Chapter 53 You Are Too Weak
Soon, she led the project team of the Doyle Group to negotiate with the Williams Group and signed the
cooperation agreement successfully.
When the good news was announced in the Doyle Group, everyone admired Martha for her
competence, including the shareholders who didn't have confidence in Martha.
Much to their surprise, Martha had obtained the cooperation.
All the shareholders expected high profits. Therefore, they stopped objecting to Martha for being an
executive director in the Doyle Group.
One day, when Hollie entered the lounge, she overheard a few secretaries and assistants gossip.
"Ms. Martha Doyle is pretty and competent. She could even reach cooperation with the Williams Group.
Compared to her, Ms. Hollie Doyle is too lame."
"If she wasn't close to Mr. Harrison, how could she have become the deputy president? How could the
shareholders have approved of her?"
"I agree. She obtained the position relying on her relationship with Mr. Harrison. So it makes sense that
she's less capable."
...
Listening to their discussions, Hollie stood motionlessly in the lounge, her bad mood worsening.
She hadn't expected Martha to win the partnership with the Williams Group for real.
However, Hollie didn't think it would mean anything.
Four years ago, she had kicked Martha away, and so could she do it now.
Hollie straightened her hairstyle, raised her chin, and made some coffee. However, the secretaries and
assistants continued the juicy gossip.
"Which one will Mr. Harrison choose between the Doyle sisters?"
"One is his ex-wife, and the other is his current girlfriend. He must find it difficult to make a decision."
"I support Ms. Hollie Doyle. After all, she has has been with Mr. Harrison for the past four years."
"I take Ms. Martha Doyle's side. They married before. For old feelings' sake, Mr. Harrison might be in
love with her again."
Hollie heard this and finally could not restrain herself any longer.
She glared at the lounge door and smashed her cup onto the table. "The lunch break is over. You still
have time to to chitchat here? Do you want me to deduct your salaries?"
The lounge became pin-drop silent. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
The next second, sounds of pulling chairs and tables were heard. The door was opened, and several
women walked out with awkward looks.
"Good afternoon, Ms. Doyle."
After greeting her, they picked up their cups and fled out of the lounge.
When they left, Martha happened to fetch some coffee.
Seeing them rushing out of the lounge hurriedly, she was confused, wondering why they all looked
panicked, as if they had seen a ghost.
Without overthinking it, Martha entered the lounge.
Then she saw Hollie standing next to the water dispenser with a stern face.
Ignoring her, Martha walked towards the coffee machine.
From the corner of her eyes, Hollie noticed her. Her repressed anger surged again.
With an ironic smile, she mocked loudly, "Martha, you've gained the cooperation. You must feel
complacent now, huh?"
Martha calmly put down her cup and turned on the coffee machine, answering in a businesslike tone. "I
just did what I should do as a director. Why would I be complacent?"
When Hollie heard this, she felt nothing but anger.
From Hollie's standpoint, Martha seemed to be implying, "It's not that I'm too strong. It's that you are
too incapable."
