Luna forced a smile and continued to feed him. “If something similar happens again in the future, I hope Mr. Lynch won’t do this again. Firstly, I’m just an ordinary employee, and I don’t need the CEO to protect me. Number two, even if I got hurt, you can just give me a few days’ leave or even monetary compensation.

Luna shot Alice a glare. “I ‘d rather get hurt than be misjudged for something that wasn’t even my intention.“
