Nia Mitchell looked at Shirley Grant in confusion, not quite understanding the reason behind her gloating expression.
"I don't need you to plead for me." Nia smiled faintly and sat back down in her seat.
Her computer's chatbox had unread messages; they were from Diana Hill.
"I'm sorry."
Nia was taken aback, somewhat puzzled as to why Diana was apologizing. Was it because she had been forced to take that call earlier?
"It's okay."
She replied simply, hoping Diana wouldn't blame herself too much. After all, the situation had forced her hand; she couldn't have done otherwise.
Nia returned to her work. She never went out of her way to cause trouble for others.
She was handling official business and had barely warmed her seat when Phoebe Walker ran out of the CEO Office, crying.
"Nia Mitchell, what right do you have?!" Phoebe shouted, tears streaming down her face, completely unconcerned about her image at that moment.
