Chapter 916: You Better Know Your Place

Mia's actions froze the two security guards who had intended to approach her; they didn't dare to get any closer. The secretary standing at the door was also taken aback by what Mia had done.

Glancing at Zane, whose face had turned completely cold and unreadable, the secretary turned and called two female employees from outside.

"Go and pull her away," the secretary instructed in a low voice.

The two female employees were shocked when they saw the scene, but they quickly stepped forward and forcefully pulled Mia away from Zane.

As Mia was being pulled away, Zane furrowed his brow and took off his clothes, tossing them aside. "Take her out!"

The secretary nodded. "Okay."

Mia struggled to free herself, but the two female employees dragged her out of the office.

"Don't you see that he had ill intentions towards me?" Mia shouted at the two female employees who were pulling her.

"Aren't you afraid of him harassing you?" Mia yelled at them.

One of the female employees replied with a low scolding tone, "Mr. Lawrence has good eyes. Do you really think he would be interested in someone like you?"

"That's right. Did you really think we would believe your little act? Many women have tried to get close to Mr. Lawrence before. How many succeeded? You're just overestimating yourself!" Mia hadn't expected the employees of the Lawrence Group to trust Zane so much. The more she thought about it, the more resentful she became.

But what could she do even if she was resentful?

Whenever she thought of Myles's death and Bonnie's well-being, Mia's hatred consumed her.

Only when the Read family rose to power could she trample Bonnie under her feet!

When Mia was left outside the Lawrence Group's entrance, Mr. Gordts was stunned.

Looking at Mia, who appeared disheveled, Mr. Gordts was at a loss. "What... what happened?"

Albi frowned and turned to the secretary, who had followed them out. He asked in a low voice, "Jeffrey, what happened?"

Jeffrey walked up to Albi and whispered a brief account of what he had seen.

After hearing Jeffrey's words, Albi's expression showed a tinge of shock. "Is Mr. Lawrence okay?"

"He doesn't look good," Jeffrey replied.

Upon hearing Jeffrey's words, Albi's eyebrows furrowed. "This is truly unexpected."

Albi hadn't expected Mia to have the audacity to do something like this.

However, considering what Mia had done to Myles in the past, it matched her character to some extent.

Some people enjoyed doing thankless and repulsive things like that.

At the entrance of the Lawrence Group, Mr. Gordts, after Albi and Jeffrey left, turned his gaze back to Mia and sternly reprimanded her. "Idiot, who gave you the authority to act on your own?"

Mia glanced at Mr. Gordts, her face full of disarray. "Isn't it because you brought me here to accompany Zane?"

Upon hearing Mia's words, Mr. Gordts's expression slightly changed. He cautiously looked around the Lawrence Group's entrance, then stepped forward and firmly grabbed Mia's arm, pulling her toward the parked car.

Mia didn't struggle and allowed Mr. Gordts to pull her toward the car.

Once they were inside the car, Mr. Gordts instructed the driver to get out and then closed the car door.

"Don't forget, I was the one who helped the Read family when they were in a desperate situation. You better not forget your place!" Mr. Gordts shouted at Mia as she was thrown onto the seat, hitting the side and feeling dazed.

Mia couldn't refute Mr. Gordts's words because when she had entered the picture, the Read family was on the brink of bankruptcy due to Myles and Bonnie's suppression.

Indeed, it was Mr. Gordts who stepped in and managed to stabilize the situation.

Although the Read family's current state couldn't be compared to before, it was still far from facing closure.

In other words, Mr. Gordts was the Read family's savior at the moment.

After recovering from her daze, Mia looked at Mr. Gordts. "I acknowledge that you helped the Read family, but didn't you bring me here to sleep with Zane? To make things convenient for yourself?"

Mr. Gordts sneered, his eyes filled with darkness as he looked at Mia. "Do you really think someone like you can get into Zane's bed?"

As he spoke, Mr. Gordts raised his hand and grasped Mia's chin, leaning in close. "Someone like you can only be a fleeting experience for me, a taste of something new. Don't think too highly of yourself."

Mia was about to push Mr. Gordts's hand away, but he quickly held her hand, while his other hand boldly slipped into Mia's clothes and moved upward...

The driver standing by the car heard the commotion from inside the car and frowned, taking a few steps away from the vehicle, distancing himself.

The car shook with significant movement, catching the attention of passersby who glanced at it curiously.

Mia was forced to endure Mr. Gordts's abuse.

Soon, bruises started appearing on her pale skin.

After it was over, Mia leaned weakly against the seat, her face filled with embarrassment.

Mr. Gordts straightened his clothes, got up, and left, sitting on the side. "You better know your place. Since I was able to pull the Read family back from the brink , I can also kick them down again."
