Donald was startled by Fade's fierce eyes, but then he came to his senses in a quick while. He frowned and said with a sour tone, "I said you are a thief, an uncivilized b*stard."
"Roar!"
With a roar, Fade became angry in an instant. Fade did not mind the insults, but for someone who had been an orphan since his childhood, he would never bear with anyone insulting his parents. Donald had crossed his borders. At this moment, Fade did not care about the consequences; he just wanted to teach the guy a good lesson.
Taking a step forward, Fade went in front of Donald in no time, and Fade swung his fist.
Donald did not expect Fade to be so aggressive that he had no time to beware of Fade's fist. Thus, Donald was hit sharply in the face and he fell to the ground with blood all over his face.
Fade did not stop; instead, he continued the fight. Fade's fists and kicks landed on Donald without any hesitation, sending Donald into screams and shouts of pain.
The pain from the beating made Donald wailed and shouted quickly for help, "Security guard, security guard, what are you waiting for? Come and help me! Take this nut away! Quickly
All of a sudden, the security guards came to their senses and hurried forward to rescue Donald.
However, the security guards did not expect Fade to be so fierce that the security guards were not his match.
Donald was still being beaten up, his blood dripped down from his face.
Suddenly, a cold female voice was heard, "Stop! What are you doing?"
Trailing the source of the voice, everyone was shocked. They immediately bowed and whispered, "President Lin!"
Fade, who was in a furious state, also gradually calmed down when he saw Quin walking over to him. Finally, Fade stopped the beating. Donald covered his swollen cheeks and shouted wildly, "Come on! Someone beat him to death!"
"Shut up, all of you. Come to my office," Quin said coldly. Then, she turned around and left.
Donald glared at Fade and followed Quin. Fade looked back at Donald expressionless and was about to follow them.
Just as Fade was about to take his first step, Xenia came over and persuaded him in a soft voice, "Fade, President Lin doesn't favor people who talk back to her. Don't be impulsive in front of her."
"I know. Thank you, Xenia!" Fade smiled at Xenia and waved his hand before following Donald and Quin.
In the president's office on the top floor.
Quin's eyes swept across Donald's whole figure. When Quin saw Donald's bruises, she said, "Secretary Qin, you may deal with your wound first."
When Donald heard this, a smile formed on his lips. Donald planned to get up and leave, but when he thought that Fade will be left alone with Quin, he was afraid that Fade might tell Quin the real situation. Thinking of that, Donald decided not to leave; instead, with a righteous look, he said "President Lin, the matters of the company are more important. Let's solve the current problem first. My injury is nothing." Hearing this, Quin looked at Donald with a smile. Quin nodded to Donald and said, "Then, Secretary Qin, have a sit and talk!"
"Thank you, President Lin." Donald sat down and looked at Fade proudly.
Quin then looked away from Donald and locked her gaze on Fade, a sudden drop in her tone, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Fade looked at the difference in Quin's attitude towards both of them; he felt disappointed.
"Why aren't you speaking? Weren't you very active downstairs?" Quin said coldly.
The voice woke Fade from his thoughts. Fade looked up at Quin and said, "I..."
However, before Fade could say anything, Donald, who was sitting at the side, suddenly spoke, "President Lin, speaking of this matter, it's actually my fault. I did not manage my staff well, and I did not solve the theft in the wisest way. Please punish me."
This statement startled both Fade and Quin.
Fade immediately understood what was going on when he saw Quin's expression changing.
Donald knew that this matter would likely become a debate between both parties, and Quin hated those who avoided responsibility the most. Therefore, Donald took the initiative to admit his mistake, portraying himself as someone with a high sense of responsibility. At the same time, Donald was also able to put the name of "thief" on Fade
Fade had no choice but to admit that Donald was indeed the secretary of the president's office. His survival skills in the workplace were indeed sinister.
After thinking it through, Fade glared at Donald and he tried to explain himself to Quin.
However, it was obvious that this trick of Donald worked very well on Quin. Donald's statement made Quin relaxed and she looked at Donald, "Secretary Qin, tell me, what's going on?"
