Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

450 Everything at Once

In angry strides, the man approached Anna.

"You're not from around here, are you?" Anna asked. Anna realized something was wrong even though the man only said one word and was doing his best to hide his accent. He didn’t sound like a Birmingham native.

The man had no idea Anna would ask such a question. He froze, unsure how to respond. But Anna had already deduced the answer from his brief pause. She ignored the question with a smile. She said, "You're probably here because you were laid off a while ago. So, are you a previous employee or a family member of a previous employee?"

The man had prepared a brief speech to take the initiative in this negotiation. But he didn't expect Anna to realize the whole situation after asking two questions. He was frozen, unsure what to say. After hesitating for a while, he finally replied, "I'm Rosa's husband.”

"Rosa?" Anna asked, then nodded. She had previously read all the information on the fired employees in this incident and remembered this woman. "Of course, | remember her because she was the first to pull out the scissors and threaten to kill me.” Anna said hostilely.

When she noticed the man was scared, she said thoughtfully, "Rosa and the other workers were fired for breaking the company's rules and causing trouble. All of these decisions were made in full compliance with the company system, so you should have no concerns about this. As far as | know, the troublemakers have just been released from detention, correct?"

"Making a scene? We are good people who quit our jobs after learning that Lemon would treat us well. But we didn't anticipate you being so ruthless as to use toxic fabrics. You want to pass the buck and get rid of people now that the employees are sick. Let me tell you, that's not gonna happen!" The man then threw a pile of paper heavily at Anna

Anna looked through the paper and found that they were cases. She checked the date of the diagnosis and discovered that it was precisely two days before she fired the group of workers. She had a feeling that things were spiraling out of control.

Isabella noticed Anna was panicking and stood on her tiptoes to read the diagnoses. She became enraged when she saw the word "leukemia." Then Isabella snatched the case and smacked the man across the face.

"It couldn't possibly be a coincidence! Turns out you have this trick up your sleeve! Jerk!" She snarled. Isabella rushed over and attempted to hit him as she said this.

He laughed and said, "Ha! We knew you would deny it. But they were all diagnosed with leukemia less than a month after starting work here.
