Chapter 108: Why was he looking for that girl?
Both women stared at each other with equal ferocity in their eyes, leaving no doubt they were about to tear each other apart. The janitor quickly moved back, not wanting to get involved. The other colleagues did the same. Some even took out their phones and began recording. Well, welcome to the world of Gen Z.
"Are you saying I put it in your pocket myself? Ridiculous, Sanya. Ridiculous," Mi Liu said, her chest heaving with anger.
"Well, maybe you did to frame me. Who knows what dirty tricks a disgusting person like you can play to gain the boss’s trust and respect?" Sanya retorted meanly.
Mi Liu’s face turned sour. "I’ve known you for years, and it has never crossed my mind that you were not only a liar but a thief. A thief! How could you do this to me? Don’t you know what this ring means to me? This was my husband’s gift to me when we married," Mi Liu said dramatically, putting on a pitiful face. Her eyes watered and she sniffed.
She was a good actress—better than her, Sanya admitted silently. But she wasn’t going to let some bitch throw dirt on her for something she didn’t do.
By now, their boss, Mr. Bing, had come out of the kitchen and was watching them intently, yet he didn’t interfere. In fact, he looked smug and nonchalant.
The two women broke into an argument, but everyone took Mi Liu’s side. They believed her story and her not-so-convincing acting. Mi Liu’s face had tears slipping from her eyes, ruining her makeup. She looked so frail and weak that some of the male colleagues stood by her side and tried to comfort her.
"Go on. Keep up with your acting. You should have won Best Actress of the Year with this performance," Sanya remarked sarcastically, which made her seemed like the big bully here.
"How could you be so mean? Sanya, I even thought we could be best friends!" Mi Liu cried out before bursting into sobs.
