Filed To Story: The Plan of Saving Nora Novel Free
Every word of hers was like a knife that stabbed right at all the people who had condemned Nora just now.
They were all straightforward men. Knowing that they had misunderstood her, some of them immediately apologized. “Sorry about that, Nora! We really didn’t know…”
“Yeah. What’s going on, though? Ruth claimed the credit for herself just like that. It’s only because we misunderstood that we…”
“Why did Ruth claim false credit for it, though?”
While everyone was talking about it, Ruth returned. With a guilty look on her face, she immediately said, “I’m sorry, everyone! It was a misunderstanding on my part! After so long, it turns out that it was a misunderstanding!”
After speaking, she handed her cell phone to Damon.
Displayed on the screen was her chat history with Y on Messenger.
Ruth: ‘Wasn’t it you who helped us fix the network bug last night?’
Y: ‘No. When I infiltrated the system after agreeing to help, I found that the bug had already been fixed, but I forgot to tell you about it.’
Ruth sighed and said, “Y has always been unsociable and eccentric, and he rarely speaks. He didn’t inform me about it. Moreover, the moment I arrived at the office today, Damon said that the bug had been fixed, so I assumed it was Y… Ms. Smith, I formally apologize for what I said just now! You should still speak up if something happens again next time, though The department is full of men, so their thoughts are all very straightforward. They won’t get it if you don’t say anything.”
Tsk.
She was accusing Nora of not being genuine enough now.
Nora looked at her and asked, “Are you very familiar with Y?”
To think she even had him on her Messenger!
Even she didn’t have Y as a contact on Messenger. The chat window in the Hacker Alliance was her only way of contacting Y!
Ruth was too much!
The rest, however, felt enlightened. “I knew it, it’s just a misunderstanding!”
Elsewhere, Brenda, who had already walked out of the crowd, stared at Ruth.
At this moment, her cell phone suddenly beeped.
She looked down and saw a message from Justin: ‘Have you asked her? Why is Nora ignoring me?’
Brenda took out her cell phone and sent Justin an audio message: “It’s all y’s fault, Justin. If I were Nora, I would also be really mad! Someone named Ruth, who joined the department recently, said that she’s friends with Y and embarrassed Nora! Quick, go and ask him why he has a friend like that!”
Justin: “?”
To think that was why Nora was angry! In that case, he would have to explain things properly to the public!
Justin narrowed his eyes and called Brenda straightaway. He asked, “What exactly is going on? Make it clear.”
He obviously wouldn’t know that a new employee had joined the special department, so he needed to ask for the specifics.
Brenda told him what had happened.
Justin fell silent. Then, he said, “I see.”
“?יי :Brenda
She panicked. “What do you mean ‘I see’? Ruth is no kind soul! It’s obvious that she’s a complete bitch, and she keeps making things difficult for Nora in the department both openly and secretly! It’s so infuriating! Hurry up and contact Y! Doesn’t he listen to you the most? Get him to just blacklist Ruth, lest she uses his name to throw her weight about here!!”
Justin replied, “Yeah okay, I’m hanging up.”
Brenda: “??”
As she stared at the disconnected phone, she simply felt so anxious on Justin’s behalf.
Nora was already so mad. Why didn’t he seem anxious at all? Besides, this was really a tricky situation.
After all, Y was only an employee of the Hunt Corporation. To be honest, even Justin wouldn’t have the right to interfere with Y’s right to make friends, right?
In addition, most of the employees in the special department were men. Once they cleared things up, they would all just drop it and wouldn’t hold any grudges.
As a result, the atmosphere had returned to a harmonious one now.
“Ruth, are you actually that familiar with Y?! You actually have him on Messenger! And he instantly replies to your messages too!”
Ruth lowered her head and smiled. “We’re alright, I guess. He didn’t reply to me the whole day yesterday, though, so I got angry last night. That’s why he’s paying extra attention today.”
“???י :Nora
Hah!
That scumbag had sent her a few messages the day before, but she hadn’t paid him any attention. As it turned out, he had gone to coax Ruth and make her happy instead? Although Ruth might not even know Y in reality, she just didn’t feel like paying any attention to Justin now!
Nora took a deep breath.
At this time, Damon walked up to her and bowed a little. “Sorry about that, Nora! I was too impulsive just now! I mouthed off to you when I didn’t even know what was going on. I know you’re probably still angry. You can beat me up and vent your anger!”
Nora: “…”
The corners of her lips spasmed as she looked at Damon. She couldn’t be bothered to hit him, though, so she said, “No, it’s fine.”
She wasn’t trying to specifically help Damon when she helped the special department, so it didn’t matter to her one bit what he had said.
Seeing how distant she was being, Damon flushed as red as a tomato. He knew that he was in the wrong, so he did not dare to ask for Nora’s forgiveness, either. As such, he could only take a step back in embarrassment.
At this moment, Johnson suddenly looked at Nora. “Ms. Smith, since you can get Q to do what you want, then why don’t you, on behalf of the special department, try asking Q to join us again?”
Nora glanced at him and replied very slowly, “Q cannot be bothered to join the department.”
She turned around and got ready to leave.
However, it was at this point that she suddenly heard Ruth take the initiative to speak. She said, “I’ll try asking Y when I’m free! Y is unsociable and eccentric, though, and all masters of art have hot tempers, so he may not
agree.”
Johnson was overjoyed. “That’s great! You have to help us out on this, Ruth!”
Then, he looked at Nora and sneered again, “Isn’t it just doing the IT department a small favor? I don’t know what some people are so arrogant for.” Nora: “??”
She abruptly turned to Johnson, only to see that he was already singing praises of Ruth. “You’re really a great comrade to have, Ruth. If you can get y onto the team for us, then you would be making a huge contribution to the team! I will definitely promote you!”
Ruth lowered her head and beamed as she said, “Nah, a promotion isn’t necessary. I’m just hoping that the special department will do better and better.”
“You are so self-aware! Unlike some people, who only care about themselves and never take the department into consideration! You are a much better person than her!”
Johnson continued to compliment her.
Nora curled her lips disdainfully and kept quiet. Morris came up to her, lowered his voice, and said, “Don’t hold it against them! I know that you’ve done a lot for the department.”
Nora: “…”
Was Morris afraid that she would get angry, so he had specially come over to comfort her?
There was no need for that, though!
It wasn’t like she was a child.
Nora was about to speak when a hesitant voice traveled over from the side again. “Nora… I know you’re very angry with me, but I’d still like to be a little thick-skinned and ask you something… Can you introduce Q to me? Me? I promise I won’t disturb him. I’ll only ask him the occasional question.”
