Chapter 15 – Confused.
"I'm not afraid! So I'm waiting for you! Don't you know where to look for me?". After saying that while smiling wryly, Sophia immediately left the crowd and Olivia's anger.
Olivia raged because Sophia even challenged her. From that day on, everyone was talking about the feud between Sophia and Olivia.
The next morning.
After finishing teaching, Sophia was called to the director's room.
Inside the room was Director Emma already and next to her was a man in her fifties.
"Director Emma … I think I've told you everything. So, I'll wait for the results in my office, then I'll say goodbye!". The middle-aged man immediately stood up and walked towards the entrance proudly.
While walking the man glanced at Sophia who had just entered sarcastically. However, Sophia ignored him then immediately sat down on the sofa opposite Director Emma.
"What did the director call me here for?". asked Sophia in a soft and polite voice.
"We have had a meeting with the shareholders and the foundation people. We are forced to fire you!". Director Emma replied with a regretful expression because Sophia was one of the best lecturers there.
Sophia was silent because she had expected this beforehand. She knew that Olivia wasn't just threatening and she must have used her father's powers to get rid of her.
"I understand, then I say goodbye and thank you for your kindness!". Sophia forced a smile while sticking her hand out towards Director Emma.
Just then, suddenly the phone rang. Instantly Director Emma immediately picked her up and ignored Sophia.
A few seconds later, Director Emma hung up the phone while smiling at Sophia.
"Why is the director smiling at me?". asked Sophia in confusion.
Without answering Sophia's question, Director Emma took the letter of dismissal from Sophia's hand.
"You don't get fired!". Director Emma said as she tore up the letter.
Sophia was surprised.
"Why did Director Emma suddenly change her mind so quickly?". Sophia thought in confusion.
"Please go back to teaching, congratulations!". Director Emma said with a smile.
Sophia shook Director Emma's hand with a still confused expression.
"Thank you Director!". After that, Sophia immediately left Director Emma's room.
Not long after that, Sophia walked down the corridor with thoughts that kept on remembering Director Emma's rapid change.
Just as she was about to turn right, she was stopped by Olivia and her two friends.
"How about it, Sophia? Didn't I warn you not to get into trouble with me! So, you bear the consequences now". Olivia said while smacking her hips haughtily.
Sophia took a breath then smiled at Olivia.
"Hahaha… You already fired but you can still smile? You are thick-faced. I should have gotten rid of you long ago because you are the most annoying lecturer on this campus. But, if you want to beg me, then I will ask my Dad to revoke his decision again". Olivia said.
Sophia felt sorry for Olivia who was so proud of her parents' power.
Olivia was silent for a moment because Sophia still didn't say anything.
A moment later.
"Are you done talking?". Ask Sophia.
"You….".
Olivia didn't have time to finish her words because Sophia just left without waiting for Olivia's answer. Suddenly Olivia hated her even more.
After that, Olivia took her two friends away from that place.
Lecturer room.
Meanwhile, in the Lecturer's room, Vio looks very happy, she treats everyone in the room by buying coffee and snacks.
"It seems that Vio is so happy that she treats us all of a sudden".
"Yes, it seems that today there will be happiness and sadness. But, why doesn't Vio delay her happiness when we will lose one of our comrades. Isn't that right?". Chloe said while smirking at Vio because she didn't like Vio's attention-seeking attitude.
The news of Sophia's dismissal has become hot news among the lecturers because her father's assistant Olivia deliberately leaked the information to them without Sophia knowing before meeting Director Emma.
Vio smiled sweetly as she said. "It's not that I'm not sad to lose one of our partners. But, I just can't help myself because I'm getting engaged soon".
They were all shocked when they heard Vio was getting engaged.
"I promise to cheer up Sophia later!". Vio continued with a sad expression as if she was the one who was the most injured hearing the news about Sophia.
"Hypocrite" … Chloe thought while grinning disdainfully at Vio.
The other lecturers also felt strange about Vio and George's relationship so they also thought the same as Chloe.
Right at that moment, Sophia entered the lecturer's room and was greeted with sad looks by all her colleagues.
"What is wrong?". Asked Sophia in surprise as she walked slowly towards her table.
Vio suddenly hugged Sophia while saying. "Shopia… My best friend! I'm sorry for your dismissal! But, believe me, we are here to always wish you the best. Hope you can get a new job quickly!".
Sophia was disgusted by the girl who hugged her, she immediately let go of the hug slowly.
Even though Sophia showed her dislike, Vio didn't care because the most important thing for her was to get rid of Sophia.
