Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 101

Chapter 101 One-Sided Oppression

Scarlett quickly rose to her feet when she saw Sabrina on her way to attack Nicole. However, just as she was about to grab Sabrina, Sabrina, the deranged woman now fueled by anger, shoved Scarlett to the ground again.

No one else from the Design Department had dared to step forward as they were afraid of becoming the next target of bullying. Sabrina might no longer be a part of the company, but it didn’t mean that the other employees would continue having another peaceful day at work if words were to reach Joanna’s ears. Sabrina and Joanna were each other’s close confidant, after all.

Sabrina’s hands reached Nicole’s throat in no time. With her eyes blazing with fury, she looked like a demon as she wailed and tightened her grip around Nicole’s neck.

“You only got that position because of your underhanded methods. I bet you don’t even know who that b*stard’s father is. Your son is but a lowly retard!”

Unlike Sabrina, Nicole was fairly calm even though she was in the midst of being strangled by the woman. Despite the pressure on her neck that was gradually blocking the flow of oxygen, she still managed to give Sabrina a powerful kick that sent Sabrina falling to the ground in no time.

“Ahhhh!” She let out a pained gasp.

One could only imagine how much the kick must have hurt, considering the fact that Nicole had no inhibitions when she struck Sabrina with her high heels.

…

It was easy for one to feel suffocated by the somberness of the President’s office, and that was the exact reason why Tony refused to step into the space at first. However, he knew he had to stop the

fight from getting worse. Colton would definitely not let him off the hook if Lisa was injured in the commotion.

“President Gardner,” he alerted Colton of his presence in a low voice as he knocked.

Colton’s gaze fell on the teary-eyed Joanna, and he indifferently waved her off while telling

Joanna didn’t respond to him, but instead, she sniffled and peered at Colton with a knowing look in her eyes. As unwilling as she was, she still turned and walked away in obedience.

Tony quickly made way into the office. He didn’t even bother to check whether Joanna had left as he sputtered, “President Gardner, please hurry to the Design Department. Sabrina and Lisa are in a physical fight!”

Colton’s eyebrows immediately knitted together and his expression dimmed when he heard the unexpected news.

Joanna, who was still a few steps from leaving the office, had heard the secretary’s words by accident. She stood there frozen as her face paled. She had only been reprimanded a moment ago. With the impression Colton had on her and Sabrina, Sabrina might as well be considered dead, if he ever had his hands on that nuisance of a woman.

Joanna whipped her body around and quickly suggested, “This is the Design Department’s responsibility. Why don’t you let me handle it my department’s way, President Gardner?”

Colton had risen from his seat then. His tall build was somehow more intimidating than the atmosphere in the office was. He swiftly ignored Joanna as he looked past her and glanced at Tony. “Go downstairs and check it out,” he instructed.

Joanna stiffened upon receiving the cold treatment, but she could only hold it in while she looked at the man walking past her. Clenching her own hand, she quietly followed after them.

However, contrary to Colton’s worst assumptions, Nicole was standing there in one piece.

Sabrina, on the other hand, looked as pathetic as she was crazy while gasping for air on the ground. Her cheeks were completely swollen from the powerful slaps from Nicole.

This looks like a one-sided fight, Tony mused while rubbing his nose.

However, the pure anger on her face had immediately dissipated when her eyes landed on Colton and Joanna.

She suppressed the pain and hopped in front of them with tears in her eyes.

“Director Schmidt,” Sabrina cried to Joanna. “You have to help me receive the justice I deserve. Nicole started slapping and kicking me out of nowhere!”

Looking at the disgruntled-looking Sabrina, Joanna could only bite her teeth and remain quiet. She didn’t dare say a word when the words Colton had said to her were still fresh in her mind.

A glint of disappointment swiftly appeared in Sabrina’s eyes, but just as she was about to continue pleading her case, a man’s cold voice rang out from above her head.

“Where are the guards? This person here doesn’t have an employee badge on her. Who was it that allowed someone who is not an employee of the company in? Is someone looking to get fired because they are sick of their peaceful working days?”

Colton spoke in a cold, low tone, yet it was a voice that had everyone who heard it trembling.
