The Manipulated Villainess

"Did the Ice Queen really fired our Director?"

"I can't believe this! Our Director was so loyal to her. How can she discard him just because of a single mistake?!"

"She truly has no heart! For her, loyalty means nothing."

The gossips that were going around for the whole morning immediately stopped when Nicole Yang entered the Yang Group building.

Some of the workers who were in the middle of badmouthing the Ice Queen instantly hang their heads low at the sight of her! They almost shivered due to fear!

They were done! The Ice Queen heard everything they said!

Nicole Yang clenched her fingers as she walked past the workers as if nothing happened. She didn't spare them even a single glance! But she didn't fail to notice Director Colin Park who was standing in a distance with his gaze fixed on her.

She didn't let anyone or anything troubled her. She instead calmly get on the elevator that immediately leads to her office on the top floor.

The moment Nicole Yang entered her office, her legs became weak as if all the energy was sucked out. She approached her chair with wobbly legs and sat at once.

Endless gossips, criticisms and mocking of her own employees! She had heard enough! She was only a human too.

While she blankly stared at the floor, she received a call from the devil again! What did she want this time?!

"Mother." She reluctantly greeted the woman.

"I heard that the gossips about Director Lee being fired trouble you a lot. Fire all those who badmouth you in the back." Garcia Han told her from the other line.

Nicole Yang eyes grew wide in shock! She didn't expect such an order at all.

"Mother, gossips are only for a while. Please don't take it too seriously." She calmly pleaded.

"I won't care if you didn't hear them say. But now that you clearly heard them, you cannot simply let them go. You must show them what you're capable of. Only then they would fear you." Garcia Han said in an unpleasant voice.

Nicole Yang understands that it would bring her no good if she argued with her again. "I understand." She responded and the step-mother ended the call.

Did she really need to fire her employees just because of those gossips? Besides, from the employee's point of view, there was no wrong in such gossips! They didn't know the whole story and they only say what they saw.

Going against the devil again for this matter? Nicole Yang will be good as dead. No...much more worst than death!

After much thought, she ordered her secretary to tell Director Colin Park to come to her office.

Director Park entered her office in no time but he was greeted by the sour face of the Ice Queen.

"Have a seat." Nicole Yang bluntly said to the Director who was in his 50s.

"What's the matter, Chairwoman?" Director Park asked as he takes a seat in one of the sofas.

"Was it you? You reported to my step-mother about me witnessing the gossips." Nicole Yang sat on the single sofa and cross her legs. Her sharp eyes never leave the Director this whole time.

This Director Park was the righthand man of Garcia Han in Yang Group. He was also the one who always report about the company matters to the devil. He was the only one from the company who knows about the devil's influence in Nicole Yang's action.

Above all, this man was as cunning as a fox! He will do anything for power and money.

"Why are you asking me that? It's obvious that I was the one who made the report." Director Colin Park answered without much thought.

Nicole Yang stared at the man with fierce eyes. Suddenly, a slight smile appeared on her face. "Why? Why would you bother about such a trivial matter? Thanks to you, I was ordered to fire the employees."

"Firing your employees was never a big deal to you. What has gotten into you, Chairwoman?" Director Park's face was plastered with a smile the whole time.

A disgusting smile. That's what Nicole Yang called.

"I will fire them, but you should help them get another job to support themselves."

Director Park laughed at her words. "Why would I do that?" He asked her with a sarcastic tone.

"Of course, you will need a reason. But I can only assure you one thing. If you don't do as I said, then I will make my step-mother lose her trust in you." Nicole Yang opined with a playful smile.

Director Park was feeling intimidated by her confident behaviour but he tried to remain as calm as possible. "You will never be able to do that. Do you think our trust in each other is that thin? It already lasts for more than a decade."

"Is that so? I bet you're so proud of your trust for each other. But at that time a year ago, where was her trust in you?" Nicole Yang asked as she takes a sip of tea brought in by her secretary. She calmly sat as if nothing happened. After two years, she had become a master in such a thing!

A year ago, Garcia Han became aware of how Nicole Yang was disrespected by her right-hand man, Director Colin Park. The devil became so angry and the Director suffered her rage for a long time. Even though he constantly pleaded innocence, the devil didn't listen to him at all!

Garcia Han believes that she should be the only one who has control over her step-daughter! Even though she was the one who destroyed Nicole's life, she never forgives anyone if they ever mistreated Nicole Yang. She believes that she was the only one who could torment her! It's some sort of crazy obsession.

Cold sweat was forming in the side of Director Park's head when he recalled the devil's rage! He glanced at Nicole Yang.

"Remember now? What will she do to you if I said that you mistreated me again?" Nicole Yang let out a light chuckle.

"Why would she believe you?" The Director asked, mustering all his courage. He was barely resisting the urge to gave in to her offer.

"Because you have a past record of mistreating me while I stay obedient to her this whole time. Now think about it. Who do you think she would believe? YOU or ME?" She firmly asked the man.

"That's not the only thing." She handed him a file. "That is the record of how much you have embezzled from her while following her orders."

Director Park eyes grew wide as he scanned through the file handed to him. Since when did the Chairwoman keep an eye on him?!

He nervously gulped and shifted his gaze to Nicole Yang who stared at him with a mocking smile on her face!

This woman! She acts dumb and fragile all the time. But who would have thought that she was this smart and calculative?! Was this her true colour to begin with?
