NovelEnglishChapter 159
A middle-aged man stood with his back to her, holding a glass in one hand while his other hand reached toward
the black stockings of a female employee's skirt.
Sensing something, the female employee spun around abruptly. The glass shook in her hand, spilling hot water
over the man. He yelped in pain, stumbling backward, barely managing to keep his balance.
"Hey! What are you doing? Are you trying to burn me?" the man yelled, his indignation flaring.
Angela stood at the door, her gaze fixed on the man. She recognized him instantly.
It was Hector Zander, a friend of Nora's, visiting the Graham Group for potential collaborations. Rumor had it that
he was interested in launching a major project. The woman nearly harassed was none other than Yvonne,
Angela's new assistant.
"You were clearly about to touch me. How dare you—" Yvonne started, her voice shaky.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"What nonsense are you saying? Don't slander me! When have | ever laid a finger on you?" Hector shot back,
interrupting Yvonne.
Yvonne caught sight of Angela from the corner of her eye and rushed toward her, tears welling up as if she had
just found a lifeline.
"Mr. Zander, you did try to touch her. | saw it, even if you didn't make contact," Angela said coldly, showing him
no respect.
Hector's expression turned to one of disbelief. He stared at Angela, stunned.
"Angela, are you out of your mind? How dare you accuseof such a thing?" Hector's voice was full of fury as
he marched toward the door, confident there was nothing she could do to him.
Yvonne's face went pale. "Ms. Graham, forget it. Let's just go back."
Hector had been invited by Nora and was treated as an honored guest by the design department. If he and
Angela clashed, he would surely retaliate.
Meanwhile, Yvonne, being new to the company, didn't want to stir trouble or drag Angela down with her. "We
can't let this slide. We haven't done anything wrong, so what's there to fear?" Angela declared firmly.
She locked eyes with Hector, her expression unwavering. "Mr. Zander, with so few people around right now, it
would be best for you to apologize so we can pretend this never happened. Otherwise.
A-QUM
Hector sneered, dismissing her completely. "What are you going to do? What can you do? Your wealthy
husband's family doesn't even take you seriously. Everyone knows that.
"Do you really think you matter? Apologize tonow, and maybe I'll let this go. Otherwise, there will be
consequences for you both."
Angela's anger flared. Every day seemed to bring more of these vile, disgusting situations.
"I may be the discarded wife of a rich family, but I'm still better than you. You're nothing but a cowardly
scoundrel, a pervert who preys on the weak while fearing the strong. Hector, you will apologize today, or else!"

Yvonne was stunned. A crowd had gathered outside the pantry, their expressions a mix of disbelief and curiosity.
Nora pushed her way through the crowd, shoving Angela aside. "What do you think you're doing? Are you crazy?
How dare you speak to Mr. Zander like that?"
"Forget it, Ms. Graham. Let's not argue," Yvonne said, her unease growing.
Angela hesitated for a moment, but Hector's taunting voice broke through.
"Ms. Rutherford, | honestly don't understand why your employees are being so unreasonable. They're accusing
