Chapter 311
Once Aurelia left, Zachary rubbed the bridge of his nose and contemplated ways he could chase Aurelia out of the company.
Just then, someone lanocked on his door.
He immediately straightened his back and said, “Come in.”
He looked up and was surprised to find Kimberly entering.
It had been a while since the two had spoken, and their boss wanted everyone to ignore her.
She would either be fired for a random reason once the collaboration with her uncle ended, or they would make her quit alone.
They all thought Kimberly would quit after being dragged away by a man, but she somehow managed to pull through.
Through her uncle, she managed to find a rich man from a different city who could support her and
her uncle.
The rich man didn’t care about the drama in the office and simply allowed Kimberly to continue working.
Zachary was already troubled by this. Now, he also had to consider what to do with Aurelia.
Frowning, he asked, “What do you want?”
Kimberly took a seat and smiled.
“Mr. Zeller, I know what you are thinking.”
He shot her a displeased look.
“Do you have too much time on your hands?”
Kimberly leaned back on the chair.
“Mr. Zeller, shouldn’t you know if I’m free or not? I know something is troubling you, so I’m here to
help.”
Zachary stared at her for a few seconds before saying, “Help? I’m not sure if that’s the right word. You’re just an employee now, not a vice director.”
“Mr. Zeller, I’m getting married soon. I don’t need this job to support myself at all. You understand what I mean, right?” Kimberly hinted.
Zachary hesitated for a moment before finally understanding Kimberly’s implication.
It made sense, after all. Kimberly had found herself a wealthy businessman as a husband, so why would she need to work?

Therefore, she must have returned to the company with an ulterior motive.
“What are you trying to say, Kimberly?”
“I just want Aurelia blacklisted from the industry. If I can’t stay, then neither can she.”
Kimberly gritted her teeth.
“Nonsense!” Zachary immediately retorted.
“Haven’t you caused enough trouble already? Do you think this company is just a battlefield for your schemes?”
Kimberly sneered at his reaction and leaned forward.
“Mr Zeller, don’t you want to get rid of Aurelia? Remember that you framed her for plagiarism as well. Now that she’s gaining recognition, even the boss is noticing her. If it weren’t for my uncle’s partnership, the boss would have already promoted her to vice director. Who knows if she’ll replace someone else in the future?”
With that, Kimberly glanced pointedly at Zachary.
Who wouldn’t appreciate a capable and young subordinate?
Zachary was the person Aurelia would most likely replace.
Previously, Zachary had helped Kimberly secure the position of vice director because Kimberly posed
no threat to him.
Exposed, Zachary fell into silence.
“I’ve come to you for this matter, Mr. Zeller. Let’s get rid of Aurelia together. I’ll resign voluntarily, and then you can make things right with the boss, right?” she continued.
Zachary felt tempted by her offer, but he kept his composure. He hid his emotions and smiled at
Kimberly.
“Kimberly, you’re still too young. Do you think I’d believe you? I’ve been with this company for over 20 years. Do you think you and Aurelia can threaten me?”
“20 years, indeed. Everyone who joined the company at the same time as you is now the CEO of their own subsidiary. Why are you still just a department head?”
Kimberly’s words hit a nerve, and Zachary’s lips twitched in response.
“Why you…”
“Don’t be angry. Words are just words. I’ve prepared something special for you,” Kimberly said slyly.
