His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1150 You Will Be The Next One

Once the image was tarnished, it took a long time to subside the ripple effect it had on business,

clients, relationships, and life as a whole. Isla had been dealing with this both inside and outside the

office ever since the debacle took place at the wine party. This morning was no different. The woman

said to Isla, "Isla, we all know that you have a good relationship with Ms. Xia, but you have to learn to

think about your own good. We really appreciate your unflinching support towards Ms. Xia. But after

what happened, it is extremely embarrassing to stay with her. Even Ms. Xia would be ashamed of

herself throughout her life. It is not an intelligent thing to move on for your own betterment, is it?"

Isla preferred silence than an argument in this case. It had been quite some time that she had been

dealing with this now. She had been addressing the employees time and again, counseling them to

have faith in Sheryl. But what she encountered every time was some argument or advice for her to stay

away from Sheryl.

The woman stopped for a while and then added, "Isla, even if you don't think about yourself, you

should think about your daughter Amanda. She is still a girl. If you continue to support and be with

Sheryl, Amanda will be laughed at by her classmates. You never know what repercussions that may

have on her tender mind." Isla just passed a quick glance at her and heaved a sigh, speaking nothing

at all.

Isla's silence gave the women more courage to speak. She thought Isla was paying attention to her

words. As she found Isla submerged in her thoughts, a sly smile appeared on her face. Thinking it to be

the right time, she placed the trump card very slowly and tactfully. After remaining quiet for a moment

or two, she said, "Isla, let me share the good news with you. The boss of the new company that I have

joined said that he would double your annual salary if you agreed to join them! And he also said..."

Before she could finish her words, a tight slap landed on her cheek.

Smack!

The sound was very crisp and loud, reverberating through the office, astounding not only that woman

but each and every employee. After this slap, the bustling office gradually became quiet.

"Now I understand, Ellie Sun. This is your current job. Your new boss asked you to join back to our

company and poach me! This is what your prime KRA looks like in your new job. Am I right?" Isla

narrowed her eyes to focus her gaze on Ellie Sun as if she would burn her into ashes if she could with

her gaze.

"Isla... Isla, I was only speaking for your own good!" Ellie Sun braved Isla's wrath after overcoming the

initial shock. This kind of a volatile reaction was the last thing that she had expected from Isla who was

otherwise known to be an extremely considerate manager. She could not understand what she had

done to make her become so vicious towards her.

Ellie Sun looked back at Isla with a flabbergasted look. Going by her logic, there was nothing wrong in

what she said. After the debacle at the Tarsan Group wine party, Cloud Advertising Company was no

better than a sinking ship. What she had suggested to Isla would be mutually rewarding for her as well

as the new company. And even if she did not wish to take the offer, she could have turned it down

politely. What was there in it to become so ferocious?

Ellie Sun creased her brows and stared back at Isla while touching her just-slapped cheek tenderly.

Isla's eyes were literally popping out at this point as she said, "If you really want to be good for me,

please don't say these things in Cloud Advertising Company. What this company means to me and

more importantly, what Sheryl means to me are not unknown to you or anyone else in this office. Yet

you choose to slander Sher in front of me? Even in public? Do you think I will spare you for doing that?"

Isla was fuming in anger as she spoke.

There was pin-drop silence in the entire office with only Isla's voice echoing in each and every corner.

All the employees dug their eyes into their respective computer screens; not a single person dared to

even move his or her eyes. Isla's voice echoed in their minds as well. Her stand was clear. And

everybody who felt otherwise could see their fate. It would be no better than Ellie Sun if not worse.

"Isla, don't take my goodwill for ill intent. Actually, even I don't want to come back and poach you. It's

just because the boss of the company I have joined wants you to work there..." Ellie Sun was usually

an adroit person; she never got into any confrontation with her colleagues.

Obviously, she had never dared to offend Isla who had a good relationship with the boss.

But today, Ellie Sun really felt very shameful. And she really thought what she said was not a bad thing

for Isla. After all, Sheryl was moving towards a downfall now. Did Isla really want to follow Sheryl for a

lifetime?

But Isla failed to understand the point. She even slapped Ellie Sun in front of so many people. It was

the first time for Ellie Sun to suffer this kind of humiliation.

