In the conference room.

While the officials were almost present, the supervisor and Kimberly arrived late.

Everyone couldn't help looking at Kimberly as she entered with her supervisor. After what had happened for the past few days, all the high-level officials knew who she was.

They all knew a little about the series of things that had happened between Kimberly and Maddox ever since she entered the company.

In addition, they had seen Kimberly many times in the conference room. Although the president tortured her at the beginning, everyone wasn't blind. They all knew the president's intention. The last tQuill had cfor a meeting, they all inadvertently noticed Maddox's attitude towards Kimberly.

However... though he might have actually cared for her, maybe Maddox truly disliked her now.

Otherwise, how could she be demoted to such a low position? The supervisor, Lincoln Maxwell, was in his forties. He was thin and had a long face and pointed eyes. He looked gentle in his glasses, but his expression didn't look very good.

"Lincoln, you're late! Don't you know that the president hates it when we are late?" Someone reminded him. Lincoln looked at the person and he immediately said, "I didn't do it on purpose. It's just that the documents for this meeting have not been sorted out yet." Upon hearing this, the crowd burst into an uproar.

"What's going on? Didn't I inform you yesterday to sort it out? Why haven't you finished it yet?" "That's right! We have also sent our information to you yesterday. What's wrong with you?" Lincoln held back his anger and then looked at Maddox, who had an indifferent look on his face and was exuding an imposing aura. He then dragged Kimberly from behind him.

Lincoln held her in front of the crowd and declared, "Everyone, she was the one who screwed the documents up." "Huh? What does it have to do with her?" Everyone looked at Kimberly, puzzled.

There was no expression on Maddox's face, but his cold eyes swept over Kimberly's slender arm where Lincoln had pulled her at.

Her skin was fair and she was wearing a sleeveless dress. After being yanked, Lincoln's grip left a red mark on her arm.

Maddox didn't like it. Why didn't she cover herself up when she knew her skin get bruised easily? Lincoln explained, "She has just cto our department, and I wanted to test her capability. She took the initiative to help with the meeting today. I agreed to let her do it, seeing that she was so confident. I didn't expect that she couldn't finish the work. Young Master Yardley, I'm sorry for failing to guide her." Lincoln was a hypocrite. He blamed her and pretended that he was sorry for not teaching her well.

No one responded to Lincoln for a long time. They didn't know how to react as they couldn't figure out what Maddox was thinking either.

Kimberly remained calm. She was holding the bag in her hand, and there was no expression on her beautiful face.

She was not worried about the current situation at all.

"You're indeed poor at guiding your subordinate." All of a sudden, everyone heard a gentle yet stern voice. A man in a white shirt stood up, and his calm eyes fell on Lincoln's face.

Lincoln suddenly felt immense pressure, and he bowed unconsciously. "V- Vice President Yardley," Lincoln greeted.

Benedict spoke steadily, "You said that she's a newcomer. The project that we are discussing is very important, and you knew we need the documents. Even if you want to test her out, you need to have a backup plan. But you blindly entrusted all this to a newcomer. Last but not least, you don't take responsibility when it goes wrong. Do you think you're even qualified for this job?" Lincoln's face instantly turned pale. He looked at Benedict with fear. But at the stime, he noticed that Maddox wasn't interested in what had happened.

Lincoln regained sconfidence and continued, "What Vice President Yardley said is true. I didn't think it through, but this time..." Benedict cut him off, "What? You are not going to take the responsibility?" Lincoln lowered his head and said quickly, "No, I dare not!" "Where is the information?" Maddox suddenly asked. Everyone else who was watching the scene was shocked to hear him. They quickly straightened their backs and sat up straight. Maddox's eyes fell straight on Kimberly's fair face and said, "It's okay if you don't make progress on the first day, but you have caused such big trouble. How are you going to make up for it?" Kimberly, who had been standing still and silent, finally looked at Maddox upon hearing his question.

Kimberly could feel his cold stare, it was much more piercing than the one he gave her during the past few days. Meeting his eyes, she shivered just looking at him.

Kimberly knew that her words had hurt him. She did not beg him to forgive her, but she still wanted a chance to explain herself.

Their eyes met for a long tbefore Kimberly answered, "That's not true." Maddox remained expressionless as he stared at her silently.

Kimberly said again, "I didn't cause any trouble either." Everyone didn't know what she meant. Just then, Kimberly put her bag on the table and showed them the USB she was holding. She said, "I've sorted out all the documents, but that computer is too old. It suddenly switched off by itself." "Fortunately, I have the habit of saving my work on my USB."

As she spoke, Kimberly stepped forward with the USB in hand and connected it to the laptop. She then projected the slides that she had prepared. Looking back at the crowd, she continued, "This is what I have prepared. If you can sparestime, I will print them out now for everyone." Everyone was speechless. They didn't know what was happening. Didn't Lincoln say the documents weren't sorted out?

Lincoln saw the sorted materials and his face instantly fell. He walked towards Kimberly and said "Why! didn't you fellthat you have a backup? You've embarrassed me." Kimberly replied indifferently, "Lincoln, you didn't ask me.

Lincoln didn't know what to say.

"I didn't know why you broughthere. You didn't givean opportunity to explain it to you," Kimberly added while blinking innocently.

Lincoln was so furious.

The high-level officials looked on, speechless. Sam, who stood behind Maddox, couldn't help feeling happy for Kimberly and applauded for her in his heart. Good job! This counterattack was splendid! Show Lincoln who really has the power! Kimberly knew that everyone, including Maddox, wanted to see her make a fool out of herself.

But she refused to let it happen.

Kimberly was not a pushover, and even if she would have to face even more conflict in the future, she would fight back! Ashburn
