Chapter 52
They were in the company building, and many
employees were pa*sing by the conference room.
Hence, Derek helped Alessandra up first.
“I–I’m fine.”

Alessandra could not care less about her pain. She
hastily wiped the table and took out a cloth to wipe the
laptop and phone.
“Stop! I’ll do it!” Derek quickly shoved her away, making
her stagger a few steps backward.
“I’m so sorry, Mr. Schwartz. I–I didn’t do it on purpose,”
Alessandra apologized profusely.
For someone from a less well–to–do family, ruining
someone’s valuables would only make their situation
worse.
She was hoping she did not have to pay for the losses,
but Derek examined his devices and said grimly,
“Ma’am, my laptop’s motherboard is fried, and my
phone isn’t lighting up. You’ve got to compensate me.”
“I–I…” Alessandra paled, unable to form a complete
sentence. All she could do was bow and apologize.
She only wanted to earn some money to help lessen
Emmanuel’s burden and give Mackenzie some jewelry.
To her horror, she had to compensate a huge sum
when she had not even gotten her salary.
This is just terrible! I’m sure Emmanuel won’t let me
work anymore if he finds out about this.
“It’s already happened. There’s no use apologizing
2/8
now.” Derek helped her up and added coldly, “I’m going
to send these for repairs now. I’ll let you know how
much you’ll need to pay when I find that out. Please
give me your phone number.”
Alessandra was on the verge of crying, but she still
nodded and gave him her phone number.
At the same time, Beatrix was standing outside the
gla*s door. When she saw how pitiful Alessandra
looked, she wanted to help the latter out.
To Beatrix’s surprise, Alessandra agreed to
compensate him. Hence, the former could say nothing.
After all, it was only right to compensate someone
after breaking their things.
After receiving her number, Derek could not help but
scold her a little before leaving to get his devices
repaired.
There were many important data in them which he
had put a lot of effort and time into. He was planning
to get Alessandra to compensate him for the
intangible losses as well.
Alessandra felt horrible when Derek left. Even so, she
still cleaned up the conference room.
