“Sally, do you know what projects Emily was working on before she was fired?” I asked.

“Let me think. I think it was—”
Before Sally could give me key information, Adam suddenly appeared. “Why aren’t you two working?” Adam roared with a dark face. “Sally, get back to work.”
“Yes, Mr. Cooper!”

Sally, who was caught in the act of gossiping, felt very guilty and scurried off like a mouse. She ran really fast in her high heels.
After driving Sally away, Adam looked at me coldly and demanded, “Debra, what exactly happened between you and Janiya yesterday?”
Debra’s POV:
Looking into Adam’s serious eyes, I was a little hesitant.
If I told him the truth, Adam would likely fire me. I wasn’t as important in his eyes as the cooperation he had with the Barton family. He definitely couldn’t afford to offend Janiya at this time.
After thinking for a while, I put on a smile and said simply, “Don’t worry. Yesterday was just a misunderstanding.”
“But I heard that Janiya was rushed to the hospital.” Adam squinted at me suspiciously.
“She got a cut, that’s all. And I went to the police station to give them a statement. The case was closed yesterday,” I explained coolly.
Janiya’s injuries looked worse than they actually were. She wasn’t stupid enough to risk her own life just to frame me.

After getting the reply he wanted, Adam relaxed a Little and nodded in satisfaction. He stared at me with a meaningful look and said, “That’s good. Debra, you have to know your place, understood? Don’t mess with people like Janiya.”
“Of course.” I didn’t retort and bowed obediently.
Adam seemed to be very satisfied with my answer, because he suddenly smiled and said in a kinder tone, “It’s good that you understand. Oh, and a word of advice? Forget about Caleb. Only a she-wolf from a rich family can be his wife. But you can always be his secret lover.”
The corner of my mouth twitched. Adam’s so-called advice made me sick. I hated the thought of being
Caleb’s wife, let alone his secret lover!
Did these arrogant werewolves think that she-wolves were their playthings?
Even though I was seething inwardly, I still pretended to be respectful. “Of course, sir. Don’t worry. I know my place.”
Perhaps it was because Adam had gotten the answer he wanted that his grin widened.
Before I could leave to get back to work, Adam added, “Although Janiya wasn’t seriously injured, she won’t be happy about what happened. I want you to go to the hospital tomorrow to apologize to her.”
