Chapter 157: Do You Still Want to Talk to Babe?

In the CEO's office.



Maddox looked at the two people standing in front of the table, maintaining a poker face, deep and
unfathomable.



His slender fingers tapped the table rhythmically. After a while, he said slowly, "Ms. Luu, do you have
anything to say?"



"Mr. Shen, it was not like what Ms. Lina said."



Looking at the handsome man, Lonny forgot to admire his pretty face and hurriedly explained.



Maddox raised his eyebrows. "What was it like?"



"It was that...” Lonny glanced at Lina beside her and looked down to hide the coldness in her eyes. "I
accidentally tripped Manager Tang.”



“Accidentally?” Maddox snorted and his face darkened. "Do you think I would believe you?”





"Mr. Shen, I didn't..."



Lonny was about to continue to explain when Maddox raised his hand to stop her. He turned to Lina
and said, "Find someone in the Media Department to take over her job, and ask the Personnel
Department to pay her salary."



"Yes." Lina replied respectfully.



“Wait a moment!" Upon hearing that she was about to be fired, Lonny was anxious. "Mr. Shen, listen to
me. Things were not like that. I was really just careless."



Maddox looked up at her with a mocking smile. "Lonny. If you own up to the things you did, I might
think that you are honest at least. Perhaps I can give you another chance for that."



"Mr. Shen, Lonny intentionally harmed her colleagues. TEG can't keep such an employee." Lina
frowned and looked at him with disapproval.





A trace of malice flashed through Lonny's eyes. Was Lina deliberately trying to make things difficult for
her?



"Mr. Shen. Yes, I did it. But it was only because I was angry at that time. I definitely didn't mean to hurt
Ms. Rosiley.”



She admitted it only because what Maddox had said about giving her a chance just now.



She knew what was good for her and didn't want to lose her job.



When Maddox heard it, he smiled enigmatically, "Since you admit it, I'll give you a chance.”



Lonny looked very pleased while Lina was anxious. "Mr. Shen, you...”



Before she could finish her sentence, Maddox raised his hand to stop her. Then he said, "Ms. Lina,
choose someone in the Media Department to replace Lonny.’



Lonny's beaming face froze in an instant.





"She is just an ordinary entertainment reporter from now on,” Maddox continued.



Although Lina did not understand why Maddox let Lonny stay, she was quite pleased to see her lose
her position in the company.



"Mr. Shen, Yayoi from the Media Department has been in the company for a few years. She has a good
work ethic and is very kind. I think she is qualified for the position of deputy manager."



Lina's words did not conceal her love for Yayoi.



Birds of a feather flock together. Rosiley was so smart and outstanding, so her friends couldn't be bad.



That girl? Maddox raised his eyebrows and nodded. "It's up to you."



"Mr. Shen, I don't agree.”



Lonny was unwilling to accept the result.





If she lost her position as the deputy manager, Rosiley would be one level above her. Rosiley would
definitely give her a hard time in the future.



She would rather be expelled than be inferior to Rosiley.



"This is a punishment for your mistakes,’ Maddox said in a deep voice.



“But...”



Lonny wanted to say something else, but Lina interrupted her. "Lonny, Mr. Shen has given you a
chance. If you don't cherish it, you can leave TEG."



Looking at the serious and cold Lina, Lonny was controlling her anger.



‘Leave?’ She sneered in her heart. Lina and Rosiley must be eager to get rid of her. She couldn't give
them the satisfaction.





Thus, she took a deep breath and suppressed the unwillingness and resentment. She tried her best to
squeeze out a smile. Looking down, she said pleasantly, "Thank you, Mr. Shen. I will cherish this
opportunity.”



"Good." Maddox smiled with satisfaction, and then sent them back to work.



As soon as they left, Maddox quickly took out his phone and dialed Rosiley's number.



“Hello.”



He picked up the phone and a cold voice sounded.

It was not Rosiley!



Maddox was surprised for a moment. "Yayoi?"



“Rosiley was resting. Is there anything I can do for you??"



It was still the cold voice without the slightest trace of warmth.





"Babe, are you still angry?"



Maddox smiled faintly.



There was silence. Maddox thought that he had been hung up. He hurriedly took a look at his phone.
He was still on the call.



He put the phone back in his ear and whispered, "Babe!"



“Maddox, who are you calling Babe?"



The voice on the other side of the phone suddenly changed, scaring Maddox so much that he almost
threw the phone away.



"Why didn't you tell me? What a naughty girl!" He muttered.



Rosiley did not hear clearly. "Maddox, what are you talking about? What naughty girl?"





"No, nothing.” Maddox raised his hand to wipe away the sweat that didn't even exist, and then quickly
changed the topic. "Rosiley, how are you?"



"It's just a scald.”



“Is it serious?"



"Mild scald. I will be alright after applying some medicine for a few days."



“Will there be a scar?"



“The doctor said no."



Maddox heaved a long sigh of relief when he heard that she wouldn't have a scar. "That's not so bad."



"Why are you so nervous?"





“I am afraid that Sachin will come after me."



Maddox laughed dryly.



It was his fault that Rosiley encountered this kind of danger in the company. He was ready to be
responsible for it. If she left a scar or something, Sachin would skin him alive.



Judging from how Sachin treasured her, he would very possibly be skinned alive.



Rosiley laughed softly. "Don't be afraid. I will protect you."



“Rosiley..." Maddox was touched.



"Be good." Rosiley's voice was very relaxed and joyful. Then, she changed the topic. "What did you do
with Lonny?”



When it came to business, Maddox's expression changed and he told her everything about Lonny.





"You did the right thing not to fire her.”



Hearing her tone, Maddox felt somewhat relieved. He knew he was right and took credit for it. "Rosiley,
I thought a lot for you before I made the decision."



"Really? Tell me."



Maddox was even more enthusiastic. "Firing Lonny is pretty easy for me. But it is unfair to you."



"Why is it unfair?"



"Think about it. Firing her is too good for her. After she leaves, she just needs to find another company
and will thrive there. So why don't we keep her here without giving her any real position? You can get
her wrapped around your finger for a while.”



"Yes. That makes sense.”





What he thought was not much different from her own ideas. She also felt that firing Lonny was too
good for her. Such a scheming person could not be spared easily.



"You can come to work after resting for a few days. I will fix Lonny for you."



"Thank you then."



“You're welcome.”



"Do you still want to talk to 'Babe'?"



Something dropped. Maddox accidentally swept the book on the table to the ground.



On the other side, someone bumped on the door frame. Yayoi, who was going to help Rosiley get
some water, heard the word "Babe" when she reached the door and bumped on the door frame.



Rosiley curled her lips, and a trace of an enigmatic smile played across her face.
