Falling 27 Hearing this , Florentino pecked her forehead soothingly . Then he picked up a pen on the desk , signed the resignation decisively , and shoved it toward Sandria . " As you wish . " Sandria had been nothing but obedient last night . And today , she suddenly showed up here , causing trouble for him ? Sure enough , he should never be lenient with her . Suddenly , he felt so fed up with her . If she kept being so willful and dramatic , he might seriously consider dumping her for good . The sight of the affectionate pair turned Sandria's stomach . She picked up the paper and glanced at Florentino mockingly . " Dude , your front door's unlocked . " After saying this , she walked out , not sparing them another glance . Florentino lowered his head to check and instantly pulled an even longer face . Meanwhile , Courtney's expression changed a little , too . But she took a deep breath before saying , " Ms. Farley , wait . Why don't you have some water before leaving ? You look terrible . " With that , she picked up a teacup from the desk and handed it over with an affectedly warming smile . Sandria looked at her icily without moving . Courtney walked toward her , seemingly about to put the teacup into her hand . Just then , she tripped . Letting out a sharp cry , she fell right toward Sandria . The scalding tea would spill in the next second . Just then , Sandria stepped aside and tilted her body in time . Then she gripped Courtney's wrist and pushed Courtney away . Every last bit of the tea splashed onto Courtney's wrist . She screamed miserably , her piercing shriek echoing in the quiet office . Sandria found her lame trick laughable . Tossing her cascading curls aside , she said with a careless smile , " Oops , that looks painful . Ms. Mosley , you should be more careful . " 0.0 % 07:11 Chapter 27 The back of Courtney's fair hand reddened , blisters forming . " Courty ! Are you OK ? Sandria , you did this on purpose ! " Florentino panicked . He rushed toward Courtney without hesitation and pushed Sandria aside . 288 iVouchers Caught off guard , Sandria lost balance due to his brute force . She stumbled back , her slender arm slamming hard against the sharp edge of the desk . A sharp pain shot through her , and she looked down , only to see blood streaming down her arm . However , he couldn't even be bothered to glance at her . He carefully held Courtney's injured hand , picked her up , and rushed outside , his face filled with distress and anxiety . " Don't be afraid , Courty . I'll take you to the hospital right now . Sandria , I'll deal with you when I get back . " Sandria stood in place , the searing pain from the wound on her arm turning her fingers numb . She lowered her gaze , sneered , and pressed a few tissues to the wound . Exactly how stupid she had been ? What was she thinking , clinging to Florentino like he was the best man in the world ? As soon as she stepped out of the office , she met dozens of gossipy eyes . Linda , who had never gotten along with her , immediately walked over . Crossing her arms over her chest , she grinned , gloating . " Well , well . Isn't this Sandria ? You were fired ? Finally . And what happened to your arm ? How come it's bleeding ? Gee … Serves you right . " Sandria stopped in her tracks and glanced at Linda indifferently . " You were wrong . I didn't get fired . I quit . " She waved the resignation letter casually and smiled mockingly . " Honestly , you should spare your concern for yourself . " That goody two - shoes will come for you next . I'm just the first she dealt with . After all , she's Mr. Burnham's beloved . Do you really think she'll tolerate any woman in this office being prettier than her ? " Linda's expression changed slightly , but she soon regained composure , " Stop trying to sow discord , Sandria . Admit it - you're just jealous . Ms. Mosley is pretty , kind - hearted , and well - bred . She's way better than any of us . Unlike you , she's not scheming at all .

The cut on her arm wasn't deep , but it still needed to be treated properly because it had been bleeding . The nurse dealt with her wound gently , but she still couldn't help but gasp . " Ma'am , this needs a couple of stitches , or it'll likely scar . " Sandria nodded . As she was about to speak , someone violently shoved the door open . 90.6 %
