Chapter 1006
He couldn’t help but ask, “Judy, did that bastard do anything to you? Are you alright?”
Judy had been trying to hold back her tears.
After all, she was the head of the studio.
If everyone saw her crying, where would her pride go?
She shook her head, indicating that she was fine.
Brian, on the other hand, started to panic.
He stood frozen, watching the crowd of coworkers rush in, with only one thought in his mind.
It was over.
His whole life was over.
Now that everyone had seen it–him trapping his boss in an office how could he possibly survive this?
He had a bright future ahead of him, and now he’d thrown it all away over one reckless mistake.
At that thought, Brian wanted to slap himself.
But the next second, when he saw Kenneth approaching, it all clicked.
Everything that happened earlier–Judy had just been stalling for me.
He pointed at her furiously and shouted, “You bitch, you were doing it on purpose?”
The flirtatious look he used to give her was gone. His eyes were filled with nothing but hatred.
It was clear–his attitude had completely changed.
Looking at Brian now, Judy found it laughable.
Wasn’t this the most obvious proof?
One moment he was professing love, and the next?
He was mocking her with cold eyes, calling her names.
If that was what love looked like, then Judy decided she’d never toch romance again.
She shook her head and gave Kenneth a faint smile, signaling that she was alright.
She knew that if anything serious happened, the studio would be delayed again.
But no matter what, she would never rehire Brian.
Kenneth comforted Judy for a while. Once he confirmed she was bly unharmed, he finally relaxed.
Judy gave herself a silent pep talk. At a moment like this, she couldn’t give up not on herself, and definitely not on all the plans she’d already laid out.
He was just a minor employee. Something this small couldn’t affe her determination to go abroad.
“Alright, as long as you’re okay,”
Kenneth raised a hand and gently ruffled the top of her soft hair.
Thankfully, he hadn’t misjudged her.

He turned and glared at the coworkers around him, eyes wide with fury. “And you all–who the hell do you right do you have to judge me? Do you even measure up?

“A bunch of arrogant nobodies!”
Judy couldn’t help but laugh at how shameless Brian still was.
“Oh? They don’t measure up, but you do? Have you even looked at yourself–do you know what you’ve become?”
Judy stepped out of Kenneth’s arms and took two slow steps forward, meeting the stares from the crowd head–on. “I’ve done nothing wrong. The one truly in the wrong here is a parasite like
you.”
Her voice rang out clearly. “And I agree with what they said. Someone like you should be behind bars.”
Brian wasn’t having it. His eyes looked crazed, like he’d snapped.
“No! I don’t accept this!”
He pointed a finger at Judy’s face and shouted, “You’re the one who seduced me, you bitch! Stop trying to twist the story!
“If you hadn’t tempted me, I wouldn’t have made this mistake!”
At that, someone nearby let out a snort of laughter.
Clearly, they were amused by how ridiculous that statement was.
No one believed a word Brian said.
Judy had money, looks, and status. A woman like her could have any man she wanted.
Why would she stoop so low as to seduce a random office worker?
Besides, Brian wasn’t anything special–just an average guy with a plain face.
At best, he was somewhat capable, but even that only counted within their small circle.
Nothing about him was truly outstanding.
All those so–called qualities were just illusions within their bubble
No one took it seriously.
His accusations were nothing but a joke.
Brian saw the looks of disdain on everyone’s faces, and panic start to set in.
He was only in his twenties–he couldn’t go to prison.
If that really happened, his life would be ruined.
He couldn’t let that happen!
Brian pounded his chest, overwhelmed by helplessness.
“Why? Why won’t any of you believe me?”
He took a few steps toward the group of coworkers, trying to get someone to meet his eyes. “I’m telling the truth! That woman seduced me!
“The woman you all call your boss? She’s nothing but a promiscuous flirt. Can’t you see it yet?”
