Chapter 1052 Punishment
Unable to control herself, Debra took a step forward, hurriedly trying to explain, “I…”
Lena, however, had no interest in hearing her explanation. She bluntly interrupted, “I never expected any repayment from you, but I also never expected you to do this to me.”
On the day she was taken to the hospital, Debra was the only one who accompanied her. When the doctor announced the results, Debra was there as well. Now, with the news of her pregnancy spreading through the company, Lena couldn’t believe Debra was not involved in it.
Debra anxiously looked at Lena, not knowing what to say.
In the end, she could only lower her head in resignation. “I’m sorry, Ms.Jenkins. Janet Phillips threatened me, saying if I didn’t speak up, she would fire me.”
But did she really have no way to keep this secret? Debra clenched her fists tightly.
She did have a way. It was just that she couldn’t accept the fact that Lena, who was younger than her, smoothly became her superior while she remained an unknown employee. So, when Janet threatened her, she took advantage of the situation to reveal this secret.
Lena closed her eyes. “Today, I’ll talk to the human resources department and have you transferred out of the assistant position. We won’t have any further connection.”
“What?” Debra couldn’t believe it. She looked at Lena in disbelief. “You can’t do this!”
“Why not?” Lena raised an eyebrow. “Do you think that after what you did, I could still let you be my
assistant?”
Debra was now worried. She thought Lena might be angry and then ignore her for a while, but she didn’t expect Lena to be so decisive in transferring her out of the assistant position.
Putting aside everything else, as Lena’s assistant, Debra enjoyed quite a few resources in the company. If she was no longer Lena’s assistant…
Debra panicked. She rushed to the desk. “I really know I was wrong! Please forgive me this time!”
Lena sneered, “Do you not know that spreading this news could become a weapon for Janet against me?”
Debra fell silent.
She was aware of that and just thought Lena could handle these things.
“Even if I’m not afraid of Janet, I won’t accept an assistant who once betrayed me.”
Without waiting for Debra to say anything else, Lena gestured for her to leave.
Debra bit her lip tightly, glaring at Lena resentfully, and hurriedly ran out.
Lena glanced at her computer and quickly threw this matter out of her mind.
The company was currently bidding for a municipal project. Under normal circumstances, Lena would have been in charge of this. But now…
Lena absentmindedly touched her belly for a moment and looked at the computer screen again.
She had to perform better than anyone else to secure this project.
During the afternoon meeting, Lena had just entered the venue when she saw Janet bringing Debra in.
Seeing Lena’s gaze on Debra, Janet raised an eyebrow and said, “Debra came today to beg me to take her as my assistant. I guess she didn’t like her previous job. Ms. Jenkins, you shouldn’t mind, right?”
Lena sneered, “Of course, I don’t mind. After all, she has been working for you for a long time, right?”
Lena’s words drew curious looks from those around. Janet changed her expression slightly. She denied what Lena said and then quickly led Debra to her seat.
