Chapter 764: Chapter 464: I Bullied You? Who Do You Think You Are?
After Ivy Miller entered the security room, she asked someone to check the surveillance cameras. Although there weren’t any cameras inside the office,
there was one at the entrance. Employees started entering the office at 7:15 this morning.
And during this period, no one left.
This means the file must still be in the office; she just didn’t know whose hands it was in.
She thought carefully, and the only person who could possibly be against her like this was Supervisor Liu.
However, coincidentally, Supervisor Liu was not the first person to enter the office.
She wouldn’t dare blatantly steal the file in front of others.
After returning to the office, she walked to the desk of the first employee who entered: "Hello, I went to the surveillance room, and today you were the first to come to the office to work.
After you arrived, did you see anyone lingering around my desk?"
The female employee shook her head firmly: "I didn’t notice; I went out shortly after I came in."
Ivy furrowed her brow. This person was lying. She watched the surveillance until she entered the office herself.
And during this time, except for a few people going to the break room, no one left the office.
Why is she lying? Could it be because she actually knows who took her file?
Ivy turned her head to look at Supervisor Liu, seeing her staring back with a sinister smirk.
She clenched her fists. This matter couldn’t be unrelated to Supervisor Liu.
She nodded and loudly asked the people in the office again: "I’ll ask once more, did no one really touch my file?
If no one admits to it, then I’ll have to call the police.
I just checked the surveillance, and after we came into the office today, no one left.
The file must still be in the office, so I hope the person who took it stops this prank."
She finished speaking and looked at the first female employee in the office. That employee nervously furrowed her brow, lowered her eyes, and opened the file in her hand.
Ivy scoffed; she clearly knew, and she was feeling guilty.
Still, no one spoke up, so Ivy had to pull out her phone and dial 110: "Hello, I need to report a theft. I’ve lost something very important in my office, can you..."
She hadn’t finished speaking before Supervisor Liu had already stepped forward, snatched her phone, and told the person on the other end: "Sorry, we found the lost item; you don’t need to come."
Ivy glared at Supervisor Liu: "What do you mean by this?"
"What do I mean?" Supervisor Liu shoved the phone back into her arms: "I’m telling you, this isn’t a prank. I put your file away.
This is to teach you a lesson; as a company employee, I hope you strictly adhere to the company’s regulations.
If a corporate spy had taken the file I found on your desk today, causing major losses to the company, could you be responsible?"
Ivy felt a surge of rage in her heart. She had wanted to suppress her anger.
But truly, Supervisor Liu’s attitude left her unable to remain calm.
She stepped in front of Supervisor Liu: "Enough, are you a psychopath?
You were talking about how I drove an Audi to work yesterday.
Now you’re pulling this stunt today. If I made a mistake and deserve punishment, I’ll take it.
But who are you to steal my files?"
"Steal? Are you crazy?"
"You’re the one who’s crazy. My file was on my desk, and you took it without saying a word.
I asked twice, and you refused to say anything about who took my file.
Taking without asking is stealing; haven’t you been educated? Don’t you know what that means?"
Supervisor Liu gave Ivy a shove: "Ivy, are you out of your mind? You really do say whatever comes to your mind.
As a supervisor, I was reprimanding you, and you talk back, fine. But now you’re accusing me of theft?
I won’t let this slide."
Ivy let out a cold laugh: "Likewise, I won’t let this slide.
You’re just using your seniority to act like a big shot.
Honestly, if I had worked at this company as long as you have, my professional skills would be better than yours.
Moreover, I would be a more decent person than you."
Supervisor Liu nodded at Ivy’s sharp words: "Fine, very well, Ivy, come with me to the manager’s office, and we’ll sort this out."
Fine, Ivy followed Supervisor Liu into Manager Tan’s office.
As soon as they left, the office erupted into a commotion.
Everyone knew Supervisor Liu had connections, and they unanimously believed this time Ivy was doomed.
After all, even Manager Tan would give Supervisor Liu some face.
After Supervisor Liu roughly explained the situation to Manager Tan, he looked at Ivy with a furrowed brow: "Ivy, why can’t you control your temper?
This is a company, not your home. If you want to throw tantrums, go home; here, no one is obliged to indulge you."
"Manager Tan, I accept punishment for the parts I did wrong.
But for the parts where I didn’t do anything wrong, I hope you can be fair.
It was my fault for leaving the file on the desk, but was Supervisor Liu right to steal it?
She could have reprimanded me; if she had done so as soon as I arrived this morning for this matter, I would have nothing to say.
But she treated me like this; who can stand it?
Manager Tan, I’m not afraid of hardship, but I really can’t accept this; Supervisor Liu is too unfair to us newbies.
There must be a limit to bullying."
"I’m bullying you? Who do you think you are, you..."
Before Supervisor Liu could finish speaking, Manager Tan slammed the table angrily: "Enough, are you two not done yet? This is a company; how many times do I have to say it?
Supervisor Liu, as a senior employee, please be a bit more considerate of your subordinates.
Ivy is new to the company; it’s impossible she won’t make any mistakes.
If she makes a mistake, help her correct it; over time, she’ll improve.
Stop being so adversarial towards her; it does no one any good.
Look, after your argument, how can you continue working like nothing happened?"
"Manager Tan, why...why are you siding with someone who doesn’t follow the rules?"
"Yes, she did something wrong, but didn’t she say she was willing to accept punishment for her mistakes?
So you also have a fault; you have to admit it, right?"
Supervisor Liu turned to glare at Ivy, and the two locked eyes, their gazes equally fierce.
Finally, Supervisor Liu huffed coldly and turned to leave.
Ivy stood there thinking that from now on, she and Supervisor Liu were officially at odds.
Looking at that woman, she didn’t seem easy to deal with, so it might be better to be cautious.
"Ivy."
Manager Tan’s voice brought Ivy back to attention: "Manager Tan."
"What’s your relationship with the CEO’s secretary?"
