Chapter 515 - Accidental Meeting
historical
At first, Lisa still wanted to be professional and didn't bring personal problems into her work. But after she was accused by Maria and her arrogant face, her patience had run out!
Long before Lisa finished her proposal, she already knew the reason Maria suddenly applied for a job here and became her new boss. That witch must've wanted to bring her down and find a way to publicly humiliate her. But stupidly, Lisa fell for Maria's sweet talk that said that she wanted to change.
But now, standing in front of Patricia and Maria's piercing gaze, Lisa knew she shouldn't trust the devil.
Hearing Lisa's harsh words made Patricia dumbfounded. But within seconds, the woman let out a sad-looking smile. She walked over to Lisa and hugged her tightly.
"Lisa, it's okay, I understand you're ashamed," Patricia said loudly, making Maria hear all the words of the woman clearly. "I don't like telling you this, but you should know that what you did was wrong because you plagiarized my proposal. I'm just saying this to remind you that what you did was wrong."
The anger within her kept flaming, burning all the patience in her body. Lisa pushed Patricia's body away from her and looked closely at the woman's face.
"Patricia, I don't know what else to say to you. I swear I did not and will never plagiarize your or someone else's work. I'll prove it to you!" Lisa's eyes looked at Patricia and Maria in turn, "I will prove it that f I didn't plagiarize your proposal!"
There was no look of surprise or disappointment on Patricia's face when Lisa let go of her embrace. The woman seemed to have a hard time holding back a wide smile.
"Okay, it's up to you. You can look for solid evidence that you can use to defend yourself. As long as you can get the evidence, I'll assume you're not wrong and our proposals happen to be similar." Patricia replied lightly. The look on her face was sincere, but unfortunately, the woman's tone was peppered with ridicule.
After that, Lisa was allowed to leave Maria's room. With a heavy heart and footsteps, the woman sat back in her desk chair. Her head was filled with annoyance while her throat felt tight from trying to hold back the urge to cry.
In this office, she has no place to hide to cry and vent her emotions. Here, Lisa could only be silent and put on a thick mask. The woman didn't want other employees to think that something wrong happened to her or that she's getting angry for no reason.
Moreover, Lisa knows that Cicilia's hobby is gossiping people, just like Vira. Instead of having that one colleague adding oil to the already smoldering fire in her heart, it's better for Lisa to just keep quiet and act like nothing happened.
During work and even lunch, Lisa felt weak. She wanted to have lunch with a complete mixed rice menu bought by Cicilia, but the woman still felt weak. Her mind was working hard, trying to find solid evidence that she could use to defend herself next time.
Time goes by quickly and so the time to go home from work has finally come. The sun that had begun to sink shone on her body. The afternoon air was so warm on her skin after she spent the whole day in the air-conditioned room.
Lisa felt her body warm as soon as she got exposed to the afternoon sun. But not with her heart. Her heart felt so cold that she thought that it was winter now.
Now, what Lisa has to do is look for solid evidence. It's easier said than done indeed. Since she had taken an oath and said that she would look for evidence to defend herself. But now that she was out of the office building, she felt stupid. Finding evidence is not easy. Is there any evidence she could use to defend herself?
Earlier in Maria's room, Lisa could see that the demonic woman was working with Patricia to bring her down. Even a fool could already see that the two were conspiring together. Their acting looks so pathetic, worse than the cheap soap operas that she sometimes watched just to spend her spare time.
Maria must've contacted Patricia after Lisa received the offer to work on that big project. Given her high position in the company, she must have promised her something. Perhaps the woman promised Patricia a high position or a raise.
While walking straight ahead, Lisa couldn't stop grumbling in her heart. Her only wish now was to hide under the thick blanket on her bed. Today, she felt so tired. Even more tired than the days when she made the proposal.
Just when Lisa wanted to stop the taxi that was passing in front of her, the corner of her eye caught a very familiar car. Curiosity made her turn her head and look at the black car that was beautifully parked in front of an electronics store.
Not far from where she was standing, she saw Oscar talking to a woman who had a sexy body. At first glance, their faces lit up. Neither of them could stop smiling broadly.
Lisa thought that she was just hallucinating because she was too tired. But even though she had rubbed her eyes a few times, she still saw Oscar standing facing a woman. The woman looks sexy in a white long-sleeved shirt and a red tight-fitting skirt. Her feet were adorned with 10-inch high heels, making her almost as tall as Oscar. Her left hand carries a Rouis Vuitton clutch that's known for its expensive price. Her long jet black hair was left loose.
Sometimes, she would raise her hand and tuck a few strands of her long hair behind her ear. Even though Lisa didn't get to see the woman because she was standing with her back to her, she felt very familiar with her.
Lisa seems to have seen that Rouis Vuitton clutch, but she couldn't remember the owner. She didn't want to have bad thoughts and accuse the innocent woman.
She saw Oscar's handsome face was beaming with a big smile. This time, the man looked so bright, like the sun shining after the sky couldn't stop raining. It had been a long time since Lisa had seen that look on his handsome face.
Nobody knew how long Lisa stood frozen not far from them, the woman who was talking to Oscar suddenly turned around. Lisa's heart seemed to stop beating when she recognized her beautiful face.
What did Indri Mauliya do with that man?!
