Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO’s Plaything

Chapter 324 - Slandered

Lisa leaned over while looking at the picture. It was disgusting indeed, solid evidence that she was being harassed by the two mobs a few days ago that made her end up in a hospital.

Even though it was night and the lighting in the quiet alley was very dim, her and the mobs' faces were clearly visible in the photo. Lisa didn't lie to her own eyes, the photo was not fabricated! historical

While moving her seat closer, Lisa closed her eyelids for a moment then faced her manager who looked displeased with what he thought was a disgusting act meant to destroy the hotel's reputation. However, Lisa's gaze was still calm.

With courage and determination, Lisa finally spoke up, "It is true that this photo is not a fabrication. I should admit that it's real,"

"You are really shameless! I thought you were a model employee when I read your resume. I had no idea that a woman who seemed kind and exemplary would turn out to be immoral. You do realize that if the residents around this hotel find out what you did can destroy our hotel's good image, right?"

The manager scolded her at length as if she had made such an irreparable mistake. The man shook his head, tapping the table surface with a restless heart.

"Sir, if I may explain the real story about what happened in the photo.. it's not like what it seems. But what you need to know is, you misunderstand this. The truth is, I was raped by these two disgusting mobs! I don't even know them, sir!" Lisa's voice sounded steady and firm, without doubt or the slightest lie in it.

The manager still didn't seem to believe Lisa's explanation. His eyebrows were knitted together suspiciously as he said, "Lisa, this evidence is right in front of you and you saw it with your own eyes, how come you still want to deny it!?" He insisted.

"Yes, the evidence is here. But where is the person who gave this photo to you now, sir?" Lisa added defensively.

"A visitor gave it to me and complained about your immorality, Lisa!"

"Okay, I want to know and speak directly to them. I can't accept this, I feel slandered. I need to set things straight," Lisa said firmly.

"For god sake, you are really good at arguing. It's obvious that you did indecent things with the two men near the Cendana hotel and you still won't admit it !?" The manager got increasingly stubborn.

"Sir, it would be unfair if I did not meet this visitor in person. There is a misunderstanding here. I ask for your help, if it is proven that I did it, then you can fire me!"

What Lisa just said sounded so stern without a doubt, piercing through the manager's chest like a bullet. As he lost the argument, the manager finally picked up the phone and made a call. He looked at Lisa with an annoyed face while clicking his tongue.

"Hello, I am the financial manager of the Cendana hotel. Could you please go to the finance room on the second floor? Thank you."

A few moments after he made the call, the long-awaited guests finally arrived.

Veronica and Karina came with proud faces, as if they had won a fight. The two of them both raised their chins as they strolled toward the finance manager room.

Then they saw Lisa looking calm and expressionless, so Karina suddenly said, "Wow, look at her. Hey, are you not ashamed to go back to work here again after destroying the hotel's reputation?"

"Karina, dear, a cheap and immoral woman like Lisa deserves a harsh punishment. Isn't that right, manager?" Veronica said confidently.

In return, the manager cleared his throat to silence the two snakes so as not to provoke a scene in his office. He took a deep breath and then said, "I was asked to call you both. I heard there was a misunderstanding about the report you gave me this morning."

Both Veronica and Karina then looked at Lisa with astonished faces. They couldn't believe that Lisa still dared to challenge them to fight.

"Seriously? She's clearly committed indecent acts in public. Especially in a quiet alley near your hotel, sir! What will happen to this hotel's good name if an immoral woman like Lisa is still allowed to work here?" Karina said, trying to convince the manager.

"Do you both know that taking photos without permission violates the privacy rights of individuals? Did I tell you to take this photo? No, right?" Lisa suddenly snapped. Her voice sounded firm and steady as she stared at the two snakes with a cold gaze.

"Haha, you stupid bitch! You asked your manager to call me and my mom to meet you at the finance manager's office just to discuss something so obvious? Why are you still in denial? You're clearly at fault!" Karina replied harshly. She put her hands on her hips while looking at Lisa with a mocking face.

"Lisa, you've done such a disgraceful act with mobs near your working place. Aren't you afraid if all employees here know what you did? We have to report you so that you won't embarrass others again, do you understand?!" Veronica added, as if she were pouring gas into a burning fire.

Lisa was still calm and didn't waver at all. She didn't want to lose her composure just because Veronica and Karina kept getting on her nerves. "Then, let me ask you two, Mrs. Veronica and Miss Karina. Did you take this photo by yourself?"

"Of course! Otherwise who else would take this disgusting photo!?" Veronica replied proudly and confidently.

Hearing her answer, a thin grin appeared on the edge of Lisa's lips. Without realizing it, Veronica was caught off guard and fell into Lisa's trap.

"So if you guys take this photo while it's clear that the two mobs were harassing me, why didn't you help me? Why did you even take a photo of me being raped and report it to my boss saying that I did something indecent?" Lisa replied confidently.

Hearing her statement just now immediately made everyone inside the room freeze. The manager was immediately taken aback, his eyes wide as he frowned.

On the other hand, Veronica and Karina gawked as they realized that they'd just been trapped. They were so annoyed that they were caught off guard. As her face began to flush red with shame, Veronica looked for excuses so that the manager would believe her slander.

"B... But ... You were enjoying it, right, Lisa!? You enjoyed having your way with those mobs in that quiet alley, don't you dare to deny it! And don't pretend to be innocent either! Why are you trying to twist the truth?!" Veronica's voice cracked.

"Mrs.. Veronica, although I am not as beautiful as those celebs, I am not that cheap. Do you think I want to make love to those disgusting mobs?"
