My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 503

Speculation and gossip piled one after another. No one knew whether Natalie had colluded with the other company to create a loophole in the contract.

Trying her hardest to ignore the whispers, Natalie went to the restroom to freshen up.

She was a little frantic, and had to calm herself down.

When she returned, Natalie was stunned.

Stacks of clutter laid on her desk, including documents, cups, and other random stuff. It seemed her spot was suddenly treated as a dumping ground.

"Whose things are these?" Natalie asked.

No one answered.

Natalie raised her voice and repeated the question indignantly.

Lanny and Doris walked over.

"A piece of junk from everyone. Seems like it has covered up your entire desk."

Natalie frowned slightly, "Why would you guys put your belongings on my desk? Don't you have a place forthem?"

Lanny snickered.

As if talking to Natalie was disdainful, Lanny lifted her chin to signal Doris.

Doris's family was not as well-off as Lanny's, and her position was not as high, so mostly, she was Lanny's minion.

Doris's expression was scornful as she said, "Natalie, things are different now. Do you really think that YS will still want you after you failed to notice such a big loophole in the contract? Do you think that Mr. Whitlock will protect you? I'm telling you, by the end of today, you'll be fired, or worse, maybe you'll be sent to the police for investigation!"

Natalie paled.

A moment later, she looked directly at Doris, replying, "I admit I've made a mistake, but it doesn't mean that you can spout your thoughtless remarks. Take your things away!"

Doris put her hands on her hips, "You're going to be fired by YS anyway, this place doesn't even belong to you anymore. In the future, this will be our dumping ground."

Next to her, Lanny cackled.

Her laughter contained pure disdain and contempt.

A hint of disgust flashed across Natalie's eyes.

As she was a new employee of YS Group, she had always tolerated and given in to her snarky colleagues. But if she was going to be fired because of her mistake anyway, she no longer had a reason to put up with everything.

They had already slapped her, so why should she continue accepting it with a smile?

The next moment, Natalie did something unexpected.

She swept all the junk on her desk into the trash can with a loud thud, making a huge ruckus as loud as possible.

Lanny and Doris's expressions changed that very second.

"Natalie, how dare you toss our things away!" The two of them shrieked shrilly almost at the same time.

"I just threw them away, what's wrong with that?"

"Compensate us then!"

"You're the ones who left it on my desk. Why should I pay for it?"

"If you throw our things away, you have to pay for it!"

"I won't pay for it." Natalie scoffed, then deliberately sat at her table acting without a care in the world.

Lanny sucked in a mouthful of cold air, hissing.

Natalie's actions were getting on her very nerves. She resisted the urge to step forward and give Natalie a tight slap.

However, she considered herself to be a virtuous lady, and it would be inappropriate for her to act in such an obnoxious manner.

After a while, Lanny gave Doris a look.

Doris immediately understood.

She went to Lanny's desk and retrieved Lanny's bag, slamming it on Natalie's table.

"Take it away." Natalie said coldly.

"I won't." Doris smirked triumphantly, taunting, "You can throw it away, but the trash can is already full. Let's see where you can dispose of it next. What are you going to do? Throw it out the window?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Natalie picked up the bag and tossed it out the window.

Peggy had been in the Legal Department for a long time. Being the clever person that she was, upon hearing Tobias's words, she knew that his and Natalie's relationship was not as simple as it seemed.

She immediately spoke up for Natalie.

Tobias's icy gaze fell on Doris.

The severeness of the situation finally dawning on her, Doris felt as if an enormous pressure was enveloping her, crushing her until she had difficulty breathing.

She was about to explain that Lanny was the one who instructed her to do so, in hopes of clearing her own name, but Tobias had already started speaking calmly, "Compensate her for the bag. As for this person, notify HR about her dismissal!"

Doris visibly blanched.

Job opportunities at the YS Group were once in a lifetime. Even for something as expensive as the Hermes bag, it was not worth losing a job over.

★★★★★

Tobias had personally gone down to inform Natalie to go to his office.

Natalie knew that it must be because of the contract.

Due to her negligence, she had caused the company to lose 100 million dollars, an incredibly large amount.

But first things first, Natalie expressed her gratitude to Tobias for helping her get out of trouble.

"Mr. Whitlock, thank you. I'm really grateful for what you did back there." Natalie's tone was full of appreciation.

She knew that she would suffer his wrath sooner or later for what happened with the contract, and she might even get fired. But no matter what, she should thank him first.

Tobias's footsteps came to a sudden halt.

He fixed his gaze on Natalie's face, "Were you almost bullied just now? Hmm?"

Natalie's eyes shifted a little.

He was right. She almost got cornered and bullied after the incident.

After all, so many people were ganging up on her. She could not do anything about it.

There seemed to be a slight frustration in Tobias's eyes. "You fool. You have someone so strong backing you up, and yet you still got bullied. If anything, you should be the one picking on others."
