Anahi then turned around and stormed out of the office.
Amanda was irritated by her insubordination.
“How dare you speak to me in that way? I can fire you right now!” she shouted at Anahi’s retreating figure.
Anahi felt as though she had been deeply wronged. As she pushed the door open, Tess entered the office.
Tess had overheard the entire conversation.
“Miss Green,” Anahi said, holding back her tears. She then fled from the office without a backward glance.
Tess smiled.
“Aunt Amanda, you don’t have to shout at a nobody Like her. Whether you like her or not, we can’t afford to let her go at this crucial stage. You can always fire her after the bidding is over.”
She crossed the room, speaking softly to calm her aunt. When she reached Amanda, she stood behind her and massaged her shoulders.
The wound on her face had already started to heal, but she would never forget how humiliated she had been at the ceremony.
Her father was a businessman and valued his business interests above all else. Although he knew she had been wronged, he wouldn’t risk helping her destroy that bitch, Lucinda. Her supporters were too powerful. They included backers like Cyrus and Benico.
So, Tess had to approach Amanda for help. She would find an opportunity to avenge herself.
Amanda tried to calm down. She held Tess’s hand, intimately.
“Tess, I am so fortunate to have you by my side. Without you, I would lose my temper with all of them. You must have learned a lot about management while you were abroad. I might need your help in the future.”
That was exactly what Tess had been waiting for. She smiled modestly and said, “I know a little about it. You can always rely on me. I would be honored and will try my best to help you.”

Amanda had only spoken that way out of politeness, but when she saw how eager Tess seemed, she decided to let Tess be a manager in the company.
It only took Tess an afternoon to sort out the archived files, which had been in storage for many years.
And Amanda immediately trusted Tess and made her the head of two other departments.
Three days later, the bidding meeting was due to start.
Amanda asked Tess to handle any issues at the company, while she attended the bidding with her daughter.
The two stood at the door and exchanged greetings with the senior executives of the other companies.
After circling the room and learning about the competing companies, Amanda felt that it was even more likely for her to win the bid.
When she was about to go in, she heard a commotion behind her.
