Chapter 26 Linsey Is
Fearless
Linsey’s gaze locked with Cynthia’s, her expression steady and calm. Then, without warning, Linsey leaned in closer, her voice dropping to a dangerous whisper. “Yes. I spilled the coffee on purpose.”
Cynthia’s face flushed with fury, her eyes narrowing at Linsey. But before she could retort, Linsey’s next words froze her in
place.
“I’m here to work and make a living. If you keep interfering, next time, it won’t just be coffee.”
Linsey’s eyes never wavered as she scrutinized Cynthia’s face, as though searching for her next target.
“You’re pretty, you know. Pity if something… happened to that face.”
Cynthia’s body stiffened in terror, her breath catching. Just as she braced herself, Linsey released her, and Cynthia, panic
overtaking her, instinctively shielded her face with her hands, terrified Linsey might strike.
If Linsey had any intention of making Cynthia regret her actions, Cynthia certainly had her own ways of dealing with it.
But one thing was clear–she couldn’t afford to ruin her face.
Anger simmered beneath the surface, but Cynthia kept it in check, unwilling to escalate things further. After a tense
moment, she stamped her foot in frustration and stormed off, her exit as dramatic as it was quick.
Linsey didn’t bat an eye as she watched Cynthia disappear, her expression unreadable. There was no hint of remorse in her
-just a calm indifference.
She absentmindedly glanced down at the stain on her clothes and, with a soft sigh, made her way toward the restroom.
Once they had both left, the office atmosphere shifted. A collective breath was released as the tension ebbed away.
One colleague couldn’t resist commenting. “Linsey is fearless. She actually dared to go up against Cynthia like that.”
One colleague murmured, “It seems like Linsey already stepped on Cynthia’s toes during the interview yesterday, so one more confrontation today probably isn’t a big deal.”
Another chimed in. “But don’t you think Linsey’s the one who’s really not to be messed with?”
A heavy silence followed, the weight of their words hanging in the air. The atmosphere in the office had shifted, and it was
clear to everyone that Linsey wasn’t someone to provoke lightly.
Breaking the uneasy stillness, one colleague, who clearly wasn’t picking up on the tension, took a casual sip of his coffee
and grinned “Honestly, the coffee from this new café is amazing.”
The others exchanged looks, rolling their eyes at his attempt to lighten the mood.
“Well,” another colleague began, his voice lower now, “even though Coen said we could have Linsey run errands for us in the future, we should probably be careful not to push her too far.”
