She Got A Better Man

Chapter 36

"Throw her out! Now!" Zach barked an order in a harsh tone and turned his back on her.

His bodyguard came into his office and dragged Sherry away. No matter how much she screamed and yelled, it was to no avail.

'I really shouldn't have lied about my identity, Zach sighed as he rubbed his temples. 'One lie would lead to another, and it would never end if I didn't come clean to Elvira soon,' he thought.

Sherry was forcefully escorted downstairs by Zach's bodyguards and was unceremoniously thrown out of the building. Her belongings were tossed out after her, scattering across the floor. As she tried to gather herself and return inside, hoping to plead with Zach for mercy, she was met with a firm blockade of the bodyguards, who denied her reentry. The once dignified woman found herself in a mess, embarrassed and disgraced.

Everyone stood in disbelief, stunned by the scene. Sherry Johnson, who until moments ago was widely regarded as the most prestigious and respected member of the company staff, had been ousted from her position in a manner that was both abrupt and humiliating. The atmosphere was tense as people whispered nervously to one another and cast furtive glances at Sherry. "This is the first time such things happened in Gilbert Group," a staff member said.

"What did Ms. Johnson do? Was it a major mistake? Or a crime?" another staff member whispered to her colleagues.

Sherry's face was as pale as a ghost. She stumbled a little as she stood up and walked away without picking up her belongings. She then hailed a taxi and left in despair.

Sherry's phone rang when she was in the taxi, and she held it up to her ear with a blank expression on her face. A man's voice said, "Ms. Johnson, it has been a while. I heard Zach Gilbert fired you. Do you want to reconsider my offer?"

Sherry tightened her grip on her phone, thinking about the years of hard work she had put into while working with Zach Gilbert, only to be dismissed in such a humiliating manner. She couldn't help but notice the stark contrast between his coldness towards her and the tender attention he showered upon Elvira. Reluctant to accept the bitter reality of her situation, she gritted her teeth and uttered through clenched jaws, "Alright! I'll accept your offer."

The man laughed upon hearing Sherry's reply and said, "A wise person would always adapt themselves to circumstances. have faith in you, Ms. Johnson."

Sherry's hand slowly dropped to her side, her fingers curling into a fist over her phone. She gritted her teeth and muttered under her breath, "Zach Gilbert, you did this to me first, so don't blame me for being ruthless."

In the hospital, Tracy could sense that Elvira was feeling down today. When Elvira went out to look for the nurse, Tracy called and asked Zach if anything happened between them.

After hearing Zach's account of what happened, Tracy laughed. "You deserved it. No one told you to lie about your identity. See how it came back to bite you? It's called retribution!"
