Larissa stood there as she thought about it for two minutes. Eventually, she still walked in with her cup.


A group of women were having a little meeting in front of the coffee machine in the pantry.


Larissa asked politely with a smile on her face, “Could you guys excuse me for a bit?”


The chattering stopped at once.


The women let her pass while looking away from her or touching something else. They could not have made their guilt more obvious.


Judy studied Larissa’s expression carefully. Seeing that there was nothing odd about her. Judy simply assumed that Larissa did not hear


anything.


“The coffee’s not ready yet, so we’re all waiting here.” Judy took the initiative to talk to Larissa, Her voice was sweet, like they were friends


for many years.


“Oh,” Larissa politely responded. “Then I’ll come by later.” She was about to leave when Judy grabbed her arm.


“Is the coffee for yourself, or is it for Mr. Logan Junior?” Judy stared at Larissa’s mug. A flash of jealousy appeared in her eyes.


Larissa figured it out the moment she followed Judy’s gaze-


This mug was given to her by Lewis yesterday. She had no idea where he got it from because it looked exactly the same as the one on his table. So, Judy had misunderstood.


But Larissa did not bother to explain. Because no matter what she said, her colleagues will only think that she was trying to find an excuse.


“It’s for mysell” she said.


Judy’s grip on her arm tightened, but she was still smiling as she said. “You can leave the mug here, darling. I’ll give it to you once the


coffee is ready.”


Larissa felt a little grossed out as she looked at Judy’s fake smile. Even if Judy was willing to pour coffee for her, Larissa would never dare to drink it. What if something interesting” was added to her mug?


“Thanks, but that won’t be necessary.” Larissa tightened her grip on her mug and forced a smile. “There probably isn’t enough coffee for all of you. I’ll wait for the next round.”


The company’s coffee machine was not big. One round of coffee could only fill up five cups. There were seven people in the pantry right


ΠΟΥ,


Larissa thought that she could use this excuse to leave, but Judy refused to let her go.


“It’s alright, we can all pour a little less and totally make sure there’s enough for two extra cups,” Judy said and reached out to snatch Larissa’s mug.


Larissa was trapped by Judy’s grip, so she was not able to avoid her even if she tried to. Judy successfully stole the mug from her and deliberately smashed it on the floor, though she pretended like she dropped it by accident.


The mug was now in pieces. The women screamed as they avoided the mess, including Judy, the person who started it all. She backed up more than a foot away from the pieces.


Larissa was the only one who remained there. After being stunned for a moment, she crouched down to pick up the big pieces to throw


Into the trash can.


“Sorry, Larissa, darling. My hand slipped.” Judy apologized, but the triumphant smile was obvious. “Where did you buy this cup? I buy another for you!


Larissa was enraged, but she could not lash out as Judy was a colleague that she would have to work with for a long time.


“It’s fine.” Larissa maintained her fake smile. She did her best to hide her rage. “I’ll get the janitors to clean up. Be careful, you guys, don’t louch it.”


There was only one Janitor on every floor. She was currently cleaning in front of Lewis office. When Larissa went to get her, Lewis
