As soon as I moved, I heard Patrick say behind me, "You don't have to go." Then he said to the person in charge, "Go and get a new design company."
"Why?"
I didn't expect Patrick to say that all of a sudden.
Although I didn't know what made him change his mind, I was sure that all of these had something to do with me.
He hated me. So he vented his anger on this project.
Patrick stood up and took out a cigarette box as well as a cigarette from the pocket inside his suit.
He ignited it.
Taking a sip, he said slowly, "For a company that doesn't investigate whether a new employee is keeping the past as a secret before hiring one, I can justifiably suspect the professionalism of this company."
"I didn't hide anything!"
Sure enough, it was me who he was targeting.
"Then the company hired you is even less professional. Unexpectedly, they hired a woman who deliberately hurt others, killed another woman's child, and had been prisoned..."
Before Patrick could finish his words, everyone on the scene sighed.
When the person in charge heard that I was such a person, he immediately said, "Mr. Cowell, I am contacting the staff of the Glorious Seth Design now."
Glorious Seth Design was Seth's company.
"No!" I stepped forward and stood in front of the person in charge.
Although I hated it and I wasn't willing to reconcile, I still said, "I will resign! I will resign! Are you satisfied?"
I knew what Patrick wanted was that I couldn't get away with it.
What he was going to do was to see me sleep on the street.
Now that he saw that I had a job, he must be very disappointed.
I couldn't let Seth be put in a difficult position because of me.
Patrick looked at her and didn't say anything.
I stood there, made a call to Seth, and said quickly, "Mr. Hyde, I will resign now."
After that, I hung up the phone before Seth could ask me anything.
Then, I put my cell phone into my pocket and bowed to Patrick, "Mr. Cowell, I've already resigned from Glorious Seth Design. Now, I have nothing to do with this company as well as this project. Please don't take revenge on others because of your hatred for me."
After that, I turned back and left.
