The Ex-Wife They Begged To Keep - Chapter 78: Chapter 78

Charles subconsciously took half a step back, too afraid to meet Serena's gaze. Just then, Max interrupted Serena impatiently.
"Enough. Serena, what you did is so terrible. How dare you blame others?" Max pointed at the documents on the table, and his saliva almost sprayed into Serena's face.
Serena's creative plan was indeed ingeniously conceived, far better than any plan proposed by other teams in the company so far.
He had to admit that if it weren't for this incident, this plan might well have become the company's best product of the year.
However, this plan only made him feel extremely dazzling. No matter how good it was, under the shadow of the leak, it became worthless. He now completely believed Stacey's so-called evidence and didn't want to hear another word from Serena at all.
An employee who can't even keep company secrets is useless no matter how well she does.
Max said, "Is this the kind of garbage you usually use to fool me? This design has no originality, and the market analysis is completely off the mark. Have you ever put your brain to work?"
"You're fired. The company won't allow an employee with such bad conduct to stay any longer," he added.
He didn't give Serena any chance to explain and then turned to Stacey. "Stacey, you've made a contribution this time. The company will remember your efforts."
"Thank you. This is all I should do." Stacey covered her mouth and smiled, then looked at Serena proudly and said, "Ms. Gray, don't just stand there. Hurry up and leave. If it makes a big fuss, things will only turn more ugly."
Serena looked at the documents on the table and finally said nothing. She suddenly felt extremely tired. The feeling of not being trusted and having her dignity trampled on at will made her completely disappointed in this company.
Leaving was the best choice. She glanced at the triumphant Stacey, turned around, and opened the door to go out.
"Ridiculous," Stacey muttered softly behind her and then mocked her. "If she doesn't have the ability, she shouldn't stay in the company. People who play small tricks will eventually shoot themselves in the foot."
Her voice was loud enough to be heard by almost everyone in the corridor. But Serena didn't seem to hear it and walked step by step towards her workstation. She opened her drawer and began to pack her things quietly.
Colleagues around whispered to each other.
"Did she really do it? I didn't expect that she usually looks quite honest..."
"No one can stand the test of money."
"It's a pity, but look at Mr. Davidson's face. This matter is definitely a certainty."
Serena was sorting out the documents. She didn't want to waste time arguing with Stacey, let alone waste time and energy on such a pointless dispute.
Stacey walked up to Serena and looked down at her packing. She mocked, "Serena, you definitely didn't expect this day, did you?"
She continued, "But it's no wonder you. After all, you are incompetent and can only play these small tricks. I said that people like you will eventually suffer a big loss."
Serena stopped what she was doing. She looked at Stacey with a sneer.
She said, "Stacey, I believe you know very well who the kind of person you're talking about is. I don't do those lowly things. Let me advise you, don't end up shooting yourself in the foot."
Stacey said arrogantly, "Now you're still denying it? You're a person who's about to get out of the company and has no right to lecture me."
Serena stared at Stacey's complacent face, and her eyes gradually became cold. She suddenly thought of the way Stacey looked at Keith at the company gate that day.
Stacey treated her so despicably and made up those far-fetched accusations out of thin air. I'm afraid it's all because of Keith.
Serena looked at Stacey provocatively. "That's good. I really should think about Mr. Brannon's invitation. After all, if I can't stay here, he still has a lot of opportunities waiting for me."
She deliberately emphasized Mr. Brannon. Stacey's face instantly turned pale.
Stacey said through gritted teeth, "Don't even think about it."
Serena observed Stacey's expression and continued, "Speaking of which, the conditions offered by Mr. Brannon are indeed very tempting. His employees' welfare is much better than here."
Stacey's mouth, which had just been raised, suddenly froze. Her lips trembled slightly, but she couldn't say a word for a while.
After a moment, Stacey suddenly stepped forward and slapped the documents on Serena's table. The harsh sound was very abrupt in the quiet office area.
"Serena, if Keith knows what you've done, he definitely won't want someone as despicable as you. You don't deserve to work for him," she screamed.
Serena looked at Stacey who had completely lost her mind very calmly. After admiring Stacey's twisted face for a while, she said slowly, "Then let's see if Mr. Brannon believes me or you."
Stacey wanted to refute but found that she was at a loss of words.
Just then, Serena's phone vibrated. She picked up the phone and found that it was a call from Keith. Serena had just deliberately used Keith to stimulate Stacey, which made her feel a little guilty. After hesitating for a moment, she still answered it.
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then a low voice came. "What's wrong?" Keith could hear that Serena's mood was down on the other end of the phone.
Serena clenched her phone but found that she couldn't tell the story of being slandered and insulted just now.
He said, "I can tell you're not in a good mood."
Serena glanced at Stacey. She picked up her phone, got up from her seat, and walked towards the outside of the office.
Stacey stared closely at Serena's phone screen. Although it was only a moment, she clearly saw that it was a call from Keith.
She gritted her teeth, and even her breathing became rapid. Jealousy filled her heart. She thought, 'Why? Why does Keith only treat Serena so well?'
