Chapter 1643:
Clearly, Wendy hadn't. If anything, she'd doubled down.
That being the case, Corrine saw no point in holding back.
She took a sip of her coffee and said evenly,
“I'm more than capable of dealing with her myself.”
“There's no need for someone of your standing to waste ton someone like her,” Jules replied.
Corrine lifted an eyebrow, amused by his persistence. If he was volunteering to play the villain, she had no
reason to stop him.
“Fine by me. Just make sure it's done cleanly. | don’t want to see her face again.”
“You have my word,” said Jules.
Right after the call ended, Taylor stormed into Corrine’s office, his face dark with anger. It was clear the nasty

“They're saying we're sleeping together. Maybe the easiest way to shut them up is to make the rumor true...”
Before Taylor could continue, Corrine’s sharp glare interrupted him.
“Sorry, | was just kidding,” Taylor quickly backpedaled, catching the chill in her stare. He switched to a more

Taylor jumped into action, assisting like a dutiful aide, gathering her things.

Ford Group.
Before she left, an urgent announcement from the company’s HR department circulated.
Wendy, along with several employees, had been caught spreading harmful rumors about Corrine. The
misconduct had prompted HR to terminate their employment immediately and place a permanent mark on their
professional records.
The notice was prominently displayed on the company’s website, causing a stir.
Most employees knew that senior staff weren't fired unless they made costly mistakes. Now, mere rumors had
triggered drastic action. Corrine’s nswiftly becone employees dared not mention casually.
In her office, Wendy read the announcement, fury boiling over. She marched toward the CEO's office with
resolve.
Jules’ assistant, Bennie Blake, foreseeing her arrival, stood as she approached.
“Miss Norris, Mr. Ford is not available right now. If you need to discuss something, you can speak with me.”

Either explanation spelled trouble.
Bennie offered a faint smile.
“Miss Norris, you're well aware of your actions. Why stir up in front of the CEO and embarrass yourself?”
