Chapter 416
Thalassa was taken aback by his words, dripping with sarcasm. Even if she wasn’t the brightest, she understood what he was implying.
He was just like Zephyr, looking down on her!
Believing she was using her position for personal gain!
Thalassa felt as if her heart was stuffed with cotton, irritated.
Suddenly, she remembered when Lysander asked her about the worth of investing in the gourmet competition.
She said it was worth it, and he swiftly signed the contract.
At that time, he must have believed that she was seeking personal gain, right?
Her best friend’s child won the competition, and because of that, Bruce got promoted!
Did he think all these were benefits for her?
Thalassa clenched her fists, addressing Lysander harshly, “Mr. Sinclair, Elowen won the competition because of her talents! Everyone can see that. Even if you didn’t invest in the gourmet competition, she would still win. That’s her talent and skills, not something I provided! And about Bruce, that loser, we are strangers and I don’t give a damn about his promotion!”
Thalassa was firm, and her voice was filled with annoyance.
In front of Lysander, she had always been submissive, timid and cautious.
This was the first time she lost her temper in front of him.
He could misunderstand her all he wanted, but he questioned Elowen’s abilities and the fairness of her win, which was unacceptable!
She couldn’t hold back anymore.
Lysander looked at her surprisingly, not expecting her to lose her cool.
“Do you know who you are speaking to?” Lysander said coldly.
“I’m very clear! Mr. Sinclair, just because you’re high and mighty doesn’t mean you know everything about everyone. You used me to reject the arranged marriage your grandfather set up for you, and I tolerated it. But you shouldn’t say the gourmet competition was for my personal gain! I’ve been standing all day, I’m tired. You carry on with your work, Mr. Sinclair, I’m leaving.”
Thalassa left his office quickly, her chest filled with anger.
Lysander watched her leave with his icy eyes.
Thalassa felt the oppressive atmosphere and the cold air. She barely held back her panic.
Once back in her office, she sat down heavily, sweating profusely.
Only God knew how much courage she needed to not show fear in front of him
She was even surprised at herself for daring to confront Lysander.
But she was so oppressed that she couldn’t breathe if she didn’t fight back.
However, if she had to do it again, she wouldn’t have the courage to confront Lysander.
Just facing him, being surrounded by his intimidating and icy aura, was suffocating.
She was so angry earlier. Lysander himself gave Elowen a perfect score, and he witnessed her power himself.
Yet, he insisted that Elowen won because of her bias.
This was something she couldn’t bear!
After work in the afternoon.
Thalassa didn’t dare to waste a moment, leaving right on time.
She thought clearly that from now on, she would leave work on time. If Lysander was displeased, he could just fire her.
She would be more than happy if he did.
It was strange. Before he was willing to compensate her a large sum just to fire her.
But after a few days, he transferred her back to the Sinclair Group, retaining her original secretarial position.
For this, he even bought Leopold’s company.
Could it be because Lysander didn’t want her to stay by Leopold’s side that he did all this?
Did she hold such an important position in Lysander’s heart?
The thought of the rich was really incomprehensible.
