Chapter 142
Erin regretted not meeting Henry earlier in her life.0
But that was alright.
At least she had the opportunity now. She would be Mrs. Grant soon!
'I mean~ it's obvious that Henry will be mine in the end,' Erin thought. 'Just look at him. He believes me instantly without questioning even though I lied about everything, hihi~.'
'I bet he's beating Kate inside, hopefully he will slap and kick her just like what Kate did to me last night. That would be the best!' Erin cheered. 'Hmm, maybe a punch on her gut would be good too. It'd be a good reminder that she's just a barren bitch.'
Mai had been standing in the corridor, watching Erin, who giggled like a crazy witch while eavesdropping on what was happening inside the CEO's office.
Mai already knew that Mr. Grant was probably making noises to convince Erin that he was actually hurting Mrs. Woods.
It was obvious, just from his eyes, that Mr. Grant would NEVER hurt Mrs. Woods. If only Erin was a little bit sensible, she would realize that Henry only had his eyes on Kate the whole time.
"You look like an idiot, you know that, right?" Mai commented. "I mean, you already have that 'skank out of motel' look, no need to be greedy and claim that 'Mother Gothel on meth' look as well."
Erin stopped giggling and glared at Mai, who dared to mock her, "You should shut your mouth, chink. You know that I can fire you easily, right?"
Erin was in the mood to taunt Mai. This petite woman never intended to bend under Erin's rule, even though she was just a secretary that could be replaced easily.
"Let me tell you something, chink. I lied about everything. Kate did assault me last night, but that's because I tormented her," Erin admitted. "I am the one who calls our mother often, making up lies just to give her small heart attacks, so Kate will do everything I say. It's a neat little trick, don't you think?"
Mai gritted her teeth. She already knew that Erin was slandering Mrs. Woods. She was a cruel bitch who had no heart for her sickly mother.
Mrs. Woods already told her she should not respond to Erin's taunt because Mai might have accidentally spilled their mission to Erin.
But she couldn't help but get really angry at Erin.
"Do you think I don't know?" Mai snarked. "Do you really think that a woman like Mrs. Woods would be so vile to do that? I know you're the one who can do that kind of horrible thing, Erina Ross."
"Hehe, of course, you know, but what are you going to do?" Erin giggled. "Which one do you think will Henry trust—a random chink like you, or an absolutely stunning beauty like me? You know the answer is obvious, right?"
Mai was so angry at this bitch that she couldn't hold it anymore. She opened her mouth, but when she was about to say something, the door suddenly slammed open, and Erin was hit on her forehead yet again.
"AUH!" Erin fell on her back. She grimaced in pain for a second. She was about to yell to whoever dared slam the door on her already swollen forehead.
But her anger dissipated when she saw Kate, who was in tears.
Erin's jaw dropped when she saw the tears.
Kate cried.
That cold-hearted bitch actually cried!
Mr. Grant was so amazing. She made her sister cry!
Kate bit her lower lip while staring at Erin hatefully for a few seconds before she stormed into the Chief Editor's office.
Mai was caught off guard by Mrs. Woods' tears. She ignored Erin and rushed to follow Mrs. Woods into the office.
Erin was still dazed thinking about her crying sister.
It was so amazing.
This feeling was so amazing! It made her want to do more!
Henry walked out of the office soon after.
He was sweating all over. His chest heaved as he tried to control his anger.
He clenched his fists, and the veins in his strong arms made him scary and sexy at the same time.
He stared at Erin, who was still sitting on the floor, trying to recover from the second door slam on the forehead.
"Where is Mrs. Woods?" Henry asked.
"A—Ah, she's in her office. She has been crying, Mr. Grant…" Erin replied softly. She kept staring at Henry without blinking. She almost drooled, thinking about what this man did to her sister.
"I see," Henry nodded. "Are you satisfied with what I did?" He asked.
"Y—Yes!" Erin replied enthusiastically. "Thank you so much, Mr. Grant! I'm satisfied!"
"You should know that Mrs. Woods will be on temporary lay off for a week to see if the company will be able to run without her presence," Henry said. "In short, I'm about to fire her, but I have to ensure the company won't be in a bad condition after she leaves. I hope this will make you happier, since you got assaulted by her."
"I am happy, Mr. Grant!" Erin said. "Thank you so much!"
"Good, I'll leave now. I still have things to do. You should also go home now, Miss Ross. I don't think you're fit to work when your face is badly bruised."
Henry then walked away from her. Erin kept staring at Henry's muscular back, and her heart was beating rapidly as if she had fallen in love with a man for the first time.
'Oh my god, he is perfect,' Erin said. 'He does everything I ask him to do. He doesn't question me, and he even fired Kate, who has been an important Chief Editor in this company, everything just for me!'
'I know that I have such an undeniable beauty that no man can ignore!' Erin claimed confidently.
She got up after a while and patted her skirt. She stared at the Chief Editor's office and grinned maliciously, "This is what happens when you try to fight me, Sis. You should know that I have beauty and brain."
