Love Together, Be With You Never novel Chapter 81

Everly paused for a moment. Then she took the contract and opened it. I put my arms around my chest and looked at her. Savoring my joy, I slowly said, "Universal Group is a top-notch company. The rules and regulations here are strict. Only the talented ones can be an employee of Universal Group. And everyone present are real talents!"

As I said these words, I looked around. Everyone's face was filled with pride. I smiled in satisfaction, then I looked towards Everly, "I'm just an ordinary undergraduate. Naturally, I can't be as good as any colleague here. But I understand that a slow sparrow should make an early start. And I believe Universal Group values efficiency instead of keeping routines. So I went to Marlon Group early in the morning, trying to get the contract as early as possible. But I didn't expect Ms. Everly to judge me like that!" My last words was especially loud as I stared at Everly.

At this moment, only silence filled the spacious office. Everyone was staring at Everly and me. They didn't expect that I not only got the contract but also gave Everly this kind of attitude.

Everly was calm. She closed the contract and looked at me with contempt. "You're right. Universal Group values efficiency. But you should inform me about your plan in advance!"

I smiled and met Everly's arrogant gaze, "Ms. Everly, I remember that your private number is not open to the public, and I can't call your office before you work. I don't know how to notify you. Besides, you are so busy. I didn't expect that you would mind such details. I didn't tell you because I'm afraid I'll wear you out with such trivia!"

I suddenly covered my mouth, "Or are you paying extra attention to me because I am Kieran's girlfriend?"

Everly's face instantly darkened, "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

I slowly answered, "I'm saying that you are paying extra attention to me because of Kieran. Did I say something wrong?"

Everly's expression was cold as she said word by word, "No, I paid so much attention to you because I don't want you to ruin Mr. Charles' reputation!"

I gazed at Everly coldly. "Everly, you are our supervisor. Kieran trusts you, so he gave you the right to lead. But you said such words to slander Kieran. Why are you doing this?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? When did I slander Mr. Charles?" Everly shouted, her eyes filled with anger.

Everyone present was dumbfounded. They were petrified. They could never imagine that I would reprimand Everly.

I smiled, "Ms. Everly, you forget what you have said so soon! Just now, you implied that I opened my legs to get Kieran's help and secured advantages through Kieran's influence!"

"Isn't that the truth?" Everly approached me. She was much taller than me. I was almost in her shadow.

I slowly raised my head, casting her cold looks. "Everly, I'm Kieran's girlfriend. Isn't it natural for us to be intimate? But you are implying our intimacy is a kind of misconduct. Tell me, are you slandering Kieran and inducing others to misunderstand Kieran? What if Kieran hears you? If others hear you and tell Kieran the exaggerated version, what will he feel?"

Everly froze and couldn't think of a word to retort me in an instant.

"Ms. Everly, I know you don't mean what you said. But don't forget, I'm Kieran's girlfriend. If anyone says something like that again and Kieran gets angry, I can't make sure that person will be unharmed!" I smiled. As I spoke, I looked around the entire office. No one dared to make eye contact with me. They all lowered their heads.

Everly's expression was cold. She looked at me fiercely, "I misused some words just now, but Rachael, if you can't complete this project, I will fire you even though you are Mr. Charles' girlfriend!" After saying that, Everly threw the contract to me and turned back to the office. I looked at her leaving figure and smiled faintly. Then I returned to my seat. Everyone in the office secretly looked at me, but they didn't dare to say anything anymore.

I took out all the material and wanted to see where to start. To be honest, this was not my profession. I had no idea what I was doing now. I wanted to avenge the Cornell family and Alicia with this opportunity. But I was not confident.

"Rachael!" Suddenly, a cup of hot tea appeared in front of me. I looked up and saw Yanis standing in front of me with a smile on her face. She whispered, "Rachael, you're awesome. I am so scared of Ms. Everly. I didn't expect you to be so brave today. You vented my anger!" Yanis smiled like a child.

Seeing Yanis giving me the tea, people around fell their gazes on Yanis, whispering as if Yanis was a weird person.

"Alright, thank you!" I took the tea and said no more. Although I don't know much about Yanis, she was the only person in this office who liked me. And in the whole office, I only liked her. However, I was already in a difficult situation. Everyone disliked me. I didn't want Yanis to face that.

Seeing that I was indifferent, Yanis didn't say anything and left. Looking at Yanis, I smiled. Perhaps I was destined to have no friends. People would get hurt when they got close to me.

I didn't think too much. After all, this was what I should think about. I calmed down and looked through the materials. Then I went to the bathroom.

"Is there something wrong with Yanis?"

"That's right! She spoke with Rachael. She's not afraid of being infected by her!"

I retracted my hand from the door and stood in the bathroom stall to listen to the gossip outside. I recognized these voices. They belonged to people in my office.

"Originally, I wanted to make friends with her. I heard that her family is wealthy, and her boyfriend is super handsome and stylish. But I didn't expect her to be so stupid!"

"That's right. We should stay away from her. Since she is willing to speak with such a cheap person. We should stop talking to her. Soon, she will become as cheap and disgusting as Rachael!" Before they left, they talked for a while.

I opened the door, looked at myself in the mirror, smiled at myself, and walked out.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Charles. I'm sorry. I'm sorry!" As soon as I came out of the stall, I heard Yanis' frightened voice. I walked out and saw Yanis standing in a corner trembling with a cup in the hand. There were some water stains on the ground. Kieran stood there with a cold expression. Kieran's cold aura enveloped the entire office as if he was the king of hell. Everyone else was standing far away, not daring to breathe!
