    Chapter 6: I’ll Show You How


    Lyka Sanders, Xena’s agent, sat on the edge of her seat, trembling with seething fury as she endured


    the incessant ringing tone. Impatience and eagerness gnawed at her nerves as she waited for the other


    person to pick up the call. Finally, when the ringing stopped and Imogen’s voice came through, Lyka


    snapped with immediate anger.


    “Ms. Forbes, if you feel Xena isn’t worthy of yourpany, just say it directly. You’re not our only


    choice! After we’ve pushed off all other endorsements, you’re just going to rece Xena? Are you


    ying tricks on us? You must give Xena an exnation for this matter.”


    Hearing the aggressive tone and usation of the person on the other line, confusion immediately


    surged through Imogen. Still, she pulled herself together and managed to calmly. reply, “Lyka, please


    calm down first. Xena is our spokesperson. How could we possibly do that?”


    Lyka seemed to think mogen was merely feigning innocence, so she reiterated what had happened


    with a bit of sarcasm. “Huh? You don’t know yet? The director of your public rtions department


    called me in person and said they wanted to rece her.”


    Finally grasping the situation, Imogen paused momentarily to mentally prepare her response, aiming


    not to worsen the situation. She then said, “Lyka, I will immediately rify this matter and provide your


    side with an exnation.”


    The call pacified Lyka somewhat, and it finally ended.


    Imogen massaged her temples for a while before getting up and heading straight to the office of the


    public rtions department.


    During her three years at the Marshall Group of Companies, Charlene Johnson, the head of the public


    rtions department, had caused her a lot of trouble.


    As Imogen stormed towards the public rtions department, an employee couldn’t help but whisper,


    “Looks like a good show is about to happen.”


    Sighing, she added, “Ms. Johnson and Ms. Forbes have never gotten along peacefully.”


    The moment Imogen stepped into the Director of Public Rtions office, she didn’t waste any time.


    Without further ado, she demanded, “Charlene, please exin Xena’s endorsement.”


    Charlene was not surprised to see Imogene over. She crossed her arms and walked over slowly.


    “Ms. Forbes, why are you so angry? Please have a seat.”


    A bit irritated, Imogen replied, “Don’t put on airs for me. Mr. Marshall has already approved the n.


    Why are you interfering with our McKesson campaign?”


    “So what if I intervened? What qualifications do you have to shout at me? If it weren’t for your short–


    lived father, could you be in the Marshall family and work as the McKesson brand director? You seem


    to forget already where you came from,” Charlene taunted, refusing to show any sign of weakness.


    Imogen felt the anger boiling within her, but she managed to keep herposure, meeting Charlene’s


    gaze with steely resolve. “How I got the marketing director position is none of your concern. You don’t


    know anything, but you talk big,” she retorted.


    She wouldn’t allow anyone to insult her father! Never!

    As the tension between Imogen and Charlene escted, the room seemed to shrink, suffused with a


    charged atmosphere that drew the attention of many employees away from their workstations. Instead,


    all eyes were fixed on the fiery exchange unfolding before them.


    “What? Am I wrong? Aren’t you the one who tried to worm your way into the Marshall family?

    Didn’t


    you seduce Mr. Marshall?” Charlene added fuel to the fire, wearing a disdainful smile as she looked


    sarcastically at Imogen.


    She had seen Imogen get off Troy’s car and frequently enter his office at noon several times in the


    company. Thus, she hired someone to investigate. Later, she discovered Imogen was just at bumpkin


    out of the mud, relying on her short–lived father to donate his liver to Henry Marshall, Troy’s


    grandfather. It was said that Imogen even used it to manipte the Marshall family into adopting her.


    And now that she had entered the family, she repeatedly pestered and seduced Troy.


    Charlene’s jealousy only intensified as she continued her barrage of usations. “Unfortunately, Ms.


    Page has returned to her home country! So now, Mr. Marshall won’t even spare you a nce, no


    matter how much you beg him! If your short–lived father knew-


    Before Charlene could ish her sentence, Imogen’s control snapped. Her hand flew across Charlene’s


    cheek with astonishing speed and force, the sharp sound echoing through the entire floor, leaving


    everyone gasping in shock.


    Charlene clutched her burning cheek, her eyes wide with disbelief. “How dare you hit me, Imogen! Your


    father just deserved to have a short life with such a shameless daughter like you. He should have-”


    For the second time, Imogen didn’t let Charlene finish her hurtful words. “Since you don’t know how to


    respect, I’ll show you how,” she said, raising her hand once again.


    But just as she prepared to strike Charlene’s face again, someone behind her intervened. Imogen


    struggled against the restraining hold, but her efforts were in vain. When she finally turned to see who


    had stopped her, she was taken aback to find Troy standing there, his expression stern.


    “Mr. Marshall.”
