Naomi declined, "No need, I don't drink..."
However, Riley tilted the glass, causing water to splash all over Naomi.
Feigning panic, Riley exclaimed, "Oh dear, I'm sorry, Naomi, it was unintentional... Look, you couldn't hold it steady, could you?"
Naomi's eyes narrowed, glaring at Riley.
Despite Riley's cold laughter, she pretended concern, "Naomi, look, your clothes are all wet... Why not go to the restroom and dry yourself?"
Go to the restroom to dry off?
Naomi squinted, detecting a hint of cunning. Sending her away, were they planning to inspect the contents of her safe?
They were clever, but she wasn't easily bullied!
Naomi pulled at her damp clothes, smiling, "Was it an accident, right?"
"..." Riley was stunned, "Yes."
"Good!" Naomi glanced at the door; the cleaning lady was mopping.
Wearing small heels, she went out, bent down, and picked up the bucket of dirty water from the mop.
Without a word, Naomi headed straight for Riley and poured the water over her.
"Ah..." Riley screamed in surprise, never expecting Naomi to retaliate this way!
Dirty water drenched her from head to toe, emitting an unpleasant odor.
Lucas was startled, frowning, "Naomi! What are you doing?"
"Oops!" Naomi sneered, feeling a sharp pain in her heart. She looked at Riley, "Are you okay? It was an accident. Look, you're all soaked. How about going to the restroom to dry off?"
"Naomi, you're crazy! Ah... Ah, ah!" Riley screamed in shock, thoroughly wet and embarrassed. Naomi had turned the tables on her so quickly!
Suddenly, a loud reprimand echoed from the doorway.
"What's all this noise?"
Everyone turned to see the company's boss.
Mr. Johnson frowned, staring, "Do you know there's an important meeting in the adjacent conference room? Disturbing our distinguished guests! Who will take responsibility for this disturbance?"
Distinguished guests? Who?
The door to the conference room opened.
Aiden, dressed impeccably in a black dress shirt and suit, exuded an air of refinement and handsomeness. Yet, there was a touch of menace between his eyebrows.
Click, click...
Aiden strolled in, his handmade leather shoes untouched by dust. His deep eyes half-closed, sweeping the surroundings before settling on Naomi. The gaze was intensely direct, laden with a profound sense of dominance.
Ah...
Naomi shivered, her pink lips slightly parted.
This man seemed strangely familiar.
Fleeting images flashed in her mind, and her heartbeat suddenly accelerated. He... he seemed to be the man she slept with that night at 'Heaven on Earth'?
"Noisy."
Aiden, spotless and composed, uttered just one word.
Mason understood and asked Mr. Johnson, "Mr. Johnson, who was making noise just now?"
Mr. Johnson glared at his subordinate, "Who was making such a loud noise? Huh?"
Riley's eyes darted, pointing at Naomi, "It was her!"
"Tsk." Aiden chuckled faintly, almost inaudible.
Mason frowned, "Mr. Johnson, do your people understand the rules? Why are they so quick to interject?"
Implied in his words, not everyone had the privilege to answer Aiden's questions. Riley, as a minor employee, clearly lacked the qualifications.
Mr. Johnson hastily nodded, "Yes, my people were out of line..."
He immediately turned to Mr. Miller, "What exactly happened?"
After weighing the situation, Mr. Miller unceremoniously pushed Riley forward, "It's her, she was shouting!"
"..." Riley staggered, standing there nervously.
All eyes were now on her, observing her like spectators watching a monkey.
"You!" Aiden raised his chin, pointing at Riley.
The entire room fell silent in the face of his imposing demeanor.
