Chapter 445: Cheap Uncle
June Sherman did not answer directly, she just said softly, "Who told you that?"
She is currently at the hospital.
That bitch Thea Shaw didn’t hold back with that slap. After leaving Kensington Group, she found her face was getting more painful and it was swelling.
After arriving at the hospital, she had anti-swelling treatment. The doctor even asked her who she had such a big conflict with to strike so viciously. A slight deviation with such force could even risk a ruptured eardrum.
Hearing the possibility of a ruptured eardrum, June Sherman instinctively recalled the few girls she had slapped in the past, some had experienced ruptured eardrums.
But so what.
This thought flashed by and she dismissed it, her heart now filled with hatred towards Thea Shaw.
She hates Thea Shaw, despises Thea Shaw, from the first glance she disliked her intensely.
She grits her teeth in hatred, she even hit her in front of the whole company. She wants Thea Shaw to die a horrible death!
Malice from people is often irrational, especially since June Sherman is naturally an extreme person.
Nancy Shea spoke in the gentlest tone possible, "Someone told Mom they saw you having a conflict somewhere else today."
June Sherman suppressed the violence and impatience in her heart, her fingers trembling slightly from restraint, she gritted her teeth and said, "It’s nothing major, I’ll hang up first."
Afraid she might curse uncontrollably if she said more.
Hearing the dead dial tone, Nancy Shea’s gaze drifted afar, her heart filled with increasing anxiety.
She could tell from June Sherman’s final tremor in her voice, indicating she was quite furious.
She’s not familiar with Thea Shaw, but since June Sherman wouldn’t speak, Nancy Shea could only ask Thea Shaw for the specifics.
After asking about the details and hearing her daughter had provocatively caused trouble for no reason, Nancy Shea could only apologize to Thea Shaw: [I apologize on her behalf, she might have been in a bad mood at the moment.]
Thea Shaw sneered but did not reply.
Nancy Shea knew very well that this excuse did not hold water, thus did not dare pursue the matter of Thea Shaw hitting someone.
What Nancy Shea pondered was, for no apparent reason, why June Sherman would target Thea Shaw when they only glanced once before and hadn’t spoken.
-
The whole day passed without anyone causing trouble for Thea Shaw.
No one reported her to higher-ups, June Sherman didn’t return either, not sure how the cooperation discussions went, but anyway, Thea Shaw was fine.
By now, everyone in the office knew the new duo were truly tough cookies.
Caused such a big mess yet no one pursued it, if they’re not tough cookies, who would be?
Come quitting time, seeing Thea Shaw and Aurora Sutton take their materials and leave without a backward glance, no one dared open their mouth to mock.
Yet they themselves didn’t dare to clock out.
Rowan Donovan gazed at Thea Shaw and Aurora Sutton leaving freely, a hint of envy in her eyes, but deep down, she knew she could never be as uninhibited as them.
Downstairs, coincidentally, Thea Shaw and Aurora Sutton bumped into Gordon Woods also heading to the underground parking lot after work.
They were taking the executives’ exclusive elevator, but their destination was the parking lot, they bumped into each other as soon as the elevator doors opened.
Following Gordon Woods was a gentle and refined-looking middle-aged man.
Upon seeing this middle-aged man, for some unknown reason, Thea Shaw remembered Mark Moody, who also had a refined appearance.
The difference was Mark Moody seemed to have a facade of a deceptive master image, while this man was the typical elite type, steady and mature.
Aurora Sutton was a bit surprised upon seeing the man, without needing to say anything, Thea Shaw already knew who he was.
The company’s general manager, currently the apparent head of Kensington Group, Aurora Sutton’s opportunistic uncle.
