Joshua's voice was cold and low, every word ringing out loudly across the office.
Instantly, the entire office turned deadly quiet. Everyone stared at Joshua in shock. Actually, everyone knew the three of them were considered Luna's confidants in the company. And they all knew o f the awkward, sometimes there, sometimes nonexistent relationship between their director and their president. But now that he had his new love, Fiona, he was so cruel to his old love, Luna?
Fiona's words just now were enough to give both Joshua and Luna space to step backward and let the incident pass just like that. And yet Joshua took the initiative and suggested firing the three of them?
"Joshua..."
Fiona looked at Joshua, her eyes bright with how touched she was. "I'm fine, the three of them are Ms. Luna's right-hand men, she wouldn't want to see them fired. Don’t spoil the harmonious relationship between the two of you for me."
With Joshua’s support, even though her tone remained soft and gentle, there was an aura of arrogance behind them.
Luna stood in her spot, her hands quietly clenching into fists beside her. She raised her head and looked a
t Joshua coldly. "Why? Samson, Zayne, and Arianna all contributed greatly to our last project, they at least deserve credit for their efforts."
Joshua crossed his arms over his chest. "So, they can bully a newcomer just because they made contributions to the company? Even if they knew she belonged to me, they still openly discussed chasing her away, causing her so much harm on her first day itself?"
Luna narrowed her eyes. She glanced at the coffee stains on Fiona's chest that were almost dry by now and Arianna’s painful snarl appeared in her mind's eye. A chill swept across her features. She did not want to get into a fight over something as meaningless as this the moment she returned to the company, that’s why she was trying her best to avoid conflict. She was even willing to admit it was her three assistants' fault, going with Fiona’s plan and complimenting her. For her image, Fiona begrudgingly agreed to stop pursuing the matter.
