"Is that why you had the audacity to leak the company's confidential docunts and fra colleagues?" he asked coldly.
Questioned by him, she was speechless.
"I…"
Indeed, what she had done was too much, and it couldn't be smoothed over with her hard work and their friendly relation for six years.
"Mr. President, I..." Mr. Lee spoke with hesitation.
"What," Alexander gave him an indifferent look, "are you going to talk with about our friendly relation as well?"
"No." Mr. Lee shook his head. He wasn't Helena, and he knew Alexander better, so he didn't have unrealistic hopes.
When Alexander said he was going to fire them, Mr. Lee knew that Alexander had known everything. It was just that there was still unwillingness in the bottom of his heart.
He asked in disbelief, "Are you really going to fire one of your vice-presidents and a secretary for just a woman?"
"Being biased, deceiving your superior, and deluding your subordinates shows that you're not eligible for the Vice President," Alexander said peacefully. "Of course, given our years of friendly relation and your ability, it's a little cruel of to fire you. But it would be best if you hadn't hurt her. She was soone who I care about the most."
This sentence instantly made Mr. Lee give up hope totally. But as a man, he knew what Alexander ant.
"I see..." Mr. Lee stood up with a dejected look on his face. "It was really my fault this ti. I'm willing to accept the punishnt."
In a flash, Helena next to him was more anxious. Since even the Vice President had accepted the punishnt, what else could she do as a little secretary? Moreover, Alexander's last sentence broke her heart and left her in despair.
Why could Heather Denmark win his heart while she couldn't impress Alexander even if she had been staying by him for so many years? Why could Heather make it? Even if she couldn't be with Alexander, she wouldn't allow Heather to be with him!
"Mr. President! I don't understand!" Helena, whose eyes were full of emotions showing that she didn't want to give up, shouted hysterically, "What's so good about Heather? You know what? She's been gossiping around the office, telling others that you have a special relationship with her, and you value her because you are chasing her.
"Also, she spread the rumor that H & C Inc. was made of the initials of her na and your surna! She goes around saying you founded H & C Inc. for her! She has been in the company for a short ti, but she has actually told so many lies! Such a woman is not good enough for you at all!"
Helena's eyes glowed with hatred. She exaggerated the truth and made sothing up to make Alexander hate Heather!
Now, seeing Alexander's surprise in his eyes, she was delighted!
"You are mistaken." He said calmly, "Heather didn't spread those rumors."
"Of course, she would never admit she has done that!" Helena fud. "If it weren't her, who else would spread the rumors to her advantage in the company?"
"What I said is true. Because," a thick sneer flashed in his eyes," I spread those rumors."
Helena felt as if she had been struck so hard in the chest that she almost spat out a mouthful of thick blood!
Was it actually Alexander himself who had spread those rumors? No wonder... If this kind of rumor had ever been spread before, Alexander would definitely investigate and find out who had spread them! Nonetheless, this ti he completely ignored it.
Although she had followed him for many years, it was the first ti that she had been so devastated!
Alexander continued as if she hadn't been. hit hard enough. "But you're right about one thing."
Helena looked hopefully at him. She had known such a man like Alexander would nurse a grudge against Heather Denmark.
"I did create H & C Inc. for Heather, and H is the initial for Heather," he said lightly. Although he knew Helena had lied about the rumors, he was willing to say more since soone rarely guessed his intentions.
Helena stumbled as her face was ashen.
When she thought she had been hit enough, Alexander was willing to push her further and make her more devastated.
Helena didn't even rember how she walked out of the President's office. She went through the formalities for leaving with a muddled head. A company announcent had co out, and everyone knew that she had leaked the company's designs and frad Heather.
Whoever she saw seed to her to be talking about her and laughing at her. After completing the severance procedure, she almost escaped from H & C Inc.
When she walked out of the building, she looked back, and tears began to run down her cheeks as she still didn't want to give up. Why did it co to this? She had intended to hurt Heather, but how could she end up hurting herself instead?
Helena didn't feel she had been wrong. She just felt that she had been so careless that Alexander had caught her.
"No, I can't just leave it at that!" Helena thought, gritting her teeth and dialed a number. "Hello! I want you to release all the designs now!"
Even if she couldn't hurt Heather, she was going to have her work destroyed.
"I can't do that, I've been fired by your President," the man on the other end of the phone said.
"What nonsense!" Helena shuddered in anger. "You're in Skyline Corporation. How could you get fired by our President?"
"You don't know that?" he was surprised and explained, "Skyline Corporation has been acquired by H & C Inc.."
Helena was completely bewildered. "What? When did this happen?"
"An hour ago," sighed the man, "and your President had Skyline Corporation send a Twitter ssage, publishing all the designs and claiming they were created by Heather Denmark, a new designer at H & C Inc.. This will be the first assistance to Skyline Corporation from H & C Inc after the acquisition."
Helena's hand slipped and dropped her phone to the ground. Her whole body stiffened. Alexander had actually bought Skyline Corporation for Heather?!
Did he do it so that Heather wouldn't have to waste her efforts? Helena felt as though she had been completely hit. She was picking up the phone in dejection when she saw an unexpected figure flashed before her eyes.
That was Heather Denmark!
Helena gritted her teeth hard. She had been right. The person was Heather Denmark indeed. It was just that she was actually driving a Porsche!
Helena was taken aback. How did Heather get such a nice car? Without hesitation, Helena stopped a taxi and ran after Heather.
Heather didn't go very far. Helena followed her all the way to a luxury private club.
When we saw Heather walk in, Helena tried to get in as well, but the waiter stopped her. "I'm sorry, madam. We can only let mbers in."
"Then give a mbership!" Helena said furiously.
"You need to pay a million dollars at a ti to beco a regular mber here. Do you need to register?" The waiter looked at her up and down. He didn't think she could afford it.
"What?!" Helena scread in surprise.
Could Heather Denmark actually enter such a place unimpeded?
