Chapter 219 Either Accept It or Resign
- “Anyone can take up the project. I can take up any project except this one!” As Rachel failed to struggle free of Justin’s grasp, she gritted her teeth and said, “Since this project is such an easy job, let someone else take it up instead. Lots of people would want to work on this!”
- As soon as she finished her sentence, a gust of wind brushed against her ear. Justin slapped his hand against the door frame behind her ear, trapping her in a huge shadow by forming an enclosure with his arm and the wall in the corner. “I’m not consulting with you. This is a notice—either accept it or resign,” he asserted in a peremptory tone with a frosty look in his eyes.
- Rachel glared at Justin; the feelings of resentment that had accumulated for many years surged in her chest, causing her to tremble involuntarily. She had thousands of reasons to say no to Justin’s threat, but she nevertheless replied, “I’ll accept it.” She agreed to take up the project only for one reason—she had to stay at Burton Pharmaceuticals by Justin’s side to find the evidence linked to Hans’ death. “I’ll accept it. Can you let go of me now?” She gradually calmed down while looking at the man fearlessly with an extremely cold look in her eyes.
