Chapter 41


    Heldi was unustomed to such treatment. She struggled and cursed, “ra, you hit me? Believe


    It or not, I can make sure your dad rots in jail!”


    The mention of her father only fueled ra’s anger, and she doubled down on her grip.


    “If your parents didn’t know how to raise you right, then I guess it falls on me to teach your a


    lesson.”


    Heidi was shorter than ra, and having always been pampered and spoiled, she was no match for


    ra’s strength. Minutester, Heidi’s face resembled a swollen pumpkin.


    Through gritted teeth and pain, Heidi hissed, “ra, you’re gonna regret this!” With that, she


    clutched her face and ran off.


    ra looked at her reddened palm, her eyes still simmering with resentment. The trouble Heidi had


    caused wasn’t something a few ps could resolve.

    ra had wed her way out of the gutter once, and she wasn’t about to let Heidi push her back


    down.


    Sheposed herself and headed back to her office to work. Half an hourter, Dawson rushed in,


    tapping her desk.


    “Ms. ra, Mr. Hayes wants to see you. Ms. Heidi’s been telling tales, iming you hit her.”


    He looked at her concernedly. “Leonora’s with her, and they don’t look too happy. Be careful.”


    Unruffled, ra stood up from her chair and said calmly, “No one can pin something on me that I


    didn’t do.” With that, she confidently walked to the CEO’s office.


    Upon entering, she saw Heidi weeping dramatically in Leonora’s arms. “Ian, my face doesn’t hurt


    anymore, but if I go home like this, my dad and brother will never let ra off the hook. She’s been


    harboring resentment because of that incident with Ms. Sasha, and I get it. Letting her vent by


    hitting me is fine. Just don’t make trouble for ra. After all, she did donate blood to me once, and I


    can’t forget that kindness.”


    ra nearlyughed out loud! Heidi was wasting her talent for not being in the showbiz. ra


    nced around the room with aposed expression and asked, “What happened to Ms. Heidi’s


    face? Does it have anything to do with me?”


    Leonora red at her furiously. “ra, you hit someone and now you’re ying innocent? What


    kind of chief secretary are you?n, I demand you fire her on the spot and make her apologize to


    Heidi.”


    ra sneered. “Leonora, did you see me hit her?”

    “Heidi sald you did. Are you saying she’s lying?”


    “Leonora, you’re a graduate from a prestigious university yourself, with a degree inw if I’m not


    mistaken. As aw school graduate, you should still remember the basics. To use someone, you


    need evidence and witnesses. So, aside from Heidi’s word, did anyone else see me hit her? Is there


    evidence that those marks on her face came from me? If not, then I’d appreciate it if you didn’t


    nder an innocent person without cause.”


    Leonora was taken aback. When had this infuriating woman be so sharp–tongued and even


    dared to insinuate she was old?


    Fuming, Leonora spat out, n, look at her! Does she look like a chief secretary to you? She’s no


    different from a crazy barfly.”


    “Let’s stick to the facts and avoid personal attacks, Leonora. Otherwise, I’ll also resort to legal


    means to protect myself.”
