Unexpected Encounter with my Boss

Chapter 124

Over in the staff cafeteria, Alex went to grab some food, and Vincent handed Mandy a tissue. "So, what's going on with Tiffany? Why is she pitiful?" he asked.

After wiping her tears, Mandy replied, "Tiffany was saying how unfair the world can be. She feels like there are places where justice just doesn't exist.

"And without powerful connections, trying to stand up for yourself only brings more hurt. Vince, I feel really sorry for her."

A pang of empathy washed over Vincent as he asked, "What else did she say?"

Mandy's eyes welled up with emotion as she recounted, "Well, she mentioned that she grew up without parents, only having an older sister. And she was constantly bullied as a kid."

Her voice trembled with empathy as she continued, "Even though she said it so calmly, it really hit me hard. It made me look at my own life differently, you know?

"I've got loving parents and a brother who spoils me rotten. I've been so selfish and demanding sometimes. It's eye-opening. When I think about Tiffany's struggles, it's like I've been living in a fairy tale." Vincent's lips curved into a reassuring smile as he replied, "It's truly remarkable that you're able to recognize that."

"Oh, by the way," Mandy reached into her pocket and pulled out a check, "Vince, I have to admit I lied to you earlier.

"Tiffany never asked me for this 100 thousand. She didn't ask for anything, really. She just agreed to switch seats with me. She's such a kind soul. I lost to her fair and square, and I'm fine with that." Vincent raised an eyebrow. "Lost?"

"Yeah," Mandy said, taking a sip of her soup as her emotions settled.
