“But you can’t escape the consequences!”
Quentin had no sympathy for such people. They were adults with the ability to make their own decisions and should be responsible for their foolish actions.
If he couldn’t handle this matter, what would happen to Charlotte? She would be condemned by everyone, despised, and possibly fall into depression.
If it had been any other ordinary girl, she might have already been driven to despair.
What Quentin demanded now was for him to atone for his sins, not to escape his responsibilities. He still had to pay for his foolishness and malice.
Mekhi swallowed hard. “Tell me what to do, and I’ll do it.”
He wanted to live.
“First, post a message on your social media account to clarify everything.”
“Second, come with me to Spicurity Group and expose the mastermind behind this.”
“Reveal her true face in front of everyone.”
When he heard that Bella was the target, Mekhi hesitated for a moment but then nodded firmly. “Alright, I agree!”
If it weren’t for Bella, he wouldn’t have been implicated. Now that things had gone wrong, Bella was mainly responsible. He didn’t want to ruin his life for her.
At Spicurity Group, the marketing department office was bustling with activity.
Mr. Lewis, having caught wind of the situation, came out and saw Bella and Charlotte confronting each other again. Anger surged through him.
“What are you doing? What trouble are you causing now? Isn’t it enough? You’re making a scene!”
He was genuinely furious this time. “If you want to fight, do it outside! Don’t come back to work here again!”
Mr. Lewis’s roar silenced everyone in the office.
Bella quickly stepped forward, looking pitiful as she apologized.
“Mr. Lewis, I didn’t want to argue with her. She’s the one who insisted on causing trouble…”
“And I’m only thinking about the company’s reputation. After all, some people have brought shame to our entire Spicurity Group and even the marketing department…”
“I couldn’t let her act recklessly, so I said a few words. Who knew she would act like a mad dog and not let go…”
Bella looked as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Seeing Bella’s false accusations, Charlotte gritted her teeth in anger.
How could this woman be so hateful? She had never hated anyone as much as Bella. It was disgusting. She never imagined someone could be as vile as Bella.
Mr. Lewis’s eyebrows twitched at Bella’s words. “What’s going on? Damaging the company’s reputation? And the marketing department’s?”
He was nervous. This position wasn’t easy to hold. If something serious happened, he would be held accountable.
Bella quickly showed him her phone.
“Mr. Lewis, look!”
Mr. Lewis looked at the information on the screen and started trembling after a few seconds.
Regardless of the news’s authenticity, if such information were released, their company’s market value would plummet, potentially losing billions in an instant.
This meant that because of some negative impact brought by Charlotte, their company could instantly lose billions…
Moreover, it mentioned that this involved someone from the marketing department, which meant he was implicated. Soon, he would likely be questioned by the top management!
Even if he managed to keep his position, he would still be held accountable!
And all of this was because of Charlotte.
“Charlotte! Get over here!”
He roared, his eyes dark and fierce like an angry lion.
Charlotte walked over confidently. “Mr. Lewis, what do you want to say?”
Seeing Charlotte’s attitude, Mr. Lewis became even more enraged. “You fool! Do you know how much trouble you’ve caused? You’ve ruined everything for me!”
Charlotte’s tone was calm. “Mr. Lewis, I disagree with your statement. First, I didn’t do this. Second, I had no knowledge of this matter; I’m a victim of slander!”
“Why are you saying I caused this trouble?”
“Fool!”
Seeing Charlotte dare to talk back, Mr. Lewis’s anger surged again. He slapped her hard across the face with a loud smack that drew everyone’s attention.
Charlotte stood there with distinct finger marks on her pretty face!
