Chapter 27 A Rose with Thorns
Stella pursed her lips, not intending to argue with her.
Stella was about to walk around Ava, but Ava moved in front of her and blocked her.
"Don't think that I don't know what you're doing behind the scenes!" Ava said domineeringly, "Stella Taylor, you know very well how you got the order!"
Stella turned to stare at her with big bright eyes that rippled with anger.
She usually wore a gentle smile and treated people around her kindly. She rarely showed such a cold and serious expression.
But at this moment, Stella seemed to be a different person. Ava could not help but take two steps back.
"How did I get it?" She paused at every word, "I got it by my own ability! I stayed up all night for a week and revised the sales plan countless times. Mr. Davis was very satisfied, so he signed and stamped it! You haven't got it for three months, because you are incompetent! Instead of looking for reasons on yourself, do you want to blame others for working harder than you?"
"Oh, you worked hard?" Ava stared at her even harder, "You worked hard by getting on the man's bed! Do you think that you can do whatever you want if the director is on your side?"
"Ava Brown, watch your words! What does this have to do with the director? I hadn't even spoken much to the director before I got this order!"
"Who knows? Hmph, you had not spoken in the office, but who knows how many times you had had 'in-depth communication' in private!"
"You..."
Stella was so angry that her face was flushed. The quarrel between them attracted many people to watch.
A peacemaker wanted to separate the two of them, but Ava would not budge at all, and Stella was unwilling to suffer this kind of humiliation for nothing and insisted on settling this in front of the director.
Daniel Clark hurried over when things came to a stalemate.
"This is the office, what are you two doing?!" Daniel snapped, "If you want to quarrel, go to the street. Since you are in the office, you should work hard!"
Ava gave him an angry look, turned and left.
Stella stood where she was. Her lips were tightly pressed, and her cheeks were slightly flushed. Daniel dismissed the onlookers and pulled Stella aside.
"Don't be angry with Ava," His voice softened, "She has such a bad temper and an arrogant personality. She can't compare to you this time, and she can't get over it."
"Even so, she can't insult others as she likes!"
"Yes, yes, it's all her fault!" Daniel narrowed his eyes, with a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth, "Stella, I apologize to you for her."
He raised his hand and patted her shoulder while saying that. Stella came back to her senses and quickly dodged.
