Chapter 165


    “A customer filed a im against me? President Smith, has there been a mistake?” I’ve been on a lot of


    leave daystely. As a result, I didn’t have many projects at hand, nor did I interact much with


    clients. Who the hell filed aint against me?


    “It’s not a mistake. Mr. Walker has filed aint against you, iming that, as a designer, you are


    arrogant and unkind to your client. Furthermore, he also said that you were irresponsible.”


    “I don’t understand, President Smith. I don’t think I did anything wrong!”


    “Ahem…” President Smith cleared his throat. “Lilian, did you call Mr. Walker after I sent it yesterday?”


    “I was about to call him, but his call came through.”


    “Besides, he called youst night. Why didn’t you answer?”


    “It’s not that I refused to answer it, but I didn’t hear the callst night!” I tried my best to prove my


    innocence.


    “Even if you didn’t hear the callsst night, I’m sure you saw the missed calls this morning. If you saw


    that Mr. Walker called you, shouldn’t you have returned his calls?” he snapped.


    “I just saw the calls and was about to call back.” I was silently cursing Eric in my heart; I hated him so


    much he was grinding his teeth. Unfortunately, now was not the time for me to try to reason with the

    facts. Eric had pressured me byining directly to President Smith, so I had no choice but to bend


    over backwards to please both of them.


    “I knew you weren’t the kind of person Mr. Walker imed to be.” He seemed satisfied with my


    answers. “Still, Lilian, I have to be honest with you. We worked together for so many years that we are


    like family to each other. However, Mr. Walker is different –   he’s one of our customers. If you don’t


    actively call him out, it’s a sign of arrogance and disrespect in his eyes. So I think you need to


    apologize to him personally.


    “President Smith, I will call him immediately and apologize to him. There’s no need for me to meet with


    him, right?” Do I have to go meet him in person to apologize?! Is he trying to torment me?! I don’t want!


    “Yes you have! It’s how you express your sincerity. I believe that apologizing in person is better. By the


    way, my driver is already waiting for you downstairs. Hurry and go!” After saying this, President Smith


    ended the call.


    What the hell?! I was so angry that I almost threw the phone. How can Eric be so shameless?! And to


    think he used President Smith to pressure me! If I refuse to apologize to him, it’s like I’m rebelling


    against President Smith! Whatever it is; I have no choice but to bow my head. I took all the bullshit that


    Carson and his family threw at me for so long; what’s a little humiliation like that?


    Grabbing my bag, I left my office. Jessica saw me as I was waiting for the elevator and asked, “Where


    are you going?”


    “I’ll apologize,” I replied sullenly.


    “Huh? What do you need to apologize for?”


    “Ericined that I am arrogant, impolite and irresponsible!” I spat angrily.


    “I knew Eric wasn’t going to let you off that easily. Well, what now? Are you in trouble?”


    Jessica didn’t know about the calls. So the first thing she thought was that Eric was getting revenge for


    revtion. Last night, I was so mad at Eliza that I hadpletely forgotten about this incident! Oh shit!
