Chapter 52 Not Protected

“Please, believe me, Ms. Tanner. I didn’t plagiarize anything. Besides, this matter involves you and the company as much as it involves me.” Tensely and resolutely, Christina said, “I’ll apply for a leave today to settle this issue.”

With that, she left.

Gina hesitated about what to do for a moment before she called Nathaniel. In reality, she had always been his spy. Whenever something significant occurred in the company, she would be the first to report it to him.

After the call connected, she briefly explained the situation to him.

In response, Nathaniel said he would call the Public Relations Department.

Upon hanging up the phone, Gina sighed. I hope Christina’s doing the right thing instead of avoiding her responsibility.

When Christina exited Gina’s office, the chatter in the bullpen died down.

After she returned to her desk, she packed her things and was ready to leave.

Her actions caused everyone to think she had been fired. Gradually, the employees’ whispers grew louder.

“What an embarrassment. It’s her fault that Radiant Corporation’s reputation is now tarnished.”

“I’m surprised she’s not protected even though she’s Mr. Hadley’s girlfriend.”

“Is it possible that her other works have issues, too?”

No one in the office was on Christina’s side.

However, she didn’t mind. After she finished cleaning her desk, she left.

“I want a refund!”

“Get out of Radiant Corporation, Christina!”

“You’re a shameless thief?”

Just as Christina arrived at the entrance, she saw a group of people yelling in front of the building.