Isla heaved a sigh and pressed the area between her two eyes in a manner as if she was speaking to a

thick-skulled idiot. Then she released her eyes and said with a disgusted look on her face, "Your boss

wants me to work there, which is his business. Whether I want to go there or not is my business. Does

this have anything to do with you? Ellie Sun, listen to me carefully. In your opinion, Cloud Advertising

Company may collapse and you want to quit. I understand that. We won't force you to stay. But that

doesn't mean that everyone who is working for this company would want to find a new job like you. But

why are you suggesting me quit? Who gave you the right to even think that you could advise me or any

other loyal employee to leave this company? Do you now understand the reason behind my anger?"

After the slap, the anger in Isla's heart was also dissipated to some extent.

But just as Isla's temper cooled down, Ellie Sun turned red out of humiliation. She could feel sweat

appearing on her forehead, and she could hardly hear the words uttered by Isla. All she could see was

Isla's mouth and her limbs moving.

"OK, Isla, we all know that you just want to perform well in front of Sheryl. Do you think that if you do

so, Charles will treat you differently? Don't be stupid. Sheryl had cuckolded him. Charles must hate her

so much at the moment. If you still stand by her and help her, you'll be the next unlucky one!"

Ellie Sun's voice trembled as she spoke. She sounded somewhat hysterical. Even after speaking so

much, she was still not satisfied. The sound and pain of the slap had perhaps shaken her to the core.

Ellie Sun continued, "Moreover, do you think that Sheryl will be grateful to you? She is having a hard

time to protect herself. She has no time to care about you!"

"Stop!" Isla screamed. She really didn't want to listen to her words anymore. Someone had ever told

her that never try to wake up someone pretending to be asleep. Now Isla understood that the ones she

couldn't wake up were not only those who were pretending to be asleep, but also those who were

daydreaming.

Isla thought in her mind, 'Does she really think if she jumps to a new company, her future will be

prosperous? This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

It takes a lot more than that to succeed. You need to be a kind, careful and loyal no matter where you

are or what kind of high position you are holding in the company. This is what Ellie Sun fails to

understand.

Otherwise, when the real problem arises or you really face the challenge, you will be vulnerable!'

"OK, now that you want to leave, just go out of here now! Anyway, you aren't the only person who left

Cloud Advertising Company in the last few days!" Since Isla couldn't change Ellie Sun's mind, she felt it

futile to share her opinion with her. If Ellie Sun really wanted to quit her job, just let her do that.

Sheryl had said that nothing forcibly done was going to be agreeable in this company. Now Isla thought

Sheryl was right. Even if now they were forced to stay in Cloud Advertising Company at the moment,

they would not put their complete dedication towards their work.

"Okay, I just don't want to stay this company anymore! I'll leave right now! Isla Zhao, wait and see. Let's

see whether you have a promising future in Cloud Advertising Company, or I achieve prosperity in my

new company!" Ellie Sun glanced at Isla with a glare, and then walked towards the door, without

looking back.

At the same time, Sheryl was standing outside the door, listening to the entire conversation between

Isla and Ellie Sun.

The moment when the door was pushed open, Ellie Sun came face to face with Sheryl. They stared at

each other for a moment, and then Sheryl moved aside making way for Ellie Sun to leave. Sheryl's face

was calm without a single trace of remorse or regret.

Ellie Sun was startled to see Sheryl and felt a little awkward. She cast a glance at Sheryl, turned her

face and left as quickly as she could.

Isla stared at Sheryl with astonishment.

"Sher, when did you come here?" Isla didn't expect Sheryl would appear in the company at this time.

She was rather startled to find her in the office. She thought that there was such a serious event just

the day before, Sheryl would have stayed at home for a while!

"Since whatever had to happen has happened already, I can't always hide myself at home. It's so

boring." Sheryl looked at Isla with a pleasant smile and said, "Isla, thank you."

Sheryl's spoke right from the core of her heart. She was really sincerely grateful to Isla. After all, had it

not been for Isla, Sheryl couldn't have imagined what kind of a mess Cloud Advertising Company could

have been right now.
