Chapter 241
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
At this moment, Maya badly wanted to chew up Sophia for being big-mouthed.
âIndeed, I donât want to lose my job; but that doesnât mean any job will do. Keeganâs already taken a step back; even if I continue being on my high horse, nobody will side with me if Dahlia doesnât care about me. I donât want to lose my job, but theyâve already given me one. If I continue making a fuss, Iâll be considered ungrateful,â
Maya could only silently endure it all and fake a smile, âThank you, Mr. Kane.â
Sophia still wanted to demonstrate her empathy, so she went to help Maya. However, Maya hurdled over the barrier and shoved her aside.
Sophia stumbled and fell backward. The people around her were worried she would bump into them, so they hurriedly dodged.
Then, Sophia fell right onto the ground in an embarrassing posture. Stella went up and reached out her hand, âGet up, Sophia. The floor is cold.â
Sophia gritted her teeth and said quietly, âThank you, Stella.â
Just as she was about to place her hand into Stellaâs palm, Stella suddenly retracted her hand.
âGet up yourself. Donât become a laughing stock for others.â
Sophia clenched her fists. Then, she braced her palms on the floor and got up.
Since the incident had been âsuccessfullyâ solved, everyone returned to their positions in an orderly manner.
Jackson trudged up to Stella. He smiled. âLong time no see, Stella. You look even more. beautiful than before.â
Stella glanced at him icily.
âEven though he shares a similar face with Keegan, I canât help but shudder every time those eyes of his look at me. It feels like a venomous snake is licking me,â she thought.
