Who Is The Real Boss?

"What do you mean by that?"

Bernice demanded, becoming even angrier.How could Annabel mock her in front of their colleagues? "Exactly what I said,"

Annabel responded with casual indifference.

"Stop denying it.It's a fact that you plagiarized."

Bernice raised her voice, wishing the whole world could hear and know that Annabel was a fraud.

In the beginning, only a few people were privy to the design for Ice and Fire.

Now, everyone in the secretary department heard Bernice.

They began looking doubtfully at Annabel.

Marilyn was famous for her designs, and Annabel was just an unknown secretary who came from the countryside.

How could she know jewelry design? She must have taken the risk to get herself promoted.

Annabel faced the doubtful eyes of her colleagues with a relaxed expression.

"Is that all, Bernice? If there's nothing else, you should go back to work.This madness isn't welcome."

"What? I'm not crazy! I can't believe you dare to even suggest it."

Bernice was furious.

Annabel was still calm.

"Did I say that? You're the one who said crazy."

"You bitch!"

Bernice was so angry that her facial muscles were twitching.She took a few deep breaths and told herself to calm down.
