A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO

Chapter 2025 A Slap to Show Where He Stands

Emmanuel's expression darkened immediately. That woman's attitude was

completely unfit for an employee of Terence Group. Especially since the branch was trying to establish itself in Zovince with a solid reputation-having someone like her on the team would definitely tarnish that effort.

“Emmanuel, what's going on here?" Julian, still fuming, could barely contain his anger. If this woman didn't get some form of punishment, he figured he wouldn't be able to sleep for days.

"You said your manager doesn't look like me, so what does he look like?" Emmanuel asked, his face stern as he stared her down.

"Oh, still going on with this?" The woman crossed her arms, her expression

just as irritated. "Do your research next time. Why should I tell you what our manager looks like?"

"Isn't it Gautier Verkade? Looks like this, right?" Emmanuel didn't waste any more time arguing. He pulled out his phone and showed her a photo of Chapter 2025 A Slap to Show Where He Stands

Gautier.

The woman was momentarily taken aback before she sneered, "Ha, so you

know who he is and still decided to impersonate him? How stupid can you be?"

"Is that so?" Emmanuel immediately pulled out his phone and called Gautier. “Emmanuel, are you at the branch? Perfect, I was just heading back to the

office. I'll be there soon!"

"Alright, I'll wait for you," Emmanuel said, holding back further explanation until

Gautier arrived.

Julian, still heated, snapped at the woman, "You're in deep trouble now! You don't even know who your real boss is, and you've been shouting nonsense,

insulting people without knowing who you're dealing with."

The woman began to feel uneasy. If these three were frauds, why were they

so persistent? What was the point of trying to break into a new company? It didn't add up.

Just as suspicion began to creep in, a Porsche pulled up in front of the office. Gautier stepped out of the car with his assistant beside him.

"Mr. Verkade?" The woman gasped in shock, her sense of foreboding intensifying. That man had just made a phone call, and now her boss-or at

least she thought so-had shown up. If this was just a coincidence, it was far

too convenient.
