Chapter 60

Harmony Supermarket

After Josie ate a simple lunch, she regained a little bit of strength.

She found Harmony Supermarket by referring to a map, While there, she looked up and saw that it was a big integrated supermarket

"Hello, I'd like to see the manager of the Procurement Department," Josie asked politely as she arrived at the Customer Service Department.

"Are you here to see Mr. Smith? the customer service stall questioned in surprise.

Tm a salesperson from Eastern Corporation."

The staff frowned and asked in astonishment, "Are you sure your company asked you to come?"

The staff at Harmony Supermarket knew Mr. Smith from the Procurement Department was a pervert. Furthermore, several companies they often worked with had always sent male employees. The people at Eastern Corporation were aware. An incident happened last month, and it was the incident where a salesperson contacted the police.

The staff wondered. "Why did they send a female employee? And such a pretty one too."

"Mr. Smith... is not here today." The customer service staff was observant. At a glance, they knew Josie was a newcomer who had no idea about the happenings in the Procurement Department.

"Thank you." Josie felt slightly disappointed. It seemed Josie was really not meant to work in such an industry after all.

The door of the Procurement Department opened, and a middle-aged man asked with a frown, "Who said I wasn't here?"

The customer service staff clenched their hands nervously as the man heard what they said earlier.

"Are you Mr. Smith?" Josie asked politely.

The middle-aged man looked at Josie from top to bottom. He then narrowed his eyes and smiled. "Yes, I'm the manager of the Procurement Department."

"Wonderful. I'm the salesperson from Eastern Corporation. Our company has launched a new product at this time. Could you..." Josie stopped mid-sentence and glanced at her phone. After it was dropped, the phone was running low on battery. Immediately, Josie turned her phone off.

Not wanting to lose the current opportunity, Josie handed her phone to the customer service staff. "Could you please charge

this for me?"

The customer service staff took Josie's phone nervously. They wanted to say something but stopped themselves from doing

Then, Josie candidly introduced the products to Caleb. Basically, Josie had high memory retention, and she had already familiarized herself with the product information. Caleb's eyes lit up. He then asked, "Eastern Corporation, was it?"

"It was only last month that one ignorant employee from Eastern Corporation contacted the police. Now they've hired at new employee to appease me," Caleb mused. Caleb was not only the manager of the Procurement Department at Harmony Supermarket but also the younger brother of the supermarket's owner. That was why no one dared to mess with Caleb.

Chapter 60

"Come, come. Step into the office. We'll have a nice chat," said the greasy-faced manager as he pulled Josie into his office.

Josie subconsciously retracted her wrist and politely distanced herself from Caleb. "So, have you understood our products from Eastern Corporation?" Oh, the new products? I'll need some time to learn more about them." Caleb's gaze was always on Josie, which gave off a sense of him being obscene. On the other hand, Josie remained vigilant as she stood by the door.

"Don't just stand there. Come have a glass of water. Caleb poured Josie a glass of water and added something when he had his back turned toward Josie. Josie smiled. “No, thank you, Mr. Smith. I'm not thirsty."

"Well, you're already here. Are you not even going to drink some water? Are you trying to hurt my feelings? I'm not even offering you alcohol" Caleb strongly suggested Josie to drink, and he even sneakily locked the door.

Meanwhile, the customer service staff panicked outside when they saw Caleb lock the door.

Then, Josie's phone rang as someone was trying to contact her.

After hesitating for a long time, the customer service staff answered Josie's phone. "Hello? Are you this lady's friend? We're at Harmony Supermarket. Please hurry over and help her... Our manager is not a good person. We're located on East Street. Harmony Supermarket."

"What happened?" The voice on the other end sounded imposing.

"Stop asking questions and get over here, the staff urged.

Bang! Panicked sounds of the door opening began coming from the office, accompanied by Josie's cries for help.

"Open the door! Let go of me! Help....

Inside Caleb's office.

Josie stepped back in a panic. She did not drink the glass of water, but the middle-aged man had already shown his true colors.

Caleb forced Josie to drink the glass of water and said he would agree to business negotiations as long as Josie showed obedience.

She was already physically weak prior to that time. In her struggle, Josie bumped her head on the desk, which caused her vision to darken

"You're that weak? It saves me time. The man had a terrifying smile as he lifted Josie from the ground.

Josie wanted to resist, but blood had blurred her line of sight. Regardless of how loudly she shouted, the people outside could not seem to hear her cries for help.

Obviously, the customer service staff was accustomed to such things.

"What you're doing now is against the law... Are you not worried about me calling the police? Josie asked in a horse voice.

"Calling the police? Go back and ask your manager at Eastern Corporation about what happened to the employee who called the police last month. Caleb said as he laughed gleefully

Josie clenched her fists slowly as she was filled with anger. It seemed the people at Eastern Corporation were aware of the fact that Caleb was an indecent man.

Josie took a deep breath as tears streamed down from her eyes.

Chapter 60

It was a wonder since she had no enemies at Eastern Corporation.

Td advise you not to touch me. Josie's clothes were ripped open. She looked at the man who caused her to feel frightened and nauseated in fear.

Josie felt like she was on the verge of having a breakdown.

Once she was triggered, she could behave crazyly.

"Why? What else are you going to do to me?" Caleb sneered. "The owner of this supermarket is my older brother. What can you ever do to me? Behave yourself, and I would reward you." "Let go of me!"

Josic cried as she struggled. In a panic, she grabbed a pair of scissors on the desk and frantically stabbed the man.

"Damn you! How dare you attack mel Caleb yelled.

Smack! Josie was slapped hard on the face.

Josie's vision was already hazy. After she was slapped, she immediately fell onto the ground without any strength left.

Her nose bled, and she felt her throat overpowered by the scent of blood.

Feeling her waist hurt as if close to fracturing, Josie slowly curled up her body.

"Who's going to come and rescue me?" Josie thought.

Without her phone, in desperation, Josie looked at the office door that was almost within reach.

Who was going to rescue Josie?

Her consciousness was slowly slipping. At that moment, she felt desperate.

There was no one there who could rescue her.

It was similar to when Henry left Josie alone at home when she bled out severely.

"Josie, I can agree to get married to you, but we need to clarify that I don't want too many people to know about this. Do you understand what I mean! I can register for marriage so that Grandpa can have peace of mind. As long as you're obedient, you'll always be Henry Gibson's wife. Josie, please stop doing meaningless things. I can give you everything you want. Just don't expect unrealistic fantasies such as love."

Before Josie passed out, what echoed in her mind was Henry's warning he gave on the day they got married.

In fact, Henry had told Josie that he did not love her.

He would never give Josie that love in all eternity.

Josie was clearly sober, yet she had gotten into trouble without a second thought,

Who exactly was the person at Eastern Corporation that put Josie on the spot that day?

That person knew the man with the surname "Smith" was a pervert and still wanted Josie to continue meeting the

e man.

Henry Gibson... He had to be the one who forced Josie into an impasse.

Josie pondered, "Would Henry be pleased if I were dead? If that's the case, I- If I died, I'll be free from all of this, right?"

If Josie died, Henry would be able to sleep soundly and spend the rest of his days with the woman he loved.
