A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure

Chapter 443: This Woman Is Indeed Tough

Someone asks curiously, "The dish is made by Ms. Lily?"

"You don't even need to ask. It's so obvious." The female employee rolls her eyes at her colleague and

gossips, "This Lily made waves when she was at the Smith Group. I heard that she is very close with

Mr. Smith."

"What kind of man is Mr. Smith? Do you think he likes her? She probably failed to hook up with Mr.

Smith and changed the target to David. Mr. Smith trusts him so much, and he has a high status in the

Group."

"She's so scheming." Someone exclaims and begins to talk about conspiracy theory. "Hey, do you think

she has started retaliation against the star because she is too close to Mr. Smith?"

"It must be!"

"I heard that Ms. Lily wants to contract with the starlet as the spokesperson for our company's new

product with three million. Three million for a three-minute promotional video? She thinks a star is so

cheap?"

"I also think that she has gone too far. She is so mean, why not do it herself?"

"Hey, speaking of which, although Ms. Lily is a scheming bitch, she's pretty and has big boobs!"

"..."

In the office, a few people are discussing without scruples and laughing loudly.

No one notices Lily coming in at all.

It is Lily who reaches out and knocks on the glass door, attracting their attention.

Noticing that when the people in the office see her, they seem to be strangled by a reaper and can no

longer speak, she just smiles faintly and says, "Sorry for the disturbance."

The office is deathly silent and the atmosphere is awkward.

Lily pretends not to have heard it and mentions a few file names, "Who has these files?"

"Ms. Lily... I have them." A woman in a black and white plaid dress stutters while ferreting for the

documents and hands them to Lily with trembling hands.

"Thank you." Lily's voice is gentle. She takes the documents, but she is not in a hurry to leave.

She looks at the woman in front of her, who lowers her head, with a kind expression and asks, "From

what I heard, it seems that you are the one calling me a scheming bitch. You said that I did something

bad to the star and that I have big boobs ... right?"

"I... I'm sorry, Ms. Lily." The woman lowers her head and says in a trembling voice, "We were joking."

Lily's face darkens and her voice is cold. "So leaders can be joked on as you wish?"

The woman doesn't even dare to breathe.

Lily looks up and sweeps her sharp gaze across the people in the office. As long as anyone lowers

their heads or looks around, she will know that these people are the ones gossiping about her.

"Do your work during office hours. If you want to relax, go to the bathroom for the chat." She says

angrily, "You guys are laughing loudly in the office and speaking ill of me. I'm impressed!"

She checks the woman's employee ID and pouts, "What a coincidence. Last time, it is you who

gossiped about me in the elevator, and this time, it is you again. What, gossip is everything in your

life?"

"No, Ms. Lily." The woman breaks out in cold sweat and is anxious. "I was so ignorant. I didn't

understand the rules. Please spare me."

Lily smiles, "An ignorant people like you has been recruited to HS and even becomes a team leader of

the planning department. Are you suggesting that the human resource manager and your line manager

are not as competent as you?"

"I didn't mean that..." The woman doesn't expect Lily to be so eloquent, and she can't come up with any

words.

Lily doesn't look at her. Her sharp gaze sweeps through the crowd and points the people who spoke ill

of her in the elevator that day. "Since you can't keep your mouths shut, then work in the customer

service department and stay there for a year."

"Ms. Lily, we were wrong. Please forgive us." Each one pointed by Lily becomes panic.

They know that the working hours in the customer service department are long and they will be paid

much less money. That place is like hell.

If they were to work in the customer service department for a year and then come back to the planning

department, there wouldn't be vacancies for them.

Lily stands there with her arms crossed. She looks kind, but her imposing manner is compelling.

"Option one, resign from HS. You will receive no compensation or severance documentation. Option

two, work in the customer service department for 14 months."

Looking at their pale faces, Lily is still calm. She asks indifferently, "Which one?"

After freezing for a long time, they choose the second option.

Without compensation or severance documentation, they are basically unable to find a job in the

industry. If Lily tells the other small companies, it will mean that they can't survive.

Lily says, "Pack up your things and give over your current work to your colleague now. I'll call your

department manager to inform him. Your work at the customer service department starts in the

afternoon."

After she finishes speaking, she turns around.

When the people in the office see that Lily has left, they all heave a sigh of relief like they've been

saved from hell.

However, before they completely calm down, Lily suddenly turns around and comes back, scaring

them.

Lily glances at them and says, "As for the rest, don't think you can get away with it. If you want to

gossip about leaders, talk in a quiet place and don't take up your working hours."

"The quarterly bonus and year-end bonus for everyone in the planning department this year are

cancelled, including your manager's. If you're upset, just resign and find a better company with your

talent. I won't stop you."

After saying this, she leaves.

The office is still silent though Lily has left for a long time. Everyone looks at each other and all they

can see are frightened look and ashen faces.

This woman who worked for the Smith Group before is indeed tough.

After this, no employees in HS dare to disrespect her and make her the object of any jokes.

After Lily takes the documents back to the office, Ella hurries over. "Sorry, Ms. Lily, I went out for some

errands and didn't have time to tell you."

"It's fine." Lily doesn't take it to heart and asks her, "Have you communicated with the actress from

Brilliant Media?"

Ella immediately has a bad look. She says helplessly, "Yeah, but she insisted on 10 million, not a penny

less. She said if you won't agree, then go find someone else."

Lily is not angry, she just says, "I've read the script and it is what I want. With a good director and

editor, the actors and actresses in the movie will absolutely be popular. Won't popularity earn her

money?"

"I think the same as you, Ms. Lily." Ella says, "But now, actresses want nothing but money, and HS Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

didn't perform well in the last few years. Many actresses don't dare to take risks."

Lily sighs and takes the documents of the actresses, "I'll pick another one."

Ella waits by her side. She looks at Lily, and as if she has discovered something, she suddenly says,

"Ms. Lily, I don't think it's necessary. You're the perfect candidate."

"Are you joking?" Lily looks up at her and is shocked, "I don't know how to act."

"It's just a three-minute short video. You just do whatever the director says." As Ella speaks, she takes

out a mirror and hands it to Lily.

Ella looks at Lily seriously, "Ms. Lily, I'm telling the truth. The story is composed by you. The best

female lead must be you. Look at your facial features. They will fit with any kind of makeup."

Lily waves her hand, "You're kidding me. I can't."

"You should give it a try even if you can't." Ella is still trying to persuade her, "I know that you've

watched many young directors' works these past few days, but you're not interested. The preferred

director in your heart is Director Jarvis."

"But you know what Brilliant Media means. Now that everything except the female lead is ready, if you

fill the vacancy, it will save you three million. And we don't have to look for new directors when we

arrive at City L tomorrow."
