After the woman finished speaking, she caused an uproar around her.
Everyone now understood the relationship between Maisie and Tom.
They were siblings! This was completely different from what they had guessed and seen online.
However, Maisie’s last name was Davenport while Tom’s last name was Lowe, so no one would think that they were siblings.
At this moment, Maisie simpered and got close to the woman.
“Mommy, don’t scold Tom.You know he loves me the most.It’s just that this time, someone was trying to stab us from the back so that’s why he couldn’t guard against it.” Maisie explained.
At this moment, she was like a docile lamb.Her soft tone was completely different from her aggressive and overbearing attitude just now.
“Plus, Tom didn’t know I came to interview for the design department back then.It’s all because you guys thinkI’m too childish and you think I can’t join a professional firm.So that’s why I asked someone to change my identification details so I could come here for an interview.”
After hearing Maisie’s explanation, the woman looked affectionate and proud.
“Yes, you’re right.My princess is the best.You joined this company all by yourself.”
After she said that, the woman peered at Laura, who was utterly shocked.
“However, I guess someone is lacking in wit, so that’s why they said you joined the company through connections”
“Even if I joined this company through connections, s o what? One has to have the connections to even attempt it.”
Maisie looked at Laura disdainfully and continued, “Laura, now you know what relationship I have with Mr.Lowe.
“So? Are you surprised? Are you shocked?”
Laura’s stiff palm was still clutching her face, and she was looking at Maisie who was beaming.She was flabbergasted.
However, she did not dare to utter a single word to retort.
Even though she had a million guesses in her head before this, she would never have thought that Maisie and Tom were siblings.
Laura was struck dumb.
However, more than anything else, there was envy and jealousy in her eyes.She was so jealous! Maisie was Tom’s little sister.
Bill, who was cowering in a corner, was also shocked t o the core.
He thought he had found out about Tom and Maisie’s improper relationship but he did not expect that they were family! They were siblings! Just now, the police also said that they wanted to look into Laura because one of the cases she was involved i n was the embezzlement of public funds.
Bill was also involved in this, so he could not run from this now.
Laura was brought away by the police soon after, while Tom and his mother also followed the police back to the station to help with the investigation.
When they left, Tom turned around to call out to Bill, whose face was turning pale.
Bill’s body turned cold as he knew he was finished.
Maisie watched as Laura was brought away.
Finally, she let out along sigh of relief.
“That felt good!”
After she said that, she stopped smiling and walked to Ava’s side with a sincere and apologetic look.
“Ava, you won’t blame me for lying to you, right?”
Ava came back to her senses.
“Of course not.”
When Maisie got this answer, she smiled.
“Ava, I’m s o thankful that you hired me back then.Otherwise, Tom would’ve made fun of me for being a child who could never grow up.”
“Maisie, ah, I’m sorry, Miss Lowe, I really didn’t expect you to be Mr.Lowe’s sister.”
“Miss Lowe, I hope you’ll forgive us if we did anything to offend you back then.”
“Yeah, we didn’t know you were Mr.Lowe’s sister.If we did, we wouldn’t have said all that nonsense.”
Fiona, Kendra, and some other colleagues walked over to apologize to Maisie.
However, Maisie merely gave a small smile and grabbed Ava’s hand.
“Ava, I’m in a good mood today so let me buy you dinner.Oh, right, you can call your boyfriend to come along too.I don’t mind being the third wheel.”
Maisie joked and skipped away with Ava in tow.
Those people who were standing in the same spot were panicking.
They were worried that Maisie would ask Tom to fire all of them if she was dissatisfied with them.
However, Maisie did not tell Tom anything.
The next day, she came to work as usual and she was still Ava’s assistant.She was happy with this position.
Now, the colleagues who previously ignored her would all smile at her flatteringly.
They all wanted to build a personal relationship with Maisie but aside from work, Maisie would not interact with the other colleagues.
Her only friend in the company was Ava.
A few days later, Maisie told Ava that Laura was going to be charged.
Her crimes from before were proven to be true, and she also embezzled public funds with Bill.
Hence, Bill would be going behind bars as well.
Now that Bill was behind bars, the design department was in a mess.
The position of head of the design department was empty and someone had fo fill in the position.
All of the old employees were eager to give it a go as they wondered who would be the new head.
Fiona was very confident.
She had the most experience in this office and she had also managed a few huge projects for the company.
In terms of seniority and achievements, she would definitely be i n the running.
Right now, as she was happily listening to the others complimenting her, someone rained on her parade all of a sudden.
“Ava, I dare say that you’ll rise above others in this fight for the position of department head.You’ll definitely get that position.”
Maisie’s firm tone went into the ears of Fiona and her group.
Even though it sounded unpleasant and Fiona was pissed, she did not dare to go and talk back to Maisie.
Everyone knew that Maisie was their boss Mr.Lowe’s sister.
At the same time, they also knew that Maisie and Ava were close.
Maisie was saying that Ava would be able to get the position of the head of the design department and it was basically a done deal.
Fiona was feeling pissed but suddenly, she heard Ava speak with a self-deprecating laugh.
“Actually, I like my current position.I’ll have to manage so many things as the head.Someone as lazy and carefree as me won’t be able to get that position.”
Fiona chuckled in disdain when she heard what Ava said.She felt that Ava was just pretending.
However, Maisie did not say anything.
Instead, she just nodded thoughtfully.
During the lunch break, Ava and Maisie went for lunch together as they chatted.
When Fiona saw them leaving the office, she slowly stood up while spitting out complaints.
“A certain someone said they don’t want the position but I know how badly they want it in their heart.”
Kendra, who was at the side, pursed her lips together i n dissatisfaction.
She was extremely envious of Ava.
“Yeah, she has the president’s sister backing her up so she’ll definitely prosper in this company.Fiona, it’ll b e difficult for her to stay here from now on.”
