Chapter 49

“Angela, aren't you going to apologize to Mr. Hood?" Nora said coldly. Her tone was filled with reproach.

Angela's response was a sneer. “What now? Will we lose the deal if I don't drink this glass of wine?”

Nora was clearly targeting her, using her as a pawn for Dave's amusement.

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm giving you one more chance. Apologize to Mr. Hood!" Nora suddenly stood up and glared at Angela with icy eyes.

She had never encountered such a bold employee who dared to speak back to a superior like this. It was outrageous.
