After divorce I am a billionaire -
Chapter 741 Push her in the teeth of the storm
Anthony just wanted Zack to come forward and give her an out.
So, Zack followed along and said, "Mavis is in her first day of work today. It's excusable if she doesn't know the rules. It's better to wait until the internship period is over before deciding whether to let her stay o go."
Anthony's expression softened a lot, "Since you are all begging for her, then take it as a warning. Next time if she's caught on the spot, pack up and get out."
"Okay." Zack bowed his head slightly. Seeing no response from Mavis, he winked and reminded, "Thank him soon."
Mavis bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, Mr. Callahan."
Anthony looked solemn. He stared at her for a while, then turned and walked away.
When Zack and him both got into the elevator, the entire floor of employees dared to breathe a sigh of relief.
Nyla cried because of it, sobbing and wiping her tears with a tissue.
An employee who was close to her immediately came over to comfort her.
She cried and complained to Mavis, "It's all because of you! You insisted on asking me so many questions, so that I was scolded by Mr. Callahan and almost fired! The salary deduction is for sure. Mr. Callahan's impression on me will be negative..."
Mavis really felt that it had implicated her and felt a little guilty, "I'm sorry. If this will cause you to be deducted your salary, when I get the internship salary next month, I will give you that part of the money." Nyla was barely comfortable.
Seeing that Mavis was so good, she became unreasonable, "I was reprimanded by Mr. Callahan. How do you pay for the mental damage? Zack just defended you. Don't think you're very proud!" Mavis turned around and sat upright, no longer argued anything, and continued typing on the keyboard.
Nyla got even more angry when she saw that she didn't speak.
"Why is your attitude like that?! I just kindly answered your doubts, but you made me get scolded. You just made a fake apology?"
Mavis sighed.
She obviously apologized sincerely. If Nyla insisted that she was hypocritical, then she had nothing to explain.
Her attitude angered the people who were helping Nyla.
In front of her, those people deliberately talked loudly.
"Some people just seemed to be particularly happy to show off."
"That's right. Mr. Callahan didn't even ask. She just said a lot, and she was about to get close to him."
"She's just an intern on the first day of work. Zack actually defended her. She won't have an affair with Zack, will she ?"
"I think it's possible... Zack is the most capable special assistant of Mr. Callahan. He has been with Mr. Callahan since he took office. If Mavis has an affair with him, she is a gold digger!" A group of people was jealous.
But thinking of Anthony's attitude towards Mavis just now, and directly reprimanding her in front of so many people, it was estimated that Mavis had already been included in the blacklist of lazy employees. A group of people was happy again.
The jeering sound was particularly harsh. Mavis stopped typing.
She turned around and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone, "I am really sorry for causing Nyla to be scolded today, but I don't have any improper relationship with Mr. Evans. Please stop spreading rumors."
Nyla was very disdainful, "Why are you pretending? Do you think Zack is a nice guy? And everyone will help you? You are a new intern. If you don't know him well, how can he defend you in front of Mr. Callahan?"
Others echoed, "Well, I remember it was Zack who helped her enter this company."
"And all this shit? Shouldn't she be... a mistress of Zack?"
The voice of discussion, not only did not stop, but also became more and more outrageous.
There was no need to argue with a group of gossiping people. Mavis was too lazy to deal with it, and continued to deal with the unfinished work.
Laughter surrounded her, and they were all jealousy of her, wishing to stab her to death.
"Mavis!"
Zack, who had just left with Anthony, was back with a clear goal this time.
The discussion stopped instantly.
Mavis looked up, "What's the matter?"
"Pack up your things and come out with me."
Mavis was stunned, "But I haven't finished the work ..."
"It's normal for you to come here on the first day and not finish it. If there is an urgent matter. Hurry up."
No way. Mavis had to save the unedited document, turned off the computer, and left with Zack.
Zack let her go ahead and warned the gossip staff just now.
"Pay more attention to work and less inquiry about personal affairs. Mr. Callahan is very taboo about this kind of unprofessional behavior. If Mr. Callahan hears it, don't blame me for not reminding you. All of you will be fired."
A group of people huddled in their workstations to prevent to be innocent.
As Zack left, they started to get angry again.
"Look, we were just skeptical just now, and Zack has defended her. He really spoils this newcomer."
"Why is she so lucky? Just because her face is a little bit beautiful? She must be arrogant in private, and seduce men a lot."
A female employee, who had grandiose aim but puny ability, rolled her eyes, "What kind of skill she has to be Zack's side? If she has the ability, she can seduce Mr. Callahan. I heard that Mr. Callahan is still single, a real rich and handsome man. Maybe one day, he will fall in love with me!"
She shyly covered her face and scratched her head.
A group of people unceremoniously threw a damp over, "Are you OK? You are not as beautiful as that Mavis!"
Just a few minutes after Mavis left, the disgust of all the gossip female employees in the entire department had targeted her.
Quickly, Mavis became the primary target of hatred and isolation.
Mavis followed Zack to the elevator, with her head down all the way, in a bad mood.
Zack comforted her, "Where there are many women, it is easy to be eventful. Madam, you don't need to take them seriously. If you have any difficulties, come to me, and I will definitely help you." "Thank you, but... I'm just an intern at CG, not a madam."
"Hmm..."
Zack didn't know how to answer.
When the elevator reached the lower floor, Zack bowed slightly and made a gesture of invitation, "You should know Mr. Callahan's car. He is waiting for you in the car, so I won't send you there." "Okay, thank you."
Mavis stepped out of the elevator and looked in the parking lot.
Anthony's luxury car was conspicuous, and she found it quickly.
She stood at the door of the car for a while, and after hesitating, she chose to open the rear door.
The co-pilot window slowly rolled down. Anthony's face was cold, and he reminded her impatiently, "Take the co-pilot."
She was just scolded in public just now so she was not in the mood to sit in a row with him.
Mavis was depressed. Under his cold gaze, she still opened the passenger's door, sat in, and fastened her seat belt.
Anthony was really upset and wanted to call her out and scold her.
But seeing her bowing her head, as if she was wronged, he couldn't open his mouth for a while.
"How do you feel about your first day at work?"
Mavis bit her lower lip and replied softly, "It's okay. I have a lot of work to do. I'm not used to it, but I should be able to get used to it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
Anthony laughed and couldn't help reaching out and pinching her face, "It seems you're capable. I came here just now. Why did you deliberately avoid me?"
"Did you forget the hidden marriage agreement we signed when we got married before? You said you wanted to hide the marriage outside. I didn't know it is your company beforehand, so of course I pretended not to know you."
Mavis was even more aggrieved, and the tip of her nose was sore.
"I don't know your temper well. If I just said I know you well, you'd probably be able to scold me even more, right?"
Anthony was speechless.
Why did it sound like it was his fault?
