The family of four reached the 32nd floor shortly.
Jane, who had just come back to work after the marriage leave, jumped out of the desk excitedly when she saw Mary and the children.
"Mary, why are you here?"
"I just came here to have a look," said Mary as she nodded at Jane. "How have you been?"
As the two ladies greeted each other, William stood aside while holding the two kids in his arms.
"I am fine," Jane responded with a smile. "Mary, boss... Are the two kids in boss's arms your children?"
"Well... yes, they are." Mary nodded and said to the two kids, "Say hi to Aunt Jane."
"Hello, Aunt Jane."
"Aunt Jane, hi."
"Good boy! Good girl!" Jane said with a maternal look. "They are so adorable, Mary. This little boy looks exactly like boss! The little girl looks like you too! I'm so envious!"
"If you are envious, you should work hard with Kevin!" Mary teased her, and laughed.
"Mary..." Jane whispered her name shyly.
"Dad, can I go out and play anywhere?" asked Elissa.
"Sure, but you have to stay on this floor only or you'll be lost." After putting Elissa down, William said to Alick, "Alick, go with your sister. Don't run or you'll get hurt."
"Got it!"
o see my father, Aunty," Elissa raised her head and answered respectfully.
"Aunty?" Beth stared at her with her hands on her hips. "Who are you? Such an uneducated brat! Haven't your parents taught you how to address others properly?! You must be the daughter of that damn assistant outside!
How dare you sneak in here? Who do you think you are?" Beth pointed at Elissa and scolded her. The more she scolded, the angrier she became. Suddenly, she reached out and pulled Elissa's ear. "You little freak!"
"Ouch!" Elissa cried in pain. She instinctively reached for her ear and tears welled up in her eyes. "You are a bad woman!" she roared. "I'll ask Dad to beat you up!"
"Beat me up? Humph!" Beth sneered, and reached out to grab Elissa's hair. "Okay! Go ahead! Ask your father to come here and see if he can beat me up!" she shouted menacingly.
"Ouch! It hurts! It hurts!" Elissa cried out because of fear and pain. She struggled to get out from Beth's grab and screamed, "Dad, help me! Mommy! Woo! Alick!"
"Elissa!" Hearing his sister's cry, Alick ran to the office immediately. As soon as he saw his sister being bullied, he rushed over and pulled Beth's clothes. "Let go of my sister!"
