Mariela tugged at the corner of her mouth and said coldly, “Fine, I’ll patch up this hole for you today. Don’t make me deal with clients like this who are full of nonsense in the future.”
Skyla didn’t believe that Mariela had such great abilities. She spoke firmly, “Before the end of today’s work, I want to see the contract you signed and the payment records from the other party. If you don’t have them, don’t bother coming in tomorrow. According to the law firm’s personnel regulations and labor laws, you have caused significant losses to the firm. The firm has the right to dismiss you without any compensation!” Mariela looked cold and indifferent, “I knew.”
Mariela walked out of Skyla’s office, passing by Braxton’s office.
Braxton had just reached the doorway when he came face to face with Mariela.
Braxton sneered, “Well, Ms. Logan, after offending the client and losing such a big case last night, you still have the audacity to come to work? If it were me, I wouldn’t even show my face in public.” Mariela coldly glanced at him, ignoring him, and brushed past him to return to her own office.
In no time, Mariela received a message from Gia.
Did you see that Ms. Logan, Ms. Castillo, and Mr. Mckee all tagged you in their Instagram posts?
She then sent two screenshots, which were Macy and Braxton’s Instagram.
Macy:“Some women have no shame. They are young and capable, yet they don’t work hard and rely on their looks to find a sugar daddy to support them. It’s a disgrace to the legal profession for someone like that to be a lawyer.”
Braxton:“Someone is really disgusting. If you don’t need money, then don’t come out to work. Just stay with your old man who drives a Cullinan. Coming out to work only brings trouble with clients and loses big cases. It also drags me down. You’re being kept by an old man and still pretending to be high and mighty in front of clients. It’s like having the best of both worlds.”
Mariela saw a screenshot and clicked on Macy’s Instagram, only to find that she had been blocked.
Similarly, Braxton also blocked her.
Mariela saved these two screenshots.
She replied and asked Gia.
How do
you know they were talking about me if these two statements didn’t mention any names? Gia:“Ms. Logan, I heard them talking privately that you were being financially supported. I heard that it was initially spread by Ms. Castillo and Mr. Mckee.”
They even created a group specifically to gossip about
you,
but
group. weren’t in that you
you
I’ll send the screenshots to see.
In no time, Gia sent over thirty screenshots, and Mariela looked at each one, her anger rising.
She thought that inviting everyone to have a meal at a high–end restaurant would improve the relationship with her colleagues. However, she didn’t expect that while they were polite and greeted her with smiles on the surface, behind her back they spoke of her in such a derogatory
manner.
