Chapter 75 - Nothing Is Good

"Miss Nina Anderson. what is it? How can you be so careless? Do you know, I have selected you for this post at my own risk in spite of your bad reputation. I thought you would do everything properly this time. But I was wrong. You are really hopeless."The manager yelled at her when she reached his office with his daughter.

"Wh....what is this?"Nina Anderson asked somehow, although she already guessed that nothing good is going to happen here.

"Oh! Now even you dare to ask! How courageous! Here take this and write down an apology note before leaving the office. How can you even dare to act carelessly in front of the CEO.A...and you even reached her school half an hour later than the time. Did not you leave in time? How can you even reach there late?Are you out of mind? "The manager yelled again.

"I....I am sorry."She somehow uttered.

"What sorry.I am more sorry than you. My wife is going to make my life hell today. A.....and t.....the CEO even asked me to write an explanation letter. I...it is the first time that I am writing an ...!I.....I don't know why am I explaining these to a brainless woman!Leave!And if you want to keep your job, you must submit it before leaving today."

"Ok, sir.I....I will write an apology letter. And I will be more careful in the future."Nina Anderson said in a low voice and left.

She reached her office absent- mindedly. She did not notice Miss Tiran was waiting for her there.

"Nina, come with me."Miss Tirana said and held her hand.

"Oh, Tirana. Why are you here? Are not you working today?"Nina Anderson asked in a low voice.

"Come with me."Miss Tirana said pulled Nina Anderson towards the door.

"No, Tirana, I have to write this before leaving."Nina Anderson said and tried to get herself free from her friend. She did not want to get her friend to get involved in the mess she had created.

"Ok. You can write it before you leave. Now you have to talk to me first. Let's go ." Miss Tirana said in a serious tone.

Nina Anderson stared at her friend and nodded. Anyone can tell that Miss Tirana is very angry right now. She quietly followed her. They reached the front side of the company.

"Sit here."Miss Tirana sat down on a bench and said. Nina Anderson sat down near her.

"Tell me what happened?"Miss Tirana said in the same serious tone.

"What? Nothing happened. I was doing my works when you brought me out."

"Work? What type of  work  are you doing here?"

"Th....the manager has assigned me many works. works.I prepared some reports and I also assist him in different meetings."

"And what you did to the CEO? Where did you meet her?"

"I....I no.....I.....I did not. I did not do anything.H....how can I do something to a person as important as her? She is not my friend now. She is the CEO of this company. She is my boss. I am a lowly worker of her company."Nina Anderson said with a smile. Miss Tirana stared at her friend thoughtfully as she can see that her smile could not reach her eyes.

"Nina Anderson, you are the first- class graduate in business management. And you are running errands of the employees who were once had in the low position than you? How can you even do that? "

"Miss Tirana, of course, I worked here as the Deputy manager once, but now I am a lowly assistant. It is my duty to assist them. It does not matter what am I doing as I am going to get a salary.I need money now to survive. And, for me work is work. There is no big or small for that. And you know that my reputation as the deputy manager is not good as I  disappeared from my duty without properly informing the authority.

You have seen that no company wanted to hire me due to my bad reputation. I am lucky enough to get this job after all. And it was you who helped me to get this job. Otherwise, I would have been still jobless. Don't worry my friend, I am quite enjoying my work here."Nina Anderson replied with a smile.

"Hey, don't tell a lie, when you can not. Your eyes are telling me everything. I know you are not happy here."

"Tirana, it is only my second day here. It will take time to get used to the new environment. Don't worry, I am not that weak after all."

"I knew it. You would never tell me anything. "Miss Tirana said with her pouted lips.

"Hey, Tirana, I am really fine. I am not hiding anything. Now you go to your work. If someone would see you with me, you would be in a problem.I will talk to you once I reach home. Ok?"

"So, you are really not going to tell me?"

"What is it? There is nothing more."

"Then what is it? Is not the CEO your best friend? How can you be in the tight spot for her?"Miss Tirana said and showed Nina Anderson her mobile. Nina Anderson accepted the mobile and shocked to see the content.

"Wh....what..."She could not say anything. It was an announcement to all the employees of the company.

'It is to inform each and every employee of the High Clouds Enterprise that, two days salary has been deducted from Miss Nina Anderson, the assistant of the manger of accounting Department due to her negligence to the duty. Here take this as a warning as the authority is not going to tolerate any negligence to the duty.'

"It is the group created last month when the new CEO  joined the High Clouds Enterprise for the employees of High Clouds. As you joined just now, your number still has not been added to it. The CEO uses it to announce some important announcements. You can say that this group is generally used for this type of announcement, to warn others.

Every employee wishes not to get their name mentioned in this group. How can you get a spot here? It is doom for an employee. N.....now, you will not be treated nicely by anyone in the company. "Miss Tirana said in a worried tone.

Nina Anderson astonished to hear her friend's words. She never thought that her best friend would create such a mess over a little thing.

"I.....I think it is a misunderstanding. It can not be done by her."Nina Anderson mumbled thoughtfully.

"Misunderstanding? Do you think the CEO will post herself such a thing merely for a misunderstanding? I can't believe it."

"I have not done such a mistake that she is going to punish me like that. She is not like that."Nina Anderson still could not believe what is happening here.

"Will you explain exactly what happened here? Don't leave a single thing. I want to know everything starting from your joining to the duty."

Nina Anderson nodded and explained everything from first to last.

"See, I did not do anything wrong. I don't know why they are acting like that."Nina Anderson said in a confused tone.

Miss Tirana lost in deep thought to hear everything.

"Nina,I think you should leave the company. It does not suit you."Miss Tirana said thoughtfully.

"What do you mean by it doesn't suit me. Have you forgotten that I worked here as a Deputy Manager for six months already?"

"I do.I do remember that you have worked here before. You were even did everything so efficiently. But can not you realize that now things are totally different from before? Do you know that everything has changed in the Highclouds Enterprise after Miss Lucy Lin has joined the company? Nina,I think you should resign. I should not suggest you join the company which is run by your best friend"

"What do you mean by resigning? Why would I resign? I can not. Lucy is not like that."

"Nina, I think Miss Lucy Lin is not the same Lucy Lin you used to know. She has changed. She going to let you work here peacefully. Have you thought, how can a friend humiliate her own friend in front of the whole employees here? Why is she doing this to you? Is not it is a signal to you to be prepared for the worst?"

"I am also confused. She was never like this. She was always a good friend to me. She was always kind- hearted. I think she is too stressed out about the workload."

"Nina, I don't think that is correct. I think the position and power have made her like this."Miss Tirana said in a serious tone. Nina Anderson sighed to hear her friend.
