Even Ellison squinted at Joycelyn, who was beside him.

At this moment, Joycelyn was caught in a situation where she had just escaped one danger, only to walk right into another.

Everyone’s gazes were filled with all kinds of judgment and suspicion, pushing her directly to the center of heated discussions

Coupled with the fact that she had accidentally fallen into Ellison’s arms when she got off the stage earlier, everyone must have certainly cursed her countless times inwardly.

Joycelyn took a deep breath, raised the blank script in her hand, and said, “Ms. Lorne, as the director and an important spokesperson of the company, it’s very unprofessional of you to screw up at a critical moment.

“If I hadn’t stepped in to help, our company would have lost face in front of the world’s influential companies.

“You being the victim does make your case more convincing, but I have my own views.

“I suspect you’ve been bribed by corporate spies. To make our company lose the opportunity to expand, you purposely made yourself have an allergic reaction to play the victim.

“Secondly, my introduction just now was all the key points noted at the previous press conference, along with some core points from the three–party meeting the other day. My presentation was impromptu.

“Bring out your speech, and we’ll check it to see if I stole your speech manuscript in advance.”

Joycelyn’s clear voice was loud and clear. She explained everything unhurriedly, not overly defending herself. She turned the issue back to Linda.

When Linda heard that she was accused of being bribed by corporate spies, she couldn’t stay calm any longer.

“Mr. Grant, I didn’t betray the company, nor have I ever thought about doing so,” she said, her tone becoming agitated. Her swollen face, which looked like a pig’s head, combined with her agitated expression, made her look somewhat comical.

Joycelyn did not give her a chance to argue. She slowly questioned, “How come you had an allergic reaction just before you went on stage?

“It’s you…” Linda pointed at Joycelyn and snapped.

Joycelyn put on an expression of sudden realization on her flawless face and said, “Oh, it’s me. I made you have an allergic reaction. I was the one who swapped your speech manuscript.

“And it’s me who made you unable to go on stage. Then, I exposel my ambition, waiting for you to accuse me and catch me “Ms. Lorne, you’re killing two birds with one stone. You used me a small–time employee, to ruin the company’s project, and then conveniently made me take the fall and lose my job.

“You pulled off the move of putting all the chips in really smoothly. Small–time employees are nothing, huh? They’re just pawns for you to harm as you please so that you can further your interest, right?”

If it weren’t for the CEO being present, she would have said that his was a case of workplace bullying.
