Fool

Chapter 67 The Biggest Fool

“Ms. Forbes, congratulations on your recovery,” Charlene said with a smug smile.

“Thank you, Ms. Johnson,” Imogen replied indifferently.

“Ms. Forbes, you haven’t been here these past few days. I thought you were too ashamed to show your face!”

Imogen gave a faint smile. “Ms. Johnson, seems like you are very happy after losing half of your year–end bonus. Sacrificing so much money just to spite me. Ms. Johnson, you really spare no expense.”

Charlene’s expression stiffened, then she said, “Imogen, do you think you’ve won?”

“What do you mean?”

Charlene raised an eyebrow. “Do you really think it was the intern’s mistake?”

Imogen remained silent. Of course, she knew that it was Charlene who had liked the post on purpose. The intern was just being made a scapegoat for Charlene.

Seeing her expression, Charlene smiled and continued, “If you can figure out that it was me, do you think Mr. Marshall wouldn’t know? But he still chose to keep me and put the blame on the intern. What do you think that represents?”

Imogen pondered it for a while, and then she lowered her gaze.

She understood in her heart that it meant Troy didn’t care about her, that in Troy’s eyes, Sarah was much more important.

Just because Charlene and Imogen were at odds with each other, mutually restraining one another, no matter how much Charlene slandered her, she wouldn’t be transferred from her position as the director of public relations.

Charlene was more important than her reputation.

Charlene continued, “Even if I have to pay a hefty fine for the year–end bonus, it’s just a bonus. It doesn’t touch my salary, and besides, there’s still some time until the year–end. Maybe I can win it back. This punishment is nothing but a scratch for me. Only you take this meaningless punishment seriously, Imogen. Now you should understand your position in Mr. Marshall’s heart, right? He speaks up for you in the group chat, making it seem like he’s defending you, but in reality, what have you gained?”

Imogen’s reputation remained bad in that case, and her work continued to be difficult.

Imogen felt somewhat fortunate that she wasn’t moved by Troy’s defense.

Otherwise, she would truly be the biggest fool in the world.

And she felt fortunate that she had seen through Troy’s true face.

“I’m curious, Ms. Johnson, why do you hold such malice toward me?” Imogen changed the subject and asked.

“Why? Can’t I just naturally dislike you?”

Imogen firmly said, “No, that’s not possible.”
