Chapter 31
Joe and Skylar even looked away at the same time.
“You can deal with this,” Joe said while looking at Paul. Then, he strolled out of the office area’s main doors as he had only passed by the space.
Paul knew about Joe and Skylar’s relationship; they were secretly married and didn’t want others to know about it. That was why he couldn’t formally greet Skylar.
Still, the fact that Joe had let Paul handle things meant Joe didn’t want Skylar to be picked on.
The irony was Skylar hadn’t gotten bullied by the others. In fact, she had even beaten someone up as
though she was bringing the wrongdoers to justice.
Despite that, one could only blame Sadie for mistreating Skylar and being unlucky enough to bump into
Joe.
With that in mind, Paul ordered, “Check the surveillance footage and see if these women have framed our
employee. If that’s the case, call the police at once.”
That rattled the manager at once.
Sadie’s arrogant expression dropped. “What?”
Even Maisy paled in sheer shock. “Mr. Martin may have asked you to deal with our case, but do you
seriously plan to resolve the issue this way?”
Skylar didn’t give away the fact that she knew Paul. She nodded at the latter neutrally as thanks.
Janine said to Paul, “Thank you for believing me.”
That was when Paul’s voice took a stern shift, and he turned to face the manager. “As for you, this
incident has demonstrated your unprofessionalism, as well as your inability to remain unfazed and
unblased.
“Go and collect another month’s salary from the finance department. Then, I want you to resign of your
own will,”
The manager had just texted the office group chat, asking someone to go through the surveillance footage for the elevator. He’d never imagined that he’d get fired immediately after.
This job position was the best he’d gotten in years. It came with a high monthly salary and a great working environment. He couldn’t believe he’d gotten fired for defending the hotel’s guests.
Meanwhile, Sadie and Maisy were freaking out.
Sadie glared daggers at Skylar and Janine, thinking it had been a waste to treat Skylar so well these past
six months.
She felt betrayed by the fact that Skylar had sided with Janine to attack her. It infuriated her to no end.

Yet, she refused to involve the police in this incident. After all, the surveillance cameras had caught her. red–handed.
Her eyes darted down as she exclaimed, “Gosh! What’s my ring doing here? This incident is a misunderstanding.
“I didn’t lose my ring, so you guys don’t have to check the surveillance footage or call the police anymore. It’s my mistake.”
Maisy tolerated the pain in her cheek from being slapped as she played along. “Oh, so it was in your bag, Mom. It seems this was all a misunderstanding.”
