Chapter 308 - Suspected Of Stealing Goods

"I swear you're the most annoying person on earth! Ah, I'm too lazy to talk to you again, I want to go home!" Lisa said, getting irritated.

Riani held her back when she was about to leave the advertising office, while landing a suspicious gaze on the cardboard Lisa brought. "Do you think you can get out of here with the stuff belonging to this office? You are no longer working here anymore! Why are you picking up this stuff? Do you want to steal, huh? Say it!"

"Are you delusional? This is my freaking stuff!" Lisa replied irritably. Her rage started to burn.

"You think I can just believe what you say? How can I be sure if the items inside the cardboard box really belong to you?" Riani fired back with a tone of suspicion mixed with arrogance.

Hearing the stupid question drained Lisa's patience drastically. Since that grim-faced woman became a finance manager, she did everything she wanted as if she was the owner of the company. No matter how far Rangga hurt her, that man had never baselessly accused her like Riani.

Lisa looked at Riani's annoying face with a squint and said, "I'm sorry, but all of these things belong to me, and you don't have the right to unload them. I'm not as stupid and low as you think that I'd steal the company's stuff. You're just a manager but you acted as if you're the most righteous person alive! What an eyesore."

Riani still insisted on blocking Lisa as she still didn't believe her words. She kept trying to pressure Lisa so that she would show the contents of the cardboard she was holding. "I'm in charge of the finance department and you're a former finance worker! I have the right to check the contents of that cardboard box before you leave this office forever!"

"Move, Riani! Leave me alone! Get out of my way!" Lisa snapped, starting to growl.

Annoyed by her stubbornness, Riani threw her palm to slap Lisa but Vira grabbed her hand. She turned to Vira with a surprised and angry face.

"You have no right to interfere, you kid!" Riani yelled at Vira.

"You're too much. Sis Lisa didn't even have the intention of hurting you, why did you want to slap her!? I can guarantee that all the items in the box belonged to her because I am the one helping her to clean up. So there is no need to suspect Sis Lisa of stealing!" Vira explained firmly without hesitation.

Riani shook off her hand roughly, making Vira almost fall over. 

The woman with the gloomy face pointed to Lisa's face again with her index finger and shouted, "How dare you defy me! I have more authority than you here! I'm telling you once again, open the box and let me check!"

Lisa gripped the box tightly. She did not want Riani to interfere with her personal belongings. "You can't! These are my personal belongings and you heard yourself from Vira that this box contains only my personal belongings. Now move! I want to go home!"

"I won't let you go home before I see what's in that box, Lisa!" Riani yelled.

As she got increasingly annoyed, Lisa sighed and racked her brains to find a way out of this trivial, exaggerated problem. "Riani, I know you envy me because you've been working longer in this advertising office but you've just become a finance manager. But it's not my fault that you didn't get promoted last time, right? The one who has the right to do it is Mr. Rangga, the boss of this advertising company. You should be grateful now that you finally become a financial manager, but that doesn't mean you can act arbitrarily like this! Your face looks even more ugly and scary if you are bitchy like this, who would want to be with you? Ewww…."

Her last sentence made Riani's self-confidence crumble and her emotions that had previously been boiling were ready to explode. No employee had ever dared to ridicule her appearance other than Lisa. Her face immediately flushed red with deep shame.

"You son of a bitch! How dare you say that my face is ugly! People say I'm pretty and cute! You think you're prettier than me huh? Do you want to die?" Riani snapped with her grunt.

Her reply tickled Lisa more, she laughed mockingly and said, "Tell me, who told you that you're beautiful? Your face is like grime, and you still dare to claim that you are prettier than me? Seriously, what's wrong with your head!" The attack made Riani's confidence crumble even more.

Riani ignored Lisa's taunts even though she couldn't accept. She held Lisa's cardboard and tried to snatch it from her grip. "You can't leave here before I see what's inside this box!"

"No! It is my right to bring my stuff home!" Lisa insisted.

"Sis Riani, let go Sis Lisa! Those are her personal belongings! Trust me!" Vira replied firmly in a loud voice.

"Shut up! Don't get involved!" Riani snapped. The woman with the gloomy face turned her gaze to Lisa again and said, "Just because you are on good terms with Mr. Rangga, do you think you can roam this office freely? You should be asking what's wrong with your head since you still think of yourself as an employee here!"

"Your bastard, watch your mouth Riani! It's not my fault that you weren't appointed as a financial manager at that time. I also didn't understand why Mr. Rangga made me into a finance manager in a relatively short time! Now step aside and let me go home and take my personal belongings away from here!"

"You sure talk too much, I just want to check the contents of your cardboard! Quit resisting!"

"I don't want to! This is my privacy! You don't have the right to unload my personal belongings! Move over or you'll suffer!"

"You still think you can go from here unchecked huh? I'm in charge of the finance department, I have to make sure nobody's stealing anything from my department!"

Not long after, a tall, thin man walked over to the three bickering women from the entrance to the office. He was seen wearing a black long sleeve shirt as usual.

The two didn't realize it while Vira accidentally looked at his face as the man approached the three of them. With a surprised face and a little embarrassed, Vira poked Lisa's shoulder then gestured to look ahead.

Lisa immediately shifted her gaze and met with a blank stare. She was stunned either, and no longer paying attention to Riani. 

"Hey, don't pull your face away when I'm talking to you! You stupid, how dare to be rude to me while I'm in charge of this office??!" Riani snapped, unaware of the presence of the man in black who was now standing behind her.

"Oh, so you are in charge of this office, huh?" The tall, thin man replied with a sarcastic tone.

Hearing this familiar voice immediately made Riani look back and gasp. Her eyes widened when she saw the figure of a tall man in black frowning and crossing his arms.

"Geez! Mr. Rangga! Sorry, I didn't know you were here!" Riani immediately lowered her head, cowering.

Seeing this scene made Lisa even more disgusted. She didn't expect that Riani would be as good in acting as Clara. Lisa then rolled her eyes and clicked her tongue.

"What's all this fuss so early in the morning?" Rangga asked suspiciously. His eyes looked at Riani, who was acting awkwardly as if she was a thief caught red-handed.

"Ugh...It's... Lisa ... She...." Riani stammered back.
