True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 230

What Grace said was reasonable. Everyone was listening to her.

She looked at the men brought by Claudine. They were the men who beat her.

They were looking at her guiltily.

However, Claudine was still in Grace's hands, her hair was still in her clutches with a penknife pressed against her throat.

Claudine's subordinates looked at each other. They wanted to rescue Claudine but feared that Grace would actually attack her. Their hesitation did not escape Grace's notice.

She knew that they would not listen to her if she hadn't threatened to hurt Claudine.

She wasn't sure if the current situation was safe for her anymore.

All of a sudden, a group of people in suits blocked the entrance of the office.

Everyone was stunned.

Hermione asked, "Did you bring the eggs?"

"Yes." One of the guys carried a box of eggs to Hermione.

Hermione bent down and picked up a few eggs. Then, she walked towards Claudine and threw them at her!

"Ah-" The egg liquid almost caused Claudine to stop breathing after it entered her nostrils.

"Grace, let her go. These people are here to help us. I'll help you to fight back as well. We're not breaking the law. This is self-defence!" Hermione said as she picked up a few more eggs.

After speaking, she pulled Grace's hand down with one hand.

Then, she threw three eggs at Claudine's face with the other hand.

"Let's smash this mad lady with the eggs!"

Claudine and the people who followed her here were surrounded immediately while being pelted with eggs from all the staff members.

The whole box of eggs was gone in an instant.

Hermione clapped her hands to draw the attention of her employees, then she gave them orders, "Listen carefully. Next time, remember to use the same method for those who dare to make troubles in our newspaper office. I'll bear the consequences if anything goes wrong."

"The chief editor is awesome!" The crowd cheered.

Grace was still in a mess. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

She felt that Hermione did not have to do this for her, but she was touched at the same time.

She hadn't expected the chief editor to do this for her.

"Thank you, chief editor."

Hermione nodded at her and turned to address the crowd. "I always emphasize that we must tell the truth while reporting. Also, we've always been using the right way to acquire valuable news. We all knew that Grace was being sexually harassed by Jason when he asked Grace to go to the private clubhouse to interview him. We will learn a lesson from this incident."

"Therefore, no one will be allowed to conduct an interview session alone from today onwards, there must be at least two people. I'll not allow anyone to be sexually harassed anymore."

Upon hearing this, Hermione gained everyone's respect.

In an instant, everyone exclaimed. Then, they whispered among themselves, saying that she was a thoughtful boss.

"Please be quiet."

Everyone remained silent immediately.

Hermione glanced at Claudine and said, "Claudine, you don't have to take revenge on my staff. You can deal with me directly. The newspaper office belongs to me. So, I'm the one who's making the decisions. I'm also the one who assigned tasks to my staff."

"How dare you bully me!" Claudine bit her lip and shouted. She was the First Miss of the Quell family. How could she be bullied by anyone?

She simply could not tolerate this.

Hermione sneered, "How dare you accuse me of bullying you! Would I 'bully' you if you didn't come to make trouble in my newspaper office?" "You-"

She cut the enraged woman off. "I'm giving you a warning now. I'll not let you go easily if you dare make trouble in my office again."

Claudine was in a mess. Her clothes were very dirty, and her vision was blurry from the egg on her face. Despite that, she could clearly see that everyone was looking at her with contempt on their faces. No one had ever humiliated her in this way before. She felt very embarrassed now.

She couldn't bear it anymore, and let out a high pitched scream. "Aaahhhh-"

Upon seeing this, Hermione ordered angrily, "Chase this crazy woman out! She chooses not to believe that her husband is having an affair!"

"Right!"

A few people chased Claudine and her people out of the newspaper office.

The newspaper office was in a mess now.

Hermione looked at Grace. Her face was still covered with the egg liquid and she was very uncomfortable.

"Grace, please go back to take a bath and change into a new set of clothes. I'll ask someone to send you back."

"Chief editor..." Grace wanted to reject the offer, but stopped. She could not stay and continue her work without changing into a new set of clothes, after all.

"It's okay. It's common to be wronged. It's over now. It's partly my fault too for not assigning the task well," Hermione said.

"It has nothing to do with you. Every woman will be sexually harassed in their line of work. I'll be stronger after this incident," Grace reassured her.

"Let me send you home, at least." Hermione couldn't help but feel sorry for her. Then, she said to everyone, "Please help clean up the office. I'll give all of you a bonus today after sending Grace back home." "Chief editor, you don't have to do that."

All of her employees thought that it was not necessary for her to do so.

"Don't sweat it. Grace has been working hard. Also, Mr. Jones has recently decided to invest ten million dollars in our company because he feels that it's hard for me to manage this company alone. Although the bonus is minimal, it's regarded as an employee benefit. If our newspaper office is doing even better, I can assure everyone that you'll have a better incentive. "

"That's great!"

Their morale was high now.

Hermione and Grace got into Hermione's car.

Grace wanted to put a newspaper on the car seat to avoid soiling it, but Hermione shook her head. "It's fine, there's no need for that."

"I'm afraid that the car will be stained." "It's okay. I'll just clean it up." She didn't seem to care about it.

However, Grace still insisted on covering the seat with the newspaper. She had very mixed feelings about all this.

Claudine and Hermione had been betrayed by their husbands before. However, they reacted to it in different ways. Claudine decided to continue deluding herself, whereas Hermione decided to accept the truth.

It was obvious as to who was the stronger one.

Hermione was driving when she briefly glanced at Grace. "Will you be able to avoid this misfortune from happening to you if you had left with Heinz just now?"

Grace was stunned. Then, she smiled and said, "Well, I guess nothing will happen to me today. However, it will happen to me in the future."

Hermione laughed at her answer. "You're right. I really admire you after seeing what you did today. You're brave and clever enough to launch a counterattack."

Grace smiled sheepishly. "In fact, I'm very ashamed." "Don't be ashamed. You'd be a fool if you didn't retaliate."

All of a sudden, someone drove a car at high speed and overtook Hermione's car before braking right in front of her.

Hermione stepped on the brakes immediately.

"Oh my goodness, who's the driver? He sped in such a crazy manner," she said in shock.
