Chapter 772
Soon, Oscar instructed the HR department to fire Isabe. The manager of the HR department brought
two guards to escort Isabe out. “Ms. Walker, you''re no longer an employee of thepany. Please
hand in your work ID card before you leave.”
There were mixed emotions on Isabe''s face. She clenched her fists tightly, her cheeks burning. She
had never been so humiliated as she was that day. It was obvious that Oscar was trying to abash her in
front of the wholepany so that she would resign from thepany willingly.
Naturally, she wouldn''t do as he wished. She had entered thepany to get closer to Oscar, and she
had been doing everything with the goal of bing his woman. Since her goal had not been
achieved yet, there was no way she would ept her bleak fate and leave thepany willingly.
“Mr. Floyd, I haven''t done anything wrong nor did I harm thepany in any way. As such, I strongly
object to Mr. Clinton''s decision of dismissing me like this. I won''t ept it. Even if you want me to
leave, I will need to go up and question his decision myself first. I will always be Mrs. Clinton''s
goddaughter whether I''m working in thepany or not. So I hope you''re wise enough to not stop me.”
Isabe narrowed her eyes, her attitude was even more arrogant than that of the manager.
The manager of the HR department, Carlton Floyd, was a smart man. As such, he dared not offend
Isabe, considering thetter was still Olivia''s goddaughter. He had to take into ount their
rtionship before making his move. Otherwise, if Isabe said something in front of Olivia, he
reckoned he would lose his job as the manager of the HR department.
“Ms. Walker, I won''t object if you want to talk to Mr. Clinton, but can you please give me your work ID
card first? I believe you will be more wee by Mr. Clinton if you visit him in your private capacity,”
Carlton said.
Isabe rolled her eyes at him angrily before shoving him away and heading upstairs.
“What are you still waiting for? Didn''t you hear what Mr. Clinton ordered? Escort any unauthorized
personnel out of thepany right now.” Carlton shouted at the guards who were standing by the side.
Upon receiving the instruction, the guards rushed over and stopped Isabe.
Isabe''s face became even more sullen. She flushed under the intense gazes of other employees.
Back when I was still the director, Carlton always sucked up to me. Yet, he dared to send others to stop
me now. This guy is getting so full of himself!
“Mr. Floyd, what do you think you are doing?” Isabe said through gritted teeth.
Carlton smiled apologetically. “Ms. Walker, I''m sorry if I''ve upset you. I was ordered by Mr. Clinton to
collect the work ID card from you. You are the goddaughter of Mrs. Clinton, so you''d still be able to
come to thepany in the future whenever you like, right?”
Isabe knew that if she didn''t give the work ID card to Carlton that day, she wouldn''t have the chance
to see Oscar. After weighing the pros and cons, she tossed the ID card angrily to the ground.
“There you go.” Isabe said angrily, “You''re such ackey, so eager to please your master.”
Carlton was unfazed by her insult. He bent over and picked up the work ID card before saying to the
guards, “You guys can escort Ms. Walker out now. It''d be bad if we disturbed the other employees at
work.”
“Carlton Floyd, what exactly do you think you''re doing?” Isabe red at him and dodged away from
the two guards. Seeing how they were approaching her unrelentingly, she got angry and gave them a
p each. She growled, “Don''t you dare touch me, or I will sue you for harassment. Even if I don''t work
here, you petty guards can''t afford to mess with a big shot like me.”
The two guards stopped and looked at Carlton hesitantly.
Carlton couldn''t help but feel a little helpless. If it were someone else who got fired, he would simply get
the security guards to throw that person out no matter how vicious the tantrums that person was
throwing. However, the person who was throwing a fit right at this moment was Isabe. Seeing how
close the rtionship between the Walker family and the Clinton family was, Carlton knew he had to
act carefully as he was now treading on thin ice.
“Ms. Walker, Mr. Clinton has dismissed you from your post. I''m sure he has his own reasons for
removing you from thepany. If you disagree with his decision, I suggest you wait for him to calm
down first beforeing back to thepany afterward. Instead of making a fuss in thepany now,
I think it will be better if you ask him yourself then. Don''t you think so?” Carlton tried to make his tone
as gentle as possible.
He didn''t want to annoy Isabe. Otherwise, she would throw endless tantrums in thepany, and he
was sure that by then, he would be dismissed from his post as the manager too.
Isabe immediately calmed down when she heard that.
She turned around, went back to her office, packed up some of her things, and left. The two guards
followed behind her all the way when she cursed angrily, “Are you guys mutts? Stop following me, and
buzz off!”
The two guards stopped in their tracks.
Feeling dejected, Isabe left thepany. She returned home full of anger and frustration. When she
saw Stephanie lying on the couch with her bulging belly, eating fruit and watching dramas, the fire
burning within her zed stronger.
There I was being humiliated by Oscar in thepany, while Stephanie is making use of her status to
enjoy her life in my house. This is simply unbearable!