Covering his wound, Donald frowned and sighed. Shaking his head gently, Donald said, "President Lin, it's actually not a big deal."
"In the afternoon, I heard that there was a newcomer in the medical room, and his skills were good. As I didn't feel very well, I went to the medical room for treatment. However, I didn't expect that this newcomer, Mr. Chen, somehow seemed to have some misunderstandings with me and was not willing to diagnose me."
"At that time, I was agitated due to my illness, so I wanted to punish Mr. Chen for not doing his work properly. In the end, Mr. Chen was also agitated and even wanted to fight me."
"Of course I wouldn't fight him, so I called the security guard to stop him. When the security guard started to take action, one of them accidentally found some pills on Fade. I heard from Xenia who works in the medical room that those were imported pills, which were worth more than 10,000 Yuan."
"Nonsense! I'll beat you to death!" Fade was furious when he heard that Donald was making false statements and hiding the truth.
"Stop, Fade!" Quin frowned and shouted. The stare Quin threw at Fade was filled with even more dissatisfaction. At this moment, Quin slightly regretted her decision of casually replaceing this man to deal with the forced marriage.
At the same time, Fade looked at Quin and thought of their relationship. Fade then took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the urge he felt to beat someone up. Fade explained, "President Lin, the situation is definitely not what Donald had said. At that time, I-"
However, as soon as he spoke, Quin interrupted him coldly. "I didn't ask you to speak. I only want to ask you a question. Is what Secretary Qin said true?"
Fade shook his head and said, "Of course not."
Donald raised his eyebrows and interjected, "How dare you say it's not true? Let me ask you, which of the scenarios I'm telling is not true? Besides, the imported pills have now been confiscated from you, and this is strong evidence. Do you want to deny it? In the end, it is also true that you have beaten me up, isn't it right?"
"Those, I can explain. The matter -" Fade glared at Donald and still tried to explain himself.
However, Quin did not give him a chance as she already seemed to be a little impatient. Quin waved her hand to interrupt him and said coldly, "Don't make excuses. You just need to answer me. Did what Secretary Qin says really happened?"
Looking at Quin's cold eyes, Fade felt a sudden pain in his heart, and then a feeling of helplessness and sadness welled up in his heart. The anger and the desire to fight in him disappeared in an instant. Fade's mouth twitched slightly and formed a bitter smile on his face. Fade then flashed a cynical evil smile and said, "Since President Lin already has an answer in your heart, then it doesn't matter what I have to say. My answer is 'Yes'."
Hearing this, disappointment flashed through Quin's eyes, and it then turned into a formal look with a little coldness. Quin said, "Since you have admitted it, then there is nothing more to say. As you are a newcomer, I will not fire you for the time being. However, you must be severely punished. Your salary for two months will be deducted, and you shall make a self-review in front of all the staff in the next company meeting."
After she finished her sentence, Quin handed Fade a document and coldly said, "This is an announcement for your punishment. You may have a look; if there's no objection, this case is considered settled." "It doesn't matter; it's up to you." Without even looking at the document, Fade turned around and walked towards the door of the office.
At this particular moment, Fade had decided to leave.
Although they were together because of that incident, they were not from the same world after all. If this relationship continues, there will only be more conflicts. If this was the case, it was better to leave. As for "Ice Lotus", he did not actually care that much for the "Ice Lotus" at this moment.
Quin looked at Fade's attitude and she immediately frowned with dissatisfaction. Quin felt that her punishment was actually light for Fade. If it wasn't for the special relationship between them, Quin would have dismissed him. Now, Fade seems to be dissatisfied with the punishment. "This guy-"
A sense of disappointment surged in Quin's heart. Waving her hand, Quin said, "You may leave now!"
Fade did not say anything and turned around to walk out of the office. Donald, at this moment, was full of arrogance and pride, as if he had won a battle. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and a woman's voice was heard. "President Lin, this is Lily. I have something important to be reported to you." "Lily?" Quin paused for a moment; apparently, she was not expecting Lily to come at this hour. After a short pause, Quin said, "Come in, Lily."
