Chapter 16 A Stupid Trick
Tianna received a package from Bobby in Ravenbourne during lunch. She took out the overhearing device and glanced at Randall’s office not far
away.
She was a bit hesitant, as Randall was now on guard against her, making it hard for her to get close.
Just as she was feeling troubled, Camille next to her approached with a hint of shyness. “Tianna, are you busy this afternoon?”
“No, why?” She looked over, puzzled.
Camille handed her a document. “I have some family matters this afternoon, but I need to get this document signed by the supplier. Could you do me a favor?”
She looked embarrassed, not daring to meet Tianna’s eyes.
Tianna took the document and casually flipped through it. Then she smiled and asked, “Are you sure you want me to help you with this?”
Camille nodded.
“Alright, I’ll do it for you.” Tianna took the document and smiled at her.
“Thanks, I owe you one. I’ll treat you to dinner some other day,” Camille thanked her and got up to leave.
Tianna delivered the document for Camille in the morning. By the time she sat down in the afternoon, she saw Randall storming over.
“What’s
wrong with you?”
Chapter 154 Sturd Track.
Randall strode straight to her and shouted furiously, “How could you mess up a simple contract like this? I’m seriously doubting your capabilities!”
Tianna was very confused.
The entire department looked over. Tianna came back to her senses and asked helplessly, “Mr. Duarte, can you please tell me what happened? I feel wronged now.”
“You were in charge of the contract with the Upswing Group, right? How could you not notice the extra zero in the purchase price? Do you know how much money this has cost the company?” said Randall in a solemn
voice.
The Upswing Group was the company Tianna had helped Camille send the contract to for signing in the morning.
Before Tianna could speak, Randall continued, “You’re so careless that you’re not fit for the Purchasing Department. Go to the HR Department and resign now.”
“Mr. Duarte, this might not be appropriate.”
Tianna sneered, “As busy as you are, how would you notice that I was in charge of such a small contract with the Upswing Group? Who told you this?”
Tianna glanced at Camille, who was standing at the door. Camille said she had to take a leave this afternoon, but in fact, she hadn’t left the company at all.
“I’m the department manager, so I’m clear about everything.” Randall’s expression didn’t look good, probably realizing Tianna wasn’t buying his
act.
“Really? I don’t think you’re clear about this matter.” Tianna tittered and
Chapter 16 A Stupid Trick
pointed at Camille, who was standing not far away. “This contract was written by her, and she asked me to deliver it for her. Before that, I had no idea about the cooperation with the Upswing Group.”
Being mentioned, Camille instantly felt everyone’s gaze on her. She couldn’t help but shiver and quickly explained, “Tianna, why are you smearing me? I didn’t know anything about this contract. It was you who delivered it. so how could it be my fault?”
She looked wronged, and with her slim appearance, she seemed very pitiful.
“I smeared you? Ridiculous…”
“That’s enough!” Randall waved his hand and shouted angrily. “That’s it for this matter. If you go to the HR Department to resign yourself, I won’t ask you to compensate for the company’s losses.”
Tianna crossed her arms in front of her chest and sneered, “Don’t you think it’s a bit foolish to force me to leave with such a stupid trick? It obviously doesn’t make any sense.”
“You…”
“First of all, I’m still an intern, so I don’t have the qualifications to handle procurement contracts. Even if I had to, it should be arranged by my team leader, right? Why don’t you ask Evelyn if she has assigned this task to me?” As Tianna spoke, everyone’s gaze turned to Evelyn, including Randall.
Evelyn immediately tensed up. Actually, Randall had warned her what to say beforehand.
However, she was now standing with Tianna. Therefore, if she listened to Randall, she was afraid that Tianna wouldn’t spare her.
Evelyn hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, “Camille, I
clearly assigned hands?”
Her words shocked everyone.
They didn’t expect Camille to be lying.
Randall’s face turned extremely black, and he looked at Evelyn with a meaningful yet obviously cold gaze.
He then turned to look at Tianna. He was a bit surprised by the fact that she had already pulled Evelyn to her side.
