"Alright, Claire, you should head back now," said Sherman.

"Why are you stoppingfrom speaking? Everything I said is true. Can't Miss Rita handle the truth?" Claire looked aggrieved, and Rita's expression turned cold.

"Miss Claire, why don't you just cright out with it? There's no need to beat around the bush. You're acting quite different from when we met during the interview. I thought you were the straightforward type.' Rita shifted her gaze aside. She could not quite discern which version of Claire was the real one. After all, they had a pleasant conversation during the interview, but at this moment, she seemed like a different person. In fact, she was acting more like the resentful wife she performed on stage.

"Huh! Aren't you also beating around the bush? I warn you-stay away from Sherman! In fact, he shouldn't even be in your thoughts! We're both women here, so don't think I don't know what you're up to!" Finding Claire's words amusing, Rita could not help but chuckle.

"It seems our last interview wasn't long enough. Otherwise, how could I have missed out on your humorous side?" said Rita sarcastically.

Claire's expression turned serious, and her previous air of superiority vanished completely. She never expected to meet such resistance. Rita did not seem to be affected by her words at all.

"What do you mean by that? Don't change the subject!" "You're right about us two being women, but you shouldn't lumpin with you just because of that, Miss Claire. I'm not the type to cling to a man who doesn't love me." Rita's words were laced with sarcasm, and Lucy struggled to contain her laughter. The staff had thought Rita was only pretty-faced, so it was a surprise to them that she was able to win an argument against the wily Claire.

'Miss Rita is formidable, alright. She was able to shatter Miss Claire's cy facade with just a few words! guess it's true that there'll always be someone more capable than you,' thought Lucy.

Sherman could not help but let out a faint smile, but in Claire's eyes, it was unforgivable.

"Sherman, are you teaming up with outsiders to mock me?" asked Claire in disbelief. "Yet, all I wanted to do is to protect you from scheming women! You've truly disappointed mel IMS Claire stormed out, even bumping into Rita in her haste.

'Oh well. Now that she's gone, I don't need to think about asking which driver to send her home,' thought Sherman.

Although he knew the aftermath would be hard to clean up, at least he could have srelief at that moment.

"Lucy, what did I tell you? Is my office somewhere you can barge in whenever you please?" Lucy immediately lowered her head. "I'm sorry. It was wrong ofto do that." She did not try to defend herself.

Rita anxiously explained, "It wasn't Lucy who wanted to cin here! I was worried about you since the argument sounded intense, so I..." "There are things you can do, but as my secretary, she can't. Anyway, you can go now, Lucy. But I don't want to see you making the smistake again."

Lucy breathed a sigh of relief and left quickly, not forgetting to close the doongentiy door gently behind her as she did.

Rita suddenly felt awkward with only the two of them in the office. In fact, the spacious office suddenly felt claustrophobic to her. X
