There was a moment of discomfort shown on Eevonne's face, but she regained her composure in a blink of an eye.
"Miss Cain, as long as you don’t break the law, I’ll have no complaints." Eevonne looked at Phoebe calmly.
"Wow, you're unexpectedly still able to remain calm in the face of a disaster, Eevonne. You must have spent ten years training to get such a skill, haven't you?” Phoebe looked at Eevonne with the intention to mock.
Eevonne was still very calm. "I refuse to answer you."
"You!" Phoebe uttered.
It was after a pause that she scolded Eevonne with slight exasperation. "Don't be so smug! It's your doomsday today! Mister Lowe, you go first!"
Phoebe looked at Deacon. Deacon's face was still very stern. At that moment, in the reception room of the Ford Group, Deacon could only be considered as a person from the partner company. However, he glared at Eevonne with a gaze as if he was a ruler and a judge. At the same time, there were still people from the Ford Group entering the reception room one after the other. The majority of the people were high-ranking executives of the Ford Group. Also, a part of them were Eevonne's colleagues and superiors from the fashion department.
The last person to enter was Dash. Were both Dash and Deacon joining hands to deal with her? Judging from the situation at that moment, it looked like it. Eevonne laughed miserably in her heart. She lifted her head and looked at her colleagues and superiors who packed the entire reception room. She suddenly felt that that was probably the place where she would die of embarrassment. If she was able to pull through this kind of situation, she truly would be reborn after that.
If . if she was unable to pull through it that day, then that place would be her burial ground. Eevonne felt incomparably terrified for a moment. She hoped that Kingston was by her side to provide her strength.
However, she also hoped that Kingston was not by her side to see all the embarrassing things she had done in the past, even though she had once told Kingston about all the embarrassing things without concealing anything at all. She still did not have the courage to face Kingston. At that moment, she only had two paths that she could take. One was to die. The other was to try to fight. They said that the brave would win when opponents meet inevitably on a narrow path.
At that moment, Eevonne suddenly realized that maybe when a person was facing trouble, bravely resolving the trouble and problem would give the person a sense of achievement and happiness. Thinking of that, Eevonne immediately smiled and looked at everyone present calmly. In the end, her gaze landed on Deacon.
"Mister Lowe, please go ahead with what you have to say. If I had done anything wrong and had brought trouble and inconvenience to you, I'll apologize to you here."
Deacon sneered. "Would a mere apology be enough to clear your charges?" Charges? Eevonne laughed at herself in her heart. It has already escalated to committing a crime? How pathetic.
"Alright. I won't apologize anymore. Please be direct with whatever you want to say then." Eevonne shrugged, and then sat down to wait for the storm to come.
"Eevonne! You first have to come clean, how did you sneak into this company?" Deacon has already completely changed an interrogative tone.
"I didn't sneak in," Eevonne answered honestly.
Deacon suddenly slammed the table and stood up. "Eevonne, I truly have underestimated your despicable nature. I blame myself very much as well. You had worked at my company for three years back then, but I couldn’t change you for the better. I actually let you come out and continue harming others! I truly have never expected that after you left my company, caused Dash to lose his job, and ran away from home for a year, I still couldn't get rid of you."
