"You- Shirley's fists clenched again. "Imogen, you're definitely getting fired! You don't deserve to stay here
anymore."
"It was clearly you who provoked me first. How dare you accuse me?" Shirley angrily rebuked. "Don't make such
false claims. I was the one getting beaten. I just went to the infirmary to: get an injury diagnosis report," Corinne
countered.
"You" Shirley seethed, her chest heaving. Back at the military base, she was the young miss of the Lloyd Family, and
no one would bear ill will toward her. This was the first time she had encountered someone so shameless.
At that moment, Roy came inside, and Corinne immediately said to Shirley, "Imogen, I will not accept your apology.
You'd better leave this place!"
By now, Shirley had seen through Corinne's character and knew the latter would resort to anything just to make her
leave. Then, Roy comforted Corinne, "Alright, stop. arguing. Mr. Flintstone is on his way here."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCorinne was instantly filled with surprise. Does this mean Zacharias will be personally firing Imogen?
Meanwhile, Shirley was shocked and asked, "He's on his way here?"
Roy sternly explained, "Although you're interns, this is a place of discipline, not somewhere you can do whatever
you want. Now, both of you, go stand in the courtyard outside." Feeling somewhat aggrieved, Corinne asked,
"Captain Barlowe, do I have to go too?"
Roy nodded. "You both caused this commotion, so both of you are to be punished."
Shirley lowered her head and stood upright in the courtyard. Meanwhile, though Corinne was also being punished,
she was already anticipating Zacharias' arrival.
A while later, Zacharias' convoy arrived, and Roy quickly approached and opened the back door of the second
vehicle. Zacharias stepped out, his gaze sweeping over the two girls standing in the courtyard before finally landing
on Shirley.
Meanwhile, Shirley's gaze shifted slightly to the side and met his gaze. She became anxious, hoping Zacharias
would forgive her this once and wouldn't dismiss her.
On the other hand, Corinne might have been standing upright, but grievance had begun filling her eyes. She was
waiting for Zacharias to come over and comfort her. However, Zacharias didn't approach her but instructed Roy,
"Get Imogen to come into the lounge."
Seeing that Zacharias wanted to personally talk to Shirley, Roy turned to glance at her. "Imogen, follow Mr.
Flintstone into the lounge."
Shirley nodded and heard Corinne's whisper. "You're dead." Shirley ignored Corrine, bowed her head, and followed
Zacharias' elegant figure into the lounge. Once both of them entered the room, the man quickly spoke up. "Close
the door."
Shirley closed the door, having no idea what the man wanted to say to her.
"Explain. Why did such an incident happen?" Zacharias sat on the couch with his slim, long legs elegantly crossed
together. His starry eyes bore into her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Shirley saw that he was giving her a chance to explain, she spoke truthfully. "I came to retrieve the keys I left
behind, but Corinne suddenly stopped me, claiming she had something to say. I followed her to the corner, but she
punched me without saying anything. I wanted her to apologize, but she refused, so I decided to make her
apologize in my way."
Zacharias believed her because Corinne was obviously a person with ulterior motives. Besides that, Shirley had
lived a sheltered life under her parents' protection at the military base. So, while she was skilled in combat, she also
had a straightforward personality and was never on guard against deceitful people.
"Alright. I believe you." Zacharias gazed at her with his clear eyes, affirming her. Upon seeing that he let her explain
everything and believed her, Shirley couldn't help but anxiously say, "Mr. Flintstone, please don't dismiss me. I can
make up for this incident."
Zacharias raised a brow. "What are you willing to do in order to make up for this incident?"
"Anything." Shirley's clear eyes were filled with determination. Zacharias smiled slightly as he thought, Anything?
This young lady is indeed inexperienced. Will she be willing to do anything I ask her to?
