Chapter 267: Chapter 267: Unlucky Day

Upon receiving the news, Moira Young had no choice but to set off to the company.

Meanwhile, Fiona Rhodes had long been informed of Moira Young’s visit to the company and was intentionally waiting in the company lobby just to humiliate Moira.

Because of the incident where Moira Young hit Julie, whatever little goodwill she had in the company dwindled down to nothing.

Moreover, Fiona Rhodes had strong influence, having drawn everyone under her wing, making Moira Young completely the target in AE Company.

Moira Young had just stepped into the company and was stopped right away.

"Please show your work badge." The security guard glanced at Moira Young with cold eyes, showing her no respect.

Joe froze for a moment, suddenly coming to his senses, stepped forward to question him, "What’s with you? Don’t you recognize our sister Moira? What’s the need for a work badge?"

"I don’t care who Moira is, entering the company requires a work badge, that’s the rule." The security guard pushed Joe aside, only caring about the work badge.

Judging from his attitude, if Moira Young couldn’t present a work badge today, he was determined not to let her in.

"Are you crazy? Sister Moira is an artist, even if you’re blind you should recognize her? Besides, the company can directly fingerprint punch in, why need a work badge?"

This security guard was clearly finding fault, their company had been established for so many years, never using work badges for security reasons.

Either face unlocks or fingerprint punch-ins, when has it ever used work badges?

"Without a work badge, please leave." The security guard was ruthless.

This was evidently intended as deliberate difficulty, Joe rolled up his sleeves ready to argue but was pulled back by Moira Young.

She was puzzled, "Sister Moira?"

Unexpectedly, Moira Young calmly took out two work badges from her bag, one for herself, and one for Joe.

Seeing this, Joe suddenly widened his eyes in disbelief, "Sister Moira, when did you get these?"

Although they could enter the company without a work badge for clocking in, it was still necessary to have one for proving they were part of AE when going out.

Joe was surprised because since the company formally changed from HM to AE, they hadn’t switched work badges, where did Moira Young get these two new work badges?

As if seeing through Joe’s confusion, Moira Young explained, "Lee gave it to me the day I returned to the company, forgot it when I casually tossed it in my bag."

Indeed, Moira Young was carrying the LV bag she took on the day she returned to the company.

The security guard looked at the two brand new work badges, his face instantly turned grim like he had eaten crap, he impatiently waved at Moira Young and Joe, "Hurry up and go in!"

Joe proudly held her head high at him, a snob.

Moira Young didn’t make things difficult for him, she was aware that perhaps all of this was within Fiona Rhodes’s arrangements.

It seemed like there was a tough battle to fight after entering the company, and this was just a prelude.

Once inside, Joe could also feel that the atmosphere was somewhat off, the originally bustling lobby was now uncharacteristically quiet, as if there wasn’t a soul.

She tentatively walked ahead of Moira Young, just raised her foot, and suddenly stumbled.

Moira Young couldn’t grab hold of her, she had already fallen heavily on the ground.

"Ouch." Joe grimaced in pain.

"How are you? Are you alright?" Moira Young frowned, looking carefully, there was actually a puddle on the floor, she tentatively tapped it with her foot, it was clearly soapy water.

Joe wrinkled her face in a bunch, standing up slowly with Moira Young’s support, then shook her head, "Just a bit sore on the butt, otherwise still okay."

Who was so mean-spirited, pouring a cup of water right in the middle of the road!

Every move of theirs was watched by Fiona Rhodes, and Julie beside her shook her head in disappointment, full of unwillingness, "Why is Joe always messing things up!"

Originally given her position, she shouldn’t have walked ahead of Moira Young, now it was better, wanting to see Moira Young’s embarrassing side backfired again.

"Your little tricks are only useful against Joe, but not against Moira Young."

Having known Moira Young for so long, Fiona Rhodes understood her too well.

"Don’t be fooled by her always looking pitiful, she has got deep schemes behind."

"Sister Fiona, then what should we do next?" Julie stomped her feet in dissatisfaction, feeling unwilling.

Fiona Rhodes sneered twice, "Just wait. It’s not so easy for her to get into the company."

Sure enough, Moira Young came in through the door, first was the security guard finding fault, then Joe fell. Soon after, she bumped into someone, and that person just had to be the HR manager.

Endlessly blamed Moira Young for quite some time before finally letting her go.

Until Moira Young got on the elevator, she finally had a moment of peace.

Joe was practically fuming, taking advantage of the absence of people to quickly complain, "Sister Moira, what’s with these people? They insist on bumping into us causing trouble, and yet blame us?"

"To pass judgment regardless of the guilt, is the most foolish way to argue with them." Moira Young murmured softly, but a hint of coldness emerged in her eyes.

"So we are really just going to let it go?" Joe wanted to resist but upon thinking of Fiona Rhodes’s identity, her eyebrows drooped down again, "We seem not to be Fiona Rhodes’s match, even resistance is futile."

Moira Young didn’t speak, but was pondering in her heart.

Arriving at the office floor, knocking on Lee’s office, it turned out there was no one inside.

She frowned slightly, just about to turn away but met Julie’s resentful eyes.

"Moira Young, you finally showed up."

"Anything?" Moira Young didn’t bother giving Julie a glance, let alone the crowd behind Julie hoping for drama.

"Nothing, just wanted to invite you for a cup of coffee, I don’t think you’ll refuse, right?" Julie said invitingly, yet her attitude was lofty like a peacock, with a hint of scorn in her words.

Moira Young didn’t want to waste words with her, pulling Joe to bypass Julie and leave.

Who knew Julie was not planning to let them go, with a wave of her hand, the group behind her spontaneously formed a large circle, enclosing Moira Young and Joe inside.

Julie laughed coldly, "Oh? Haven’t had the coffee yet, want to leave? Did I say you could go?"

"What do you mean?"

"Moira Young, are you really dumb or pretending to be? You should be aware hitting me would not just settle it, right?" Julie sneered twice, suddenly raised her voice, "Today I must seek justice for myself."

So that’s it.

Moira Young’s face, usually calm, showed a slight ripple, she spoke faintly, "Last time you brought it upon yourself."

"Fine, today let’s see which is tougher, your mouth or my slap." As she spoke, Julie raised her hand and slapped fiercely toward Moira Young’s face, the speed was shockingly fast.

Slap!

The loud slap made everyone more aware.
