" Everly scolded Yanis coldly.
"Ms. Everly, please don't. I, I'm just an intern. If I'm fired, I, I..."
Everly snorted, "This is your own business. Pack your things and get out of here!"
Yanis went teary. She cried so hard that she couldn't stop. However, no one spoke up for her. Kieran stood there with a cold face. Everly scolded Yanis. I knew what Everly meant. She was using this opportunity to tell everyone that if one got close to me again, he would end up like Yanis. Everyone looked at Yanis with disdain and mockery. They showed no sympathy at all.
If Yanis hadn't wanted to be close to me, with her family background and intelligence, she would have been able to stay here until the end of her internship. She was even able to continue working here after graduation. But because of me, Yanis became a thorn in everyone's side.
"Ms. Everly, please, I..." Yanis' face was full of tears as she pleaded. She looked like a frightened rabbit.
"Please leave immediately. Don't disturb our work!" Everly said coldly.
Yanis didn't dare to say more. She lowered her head and walked to her desk. She trembled and shed tears silently while packing her things.
"She deserved that!"
"Yes, she deserved that. She should know this when she got close to Rachael!"
"She got close to the wrong person. Look, Mr. Charles didn't deliver breakfast to Rachael today, nor did he send someone to pick her up. What does this mean? Mr. Charles didn't like Rachael anymore!" Someone laughed.
"That's right. And Yanis was so stupid to get close to Rachael. She really deserved it!" The people present didn't have the slightest bit of sympathy. They all mercilessly mocked Yanis.
I slowly raised my head and walked out from the back. I smiled, "Kieran, why are you here? Why didn't you tell me that you would come!" As I said, I walked to Kieran's side and gave him a big smile.
Seeing me, Everly's expression became even colder. She stared at me with her beautiful and sharp eyes, but she did not speak. Others were secretly looking at me, wanting to see what harsh words Kieran would say to me as he was tired of me.
I smiled in the heart because Kieran would not embarrass me at this moment. And they would never know the truth. Life was so complicated and wondrous. What your see with your own eyes might not be true.
"Ah, what's going on?" I pretended to be surprised as I looked at the water stains on Kieran, "How did the water get spilled on you? Did you get burnt?"
I hurriedly took a tissue to wipe the stains off Kieran. My face was filled with nervousness and worry. Kieran grabbed my hand and said, "I'm fine!"
"Yanis spilled the water on Mr. Charles!" Everly raised her voice, wanting to see me feel embarrassed.
"Rachael, I, I didn't mean to!" Yanis raised her head and whispered. Her eyes were red and swollen. My heart was moved at that moment. Yanis reminded me of the despair I was in when I was looking for a job after graduation. Of course, I knew Yanis would never fall into my despair. However, she must be sad now.
After all, she must have worked very hard to get the internship of Global Group.
"I, I saw Mr. Charles waiting for you, so I wanted to make him a cup of tea. I, I didn't mean to!" Yanis tried to explain to me, and her tears fell silently.