Camille was flustered. She quickly walked over to Randall and said. pitifully, “Mr. Duarte, it’s not me…”
Just as Randall was about to speak, a group of people walked in, led by Cohen and the company’s other vice CEO, Frederick Fleming.
“We can hear you guys from afar. Is this a shopping mall?” Frederick frowned and looked at Randall with displeasure.
Seeing them two, Randall immediately welcomed them with a smile. “It’s just a small matter. Sorry to bother you two. I’ll handle it right away.”
He clearly wanted to pressure Tianna with his rank, but Tianna naturally wouldn’t let him have his way. Therefore, she decided to make a big deal
out of it.
“Mr. Hudson, Mr. Fleming, Mr. Duarte is framing me for causing the company a huge loss!” She explained the matter from beginning to end. with a meaningful look.
After hearing that, both Cohen and Frederick frowned. Frederick said, “So, who exactly made the mistake with the contract? Can’t you figure it
out?”
‘Well, we have no surveillance cameras in the department, so we can’t
Chapter 16 A Stupid Trick
figure it out,” Randall said with a confident expression.
Then he continued. “No matter who wrote the contract, it was delivered.
by Tianna. Mr. Hudson, I don’t mind how many interns you want to put in
my department, but she doesn’t even have the most basic business
knowledge. She didn’t even confirm the contract before signing it with our supplier.
“She made a mistake, but she didn’t admit it. Instead, she even tried to weasel her way out of it. I can’t stand such an employee in the Purchasing Department.”
Hearing that, Tianna was really impressed by Randall’s eloquence.
Clearly, he was saying that even if Tianna wasn’t the one writing the contract, she was the one delivering it. As a result, she should be responsible for the mistake.
Frederick was dissatisfied upon hearing that. He glanced at Tianna and said. “If you can’t figure out who made the mistake, then fire them both. There’s no place in Radiance Group for incompetent employees who made such a small mistake.”
After finishing, he turned to leave, not planning to waste any more time on this trivial matter.
Randall was delighted. As long as he could get rid of Tianna, he didn’t mind firing Camille as well. Just as he was about to tell the HR Department to fire Tianna, Tianna said, “Wait!
“Mr. Fleming, you didn’t even read the contract and didn’t investigate the matter thoroughly, which led to innocent employees being falsely accused and forced to resign. If this were to spread, how would the other employees view Radiance Group? Wouldn’t they feel disappointed?”
Everyone immediately looked worried. They could tell that Randall was deliberately framing Tianna. However, as the vice CEO, Frederick did not
Chapter 16 A Stupid Trick
speak up for Tianna. Instead, he directly fired her. Seeing that, everyone inevitably felt worried.
After all, everyone might be the second Tianna,
Randall’s face darkened, and he shouted, “Tianna, Shut up! How dare you question Mr. Fleming’s decision?”
Tianna picked up the contract that Randall had thrown on the floor and turned to the last page. “Mr. Duarte, there is indeed an extra zero on the contract with the Upswing Group, but that’s on the purchase quantity.”
“What do you mean?” Randall was somewhat flustered.
Tianna’s words not only shocked Randall, but the entire office was stunned.
An extra zero on the purchase quantity meant that they could buy ten times the original amount.
In that case, Tianna should be praised for making the mistake.
The atmosphere instantly became very awkward.
Frederick looked at the figure on the contract, and his face instantly turned dark. “Why would you not even know how to read a contract? Come to my office, Randall Duarte!” After saying that, he turned and left.
Cohen suddenly burst out laughing and looked at Tianna with great admiration. “Tia, you did a great job. I’ll tell the HR Department to convert you to a regular employee in advance.”
“Thank you, Mr. Hudson, but Mr. Duarte…”
He looked coldly at the two people who had left and said calmly, “It’s not time yet.”
Hearing that, Tianna couldn’t help but frown.

She had suspected that there might be someone behind Randall, and Frederick’s actions made it hard for her not to suspect him.
She had never thought that person would be Frederick.
