Rita pressed Lenny's shoulder and guided him to sit on the sofa.

"Boss, how can you say I'm making things difficult for you? From start to finish, I've been a victim in this matter. I've been trying to figure out how to deal with Chase spreading rumors about me, and I never expected you and the higher-ups to care so much about your subordinates and take care of it for me.

"But I want to know how Mister Sherman is related to this matter. Since I overheard you talking to him, why not just tellthe truth? I should at least thank him if he'd helped, don't you think so? You wouldn't wantto owe him a favor, would you?" Rita's words had nothing to do with Lenny. He thought that maybe Sherman had taken a liking to her since he was willing to help her. In any case, as long as he could extricate himself, how Rita and Sherman resolved this matter was no longer his concern.

"Don't eavesdrop onnext time!" Lenny took a sip of coffee before recounting what happened after Rita slammed the door and left that afternoon.

"Heaven knows how you're so lucky. Even though you treated Mister Sherman like that, he still helped you resolve the issue with Chase so kindheartedly. Although for him, it's just a matter of saying a few words, Chase's uncle could have caused trouble for us.

"Of course, Mister Sherman doesn't even consider these two people worth his attention. He just kept reminding us repeatedly not to let you know about this matter, to handle it quietly, and clear your name." Realizing that Sherman was involved was one thing, but hearing about how much he had considered her was another. Rita could not help but feel touched. Still, she did not understand why Sherman-with whom she had only a passing acquaintance-would bother to concern himself with her affairs, especially after their last encounter ended on a sour note.

Seeing Rita's dazed expression, Lenny could not help feeling annoyed. "You're so lucky, yet you're not even thinking about how to repay Mister Sherman. You can't let others go through all that trouble for you for nothing." Rita could not hold back her retort. "But weren't you just unwilling to tell me? He said not to letknow, so I should just pretend not to know, right?" "Why you!" Lenny pointed at Rita angrily. "How can you be so petty? Don't you know just how much trouble Mister Sherman saved you from? When Chase was around, you never had a moment of peace.df he's capable of fabricating baseless rumors to tarnish your reputation this time, he might do something even worse next time. Fortunately, you have your family backing you up." "If you knew what kind of person Chase was, why didn't you fire him earlier? He's bullied all the other newcomers too, not just me. Why should such a parasite be allowed to stay at New Capital Times?"

Rita could not shake off her frustration at this point. None of this would have happened if Lenny had taken action to dismiss Chase earlier.

Lenny sighed. "You don't understand our situation. You all think we have the power to get Chase fired. But e have you ever considered just what kind of position his uncle holds? We can't afford to offend someone like that. "Luckily, we have Mister Sherman

this time. If we encounter someone like Chase in the future, we'll probably have to endure it again, so can you е please control your temper next time? You're a young woman, and your reputation is important. You can't afford to be so indifferent." X
