Chapter 251 Teaching Mr. Tony a Lesson
Sydney bit her lower lip and thought with some uncertainty.
At the head of the table, Julien, whose mood had turned for the better, suddenly sank to the bottom again.
He thought that she called him because she wanted him to explain it to her again.
Unexpectedly, she asked for the recording instead!
Did she want to go back and watch it with Luke or Layden?
Suppressing the irritation in his heart, he coldly replied, "The monitoring is broken."
"Broken?" Sydney was stunned and looked up at the overhead camera. She could not believe that it was broken.
However, she could not ask to check. After all, this was not Skylight.
Just as Sydney did not know what to do, Julien suddenly said, "Come to my office."
"What?" Sydney looked at him in surprise. "What for?"
"If you want to fail to hand in the analytical paper tomorrow, then you don't have to come." After saying that, Julien reached out for his crutch.
Only then did Sydney realize that he knew she did not understand the contents of the meeting, so he wanted to teach her.
However, it surprised her that he would be so kind.
Sydney looked at her notebook, wondering if she should go or not.
She did not want to be alone with him. However, if she did not go, there were many parts she could not understand...
After hesitating for a moment, she finally gritted her teeth and followed. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
They were a cooperative team now. He was probably helping her because he did not want her to hold them back and delay the progress of the project.
At that thought, the pressure in her heart dissipated.
Julien turned his head slightly when he heard the sound of footsteps behind him. Sure enough, he saw the woman's figure catching up to him.
Julien's lips curled up slightly, and his walking speed also slowed down. He waited until he caught up before resuming his normal pace.
The two entered the office one after the other.
The moment the office door closed, a woman came out of the secretary's office next door.
The woman looked at the door of the president's office, took out her cell phone, and dialed a number.
Lyra was at a salon getting her hair done. When she heard the phone ringing in her bag, she took it out and looked at the screen before putting it to her ear. "What is it?"
"Ms. Madden, something happened!" The secretary covered the phone and lowered her voice.
Lyra's eyes glanced around lazily, and her expression turned sinister. "Did a shameless woman try to steal my fiance?"
Ever since she was ordered by Julien not to enter Flint Corporation without an appointment, she bribed one of his secretaries to help keep an eye on the female employees of the company. If any female staff tried to seduce Julien, the secretary would immediately report to her.
The secretary had not contacted her for this period, so she thought that the female staff in Flint Corporation all knew their places. However, reality gave her a slap in the face.
"She's not from our company." The secretary shook her head.
Lyra was still unhappy. "Even if she's not from your company, she's still trying to steal my fiance. Tell me. Who is she?"
'How dare that woman try to take what's mine? I'll let her know what the word 'regret' means!' "I don't know who she is, but I heard President Flint call her Ms. Raines. His attitude toward her is quite gentle. He even stopped walking to wait for her, and then went into the office with her," the secretary replied.
She had only worked in Flint Corporation for less than two months and was still on probation, so she naturally did not know that Julien and Sydney used to be husband and wife.
When Lyra heard the words "Ms. Raines", she immediately knew who it was and stood up from the soft chair. Then, her hair that was being clasped in Mr. Tony's curling iron ripped off, causing her to hiss in pain.
"How dare you pull my hair?" Lyra's face was fierce as she glared at Mr. Tony.
Mr. Tony felt wronged and thought, 'Your hair was ripped off because you suddenly stood up. How is that my fault?'
However, since Lyra was a customer, and a customer with status at that, Mr. Tony did not dare to offend her and could only silently bear the blame. He bowed repeatedly and apologized, "Sorry, Ms.
Madden. I didn't mean to. I'm really sorry. I..."
Smack!
Before Mr. Tony could finish, Lyra threw a fierce slap at him.
The crisp sound made even the secretary on the other end of the phone could not help but shiver, much less
Mr. Tony, who was the one who got hit.
He held his face and looked at Lyra with shock and fear. "Ms. Madden, how could you hit someone?"
"You're the one who dared to rip off my hair. I'm already being benevolent by sparing your life!" Lyra snorted coldly.
'Sydney Raines, that b*tch. It's bad enough that she keeps provoking me.
'Now, even a nobody like him is offending me. Does he have a death wish?!'
"You..." Mr. Tony's eyes turned red with anger at Lyra's vicious words. "You're too much. You were the one who..."
"Okay, okay." At this moment, the store manager came over and gave Mr. Tony a look, signaling for him to stop talking. Then, he smiled apologetically at Lyra." Ms. Madden, he's a newcomer at our store and doesn't know how things work. You're a magnanimous person, so don't hold a grudge against him. Why don't I take over as your hairstylist instead?"
"No!" Lyra refused to let it go. She pointed at Mr. Tony, her voice full of malice. "I want you to fire him and notify the industry that they're not allowed to use him. You're the store manager, so you
should have the ability to do so, right?"
The store manager and Mr. Tony froze.
Mr. Tony's body shook with anger.
'This woman is too hateful!' "Ms. Madden, aren't you going a little too far?" The manager frowned.
Lyra crossed her arms. "Hmph. I don't think I'm going too far. Since he dared to offend me, this is the consequence. If you don't do as I say, don't blame me for..."
"Okay, Ms. Madden. I understand. I'll do as you say." The store manager immediately took a stand.
Mr. Tony looked at him incredulously. "Sir?"
The manager secretly tugged his sleeve.
Mr. Tony understood what was going on and looked away, not saying a word.
Seeing that the manager agreed to her demand, Lyra smiled in satisfaction. "That's more like it."
The manager forced a smile on his face. "In that case, please sit here for a while, Ms. Madden. I'll take him to the finance office to settle his severance pay."
"Go ahead." Lyra lifted her chin smugly.
The store manager took Mr. Tony and left.
In the break room, Mr. Tony had a reluctant expression. "Sir, are you going to fire and bar me from the industry?"
"Of course, not. I saw everything that happened earlier. It's not your fault, so I naturally won't punish you. Just take a short break for the time being. When things settle down, I'll send you to another branch instead. After all, we can't afford to offend that lady. Not only is she the daughter of the Madden family, but she's also the future wife of Flint Corporation's president." The manager sighed.
Mr. Tony smiled bitterly. "I know."
Outside, Lyra sat down again and brought the phone back to her ear. "What is Sydney doing at Flint Corporation?"
The secretary understood that Sydney referred to Ms. Raines, and hastily replied, "It seems she's here for a meeting, but the meeting is already over."
Lyra clenched her phone tightly.
'The meeting is over, but she went into the office with Julien.
'What are they doing in the office?'
The more she thought about it, the more jealous she became. She hung up the call from the secretary and dialed Finn's number instead. "Finn, it's already been several days. Have you figured out how to deal with Sydney?"
She could not wait a moment longer. She wanted Sydney to die this instant!
In the hospital, Finn sat in his consultation room, pushed up his glasses, and said, "Yep. I plan to do it tomorrow."
Excitement instantly surfaced on Lyra's face. "What's your plan?"
