Chapter 122

The next day, when Willow arrived to work, she was immediately summoned into Mr. Fawcett's office. With a nervous smile, he carefully told her, "You know, Willow? We're both victims of Deborah's deception! Though the rumors were traced back to her, she told me that

you're the one who fed her the information. So that's why..."

So that's why Sean Fawcett had started acting strangely towards Willow, after meeting with Deborah, that time in his office.

Even on her way out of the company, Deborah Salt had to make one last attack...

It was clear that Sean was trying to make some sort of apology, here. Willow chose not to hold petty grudges.

After all, she still wanted to work here, and Mr. Fawcett was her supervisor.

Willow nodded, and replied, "You always see the bigger picture, sir. Thank goodness you're not the sort to take a nasty accusation at face value. Instead, you'll always dig up the truth behind the matter. You're the sort of leader who understands the proper way to handle justice."

Sean grinned widely. "Well, of course I wouldn't be so unfair to my own people!" he declared cheerfully. "However, it's Mr. Hughes who sets an example for us all, on the subjects of truth and justice, and seeing the bigger picture."

He was only the head janitor here. He wasn't such a fool as to steal credit from the CEO.
