Three years of loving him, three days to erase myself from his world novel Chapter 33

Nora was already blaming herself.

Now, hearing everyone's complaints and that her boss was also implicated, she felt even worse, her eyes turning red as she bit her pale lips hard.

"I... I really checked carefully before sending... I really did... I don't know what happened..."

Seraphina flipped her long hair and sneered.

"Are we supposed to believe whatever you say? If you really checked, could you still send it wrong?"

"Or maybe, you did it on purpose! Or, someone behind the scenes instructed you to send it like this!"

Saying this, she glanced at Clara.

On purpose, instructed—these heavy words pressed down.

The gazes of the people around turned sharp.

Nora's face instantly went pale.

Clara's heart also clenched. Nora was someone she had trained herself. She knew her personality best; she wasn't the careless type.

She reached out and patted the girl's shoulder, "Don't cry."

Then, she coldly met Seraphina's gaze and said, "It seems Ms. Shaw is truly free. Instead of drawing and rushing the project's designs, you're here trying to make your presence felt."

Seraphina choked, "You!"

"What about me?"

Clara narrowed her eyes sharply.

She continued, "In the company, in this project, I am your superior! What should you call me?"

"I'm telling you, Seraphina, there's less than a week left before the deadline. If you don't submit the designs on time, affecting our team's subsequent work, you are the one holding our team back!"

"Saying you're holding us back is putting it lightly. More seriously, you are affecting the company's profitability!"

"When the time comes, according to the contract, you will have to pay the company three times the penalty for breach of contract!"

Every word was heavy and sharp.

The colleagues also turned to look at Seraphina, frowning in dissatisfaction.

Actually, if anyone was holding them back, she was the one affecting their work.

If she hadn't parachuted in halfway, the Valentine's Day project would have almost been finalized.

Seraphina felt like she was on pins and needles.

Her previously triumphant face was now alternating between green and white, extremely embarrassed...

What was even more embarrassing was.

This time, she was determined to kick Clara out of the group!

...

Clara brought Nora back to the office, her small face somewhat anxious, her hand thrust into the pocket of her down jacket, gripping her phone tightly... impulsively wanting to do something.

Teaching Seraphina a lesson was one thing, but coming back to this issue, she was still worried.

How could she not be?

Such a huge mistake.

Nora shrank behind her and lowered her head.

"Thank you, boss, but today's incident is indeed my mistake. When Jarrett Global asks about it, I'll take the blame..."

Clara paused and turned to look at her.

"Don't worry about the proposal for now. I'll take a trip to Jarrett Global in a bit."

"Boss..."

Clara pursed her lips and reached out to rub her head.

In a daze, looking at the little assistant's reddened eyes, she couldn't help but think of herself and Julian Lowell back in the day.
