Chapter 23
Propping up her chin with her hand, Tina looked mockingly at Sharon, a smirk full of scoms
spreading across
ass her lips.
âSharon, you and I are worlds apart. Look at me. Iâm topâdrawer material in both the Stanley family and Bisney Entertainment, Iâm surrounded by the best of everything. And you? Even if you racked your brain and tried every trick in the book, youâd only manage to scrape by at the bottom. You may have lasted four years in my house, but you wonât last a few hours even in the cleaning department here. So, cherish it,â said Tina. Actually, Sharon never had a deep grudge against Tina, even letting Tina walk all over her. But Tina just couldnât stand her. After her divorce, Sharon rubbed elbows with some very impressive prople, which was a slap in Tinaâs face. She used to disregard Sharon as nothing, but now Sharon was stealing the limelight with her unique talents. It was an insult to Tina, and she wouldnât allow it. She aimed to knock Sharon back down, making her life even more miserable than before.
Across the room, the cleaning supervisor noticed the two standing there and called out. âWhatâs the holdâup? Get over here!â
Smugly, Tina said, âLook at you, mistaken for a janitor without even needing confirmation. Good luck with that she wanted to beliule Sharon further, but since the supervisor had said new hires had to go to their departments for orientation, she had to wave and leave.
As Tina turned to go, Sharon suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist. âThis is your workspace,â she said, emphasizing the word âyourâ
Tinaâs brow twisted in disbelief as she was shocked that Sharon could take such a low blow. She couldnât care less about that she was the new employee and raised her hand to slap Sharon,
The new janitorial employee, Tina Stanley, stay behind, and everybody else, please donât interfere with the work, the supervisor interjected, eyeing the two âWhoâs Tina!
Tina looked in disbelief at the supervisor, her hand freezing in midâair. âYouâve got it wrong, Iâm here to be a live streamer.
The supervisor raised the roster. âTina Stanley, cleaning department.â
âThis is a mistake. Tina blurted out, brushing past Sharon in a buff to find the manager upstairs âWhat are you trying to pull? Sending me to the cleaning department? Iâll sue you if you donât fix this, she shouted angrily.
What are
are you planning on suing us for? Before the manager could reply, Alanna walked in leisurely
When Tina caught sight of Alanna, it clicked. âYouâre in cahoots with Sharon just to make a fool out of me, arenât you?â
Alanna curled her lips in disdain. Think you can play the boss with those smarts! If Sharon hadnât been so patient, youâd have bitten the dust a long time ago, she thought to herself
This is just a normal work arrangement. How could it be what you said?â Alanna wouldnât admit it out loud, but her expression clearly showed she meant to embarrass Tina.
Tina saw through her immediately and was fuming. You just wait. Iâll get Edwin on you?â
âWell, weâre in a society governed by the rule of law. Even Edwin canât just do anything as he pleases, Alanna snapped, tossing the contract in Tinaâs face. âBesides, you agreed to go to the cleaning department and signed the contract yourself. So, why are you getting all up in arms and playing the victim now? Who do you think the judge would believe?â
Tina took the contract and saw the word âjanitorâ written in the position field. âHow did this happentâ
âWe have a recording Alanna sneered. âWhen the legal team came over to walk you through the signing, they were super clearâtold you to read the contract carefully. The terms are so plain and obvious that a toddler could get it. Whatâs the matter, Ms. Stanley, too complex for you?â
Tina could understand the contract, of course, but she just hadnât given it a close read. She was dead set on being a live streamer and was sure that was what the contract was for.
However, she ended up being a janitor. Just minutes before, she had been dissing Sharon, saying that was all Sharon was good for, and now, she was the one wearing the cleaning gloves. Buming with embarrassment, Tinaâs face twisted in anger. âI quitâ She tossed the contract aside and stormed
âBetter think it through, Ms. Stanley. If you throw away your contract with Hisney Entertainment, other companies might not be so interested in you later,â Alanna said lazily while sipping her coffee. âBut then again, with someone to take care of you, youâre not afraid of starvation. Or, you could always marry some man and live as a parasite. Though, such women are oben looked down upon for being worthless, arenât theyr
The word âworthlessâ hit a nerve with Tina. She often used it to humiliate Sharon. âAm I on the same level as Sharon now! Sharon is really worthless. I canât possibly be on her level,â she cursed inwardly.
Brimming with anger and frustrations, Tina slammed the door on her way out.
âMs. Jensen, this doesnât seem right. After all, âTina is the linde sister of the boss of Genesis Group⦠Arenât we sort of offending Edwin here?â The manager caine over uncauly,
11:00 AM
Chapter 23
Alannaâs lips curled into a disdainful sneer. âAs if he hasnât crossed us before!â She wasnât at all afraid of offending that jerk.
the thought of that jerk Edwin getting a taste of his own medicine brightened Alannaâs mood a bit.
After bolting out of the Bisney Entertainment building. Tins jumped into her car. Thinking about the humiliation she just endured, she started. hitting and screaming in her car in frustration. But no amount of venting could diminish the hatred simmering in her heart. She clutched the steering wheel tightly. âSharon, you dare humiliate me? Just you wait.â
After her venting, she pulled out her phone and dialed Claraâs number. âClara, find me the number of the wife of Risney Entertainmentâs boss, and make it quick.â
âWhy do you want her number?â Clara asked on the other end.
âDo I even need to explain? I want Sharon dead!â Tina screamed into the phone, unable to control her rage
âIf itâs for that⦠Iâm afraid itâs pointless,â Clara said.
Tina was eagerly waiting for the bossâs wife from Bisney Entertainment to retaliate against Sharon on her behalf, and Claraâs words left her both puzzled and angry.
Just as she was about to lose it, Clara sent her a piece of news. It was an announcement issued under the name of the boss of Bisney Entertainment. Seeing the announcement, Tina gasped in shock âHow could this be? She hadnât even got her revenge for the earlier humiliation, and now she wis stunned again.
