“Lloyd Zalman, who allowed you to come in here?” Anna denounced icily. She despised this shitty fat
man because he had been coveting her for a long time now.
Whenever he had time, Lloyd would come into her office and shamelessly tried to take her to a dinner
date. He was also underhanded, always trying to bring his friends and family members into Civil Gallery
through his connection. For example, Allison Cooper was one of the people he had brought in.
“Anna Carter, what’s with your attitude? As the operations director of Civil Gallery, can’t I come here to
take a rest?” Lloyd Zalman settled himself comfortably into the sofa. Like a huge pile of meat, he had
layers of fats on his stomach that his shirt was threatening to burst open.
“This is not somewhere you can enter. Leave immediately,” Anna pointed to the door and said coldly.
The new owner was right here, but this idiot was so presumptuous.
Lloyd chuckled then glanced at Philip and teased shamelessly, “You’re really something, Anna. I never
thought you would be this lonely.”
Anna frowned. “Lloyd Zalman, what did you just say?!” This b*stard knows no shame!
“I don’t want to waste time on chitchat. Allison is under me. You can’t fire her,” Lloyd said blatantly.
Allison standing nearby swept a mocking glance at Anna and Philip, feeling contempt for them. Anna,
you’re such a wh*re, even bringing this wild man into the lounge area. What a b*tch!
“Haha,” Anna chuckled. “Lloyd Zalman, don’t forget that I’m the manager here. I have that right!”
“Carter! Don’t get too cocky. Brother Lloyd’s not afraid of you!” Allison crossed her arms with a
condescending look on her face. “You’re already going against the rules by bringing this migrant worker
in here of your own accord. If this gets out, I don’t think you can keep your manager position.” Allison
then sat down beside Lloyd and leaned into each other’s arms, ignoring the other occupants in the
room.
“Anna Carter, think of it properly. It’s not worth offending me for a migrant worker.” Lloyd smiled
menacingly as his heated gaze locked onto Anna, wanting to devour this woman alive. He had desired
this woman for the longest time, but she was an ice queen, constantly ignoring him. What a b*tch! She
usually acted so cold and honorable but was really a wh*re underneath. If Allison never came to him
today, he would have never known that Anna brought a migrant worker into the lounge. At this thought,
Lloyd hated Philip even more!
“What do you want then?” asked Anna with a straight face. She had been observing Philip’s expression
and realized that the man was indifferent. She knew that Philip did not want to get involved in this.
Lloyd licked his lips, staring at Anna with greedy eyes. “It’s simple, have dinner with me tonight.”
“What did you say?!” Allison burst out immediately, glaring at Lloyd darkly.
Lloyd quickly explained, “I’m just joking, baby. What do you suggest?”
Allison arrogantly pointed at Philip and said with a cold snort, “I want him to kneel and apologize to
me!” Allison knew that it was impossible to get Anna to apologize to her, so she would humiliate the
person Anna had brought in instead. She could tell that Philip was Anna’s lover.
Philip was stunned. He could not avoid getting caught in the crossfire after all.
Anna was shocked as well. She glared furiously at Allison. “Allison Cooper, you have no right to speak
here, shut up!”
“Manager Carter, I’m already doing you a favor not asking you to apologize. He’s just a bum, why do
you have to shield him? Or is he really your boy toy? Although his looks are only average,” Allison
mocked.
“Shut up! Do you have any idea who he is?” Anna raged.
“Could he by our new boss?” Allison snorted. What did Anna mean by that? What special identity could
this guy have?
Suddenly, Philip smiled faintly and asked, “Are you sure you want me to kneel and apologize?”
“That’s right! Kneel, and apologize right now!” Allison looked proud. Her whole body was emitting an air
of arrogance.
“Not just kneel, you have to crawl over and prostrate,” Lloyd added in contempt. He was too lazy to
deal with people himself, so he often used his authority to pressure others instead. And it worked every
time.
