Chapter 723

Backing Him Up

He looked at Gloria and chuckled, “Do you believe them?”

His deep eyes were measuring her. It was a confession of love, but he would not give her the slightest
pressure.

Such easy air would not unsettle people.

However, Gloria was immune to it. It was in her genes. Whether Jonathan gave her pressure or not,
she would not be led by him by the nose.

She brushed him off. “What has it got to do with me? That’s your freedom.”

Instead of going on with the topic, he smiled and said in a soft voice, “See you around. Call me if you
need anything.”

She watched the man leave and closed the door.

She had taken the day off.

It was fine. She could work from home.

One peaceful day passed, but it was a different situation when she went to the office the following day.

Just as she was about to enter the elevator, a woman in a business suit stopped her.

The aggressive look on her face puzzled Gloria, and she held her steps.

Without a doubt, this woman was coming after her.

She remained silent, waiting for the woman to start.



The woman’s dark hair was combed into a bun. A pair of black-framed glasses perched on her nose.
Her skin was fair and well-maintained. Not drop-dead gorgeous, she was pretty and seemed to be in
her early thirties.

The other employees, who came to work, looked over out of curiosity.

Walking shoulder to shoulder with her colleague, one female employee was puzzled by the situation.
“Why did Freda stop Gloria?”

“I heard that something happened in their department yesterday, and Freda was battered,” her
colleague told the story.

The staff member was surprised. “Eh, what happened?”

Her colleague whispered, “You don’t know? Almost everyone in the office has heard about it.”

“What is it?” The staff member was even more confused, “I was away yesterday afternoon. Did
anything major happen? The chat group is quiet.”

Her colleague snorted, “How would anyone talk about such a thing in public? It should be settled in
private.”

What on earth happened?

Her interest was piqued. The staff member pushed her glasses. “What exactly happened? Just tell me.”

Since there was still some time before the working hours, those employees were not in a hurry and
preferred to watch the fun.

Her colleague whispered, “There was an episode in the personnel department yesterday. Freda is sort
of a supervisor there, but her manager scolded her. Although the power of her manager has been



seized by the assistant manager, Gloria is backing him up.”

The staff member was baffled. “So what? Gloria is involved in it?”

Her colleague whispered again, “You bet. If she were not involved, things wouldn’t have come to this. I
heard that the manager scolded her in the presence of an interviewee for violating the rule set by
Gloria. In short, his words were harsh. The one thing Freda cares about the most is her reputation, so
they fought.”
