My Husband Wanted to Elope with His Childhood Sweetheart
Chapter 3
I called the personnel manager. After a while, my nemesis, Jacob Whitman, came to my office.
Jacob's performance had been inferior to mine, but he was arrogant and often slandered me behind my back.
At this point, Jacob looked condescending. "What's the matter? Am I supposed to report to you for recruiting an intern?"
"You need to meet the company's requirements when you recruit."
Jacob didn't care about it. "She's just an intern, and she only gets a thousand dollars a month, which I can pay for it. I think Joyce is young and pretty, and she's highly educated, so why doesn't she fit in anymore? Isabella, are you jealous of her?"
Joyce hurriedly grabbed Jacob's arm. "Jacob, Isabella treats me the best, and I can't make her satisfied."
She looked aggrieved, but she truly couldn't hide the smugness in her eyes as she looked at me.
"Whatever. You'll take care of the new employee you've recruited, and don't bother me with my work. Please get out."
The two left in disappointment when they didn't see that I was upset.
However, Joyce had never understood a word I said.
The next morning, Joyce pushed her way straight through the door, and she handed me a paper bag. "Isabella, these are my handmade cookies. How about you try some?"
"I'm a coach, and I need to control my sugar intake. Also, you need to knock when you come into my office from now on."
"I only put a little sugar in it, and I took you into consideration." Joyce took out a cookie and put it directly to my mouth, shoving it into my mouth. "Isabella, taste it. I've been studying for a long time!"
"I told you I won't eat it!"
I moved Joyce's arm away, but she took the opportunity to fall backward and screamed so loudly that the cookies were suddenly scattered all over the floor.
The other employees ran over when they heard her voice, and Joyce purposely blurted out, "Isabella, it'll be fine if you don't eat it, but why did you push me?"
Jacob rushed in to help Joyce up and said furiously, "Isabella, even if you're jealous of Joyce, you can't go this far!"
"There's a surveillance camera in the office, you can see if I pushed her!"
I switched my computer to the monitoring page.
The surveillance camera suddenly broke down, and it went black!
"When did you break my surveillance camera?"
"I'm not that interested in it," Jacob denied, "You're afraid of leaving evidence, so you're deliberately setting them up, aren't you?"
I gasped, "Get out!"
The next day, the video of me bullying a colleague made headlines on the company forums.
Since I was definitely ahead of the curve, many employees in the company were jealous of me, and they were sarcastic in the comment section, saying that they were being bullied by me as well.
The whole thing kept on festering.
Fortunately, I did very well in the company, and my boss, Victor Hastings, just called me and asked me a few questions before letting me put on my normal makeup for live streaming.
In addition to being a personal fitness trainer during the week, I also did live streaming online explaining fitness precautions. I would sell fitness products online, and I was considered a spokesperson for our company.
However, my live room was occupied today.
I knock on the door. "Please move out of my place, and I'm going to have a live streaming."
Jacob came out of it, closing the door tightly. "I'm going to use this room. If you're going to do a live streaming, you'll need to find another room."
I glanced at my watch. "My live streaming has started at this hour every day."
Jacob didn't care about it. "So what? You used to be the sales champion all the time, but now it's going to be me."
He returned to the live room after that and immediately closed the door tightly.
I wanted to call Victor for instructions, but I suddenly realized something.
Victor would also watch the live streaming, so how could he not know about it?
He wasn't going to fire me right away, but he was at least willing to share a portion of my performance to avoid being threatened.
I calmed down and had an idea. I was going to do live streaming directly from the yoga studio on my private account.
"We're on a long vacation, and I'm going to teach yoga for relaxation and meditation. If anyone has any questions, feel free to leave them in my comment section!"
Due to my standard and elegant postures, and my style of live streaming was humorous and practical, I surprisingly set a new record for the number of people in my live room, and people were coming to follow my private account.
Jacob and Joyce were lack of experience, and Joyce's figure didn't match the expectations of fitness enthusiasts, so she received a lot of skepticism.
The fans suspected that I had a problem with the company, so they simply unfollowed my official account of the company.
Victor called and explained to me that he had no idea and that it was a complete accident, and he said that the live room would always be for my use only from now on.
I declined.
Even though I wasn't going to quit my job for a while, I really should have gotten a new one.
They reminded me to do so.
However, Joyce's live streaming surprisingly took off in reverse a month later.
