The people that fabricated false rumors about her were heartless, one more after the other.
Once they were targeted, they pretended to be innocent and pitiful, it was annoying to see them. The sounds outside continued.
There was a commotion in the entire design department, Bethan could not even pretend that she did not hear it.
Bethan took a deep breath and strode out. She crossed her hands around her chest and stood by the door, looking at the aggressive group of women. “What? Do you want me to repeat the incident in the pantry once more?”
The leader of the women sneered, “We know that you have huge power supporting you, we cannot offend you, but Bethan, you hurt us badly, shouldn’t you apologize and pay for our medical fees? We don’t want to blow this incident up. Getting the police to arrest you is also a loss for the company. “
“But we cannot just let this matter go like that.”
Bethan crossed her arms around her chest. “Is that so?”
She graciously smiled and took a recording device out from her pocket. “Too bad, when you slandered me, I recorded everything you said. I welcome you to sue me. By then, I will make sure you get your just desserts.”
That woman’s face turned pale. She furrowed her brows. “Yes, we shouldn’t have gossiped behind your back, but it was only this time. It is…”
“Only this time?”
Behind Bethan, Samson, Zayne, and Arianna pushed open the door. The three assistants stood behind Bethan and took out their respective recording devices from their pockets.
“Ever since you all started spreading rumors about Director Bethan, Samson suggested that we take our recording devices everywhere we go to gather evidence.”
Arianna smiled and looked at the group of women. “
You guys definitely bad-mouthed Director Bethan more than once. I have recorded three times here.”
Samson smiled. “I have it twice.”
Zayne, who usually did not talk much, lowered his head and fiddled around with the recording device. “
I have recorded… eight times.”
The group of women was stunned as if they were struck by lightning. Their expressions were extremely ugly.
For the past few days, Bethan has been the main discussion topic of the office. On top of that, Bethan was way too gorgeous and exceptional, so no matter where they were, as long as they got the chance, they would gossip about Bethan.
However…
They would never expect that Bethan and her three assistants would have recording devices on them to record everything down!
Bethan turned back and looked at her three assistants i n surprise. “You guys…”
“Director Bethan.”
Arianna smiled and looked at her. “
You have always treated us well. We don’t like it when they try to spread false rumors about you.”
Bethan was rather moved.
She turned around and condescendingly swept a glance at the group of women who came there looking for justice.
“Between the four of us, we have a total of fourteen recordings. It’s enough to prove that this is not the first time you talk about me, right?”
The surrounding people started discussing among themselves in hushed tones.
“They were the ones who were in the wrong in the first place, how dare they come here to seek justice.”
“They truly have nothing else better to do. What does other people’s personal affairs have to do with them?”
“They are being a blabbermouth. They deserved to be splashed! If it was me, I would have done the same! “
The group of women remained in the same spot, their expressions fluctuating.
She thought they could go there and forced Bethan to compensate and apologize.
They did not expect… that Bethan would be so shady!
When Lucas reached the design department, he saw how the group of women who came to cause trouble was rendered speechless.
He furrowed his brows and walked over. “What are you still standing there for? Leave! Doing things like this during working hours, do you not want your jobs anymore?”
Once Lucas said that the group of women finally left with dejected expressions.
Once they left, Lucas raised a thumbs up at Bethan.
“Who knew that you would protect yourself. Mr. Morrison thought that you might not be able to solve it, so he got me to help you…”
Bethan furrowed her brows. “Brettley got you to come and help me?”
Lucas nodded.
She harrumphed coldly. “Please tell Mr. Morrison, since he decided not to care about me, he should do it more thoroughly.”
He was the one that made such a harsh statement about how he was not going to care about her in the future.
What was the point in getting Lucas to come and help her then?
Lucas wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Bethan, were you guys arguing again?”
Bethan rolled her eyes and him. “What right do I have to argue with Mr. Morrison?”
In the office, Samson secretly opened the drawer and took his phone back while Bethan was still outside.
Once he turned on his phone, a news notification instantly appeared.
(Girl Who Jumped Off Building, Irene Cook, Out of Danger. Press Conference Tomorrow to Reveal the True Colors of the Designer.]
“Did she really say that?”
Brettley fiercely narrowed his eyes upon hearing what Lucas said in the president’s office.
This woman has gotten audacious and unappreciative.
How dare she flare her temper at him?
He only previously said that he did not care what Hailey did to her, yet Bethan told Lucas to tell him that other than her work, she did not want him interfering!
Brettley harrumphed coldly, “I won’t bother her then.”
Irene was going to hold a press conference tomorrow. He did not believe that without his help, Bethan would be able to deal with this matter properly.
In the evening, once Bethan exited the main entrance of the office, she was surrounded by a group of reporters.
“Ms. Bethan, did you know about Irene Cook jumping off a building?”
“You made a young person in her prime jump off a building, do you feel guilty?”
“Irene is going to hold a press conference tomorrow, will you be there?”
“Could you give a statement regarding Irene’s incident?”
Facing the reporter’s questions, Bethan was calm. “I will be there tomorrow for the press conference.
Irene said she wanted to reveal the designer’s true colors, I would like to know as well, what my true colors are.”
Then, a black BMV stopped in front of Morrison Tower’s entrance.
Bethan gracefully waved to the reporters and got in the car.
In the car, Theo calmly looked at her. “I ‘ve already said I could pick you up from the back door, why did you have to let them see you here?”
Bethan smiled and put on her seatbelt. “I did it on purpose. How could I make them more arrogant if I did not declare war on them?”
Theo chuckled. “You’re truly an enigma.”
Then, he drove toward Swan Lake Residences.
When she got out of the car, Theo passed a box to her. “My parents have already taken this morning’s flight and left Banyan City. My mother got me to pass this to you. She said you might find it useful.”
Bethan furrowed her brows and accepted it. She thanked him and went upstairs.
