Chapter 31
Joe and Skr even looked away at the same time.
“You can deal with this,” Joe said while looking at Paul. Then, he strolled out of the office area’s
main doors as he had only passed by the space.
Paul knew about Joe and Skr’s rtionship; they were secretly married and didn’t want others to
know about it. That was why he couldn’t formally greet Skr.
Still, the fact that Joe had let Paul handle things meant Joe didn’t want Skr to be picked on.
The irony was Skr hadn’t gotten bullied by the others. In fact, she had even beaten someone up
as
though she was bringing the wrongdoers to justice.
Despite that, one could only me Sadie for mistreating Skr and being unlucky enough to bump
into
Joe.
With that in mind, Paul ordered, “Check the surveince footage and see if these women have
framed our
employee. If that’s the case, call the police at once.”
That rattled the manager at once.
Sadie’s arrogant expression dropped. “What?”
Even Maisy paled in sheer shock. “Mr. Martin may have asked you to deal with our case, but do
you
seriously n to resolve the issue this way?”
Skr didn’t give away the fact that she knew Paul. She nodded at thetter neutrally as thanks.
Janine said to Paul, “Thank you for believing me.”
That was when Paul’s voice took a stern shift, and he turned to face the manager. “As for you, this
incident has demonstrated your unprofessionalism, as well as your inability to remain unfazed and
unsed.
“Go and collect another month’s sry from the finance department. Then, I want you to resign of
your
own will,”
The manager had just texted the office group chat, asking someone to go through the surveince
footage for the elevator. He’d never imagined that he’d get fired immediately after.
This job position was the best he’d gotten in years. It came with a high monthly sry and a great
working environment. He couldn’t believe he’d gotten fired for defending the hotel’s guests.
Meanwhile, Sadie and Maisy were freaking out.
Sadie red daggers at Skr and Janine, thinking it had been a waste to treat Skr so well
these past
six months.
She felt betrayed by the fact that Skr had sided with Janine to attack her. It infuriated her to no
end.

Yet, she refused to involve the police in this incident. After all, the surveince cameras had caught
her. red–handed.
Her eyes darted down as she eximed, “Gosh! What’s my ring doing here? This incident is a
misunderstanding.
N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
“I didn’t lose my ring, so you guys don’t have to check the surveince footage or call the police
anymore. It’s my mistake.”
Maisy tolerated the pain in her cheek from being pped as she yed along. “Oh, so it was in
your bag, Mom. It seems this was all a misunderstanding.”
“A misunderstanding, huh?” Skr knew the duo were putting on an act. Without a trace of emotion,
she looked at them.
The two had behaved the same in her past life. They had always brushed off their actions as a
misunderstanding after they’d gotten caught.
Not only had they gotten away clean, but they’d also told Skr not to be offended by them.
At the time, Skr had let things slide and forgiven them with ease because she’d seen them as
family.
Skr now knew Sadie and Maisy would never admit they were at fault. Because of that, she said
stoically, “It’s best if we still settle this incident in the police’s presence.”
Paul had previously investigated Skr’s rtionship with the Williams family. The information he’d
received imed Skr supported the family and wanted to join them.
However, the scene before him felt like an entirely different situation.
That was when Paul recalled how Joe had ordered him to retract their support for the Williams
family a few days ago. It seemed the Williams family and Skr weren’t on good terms now.
“What on earth are you trying to do, Skye?” Sadie hissed.
Her patience depleted while anger and anxiety coursed through her veins. Howe neither her
soft nor her harsh approaches seemed to be working with Skr?
