Chapter 2720
Regina, clutching her recorder and scribbled notes, marched back to the office only to be
summoned by the boss the moment she stepped through the door.
âI hear you've been at it again with the veterans in the office.â The boss didnât even look up from his
paperwork as he spoke.
Regina, baffled, retorted, âWhat do you mean âat it againâ? They're the ones who've been on my
case, okay? You handed me this mission impossible, and I nailed the interview. Isn't that impressive?
Just because I'm the rookie, I don't even get a pat on the back, but instead, I have to put up with
their sarcasm?â
âLook at you, firing off ten words for every one say! I'm not saying you should roll over and take it,
but those folks are your seniors. You could show a little respect. Ever heard of playing nice? Instead,
you have to kick off a storm right in the middle of the office, and they come running to me with
complaints, even recording the way you mocked them. How am I supposed to deal with that?â
Regina couldn't help but laugh at the antics of her slick male colleagues.
Yeah, those reporters sure love their recorders, always ready to capture the moment. Too bad
Regina hadn't caught their snide comments in her recorder.
"So how do you want to resolve this? You expect me to apologize to them?â
âIs that any way to talk to me? If you hadn't let your temper get the better of you, I woul be in this
bind.â
Regina snorted in disdain and crossed her arms. âOh, so I'm the one making things. difficult for you,
huh? You turn a blind eye to those seniors bullying the newbie, but the second they record me
standing up for myself, you jump in. Boss, you're a real disappointment.â
Regina had thought this boss, who had helped her before, would have her back through. thick and
thin. Turns out he was just a pushover.
Her words seemed to hit a nerve.
âEnough. Drop the interview; let them handle the follow-up.â
"Why the hell should 1? I disagree! I'm the one who landed that interview. How many times. did you
guys reach out to Dahlia with no reply? Why should I hand over my work after I've done all the
legwork? That's not how it works!â
"Hmph, it doesnât matter if you agree or not. I'm the one who assigns the tasks. I've already given
you a big enough break by entrusting you with such an important assignment. You've got other fish
to fry. Now, get out. There's a meeting later, and don't forget to send the materials to your
colleagues in advance.â
Ing-50.
Chapter 2720
Regina stood rooted to the spot until the boss looked up with a glance that clearly said, âWhy are
you still here?â Only then did she exhale sharply. âJust don't regret this, boss.â
âWhat do I have to regret?â
As Regina exited, her silhouette was as defiant as ever. She was Regina Tanner, after all, and nothing
could force her to bow.
Stepping out, she made a beeline for the desk of the male colleague who had provoked her earlier,
slamming the stack of notes she had gathered onto his desk with a thud.
âYou're quite the sly fox, arenât you? All those years in journalism sure taught you some tricks.
Recording a spat with a coworker, are you that scared I'll outshine you? But don't worry, consider
this interview a gift from me. Just don't expect me to play nice in the
future. Good luck!â
