The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1366

Nyssa wasn't about to let anyone walk all over her. She snapped back without missing a beat.

"What's got you so on edge? If you haven't been trash-talking the company, why the heck are you interfering with my chat with Ms. Sanchez?"

"You—"

"I've had it up to here with two-faced people like you! Cashing checks from Trust-E while badmouthing it behind its back! Always going on about how we'd be nothing without the Lopez Corporation. Give me a break! If you're such a fan, why didn't you apply for a job there instead of sticking around here?"

Perdita clenched her fists in rage, "That's my choice! Where I apply is none of your business!"

"Oh, please. It's probably because the Lopez Corporation wouldn't even give you the time of day. Who are you trying to fool?"

"Perdita, as an employee of Trust-E, you need to follow company decisions. If you don't like it, feel free to file a complaint with labor arbitration, but don't you dare resort to violence here!"

"Are you lecturing me?" Perdita rolled her eyes, "So now you think you're the boss? Without Mr. Everett Lopez, you'd be nothing. Weren't you just a minor assistant in the Lopez Corporation before somehow catching Mr. Lopez's eye and—"

She couldn't finish her sentence before Dorothy stepped forward and slapped her across the face!
