Chapter 338 I Disagree
It’s profitable but busy in the Foreign Trade department. Caroline was discussing heatedly with a woman who looked to be a director. No one paid much attention to their discussion.
But the slap attracted eyes in the office and it fell silent.
Caroline was also stunned by the slap. It took her long to give a reaction and she got angry, “Why you hit me?”
“Why? Look at your work. You have screwed up all work | assigned you.”
The woman who slapped Caroline looked in her late twenties. Pocks covered her face. She was looking at Caroline, snorting, as if she had done nothing wrong. “Quarterly report is not well done and the summary is like a running account. | beat you is to give you another chance, or you now get away from this company.”
Caroline covered her face and said nothing. Her eyes were full of tears, but she tried hard to withdraw them.
Leo stood outside the door and looked coldly at what was on show, with worry inside.
Caroline had changed a lot. If it was before, she can never control herself when insulted like this.
The rest of the department were gloating at Caroline bullied and no one came up to speak for her.
“Who is she?”
Leo, with a cool look on his face, pointed to the woman.
“Her name is Karina, a director of the Foreign Trade Department.”
“She's a follower of Stefan.” Rachel Ward said coldly. “She thought she has Stefan as her support, so she often rips her underlings off.”
After a pause, she said in a low voice, “Besides, she holds some emotional enmity towards Caroline. She used to be Caroline's senior, but her boyfriend at that time broke up with her because he fell in love with Caroline. So she hated Caroline since then.”
Leo understood why Karinawas so nasty about Caroline. But he frowned tightly, “You don’t punish her for such things?”
“I'm sorry, Mr. Cohen.” Rachel Ward said apologetically. “She did that with great cautions, and she escaped from our investigation every time. Besides, no one offered to finger her for that.”
Leo said nothing with a cold look. It was clear that she applied her power to force the workers not to tell the truth.copy right hot novel pub
“I am the leader of foreign trade department now, and I can punish her as I like, right?” Suddenly he said again.
Rachel Ward nodded subconsciously but immediately realized what Leo wanted to do. “Don’t be impulsive, Mr. Cohen. If you fire someone for no reason, it’s not good for you.”
Leo smiled faintly, “I certainly don’t fire someone with no reason.”
Caroline followed Karina’s command and took the documents back to modify.
“Do all your work over again and you’re not leaving until you finish it today! President Henderson has come back today. You will be dismissed if the meeting tomorrow is postponed because of you.”
Karina mercilessly said so and then leisurely took seated in front of the computer, playing poker.
“Karina, good of you. She is just new here and she deserves to be treated so. Now she will be mindful in the future.”
“Yes. Do you have any plan after work? How about having a meal with us? Our treat!”
“And you can tell us what she has done as a bitch in college.”
As Caroline returned to her position, many women flooded to round Karina up and their voice was audible to Caroline.
Karina enjoyed such kind of flattery. Glancing at Caroline who was immersed in the document, she said, “Ok, I’ll tell you how she lured men in college at the table.”
Caroline sat in her position, trying to overlook the gossip. But her eyes turned red as they rambled on.
Just then a hand patted her shoulder.
The gentle pat comforted her and the injustice in her heart suddenly disappeared.
She looked up, and then the tears flowed down along her cheek as she saw Leo.
“Leo!”
She cried out Leo’s name, then realized that she was crying in an ugly way and tried to stop, but she couldn’t.
Every time she was on the verge of emotional breakdown, he would appear just like when they were children.
Karina and others noticed the situation there, stunned, and looked at Leo with strange look in their eyes.
They had never met Leo and they didn’t know that there was another vice president. They laughed and said, “What did I say? She just joined the company, and now picks up a man in other departments.”
“Bitch.”
“It’s humiliating to work with such a person.”
Other women chimed in.
Caroline wore an ugly look, and she hurriedly said to Leo, “Why are you here? You quickly leave here, and I can handle it myself.”
Leo smiled and said, “It’s nothing. I just come to see you, knowing you join this company.”
He looked at the computer screen with a smile and said, “Problems at work?”
Caroline hesitated for a moment and then nodded.
“Let me change it for you.”
Finishing, Leo began to revise the document.
“You don’t ...”
Caroline was about to stop him. But she was surprised by the perfect document which was just revised by Leo.
Ten minutes later, Leo stood up with a smile and said, “You did a good job. But pay more attention to details.”
Caroline froze for a long time. The words was said like a superior to his subordinate, but it’s incredibly appropriate.
A female employee laughed, “Karina, this person helped her do the work.”
Although Karina did not speak, the disdainful expression on her face told everything.
Caroline printed the document and handed it to Karina, “I have changed it according to your requirements.”
Pa!
However, Karinathrew the papers to the ground without even looking at them.
“What are you doing??” Caroline’s face suddenly changed.
“What? Of course, redo it now.”
Karina sneered, “It just took you ten minutes to revise it and I pay no expectation to the quality.”
Then she looked at Leo and shouted, “I don’t care what department you are in, but this is the Foreign Trade Department, you get out!”
Leo glanced at her, but this glance shocked Karina.
For a moment, she believed that she had offended somebody.
But she soon came to herself and shouted, “Caroline, let you boyfriend get out of here. No romance on the job!”
“Karina, that’s enough!”
Caroline hit the table hard and glared at Karina, “He’s not my boyfriend, he’s married!”
“I know you hate me, but it’s all in the past. Why are you taking this personally?”
“And it had nothing to do with me that your boyfriend dumped you. He pursued me but I never intervened in your relationship.”
“How dare you talk back?”
Caroline mentioned the previous scandal, and Karina’s face turned very ugly, “Now you slapped yourself, or you are waiting to be fired!”
Caroline was shocked, “What, you want me to slap myself?”
Karina sneered again, “You should pay the price for your wrong words, and I can tell you that we will have a new minister of our department. If
you want me to keep your things, you’d better listen to me.”
Caroline got red eyes and her fist clenched tightly. But she compromised, “OK, I do it!”
Karina sneered, and the other women behind her all gloated at Caroline.
She raised her hands and slapped in her own face.
Suddenly, a figure suddenly showed up and stopped her hand.
“T will not allow it.”
Leo stared at her and shook his head.
