Chapter 107
"Where’s Yarn?" Avery would not let Gia go. She looked around and shouted, "Hurry up and come out to confront me. Let’s make things clear in person!"
Everyone turned to look for Gia. How would Gia dare to show her face in front of the camera? She crouched down and almost ran under the table. She escaped! She escaped into the bathroom and even locked the door from the inside.
In the reception hall, Avery waited for a long time but did not see Gia. She could not be bothered to waste time here and said coldly, "Yarn dares to act but lacks the courage to admit her mistakes and apologize in person. It’s truly disappointing." Her gaze was like a knife as it swept across the faces of everyone present. "What about you guys? Do you want to apologize?"
No one dared to look her in the eye. No one dared to resist stubbornly. When the first person walked out and bowed to apologize to Maria, the others also stepped forward to apologize, saying, "Maria, we were blind to accuse you of using a high-quality imitation. I’m sorry!" and "It’s our fault. Can you forgive us?"
Maria had never experienced so many people—richer, more powerful, and more important than her—apologizing to her. She could only instinctively say, "I forgive you."
Everyone heaved a long sigh of relief. Avery asked Maria, "Do you still want to intern here?"
Maria, still half-asleep, jolted awake and responded reflexively, "No! I don’t want to intern here, not even if it means death!"
Avery nodded and looked at a seemingly supervisor in the studio. "Maria is an intern. Do you need to go through the resignation procedures?"
The other party said carefully, "Maria signed an internship contract. The company can let her leave at any time, and she can leave at any time. As long as she completes the handover, there’s no need for any compensation."
