Reborn on Wedding Night: Flirting the Cold Bigshot into Blushes-Chapter 423: She Is Without Name or Status
Thomas Carter was still panicking about whether he could keep his job when he heard what Nancy Allen said.
He was so nervous he stuttered, "I... this... this really okay? I’m afraid of causing you... trouble."
Nancy Allen calmly said, "It’s no trouble. Your sister is very well-behaved, and besides, no one is at the flower shop."
Nancy Allen looked at the little girl and asked, "What’s your name?"
"Ruby Carter."
"That’s a nice name, Ruby. The clerk for my flower shop won’t arrive from the Capital City for a few days. The flower shop is empty these days, and I need someone to take care of it. Can you help me with this?"
Ruby Carter quickly nodded and said, "I can do it. I can help."
Nancy Allen smiled warmly, "Thank you, then."
Thomas Carter finally reacted, pulling Ruby and bowing to Nancy Allen, hastily saying, "No, we should thank you, ma’am. Ruby, quickly thank the lady. Thank you!"
Seeing the still bewildered Ruby, Nancy Allen ruffled her hair gently and said softly, "Ruby Carter, your brother needs you."
Ruby Carter’s body stiffened, and her eyes became slightly red.
Thomas Carter, with his big heart, was still expressing gratitude and didn’t hear Nancy Allen’s words.
The receptionist on the side watched this scene, becoming increasingly jealous of Thomas Carter.
A security guard who knew nothing—how could he so easily curry favor with the higher-ups? She had worked hard for so long, but none of the higher-ups had ever paid her any attention.
This Thomas Carter, Hailey Smith is polite to him, Basil Smith delivers food to him, and even this occasionally appearing lady is willing to help him.
Why does a fool like him have such good luck!
The receptionist couldn’t help but say, "Ma’am, the company has its rules. People who break the rules shouldn’t stay in the company; it’s not appropriate."
Nancy Allen heard this, turned to look at the receptionist, and asked, "Are you from the HR department?"
The receptionist was stunned for a moment, then shook her head, "No."
Nancy Allen said coldly, "Then why are you overstepping your bounds, meddling in the hiring and firing of company personnel?"
The receptionist’s face turned a mix of green and red.
Nancy Allen continued, "Regardless of the consequences, you feel free to speak hurtful words without taking any responsibility, is that it?"
The receptionist, with a steely face, replied, "Am I wrong?"
Nancy Allen sarcastically replied, "The storage room in the corner is where the cleaning lady puts her tools. Ruby Carter stayed quietly in the storage room, not daring to step out. During this time, Thomas Carter diligently did his job as a security guard, yet when you were scolding, you ignored a customer who wanted to come forward for consultation. Who was negligent in their work? Do I need to say more? The easiest people to bully in this world are the honest ones, but why should honest people be bullied!"
During those youthful days of being bullied, Nancy Allen countless times wished for someone to appear and help her out.
Seeing the similarly frail Ruby Carter, Nancy Allen inexplicably wanted to help the siblings.
Nancy Allen took out her phone, dialed a number, and said coldly, "Basil, I think your company’s receptionist should be replaced. When hiring, the company should at least consider basic politeness, before skills."
After speaking, Nancy Allen hung up the phone.
This receptionist, stimulated by Nancy Allen’s words, already envied Nancy’s high-born status and immediately shouted, "Do you know how hard I worked to get into Cloudglow? You high-ups can make us lose our job with a single call, is there any point in doing this?"
Nancy Allen originally didn’t want to say much, but hearing this she couldn’t help but laugh, so she replied, "And do you know what this job means to Thomas Carter?"
The receptionist didn’t feel ashamed at all, thinking that a fool like Thomas Carter, without education or brains, how could he compare to her.
She, angry and frustrated, said, "Who do you think you are! Just a nameless woman, how dare you order people around at Cloudglow!"
"Because she’s my woman, the only mistress of Imperial Garden!"
Julius Shaw came down personally.
Everyone in the lobby was shocked.
Dude, for such a small matter, is it really necessary for the company president to handle it personally?
Nancy Allen thought, maybe it’s because Basil is busy, and Julius Shaw has nothing much to do, so he was asked to handle this.
As Nancy Allen anticipated, Basil was indeed busy. After Godfery Shaw disappeared, most of the company’s affairs fell onto Basil’s shoulders.
Julius Shaw came to handle it, both because he was idle enough, and, on the other hand, he wanted to take the opportunity to see more of Nancy.
Julius Shaw walked directly toward Nancy Allen and asked, "Nancy, are you okay?"
Nancy Allen shook her head.
The receptionist was startled by Julius Shaw’s appearance and hurriedly explained, "I didn’t mean to be disrespectful, Boss Shaw, I’ve been working diligently at the company for three years... the lady... she doesn’t know the truth, so she’s helping Thomas Carter. It’s all Thomas Carter instigating things!"
However, Julius Shaw didn’t care about the truth; without asking for details, he disdainfully told the receptionist, "Settle your wages immediately and get out!"
Daring to say those words to Nancy, letting her off with just rolling is already being lenient.
Julius Shaw, because of these words, also suddenly realized that Nancy’s identity at Imperial Garden is indeed unclear.
The receptionist slumped into her chair, her face ashen.
She never expected that instead of getting rid of the detested Thomas Carter, she lost that job so many envied.
Nancy Allen felt that wielding power for justice once in a while was indeed delightful.
Some people always think that good education and image justify looking down on those who wear shabby clothes and work earnestly by the rules.
Yet in this world, no one is born to be bullied by you.
After Julius Shaw dealt with the matter, he asked Nancy Allen, "Nancy, are you going to the flower shop? Let me take you there."
Nancy Allen shook her head, "Not going yet, I have some things to do."
Julius Shaw looked at the tense Thomas Carter nearby and casually remarked, "Is it about this person? For his sister’s illness, arrange a comprehensive check-up at the hospital later, the costs will be borne by the company."
Thomas Carter finally came to his senses, hurriedly waving, "No need, no need, my sister isn’t a company employee, how could we claim company expenses? Having the lady help settle my sister is more than enough thankfulness. Thank you, Boss Shaw, thank you, ma’am. I will do my security job well."
Julius Shaw frowned, not particularly liking such troublesome matters.
He felt that if he wanted to help, just accept it, not wanting to get too involved.
Nancy Allen, however, believed Thomas Carter was honest with good character.
Nancy Allen said to Julius Shaw, "No need to trouble so much. For his sister’s illness, in a few days, Mr. Bailey will come to give me a check-up. I’ll ask Mr. Bailey to take a look at her as well."
Julius Shaw nodded, initially unwilling to bother, but insisted, "Then I’ll take you to the flower shop."
Nancy Allen wanted to refuse, but thinking about it, Julius Shaw was the kind of person who wouldn’t listen to others.
She didn’t want to engage in a battle of wits over such a trivial matter, so she nodded in agreement.
Nancy Allen and Ruby Carter walked in the front.
Julius Shaw followed behind.
Ruby Carter felt like having a tiger trailing behind her—how could the lady be so brave, not scared at all.
