In the afternoon, Naomi went out with Emma to meet with their clients.
Truth be told, she had done this kind of thing before. When she had first come into contact with this industry, she had often visited clients.
However, this particular visit seemed to be more difficult than the ones she had done at the beginning of her career.
In the past, they had no idea about her identity and had not bothered to talk to her.
Now that they knew who she was, they were willing to talk to her, but there was only sarcasm in their eyes.
Naomi carried a faint smile on her face. She looked at the man in front of her. His name was Freddie and he looked overweight, estimated to be more than 180 kilograms.
He continued to talk, âYouâre Miss Granger, arenât you? Weâve heard so much about you! However, Iâm afraid that we canât cooperate with you! Youâve nearly ruined Valiant East. We are just a small company and cannot afford to be played with.â
Emma, who had a bad temper, immediately became furious upon hearing his words.
âWhat are you talking about? How could Valiant East collapse?â
âEmma!â Naomi quickly pulled Emma back. The corners of her lips contracted slightly, and she squeezed out a smile as she looked at Freddie.
âSir, the rumors outside cannot be completely trusted. I admit that I have affected the company this time, but I wonât make such a mistake again. Please give us another chance!â
âAnother chance?â Freddie shook his head. âWell, Miss Granger, youâve been dumped anyway. Why donât you go back and tell President Granger that Iâm willing to accept your hand in marriage! By doing so, my company will be connected to the Granger family through marriage, and we can work together in the future. What do you think about that idea?â
The more he said, the more contemptuous he became!
Emmaâs eyes were wide open.
âWhat wishful thinking! Take a look at yourself in the mirror first!â
âWhat did you say?â Freddieâs face turned pale with rage. He said angrily, âYou b*tch, you were the one who came to me for help! How dare you talk to me like this?â
âWhatâs wrong with that? This is how I usually speak. Iâve been enduring you for a long time since youâre a client! However, that doesnât mean that you can insult people, you stinking rat!â
âYouâ¦â Freddie was furious. He got up and grabbed Emma. He was strong, so although Emma wanted to avoid him, a lock of her hair was pulled off.
The pain made her eyes turn red.
The next second, Naomi grabbed Freddieâs wrist.
âHow dare you touch her?â
The chilling atmosphere that Naomi gave off instantly made his heart tighten. Even his hair stood up subconsciously.
âWh-what are you doing? Donât forget that I am your client. If you dare to do this to me, who else will dare to cooperate with Valiant East? Your reputation has fallen anyway!â
Emma had held high expectations in the first place, but she became anxious as soon she heard Freddieâs words.
âForget it, Naomi. Iâm fine. My hair will still grow back. Letâs go.â
When Freddie saw her response, he thought that they were afraid of him and immediately became arrogant.
âYouâve finally understood? Why didnât you leave earlier? Itâs too late now. If you want to go out, come and kiss me on my face and call me âdarlingâ. Otherwiseâ¦â
He looked at the two of them with a proud face.
âOtherwise, Iâll send out the video of what you just did.â
Naomi just noticed that there was a small camera next to Freddieâs office.
It seemed that it was not the first time that he had done such a bad thing.
âDespicable! Shameless!â
She scolded him.
âWhatever! I have to say, the members of the Granger family really are good-looking! I heard that Mrs. Grangerâs beauty is out of this world. Sheâs the most beautiful woman in Rosaville City! Itâs a pity that I canât see her face. However, today, at least I can get a kiss from her daughter! Come on!â
After that, he opened his arms and opened his mouth with a welcome gesture.
His face was revolting. Naomi closed her eyes and said, âDonât push your luck!â
Emma made up her mind and said, âIâll do it.â
âEmma!â
Naomi grabbed her and said, âDonât be silly.â
âIâm not being a fool,â Emma shook her head. She explained, âAlthough you all donât blame me, I know that my actions harmed everyone. Frida was a bad person and itâs because I was a fool that I was used! Itâs because of me that our company had to suffer so much. I really donât have the dignity to face anyone anymore! Let me do it!â
âYou?â Freddie shook his head. âIf itâs you then it would not be just a kiss! Youâre not pretty, but at leastâ¦â
As he spoke, his eyes wandered up and down Emmaâs body.
Emmaâs mind was puzzled, but her face instantly turned pale after his actions.
However, in the next second, her eyes landed on the camera and she nodded again. She said, âOkay, as long as Iâm willing to agree with your request, you need to let Miss Naomi go and you must destroy that video!â
âOkay! Deal!â
After that, she walked toward Freddie.
Freddieâs face was filled with pride as he said with a satisfied tone, âThatâs a good girl.â
A gust of wind blew past before his eyes as Naomi threw a powerful punch at him.
âScumbag!â
âOw!â Freddie covered his eyes and shouted in pain, âB*tch! How dare you hit me? Guards, come in! Are you all that useless?â
After that, the door was pushed open, and a large group of people entered, surrounding Naomi and Emma instantly.
Freddie, who had been beaten up, could no longer think things through. He only thought about how to torture Emma and Naomi.
He gritted his teeth and said.
He ordered, âDid you see that? Sheâs the eldest daughter of the Granger family. If any of you can take her down, feel free to play with them by then!â
Everyone looked at each other. Thinking that since they had done many bad things everyday, they knew what was going on in an instant.
Then, the group of people gathered around Naomi and Emma.
Emma grabbed Naomiâs arm and said, âMiss Naomiâ¦â
âDonât be afraid, close your eyes!â Naomi dragged Emma over, turned around, and stood in front of her.
Emma felt like she was about to fly. She no longer dared to open her eyes as she heard the sounds of punches and kicks.
When she opened her eyes again, Naomi grabbed her hand.
âRun!â
There was the sound of wind in Emmaâs ears. She could barely see the group of men that had been beaten to the ground. They were all covering their faces and grimacing in pain!
After the two of them ran out, Naomi called Emma again.
âGet into the car and drive to a secluded place. Iâll be right there.â
Emma did not manage to ask further questions before seeing Naomi rush back.
She stood there for a moment, then hurried to the car as her heart was pounding hard. After waiting for a long time, she was just about to call the police when she saw Naomi coming out of the building in a hurry.
She opened the door and got into the car like those superheroes in movies.
âLetâs go.â
The car immediately drove away. After they drove a long distance, they looked back and saw that no one was chasing them.
They laughed. After she came to her senses, Emma said âThat was so exciting!â However, she soon became depressed again. She asked, âDid we cause problems for the company again?â
Naomi shook her head and said, âNo, Iâve deleted the video!â
Emma immediately shouted, âNaomi, youâre amazing!â
Naomi said determinedly, âI will not let anyone hurt the people around me again.â