Well, isn''t Oscar trying to make a big deal out of this? I guess it''s time for me to cut loose and wreak
some havoc then. She decided she would send both the Walker family and the Clinton family into
chaos. With Stephanie, the troublemaker here, she reckoned Oscar would not have the energy to take
care of the matter about the photos.
The more chaotic the situation became, the greater the chance of Oscar returning to the Clinton
residence. When the timees, she would seize the chance and drug his food again. Then, she
would find a psychiatrist to hypnotize him. By then, he would be mine and mine only.
Her mood instantly brightened up when she thought of how after she and Oscar got together, she
would be able to drive those who used to talk behind her back out of thepany.
With a simple n in mind, she walked toward Stephanie.
“Stephanie.” Isabe smiled gently.
Stephanie nced at Isabe. She was gettingzy ever since she was pregnant. Her belly also looked
bigger than those of other pregnant women.
“Why are you home so early today?” Stephanie asked.
Isabe walked over to help her up. She then said, “You''ve been pregnant for several months now, and
your belly is getting bigger. Why don''t you ask the maid to apany you for a walk? It won''t be easy
for you to give birth if you go on like this.”
Stephanie pursed her lips and said disgruntledly, “Look at my waistline! I''m almost as fat as a pig now.
Noah is busy with work and doesn''t care about me at all. If it weren''t for the fact that hees back
every day without any scent of women on him, I would have wondered if he was hiding a lover outside.
If I ever find out that he has a mistress, I''ll definitely teach him a good lesson.”
A wicked sneer appeared on Isabe''s face before she quickly hid it away.
“Stephanie, people always say that pregnant women like to overthink everything, especially those like
you who have been pregnant for a few months. I didn''t believe it at first, but now I''ve changed my mind.
Noah really pampers you a lot. He always tells me to go easy on you, saying that you haven''t had a
good sleep or appetite since you''re pregnant.” In truth, you eat more and sleep heavier since you''re
pregnant. You''re no different than a pig now. Otherwise, your body won’t bloat up like this. I feel sorry
for my brother.
“I heard that Noah secretly called someone to arrange a surprise for you. I don''t know what it is, but
you can go and ask around. That being said, please don''t tell him that you got the news from me,”
Isabe said deliberately.
She knew that Noah had prepared a surprise because Emma''s birthday was approaching. He had
prepared a birthday present specifically to make up for not being able to celebrate the new year with
her this year. If Stephanie finds out about this, a fiasco would surely ensue.
Stephanie took the bait when she heard Isabe. Her eyes lit up, and she said, “Isabe, did Noah
really prepare a present for me? I have to go take a look.”
“Stephanie.” Isabe took her hand and said, “I told you, didn''t I? It''s a surprise, so we have to pretend
we don''t know anything. But don''t worry, once Noah''s set up everything, I''ll secretly take you to see it.
I''m sure you will like the surprise. After all, I took part in preparing the gift. He said it was for you, so I
hope you''ll appreciate his painstaking efforts.”
Stephanie''s face finally brightened up at that.
“At least he''s conscientious enough to know that I am still his wife.”
“Stephanie, Noah adores you and will cater to all your wishes.”
“Well, I deserve it. I''m going to give birth to a child for him, and I''ll even lose my curvaceous body
because of this. It''s only natural that he should treat me well.”
“Indeed. He should treat you nicely.”
“I''m d that you think this way too.”
Stephanie hummed in contentment. Then, she remembered Isabe''s early return that day.
“Isabe, why did youe home so early today?”
Isabe''s eyes dimmed. She embellished and exaggerated her story in thepany to Stephanie,
ming Amelia for the predicament.
Stephanie fumed, “This Amelia is insufferable. She leaves andes as she pleased. She knows
Oscar loves her, and that''s why she dares to act this way. You''re supposed to be the daughter-inw of
the Clinton family. Not only did this womane and snatched away what was supposed to be yours,
but she also drove you out of thepany. No, this won''t do. I''ll go home tomorrow and tell my mother
about this. I can''t let Amelia have her way.”
Isabe sighed and said, “Stephanie, what''s the use if you go andin about it? Oscar is the one
who''s in charge of thepany now, and he insists on me leaving. He humiliated me, and I reckon I
must have lost everyone''s respect. Forget it.”

Stephanie got angrier upon hearing that.
“How can you just let it go like this? It''s not your fault. It was Oscar who came to provoke you first.
Someone took a photo of him kissing you and sent it to Amelia''s phone. That''s why Amelia questioned
him. Why should you take the me for it? Since when did Oscar be such a coward that he didn''t
even dare to admit that he has another lover outside?” she said angrily.
After a pause, she added, “Isabe, we''ll go to the Clinton residence tomorrow to seek justice for you.
I''m going to question Oscar why he didn''t admit that he had kissed you.”
“Forget it, Stephanie. Oscar won''t admit to it. He said that he only kissed me because I drugged him
and made him lose his memory. But I don''t me him, though. No one asks me to fall for him, after all.
Even though I know he only loves Amelia, I was still willing to be kissed by him.”
“Still, we can''t just let it go like this!” Stephanie was livid.
Hearing that, a gleam shed across Isabe''s eyes.
