After uttering those words, Holley went straight to the bathroom to reapply her makeup. There was no one inside when she entered.
"Damn it!" she exclaimed. Staying in the empty bathroom, Holley was able to release her suppressed emotions. Her hatred against Rachel amplified not because she lost her temper without specific reasons, but in fact, she had neither competence nor constructive ideas.
She continued to curse while she paced back and forth. When she finally stopped walking, she hit the mirror heavily as she continued to express her annoyance. Unfortunately, unlike the usual mirrors, this one was strong and solid. The impact of each blow didn't even cause a scratch to its surface, but her hand was incredibly hurt.
"I am fucking done with it! When will it end?" Holley screamed at her reflection in the mirror. She turned on the water tap, and washed her face while cursing.
She could still feel a part of her in heat with rage. She let the water flow and watched it run down the drain. After a long while, she finally calmed down. Holley brought out her makeup, reapplied it slowly, and left quietly once she was done.
Soon after she left, one of the doors in bathroom opened slowly. Lena Li, the receptionist, stepped out. She turned to see that all the other cubicle doors were all slightly open. She heaved a sigh of relief since Holley was not aware of her presence. Otherwise, she must have been dismissed.
She had waited for a while to ensure nobody was around, and then shook her head and walked out of the bathroom. She came to Tarsan Corporation because of its reputation abroad. Never did she imagine what the management had done here. It was totally unbelievable!
'Is it the normal for the president to be dealing with such business? She seems to be a whining woman. Is there any prospect following such a leader?'
Yet she had second thoughts. In fact, she had neither outstanding academic qualifications nor merits. The reason why she was employed was because her beauty caught Duncan's eye and he selected her out of many average candidates.
Never mind. She didn't care how the leaders were like or if they were planning to take some revenge. All she wanted was a job and a wage to support her living. It would be a waste of time to bother about other things that had little to do with herself.
When Holley and Rachel arrived at Silver Corporation, the receptionist, Lena was there. She saw them as soon as they entered the main entrance but she pretended to be busy. She took another glimpse at them when they were almost close and asked, "Ms. Bai, why are you here again? Mr. Zhan will not be available for you today since he has two meetings to attend later."
Holley was wronged yesterday by this receptionist, and now she was here acting so arrogant. To add to that stress, Holley still suffered from the rage accumulated from Rachel. As a result, she had nowhere to vent her feelings.
Even though they were experiencing a tough situation, it didn't mean that she had the right to humiliate her whenever she can!
Holley remained silent as she moved towards the receptionist. She slapped Lena hard across the face. "You are a part of Silver Corporation and it's not my duty to punish you for your arrogance, but I could barely tolerate such a person like you!" she exclaimed.
"You... You!" Lena was taken by surprise. Never did she imagine that she would be hit at her workplace by someone intending to visit her boss.
"Do you have any problem?" Holley rolled her eyes and pretended to raise her hand for another blow.
