Chapter 3
Celeste stated at the young boy inconfusion. She could tell he wasn’t an ordinary child by the looks of his attire. But it was hard to describe how he looked at her. It was as though he viewed her as a card and precious object.
The thought made celeste want to laugh out loud.
Faye lost her patience and snapped at the boy, “Who are you? Don’t you know it’s against company policy to barge in during work hours?”
“Shut up!” the boy responded coldly, giving her a dismissive glance. He pointed at her and commanded, “You! Clean up that mess on the floor right now, and make sure you do it with your hands
Faye couldn’t believe her ears. She laughed in exasperation.
“What did you say?”
She was stunned that he dared tell her to clean the floor,
The boy responded scomtully, “Can’t you understand me? It’s bad enough that you’re ugly, but you’re dumb, too. I’m seriously reconsidering whether to let your company handle my birthday party!”
Faye was stunned by his sharp tongue. Her body trembled in anger
“Where did this brat come from? Didn’t your parents teach you any manners? I teach you a lesson myself!” with that, she raised her hand to slap bin
Celeste was shocked and, almost instinctively, lunged forward to protect the boy, pulling him into her arms. A small child wouldn’t be able to handle being slapped, Everyone else was equally stunned that Faye could bring herself to hit such an adorable child.
The bodyguards were taken aback but quickly regained their senses.
“How dare you lay your hands on him? Arrest her!”
In less than two seconds, two bodyguards had restrained Faye.
Everyone was shocked, even Taye She had never been treated like this, especially in front of her statt,
She struggled and shouted famously, “What are you doing? Let me go!”
But the bodyguards held her firmly and didn’t byder
At that moment, Louis, the manages of Creative Solutions, rushed in
He quickly apologized, “entlemen, please calm down. She didn’t know who you were and spoke out of tum. I sincerely apologize. Thope you can let this slide.” Louis had been in his office onthe top floor when he beard that the heir of Food Corporation had arrived. He thought of personally welcoming him, but to his surprise, the kid ended up in the planning department.
Louis was utterly shocked when he learned what had happened. Creative Solutions had worked hard to secure a partnership with Font Corporation. If this incident jeopardized that, Louis would be beside himself,
One of the bodyguards sneered, “Your employee dared to call Mr. Samuel Ford a beat with no manners!”
The mom fell silent in shock. It tomed out that the adorable young boy was the heir of Food Corporation. No wonder he carried himself with such sophistication at such a young HER.
Faye was completely stunned, and her angry face med pale. Now that she had offended the heir of Ford Corporation, she was doomed. She might even lose her job it she costs the company this client
Louis‘ face tumed ashen, and he nervously said, “I’m sorry. I’ll make sure she apologizes tight away.
After saying that, he glared furiously at Tave “Ms. Hall, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and apologizel
Faye felt humiliated but couldn’t afford to worry about ar pride at that moment. She quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Samuel. I was wrong to have offended you earlier. Please forgive me,
Samuel, however, acted as if he hadn’t heard anything. He remained nestled in Celeste’s am.
His cheeks were plump, his eyes shone like stars, and he had a perfectly angled nose. He pursed his lips as he wrapped his hands around Celeste’s tack. It seemed at if he didn’t want to let go.
Celeste had always liked lids. She would hold any children whenever she had a chance. She had no intention of letting go of Samuel as he felt so salt and warm in her arms. Moreover, he was so well–behaved
Celeste seemed to feel an instant bond with him, which made her even more reluctant to let him go.
Faye grew increasingly and as Samuel remained silent. She couldn’t help but speak up again.
“Mr. Food Junior?
Sail finally reacted. He looked at Faye coldly and said, “You shouldn’t be apologizing to me, but this pretty lady here.”
Faye was utterly humiliated. She would never apologize to Celeste.
“What? You don’t want to? That’s time. I’ll ask my dad to reconsider wording with this company”
Samuel calmly instructed the bodyguards, “Let’s go.”
The bodyguards immediately released Faye and prepared to cart Samuel away, Louis panicked and quickly blocked their path. “Please wait, Mr. Ford Junior. Ms. all is very willing to apologize.”
Then, he gave rave a stem look and said, “Ms. Hall, the whole company worked hard to secure this deal with Ford Corporation. You can pack your things and leave If you want to ruin it. This company doesn’t need you.”
All color drained from Faye’s face. Samuel was determined to seek justice for Celeste. Faye knew that she would be nained it she didn’t apologize.
Finally, she gritted her teeth and sald relerantly, “Ainght I’ll do it. I’m sorry.”
“You don’t sound sincere.” Samuel looked at her disdainfully.
Faye took a deep breath, swallowed her pride, and said, “I’m sorry for how I treated you earlier, I truly apologize. Please forgive me
Celeste felt satisfied to see Faye humble herselt. She couldn’t help but laugh at the irony of it all. Faye usually looked down on others and abused her power. That day, she had no choice but to submit to others
Since Fave had complied, tous quickly stepped in to smooth things over
“Mr. Ford Junior, she’s apologized. We still have the deal, right?”
“She hasn’t cleaned the floor,” Samuel said.
Faye gritted her teeth and mambled, “I’ll clean it immediately.”
With that, she got the cleaning supplies and cleaned the floor in front of everyone until it was spotless.
The crowd watched the scene, feeling no sympathy for her. They had all witnessed how Faye usually treated Celeste and thought that the former truly deserved what she got
After Paye finished cleaning the floor, Sammell was finally satisfied.
“I’ll let what happened today slide. But I have one last request. She’s not allowed to join my birthday party.
Louls agreed wholeheartedly, “No problem at all!
“Then that’s all. I’m leaving now.
Samuel tomed to look at Celeste. She quickly moved to set him down.
That to her surprise, Salclung tightly to her and refused to let go, softly demanding, “Carry me to the car.”