“Your name is Lloyd Zalman, the operations director here?” In contrast to Lloyd, Philip did not seem
angered. He had instead asked with a smile.
“That’s right. I’m the operations director here. Are you feeling afraid now? Apologize to my girlfriend this
instant!” Lloyd crossed his legs and looked smug.
Yet, Philip suddenly turned to Anna with a frosty expression. “Fire both of them and check if he was
involved in any corruption or had abused his power. I hope to see this taken care of immediately.”
Anna respectfully nodded. “Understood, Mr. Clarke.”
Upon hearing this, Lloyd cackled. He asked in contempt, “What did you just say, brat? Do you want me
fired, and investigate me? Are you a fool? Do you know where this is? Do you know who I am?” He
dished out a chain of questions. Lloyd held his face in his hands as he continued to laugh like he had
just heard the joke of the century.
Allison, too, snickered. “Shit! What an idiot! Did he hit his head on the door?”
Lloyd and Allison had never seen such a fool. Did this man think he was the owner of this place?
Hilarious!
However, in an instant, Anna flashed a cold smile and called the security department. “Send some
people over and inform the financial investigation division to hand over all the evidence of Lloyd
Zalman’s corruption cases and abuse of power to the police.”
In regards to Lloyd Zalman, Anna had already taken action a long time ago. She had collected a lot of
evidence. It was just that they had never interfered with each other at work, so Anna had let him be.
However, she would not do that today because he had offended the new boss. And that was a death
penalty! An ugly death at that!
Immediately after she spoke, Lloyd’s laughter stopped. His face went dark and asked, “Anna Carter,
what do you mean by this? Are you really trying to provoke me?”
Anna kept quiet.
A few security personnel rushed into the room in less than two minutes and seized both Lloyd Zalman
and Allison Cooper.
“Don’t you know who I am? Unhand me!” Lloyd roared as he struggled.
However, the security guards ignored him. They were all under Anna and would only listen to her.
By now, Allison was still ignorant of her own mistakes. She yelled out loud, “Brother Lloyd, they’re all
crazy! Fire all of them!”
At that moment, Philip was sitting calmly on the sofa while Anna brought over a piece of document that
she had just printed. “Boss, this is their termination notice.”
Philip nodded and calmly replied, “Put it up at the door.”
Lloyd and Allison were dumbstruck. Boss? Did Anna just call him ‘boss’? The two people finally started
to break out in cold sweat.
Thud! Without an ounce of hesitation, Lloyd fell to his knees and crawled over to Philip. He hugged his
leg and cried, “Boss, Boss! I’m sorry, I was wrong! I was too blind to recognize you early. I’m at fault!”
Lloyd started slapping his face.
Allison’s knees felt weak. Her whole body shivered, and she fell to the ground, paralyzed with fear as
she sat. He’s… the boss? Impossible!
Just then, the people from the finance division led the police into the room and handcuffed Lloyd
without a single word.
“Boss! Please forgive me! I won’t do it again!” The last of Lloyd’s yell of struggle resonated in the room
as he was dragged away.
Now, only Allison was left, still paralyzed on the floor.
Philip shot her a cold glance then got up to leave. Anna followed closely behind him, wanting to see
him out.
Thud! Allison threw herself at Philip, hugging his leg as she begged in tears. “Boss, I know my mistakes
now. Please forgive me this time.”
Philip did not even spare her a glance, only said coldly, “Her position shall be replaced by that girl at
the entrance, Jasmine Cooper.”
“Understood, Mr. Clarke,” replied Anna, and she quickly got security to drag Allison away.
After they left the lounge, Anna accompanied Philip, chattering happily as they made their way to the
lobby.
Then, an unexpected encounter happened.
“Philip, why are you here?”
This voice sounded familiar. Philip turned to look at the side door to notice Aiden staring at him in
confusion. The man’s eyes were also sparkling with hate.
