The next day, Lisa entered the office building with flowers blooming in her heart.
Ever since the woman opened her eyes, she couldn't stop smiling widely. She even made Vira breakfast.
The meeting with the Bright Light company ended successfully. Even though she sprained her leg and almost kissed Hendery, at least her efforts weren't wasted.
"Hey, this is a workplace, so don't gossip and talk nonsense. If you want to gossip, you'd better go home now. Do you think this office is a market!?"
"You, you, and you…. I will cut your salary this month!"
"Forgive us Mrs. Indri! We don't mean to gossip during business hours.."
Before Lisa could enter the elevator that would take her to her division floor, she heard a familiar scream. When she turned her head, Lisa saw Indri scolding some poor female employees.
Indri, who was wearing fiery red high heels, seemed to fume with rage. It was as if she was catching her employee stealing office secrets.
Lisa knew that they were just chatting normally. Moreover, it is still less than 8 o'clock, so that means work hours have not yet started.
Suddenly, Lisa remembered what happened yesterday. The incident where Oscar flat out rejected Indri, which caused the woman to cry. The incident must've affected her mood today.
The three female employees were constantly scolded by Indri. Even Lisa was sure the hot coffee cups they were holding had now turned cold.
The three of them could only look down and listen to Indri's tirade, not daring to do anything. Since Indri was a Senior Unit Manager, which meant that her position was quite high, they wouldn't have the slightest courage to go against the woman's words.
They could die on the spot if they dared to answer Indri! Apart from standing dead, they would also definitely lose their jobs.
That's why by keeping quiet and answering as needed, Lisa was sure the female employees would survive.
Having scolded them for more than 10 minutes, Indri finally took a deep breath. She walked over to the three of them while crossing her arms in front of her chest. Her beautiful face was flushed with emotion.
"You all, hurry back to your desks and copy the employee manual 100 times. I want your work to be handwritten! And don't forget to submit it to me before Sunday!"
"Do you understand?!" Indri continued angrily.
"Yes ma'am.." The three of them replied in unison.
One of them is a new person. Lisa just saw that woman about 5 days ago. And now being scolded so badly in public made the woman cry.
In public and in front of Indri, the woman cried.
"If I hear one of you complain and say that I am a cruel person, I will not hesitate to fire you the second I know it. Understand!?"
The three female employees nodded their heads quickly, "Understood Mrs. Indri."
After hearing their answer, Indri turned around and walked away. The woman's and Lisa's eyes met for a few seconds. Then without much to say, Indri walked past her quickly.
Before her trouble with Oscar yesterday, Indri would have greeted her like usual. What's more, she was sure to show off what Oscar bought her that morning or yesterday.
Unlike now. Indri quickly left Lisa's presence rather than getting more and more angry by her current situation.
At first, Lisa never thought that Oscar would approach Indri just to help her in the office.
Because to be honest, Indri is a beautiful woman who has a good career. Lisa is sure that no man will refuse Indri's confession. After all, it was a mere confession, and Lisa is also sure that Indri must have many secret fans.
And yesterday, Lisa heard herself that Oscar didn't have any feelings for Indri. They are just co-workers helping each other.
Lisa alone was confused by Oscar's answer. She could not imagine what Indri felt at that time.
After she felt satisfied for taking out her anger on the three poor women, the atmosphere in the office became tense. People began to whisper to their right and left that Indri had just been angry.
But instead of being told to copy the employee manual, they chose to remain silent.
Sometimes, when Lisa came down to get some fresh air or went out for lunch, she always took the time to see the three poor women. They look so panicked.
On their table were several piles of blank paper and their hands never stopped moving, writing on them.
It didn't feel like the day was going so fast. When the clock showed 5 pm, Lisa had just come out of her room. With a stiff neck and hot eyes, the woman pressed the button for the elevator.
"Isn't it nice if I pick up William from daycare..." Lisa muttered to herself.
Starting two weeks ago, after Lisa took Maria's place, William was always entrusted to child care after school. Because usually, when the man can't pick up William, Lisa always makes time to pick up the boy.
But now that they are both busy, Oscar and Lisa decide to send William to daycare.
At the same time, as the elevator door opened, Lisa saw a very familiar man.
Oscar was just adjusting his coat and fell silent when he saw Lisa. Not long after, the corner of the man's lips lifted upwards.
Even though Lisa always felt her heart beat fast and feeling joyful every time she saw Oscar, the look on her face was always flat and cold. Just like today.
"Why are you here?" Lisa asked as she walked out of the elevator. She tightly gripped her tote bag and continued, "Do you want to meet Mrs. Indri?"
Hearing that made Oscar frown. Over time, he felt tired of having to explain to Lisa that he had no relationship with Indri.
"Oh my, why do you always ask about Indri? What if I came here to waste time? What if I came here to take you home with me. Can't I?"
Lisa rolled her eyes, "Ugh, don't talk so much nonsense!"
Oscar had purposely come home early today, canceled an important meeting, so he could take Lisa home and maybe have lunch with her and William. But now, hearing Lisa's tone, Oscar felt annoyed.
"Lisa!" Oscar snapped suddenly. "Could you please just shut up and listen to what I have to say!?"
