Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2709

"Was there anybody among the entire company who didn't hate you? Could you find a person who didn't hate you? I was the only one-"

Before Deacon finished his sentence, Eevonne cut him off. "What about it, Mister Lowe? You hated me incredibly so. Not only did you hate me, but all of the employees in your company also hated me. Under such circumstances, you did not care about the feelings of the others in the company, did not care that I was a liar and my academic qualifications were not that high, and you even forced yourself to put up with me just to give me a chance to work. Therefore, you've actually shown me great favor and kindness, haven't you?"

The way Eevonne asked him in return made Deacon incredibly exasperated."Of course! Otherwise, what do you think? It was because I pitied you back then. I had the mindset of giving you a chance, so I was purely tolerating you. I was forcing myself to tolerate you! Do you think that you're so capable at work?"

"Then why was it that when I was in your company back then, I had been moving about in front of you every day, disgusting so many of your employees every day, made a hot mess at work every day, did not bring in any profits, and even made the entire company uncomfortable, you could still give me a chance, let me stay and work, let me earn my paycheck, but now, when I'm no longer at your company, you can't tolerate me so anymore? Why must you be so vicious to me? Mister Lowe, are you going to eat your own words?" "You..." Deacon said.

"You have to know that I'm much more capable at work now compared to ten years ago. You were able to tolerate me back then, but you can't do it anymore now. Why?"

Deacon was speechless. He was cornered by Eevonne to the point that he could not say anything anymore.

"Mister Lowe, I am now in charge of the orders now. Every time I receive an order and want to pass it down, I have to

calculate the costs. After I've calculated everything, if it isn't going to make money for the company, according to our company's guidelines, we'd rather not do the business than accept orders that don't make any money. Because we don't accept it, we can take it easy, and we can even go for vacations. Therefore, for such a big company like the Ford Group that values humanism so much, they have their own standards, which is at the very least, the orders have to be profitable when it's at the budgeting stage. This goes to show that anyone who does business and is in a place for business, at the very least, has a cost budget that includes labor. As a businessman, no matter how compassionate he is, it's impossible for him to let his company keep an idler around. You can be compassionate about anything, but so many people's jobs and income are riding on the company. If you were to keep an idler around, you would be hurting everyone! You have been a businessman for so many years, so how could you not understand this? You understood better than anyone else, don't you?"

Eevonne was very calm when she asked him that. On the surface, she had no emotions at all.

That made Deacon feel like she has a sense of empathy, and he immediately answered, "It's great if you know that. If you know that, I also hope that you can understand why I came to the Ford Group to target you...

"Mister Lowe, that's not what I'm talking about." Eevonne sneered while looking at him.

"Huh?" He was in a state of slight confusion. He could not tell what Eevonne was thinking and did not know what she was going to do next. At that moment, Deacon suddenly realized that the girl in front of him was not easy to deal with. She was calm and was good at battling. He suddenly felt that he seemed to have made a mistake for coming to battle Eevonne that day.

Sure enough, Eevonne asked slowly and clearly, "What I’m saying is that when I was working in your company back then, you clearly knew that I was useful and you clearly knew that I worked very hard, but you still insulted my character without stopping! May I know, Mister Lowe, what was your intention back then?"
