DreameNovelChapter 41 You Just Wait Isabella had never been treated like this before. She struggled and cursed. "Joey, how dare you hit me! I swear I'll make your dad die in prison!" Joey beceven angrier at the mention of her father, and her grip tightened. "Since your parents don't know how to raise a child, I'll gladly help them out." Isabella was no match for Joey, being shorter and pampered since childhood. A few minutes later, her face was swollen from the beating.
Through gritted teeth, Isabella said, "Joey, just you wait!" With that, she covered her face and ran out.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJoey looked at her slightly reddened palm, the hatred in her eyes not diminishing. The trouble Isabella brought was far from being offset by a few slaps.
She had worked hard to climb out of the mud, and she wouldn't allow Isabella to push her back in.
Joey straightened herself up and returned to her office.
Half an hour later, Dominic rushed in and knocked on her desk.
"Secretary Blackwood, President Winters is looking for you. Miss Vale has complained that you hit her." He looked at her with concern. "Mrs. Winters Jr. is also here. It doesn't look good. Be careful." Joey calmly stood up from her seat and said, "I won't let anyone pin something onthat I didn't do." With that, fearlessly, she walked toward the President's office.

Joey is upset withbecause of the incident with Miss Sinclair, and she hitto vent her anger. I don't want to cause Secretary Blackwood any trouble. She once donated blood for me, and I can't forget that favor." Joey almost burst out laughing. What a pity that Isabella didn't pursue a career in acting with such a performance.
Joey glanced around the room and calmly asked, "What happened to Miss Vale's face? What does it have to do with me?" Mrs. Winters Jr. glared at her in anger. "Joey, do you think you can get away with hitting someone and then denying it? How can a woman like you be the Chief Secretary? Sebastian, I command you to fire her immediately and make her apologize to Isabella!" Joey sneered. "Did you actually seehitting her?"

"If I recall correctly, you graduated from a prestigious university. You studied law. As a law school graduate, even if it was a long tago, you should still remember the NO basid laws and regulations. To convict someone, you need testimonies and evidence. So, may I ask, besides Isabella, did anyone else seehitting her? Is there any evidence that the slap on her face was from me? If not, then please, Mrs. Winters, do not falsely accuse the innocent." Mrs. Winters Jr. was shocked. When did this woman becso sharp-tongued, even subtly mocking her for being old?
She gritted her teeth in anger.
"Sebastian, look at her! Is this how Chief Secretary is supposed to act? She's no different from a madwoman in a bar!" "Mrs. Winters, let's stick to the facts and not resort to personal attacks. Otherwise, I will take legal means to protect myself."
Sebastian watched the two of them argue, his brows furrowed. He knew his mother's imposing aura wasm strong and overwhelming. Most people would pale in comparison to her. But Joey was like an angry little wildcat. If he didn't teach her a lesson, he didn't know what trouble she might cause. Sebastian's cold gaze turned toward Joey. His tone brooked no argument. "Apologize to her!"
