Ruby's mood immediately improved. She handed the remaining, unshredded documents back to Olivia, saying, "Next time you try to set me up, either do it openly like I did today, or do it so subtly that no one would notice. Don't leave obvious flaws for others to easily identify that it was you pulling strings behind the scenes!"
Olivia was already fuming with rage, and Ruby's words rendered her speechless. The frustration churning in her chest had nowhere to vent, and eventually turned into tears, shimmering in her eyes, threatening to fall at any moment.
Despite the touchingly pitiful sight before her, Ruby showed no mercy. She glanced at her wristwatch and spoke in a frustratingly nonchalant tone, "Olivia, there's only one minute left before Mr. Burton's meeting. If you can't submit your collaboration proposal and report in time, you'll disrupt the meeting. I wonder if Mr. Burton will fire you from Pristine's Enterprises or simply scold you?"
