Chapter 866

Penulis: Love Berries
She broke into a teary smile, looking both disheveled and endearing.

Choking up, Megan asked, “Aurora, are you really okay? You didn’t fall, right? You’re not hurt? Nothing got hit?”

Aurora shook her head. “I’m fine. My legs just gave out for a moment, I lost my balance a little. It’s really not as bad as you think.

“Well, yeah… she almost went face-first into the floor.”

Megan’s eyes widened. “What? Face-first?!”

Her voice shot up a few octaves.

Clearly, she couldn’t handle hearing that.

She’d promised to be here and take care of Aurora.

And now? Aurora had nearly fallen flat on her face.

She felt completely useless.

The thought only made Megan feel even more guilty.

Leonard watched from the side, and even he felt a pang of discomfort.

But he was just an outsider in this moment—he didn’t know what to say.

And truthfully, after what Lucas had said earlier, he realized he might’ve overstepped.

Leonard pressed his lips into a tight line, ultimately choosing not to step forward again.

    But she failed to notice that Albert’s face was growing darker by the second.It was obvious—between the receptionist and Grace, he’d choose Grace without hesitation.After all, she could bring far more value to his company.As for a low-level receptionist? She was expendable.“Shut up. Get out,” Albert growled under his breath, barely keeping his temper in check.The receptionist flinched, still hoping he’d stand up for her.She felt so wronged.She just showed up to work, yet she landed her in this mess.“But Mr. Hayes, I was just doing my job. How could that be wrong?”She pointed at Grace. “She’s the one who barged in here acting like she owns the place. That’s why this happened!”She tried to go on, but Albert had reached his limit. He kicked her hard, knocking her to the floor.“I said enough—are you deaf? “If you don’t need your ears, go donate them to someone who does.” He jabbed a finger toward the door. “Get out of my sight.”Whatever she was about to say died on her lips.

    Albert shot Lisa a look, signaling her to leave quickly.Then he turned to Grace with a smile. “Madam Grace, what brings you here today?”Albert was a shrewd man. He didn’t address her remarks directly, instead steering the conversation toward something more neutral.After all, if word got out about what just happened with his secretary, it wouldn’t sound good.It could even affect the company’s stock.For the sake of the company, this needed to be buried.Moreover, he’d have to deal with his wife too.Thinking of that, Albert’s gaze darkened, and his eyes toward Grace took on a dangerous glint.The woman barged in with such an aggressive aura—she clearly didn’t come in peace.He had no idea what had happened.Albert scanned the room and noticed she’d even brought in their company’s receptionist.At the sight, his heart sank.He had always disapproved of Walton Corporation being run by a woman, but over the years, he’d certainly benefited from her leadership.And with his son engaged t

    Albert’s eyes darkened.Once again, he thought of his useless son, and the nagging wife back home.Sure, he already had an illegitimate son outside, but what did that have to do with sleeping with a few more women along the way?In matters like these, once was never the end.A slow grin crept across Albert’s face as he cleared his throat and said in a low voice, “Lisa, is it just me, or is the air conditioning a bit warm today? Are you feeling hot?”The secretary, Lisa Flow, flinched slightly.She immediately understood what he meant.Feigning confusion, she replied, “It is a little warm. But it was about the same yesterday... maybe the AC’s acting up today?”As she spoke, she tugged slightly at the neckline of her blouse.The curve that had already been peeking out was now all but impossible to ignore.Albert’s eyes practically turned red.He loved subordinates who could read between the lines.One sentence from him, and she already knew what he was getting at.Money really could make

    She had worked with Hayes Enterprises for years, and yet here she was, being blocked at the door by some clueless receptionist.The more Grace thought about it, the more irritated she felt.So, after all these years of partnership, Albert never actually took her seriously?Otherwise, how could his receptionist treat her like this?A fire had already been simmering inside her.Now, with this added insult, the anger surged straight to her head.Jason, ever perceptive, gave a discreet nod to the bodyguards. Without hesitation, they stepped forward and grabbed the receptionist by both arms.They didn’t go easy on her just because she was a woman.The scene shocked everyone in the lobby.What era was this—were they seriously dealing with the mob now?Couldn’t this be considered illegal?The receptionist panicked, struggling wildly.“What do you think you’re doing?”“Let go of me! This is Hayes Enterprises—if you’re going to pull something this insane, at least pick the right place!”But he

    Grace slowly sat up straighter, her gaze flickering as she murmured, “Joseph Hunt?”Wasn’t he the man her daughter had once bet on?And now he dared to climb over Walton Corporation?How did he even have the nerve?“Yes, the Hunt subsidiary has been deliberately targeting us lately.“No matter what we do, it’s like he’s set on going against us. He even designed a specific plan targeting Walton Corporation.”Jason reported everything to Grace in detail.She pinched the bridge of her nose, feeling a wave of fatigue from deep within.Seeing this, Jason poured her a cup of hot water and pulled out a steam eye mask to help ease her exhaustion.“Madam Grace, your health is just starting to recover. You still need to take care and not overwork yourself.”After putting on the eye mask, the tight furrow between her brows finally relaxed a little.She only responded with a soft “Mm.”But deep down, she knew that if she didn’t shoulder these responsibilities, no one else could.The project issues

    Everyone exchanged looks, all feeling a bit sorry for the man just now.He was on the verge of a promotion and had a project in hand that recently caught the higher-ups' attention.But just because he talked about the general manager, he ended up getting kicked out.No one really cared about such matters.At the end of the day, it was best to do your job dutifully.And since Ian dared to fire someone, it was obvious this had something to do with Grace.That much was painfully clear.After all, Grace had just arrived at the company.With that thought in mind, everyone shut their mouths tightly, not daring to say another word.These things weren’t something they could change anyway.And no matter what the general manager’s situation was now, it didn’t have much to do with them. The company still had to keep running.Besides, Walton Corporation was such a big company—it wasn’t going to go bankrupt just like that.Thinking this way, they felt even sorrier for the man earlier.At that mome
