Chapter 98 Nora Was Bullied
Apex Technologies Corporation.
Terry didn't come to work today - he's in the hospital.
But Giselle and Eleanor showed up.
Giselle was supporting the furious Eleanor, her eyes all red.
When Amelia saw them, her eyelid twitched. She quickly ran back to find Nora. "Nora, Mrs. Reed is here!"
Nora was working on her computer. When she heard this, she looked up to see Giselle and Eleanor walking straight toward her.
"It's you!" Giselle pointed her finger at Nora.
Eleanor walked over with a dark expression and slapped Nora hard across the face!
Nora grabbed her hand, but still got hit on the edge of her face. She covered her face and looked coldly at Eleanor.
"You still dare to come to the company?" Eleanor's eyes were full of hatred as she tried to hit Nora again.
A strong arm reached over from the side, holding back Eleanor's hand and pulling Nora behind him - it was Philip.
He looked at Eleanor with a serious expression. "Mrs. Reed, what are you doing?"
"Xingzhou, why are you protecting this woman?" Eleanor was even angrier seeing Philip protecting Nora!
This young man was the son-in-law she had her eye on!
"Philip, don't protect her!" Bianca came over to pull Philip away.
Giselle cried out in accusation, "That's right, Philip, you shouldn't defend this woman. Do you know what she's done?"
Last night, Terry was sent to the hospital with a broken leg.
The Reed family was in complete chaos.
After questioning him, Terry told Giselle that he had asked Nora out last night to talk about the shop, wanting her to hand it over and leave, but then he ran into robbers and was beaten and hospitalized.
Eleanor felt this incident was connected to Nora. How could it be such a coincidence? Terry asks Nora out, and he gets beaten?
Eleanor believed those thugs were called by Nora to deliberately get revenge on her son!
So today she came to Apex Technologies Corporation to make a scene.
Giselle thought the same way. Her husband was beaten like this - she wanted to ruin Nora's reputation and make her hand over the shop and get out of Apex Technologies Corporation!
Giselle twisted the truth and said, "This woman seduced my husband Terry. Yesterday she privately asked him to meet at a resort for dinner, and as a result, Terry was robbed and beaten and hospitalized!"
Giselle spoke especially loudly. This story was something the Reed family had agreed on - they would say Nora tried to seduce Terry. This kind of slander would be too much for any woman to handle, no matter how capable.
They came today to teach Nora a lesson!
First, to vent Terry's anger.
Second, to get her out of Apex Technologies Corporation.
Although they weren't actually sure if those robbers had anything to do with Nora.
"Impossible!" Philip's face turned cold. He didn't believe at all that Nora would seduce Terry. On the contrary, Terry was always staring at Nora with lustful eyes - clearly, his intentions weren't pure.
"Philip, she's a vixen, stop protecting her!" Bianca didn't like Philip protecting Nora. She was so angry that she was grinding her teeth.
Nora stood behind Philip. After watching for a while, she finally understood.
They came here deliberately to cause trouble.
Otherwise, they could have just asked her into the office to talk, but instead, they made a scene outside.
They wanted all the colleagues to see.
Sure enough, to make her hand over the shop obediently, they'd use any dirty trick!
Nora laughed coldly and looked at Giselle. "What evidence do you have to prove I asked Terry to meet at the resort yesterday?"
"Terry said so himself!" Giselle glared at her.
Nora scoffed, "You believe whatever he says? Are you really that gullible?"
Giselle's expression changed. "Who are you calling gullible?"
Eleanor was already shouting at Nora in fury, "If we don't believe Terry, should we believe you? If you hadn't asked him to that godforsaken place last night, how would he have gotten his leg broken..."
A broken leg.
Nora thought what perfect karma!
Broken well, broken wonderfully!
"What does his broken leg have to do with me? If you want to settle scores with someone, go find those robbers." Nora looked innocent.
Eleanor didn't listen to her at all, pointing at her nose and cursing: "You're a vicious woman!"
Colleagues around them all looked over.
Eleanor scolded: "Our Reed family kindly let you work at our company, and you seduced Terry, causing trouble in Terry's marriage, and even caused him to break a leg. You're a vixen, a natural slut! Nora, I'm telling you today, our Reed family's company doesn't welcome you. Get out!"
When she said these things, Nora wasn't angry at all.
But Philip was angry.
He took Nora's hand and said to Eleanor, "That's impossible, Mrs. Reed. Nora isn't that kind of person. Terry is the one with problems. I often see him harassing other female colleagues at the company. He's the indecent one."
Philip was from the Thompson family - he didn't need to be afraid of the Reed family. He just said it straight out.
Amelia wanted to applaud him.
Other female colleagues looked at him admiringly - Philip was so manly!
"Philip!" Bianca pulled his hand, furious inside. Why did he keep helping Nora? Did he like Nora?
"Bianca, stop pulling me." Philip glanced at her, a cold glint in his eyes.
Bianca was scared by that look and awkwardly withdrew her hand.
Seeing Philip like this, Eleanor understood even more clearly - Philip didn't like her daughter, he liked that bitch Nora!
Because of this, she couldn't keep Nora around!
Otherwise, if Philip married her, wouldn't Nora be above them?
Eleanor said coldly, "No matter what, today I need to see Nora leave Apex Technologies Corporation. This is our Reed family's company. I don't welcome people with such bad character."
"Really?" Nora looked at Eleanor. "Apex Technologies Corporation really can't tolerate people with bad character?"
As she spoke, she glanced at Hazel.
Hazel was hiding in the back watching the show, feeling quite pleased, but when she caught Nora's sharp gaze, she immediately hid.
"Yes!" Eleanor shouted.
"Fine, I've recorded that statement, Mrs. Reed. In the future, if there really is someone with bad character, I hope you'll remember what you said and kick her out of Apex Technologies Corporation!" Nora took out her phone - she had actually recorded everything they just said.
Eleanor frowned, her eyes sharp. "Nora, are you really stupid or just pretending? The one I want to kick out is you!"
"Shameless!" After Giselle finished cursing, she felt very satisfied.
Bianca also smiled smugly.
After today, Nora definitely wouldn't have the face to stay at Apex Technologies Corporation!
A woman's reputation is most important. Now that her reputation is ruined, if she stays, she'll be drowned in malicious gossip every day.
"Why aren't you packing up and leaving!" Seeing Nora still not gathering her things, Bianca pushed her.
She never wanted to see this bitch again!
The farther away, the better.
