Chapter 16

The middle-aged woman grinned maliciously, her hair flying in the air due to her agitation. Her eyes were bloodshot as she glared at Willow. She reached for Willow's face with thin arms. A cold wind grazed Willow's face, and the pain was akin to a knife stabbing her. She held her breath, watching carefully as the woman's hand rapidly descended toward her. When it was just a centimeter away from her face, Willow reached out and accurately grasped it.

"You dare to fight back! You slut, you're asking for it!" The woman was overbearing and arrogant. She raised her other hand threateningly.

Willow lifted her foot and kicked the middle-aged woman's hand, forcefully pushing her away.

Dale's wife was strong, and resisting her alone was already exhausting for Willow. After going through these series of motions, she was almost on the verge of collapse.

Yet, the middle-aged woman stumbled back a step, steadied herself, and charged at Willow even more aggressively.

Willow's eyes widened. She had no strength left to resist. Why was this person so persistent and unreasonable?

Willow retreated a few steps, attempting to create distance. However, the middle-aged woman was resolute about attacking. Her footsteps were swift and urgent.

In the blink of an eye, Willow was at a disadvantage. She was about to be struck by the woman's fist.

The head of the janitorial department walked over quickly, grabbing the middle-aged woman and stopping her.

"Ma'am, this is Hughes Corporation. It's not a place for you to cause a scene. Please conduct yourself appropriately," he warned.

The head of the janitorial department spoke formally, representing the authority of Hughes Corporation.

Confronted with his composure, the woman's demeanor softened. Despite her arrogance, she didn't dare challenge Hughes Corporation's authority.

She began to chatter, exaggerating and recounting how Willow had seduced her husband, got rejected, and then sought someone to beat him up. Willow couldn't stand it anymore. This was clearly defamation.
