The Silent Wife

Chapter 68

Everyone’s gaze immediately landed on her while some of those in charge of the meeting had already headed over with some tissues to help clean up the mess.

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.”

“Look at this! All of our materials are soiled now.”

“Tomas, grab five fresh copies of the meeting materials.”

The spilled beverage continued to drip from the table to the ground, forcing all the executives at the first row to stand up. As a result, the scene quickly became chaotic.

When an anxious Rachel tried to grab more tissue papers from another helper to clean the table, she was stopped by Sandy. “Rachel, you can head back now. You’re not needed here anymore.”

“You can’t just let her off without getting her to apologize for causing the meeting to end up like this, can you? The library is really generous to allow someone with professional qualities such as hers to continue working here, huh? Is there even a need for an expansion at this rate?”

Although Tina’s voice wasn’t loud, her cold voice still echoed in the huge meeting room.

Rachel’s expression immediately changed before Sandy quickly came to her rescue. “Miss Burton, this is really a misunderstanding. She’s not doing it on purpose by not apologizing.”

“Can’t you let her speak for herself? Does she need others to help her explain herself?”

Sandy frowned. “Miss Burton, that’s because-”

Not wanting to cause any dilemma for Sandy, Rachel interrupted with a sign gesture. I’m sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose.

“This…” The planning department’s vice executive looked stunned. “She is…”

At this moment, everyone gave Rachel strange looks. Although it wasn’t her first time being stared at like this, it didn’t make her feel any better.

Sympathy as well as ill-intentioned looks were both humiliating for her.

“You can’t speak?” Tina gave her a side-eye before she intentionally added, “It’s my bad, then. Since everyone is raising awareness to be nicer to the disabled, my apologies to you.”

“Rachel, is it?” Tina continued her acting and glanced at Rachel’s work permit. “I’m sorry. You won’t blame me for this, won’t you?”

At this moment, a bitter smile appeared on Rachel’s face. It’s fine.

“It’s just a misunderstanding.” Sandy came to her rescue again.

After giving the crowd an apologetic nod, Rachel decided to turn and leave with clenched fists.

“Hang on” Tina called out. “Miss Patterson, since we need to understand more about the library’s historical and cultural background, you should allow her to be in charge of providing us with guidance.”
