Eevonne looked at Deacon calmly. "Mister Lowe, you're an adult and a boss of a company, so logically speaking, you should have thought it through before coming to this company, right? Why didn't you inquire beforehand if I had cheated or not?"
What she said was a direct equivalent of shaming Deacon. However, Eevonne did not intend to show Deacon mercy at all. She had never thought of turning back time and looking into who was right or wrong in the past. Also, she had never felt that what happened in the past was the fault of others. She thought that she was the one who made the biggest mistake. Even if she were to look into the past, it would be to reflect on her own mistakes, amend all of her mistakes, and then continue moving forward.
However, never in a million years would Eevone have expected that after so many years, after she had already forgotten about those painful experiences, Deacon could actually still come looking for her to expose her. Could a person's mind be so vicious? Since Deacon was pursuing the matter so relentlessly and was driving her into a dead end, then what should Eevonne still care for? She did not want to hold a grudge against anybody. However, she also did not want to be killed like an ant by others.
Since he has come to her door, she would face him directly and go head-to-head with him! In any case, she has incredibly sufficient confidence at that moment! Deacon was so infuriated that his face turned extremely purple. He never expected Eevonne would come at him like
that.
"Y-You're all capable now, aren't you? How dare you talk back to me? In the past, when you were in my company, you were always submissive and cowering like a dog wagging its tail to ask for pity. You're not like that now, aren’t you? You even dared to talk back to me?"
"Mister Lowe!" Eevonne immediately raised her voice. "Are you the king or do you have some powerful figures backing you up? Are you my parents? How could you talk to me like that? I’ll be straightforward with you. Since you've been so direct and that you're here to expose me today, then I must be clear with you. First of all, before I joined this company, I had already told the human resource department that my highest education obtained was middle school and I couldn't even get the middle school diploma. The first job I did in this company was to work odd jobs. I pushed a small cart around to deliver parcels to every department every day. I did this odd job for more than six months. During that period, I worked very hard and was very serious. I worked in this company during the day, and I also worked as a food delivery person at night. I know that you, both you and Dash, are going to tell all my superiors here at the Ford Group next that I once had a huge debt, I would betray the company for money, and I had once done such a thing. You would also say that I don't know how to speak Spanish, but I lied to you saying that I can speak Spanish. You would say that after I've fooled you, I was able to take the confidential information of the company out and sell the information to others when I looked for a Spanish translator. Isn't that right? However, I'll tell both of you very clearly now that ever since the first day I joined the Ford Group, I had been working two jobs. I was doing odd jobs in the Ford Group during the day, and then I would work as a food delivery person from eight at night to midnight. It has been like that every day. During the day, after I've completed all the odd jobs, I would take every opportunity to learn Spanish. Sometimes, I would even spend my toilet breaks memorizing Spanish terms. Not just now, but for many years before I started working at the Ford Group, I have also been persistently improving myself. Even when I owe more than one hundred thousand dollars, I still did not forget to learn. When I came to the Ford Group, I summarized all of my past mistakes and told the human resource department about my past without hiding anything at all. They have seen how I worked every day in the Ford Group. I got this job in the fashion department through my hard work. When my director promoted me at that time, I kept telling him that I don't have a diploma and I only have a middle school education."
