They reached the top floor, and the door of the elevator opened automatically. However, the employee did not step out of the elevator, and instead cheered Leia on. "You can do it. I won't go in with you, but you can call us if anything happens."
When Leia stepped out of the elevator, the employee left quickly.
Leia huffed in irritation. 'Why do I feel like I'm sacrificing myself?'
When she reached the door of Xavier's office, she heard his angry roar from afar.
"Is your marketing department completely useless? How dare you sign on a novice with such poor skills? What makes them different from this trainee from Korshach? How competitive is this novice? I can easily find a better person. Get lost and reflect on your mistake!"
After that, a middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses was driven out of the office with a stack of documents. The man pitifully squatted down on the floor to pick up the documents, looking unhappy.
"Let me help you." Leia squatted down and helped him pick up the documents.
"Thank you so much." The man glanced at Leia and shook his head. "If you're going to see Mr. Stuart now, I suggest you get work insurance immediately. I don't think you'll survive."
"Is he that horrible?"
"Go away!" Leia pushed him away and snapped, "You could use a gentler way if you wanted to kill me. You know I can't stand pain."
"I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you. I..."
"Does it matter who it was?" Leia suppressed her pain and felt like teaching him a lesson. "You're turning thirty in a few years, so can you behave like a mature adult for once? They're here to work for you; you don't own their lives. Do you have to be so fierce towards them? If the person who came in here was suffering from high blood pressure, they would have died on the spot from this. How would you resolve it then?"
Leia sounded like an angry mother lecturing her son, and Xavier looked away guiltily.
