From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent (Anthea ) novel Chapter 281

Everyone at the office knew her as Cindy and showed her respect.

"Hi, I’d like to see Cindy," Lizzie announced as she approached the reception desk.

The receptionist looked up and smiled. "Hey, young lady. What do you need Cindy for?"

Lizzie returned the smile. "I'm a relative of hers. Could you please ask her to come out for a moment?"

Charmed by Lizzie's good looks and manners, the receptionist replied, "Cindy's now in the cafeteria grabbing lunch. I'll take you there."

"Thanks. I appreciate it."

The cafeteria was bustling, with over a hundred employees scattered around and immersed in their midday break.

Lizzie spotted Cindy instantly and marched up to her. Before Cindy could react, Lizzie landed a stinging slap across her face!

Slap!

Cindy was stunned, not even recognizing Lizzie, frowning as she said, "Who the heck are you? What gives you the right to hit me?"

"Bitch! You disgusting homewrecker! Shameless!" Lizzie slapped her again, shouting furiously, "You old tramp! You seduced my dad!"

At her words, all heads in the cafeteria turned their way, eyes wide with curiosity.

There was a shortage of everything but people who loved a juicy piece of gossip in this day and age.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm no mistress! You're slandering me!" Cindy stood up, her face a mask of panic. "Security! Someone call security!"

The receptionist was dumbfounded.

She had genuinely thought Lizzie was Cindy's relative, but that...

That was one spicy piece of drama that no one saw coming.

After all, Cindy had always been super professional, keeping it strictly business with the guys at work.

To everyone, she was a kind-hearted figure.

Undeterred, Lizzie pulled a thick stack of photos from her bag, flinging them into the air. Then she grabbed a megaphone. "Listen up, everyone! Look at Cindy, a shameless woman! She seduced my father, a married man, ruining a happy family! How could your company hire such a disgraceful employee? Here is the irrefutable proof. The man in these photos is my dad, and Cindy is the other woman!"

Amplified by the megaphone, her voice filled every corner of the cafeteria.
