Chapter 44 Not my fault

Seeing the dirty footprints on the clean floor, Amy took a deep breath and chose to ignore Zoe. And she went back and cleaned the dirty floor again.

"Well done! You are really good at playing nice. But I believe that some day, you will expose your true face. I warn you. Don't ever try to seduce Mr. Carter. He has a girlfriend." Zoe saw Amy being silent, so she felt bored and gave up bullying Amy.

After Amy cleaned the floor, almost all colleagues arrived in the office. So Amy went back to her seat and began working.

Since Mrs. Jones was fired, there was no officially nominated director in the Secretary Department yet. Zoe was more experienced so she acted as a director temporarily.

Zoe sorted out the work and knew what work was tricky and hard to finish. She was going to arrange all these difficult work to Amy.

'Humph, she is an excellent graduate, right? Since she is so good, she must be the best employee here. Of course she should take over the work that others can't do.'

"Amy, this is the work for you today. Finish it before you get off work." Zoe was holding a pile of files and put them on Amy's table.

Amy skimmed through all the files, and thought that it was impossible she could finish it today.

"Zoe, I can't finish it before getting off work." Amy said to Zoe honestly.

"If so, just go to the Human Resource Department and tell them that you aren't qualified for the job and you want to resign." Zoe was very arrogant.

However, Amy was not a coward. If someone treated her nicely, she would be friendly in return, but if someone picked on her deliberately, she would just fight back.

"Zoe, you are wrong about this. Even you, an experienced secretary, won't be able to finish all the work within one day, let alone a new comer like me. You are picking on me purposely, so I will not accept these work." Amy pushed all the files away.

"Everyone, listen to her! I am in charge now and I just gave Amy some work. But she not only refused the work, but also spoke ill of me. That's absurd and I won't allow this to happen!" Zoe was shocked that Amy had the courage to refuse her in public.

Zoe was very angry, yet other colleagues in this department was praising Amy secretly.

Zoe always bullied others in the department since she was more experienced, and sometimes even Mrs. Jones had to follow her instructions. But today, Amy dared to contradict her, which cheered everyone up!

"It's not my fault and you went too far. It is very obvious that no one can finish the work in one day, yet you still ordered me to do so. I just told you the truth in advance. To be precise, it takes at least three days to finish the work." Amy said to Zoe.

"Very well, then I will report this to the Human Resource Department. You are so bold and rude as a new comer. Maybe you should be the acting director, not me!" Zoe turned around and left angrily.

It seemed that Zoe was really heading to the Human Resource Department. A nice colleague came to Amy, trying to comfort her.

"Amy, Zoe is a senior employee here, and it is said that she is also a relative of Mr. Carter's girlfriend. I guess in this case, you have to leave now."
