Chapter 547: 547. It doesn’t matter if I’m scolded a few more times_1

"To deal with such insatiable people, the best method is to be even more shameless than they are, making them helpless against you. Trying to reason with them is like trying to wake someone who is pretending to sleep—it’s totally useless."

"Don’t worry, this matter isn’t that difficult to handle."

She had already thought of her next moves regarding this matter, so she wasn’t worried about the potential impact on the company’s reputation. She was merely curious—who besides James Campbell was targeting her?

Elly Campbell couldn’t help but wonder internally, was she really so unpopular that everyone wanted to deal with her?

"Miss Campbell."

Just as she was opening the door to get into the car, Joseph Wood hurriedly caught up to her from behind.

His tone was noticeably softer than before.

Elly Campbell hooked her lip and glanced sideways at Greenhill Ainley, laughing, "See? Scare these young fellas a bit and they fall in line right away."

Greenhill Ainley, hearing the pride hidden in Elly Campbell’s words, couldn’t help but laugh as well, "Indeed."

"Let’s get in the car."

Elly Campbell had no intention of staying for Joseph Wood, opened the door, and sat down.

"Miss Campbell, please wait a moment."

Seeing that Elly Campbell had no intention of stopping to discuss the matter, Joseph Wood grew even more anxious.

He rushed over and clung to the door of Elly Campbell’s car, pleading urgently,

"Miss Campbell, I didn’t come here asking for money. I just want to tell you that we can settle this according to the regular workers’ compensation process. Please, have mercy and don’t..."

Joseph Wood hadn’t finished speaking when Elly Campbell interrupted him with a sneer laced with scorn.

"You think that at this point, our company would still be responsible for your father’s workplace injury? Anyway, the company is already being denounced as on the brink of collapse, a few more insults won’t matter to me, it’s not like I’ll lose any flesh off my back."

Elly Campbell, looking like she didn’t want to continue the conversation with Joseph Wood, said to Greenhill Ainley, "Let’s go, Mr. Ainley."

"Miss Campbell, please hear me out."

Joseph Wood was desperate, not expecting this woman to be so difficult to talk to, not even leaving room for negotiation.

It looked like she was resolute in charging him with the altercation.

This wasn’t acceptable!

He clung tenaciously to the car door, not letting go, and said to Elly Campbell, "Miss Campbell, you have to believe me, I really didn’t make that post online. But I know who did. Please give me a chance."

A harsh glint flashed briefly in Elly Campbell’s downcast eyes. She glanced at Joseph Wood and said, "Talk."

"Then, can you spare me this time?

"That depends on whether what you’re about to tell me is of any practical use to me."

Joseph Wood’s complexion grew even paler, he tightened his lips and said,

"Well... I actually don’t know who that person is. The night my dad got injured, I received a call. It was that person, who told me that if I made people cause a ruckus outside your company, I could get more compensation. I... I owed some money from student loans and couldn’t pay back recently, so... I did as that person said."

As he spoke, Joseph Wood glanced uneasily at Elly Campbell’s cold face and continued with his lips bitten,

"I asked him who he was at that time, but he used a voice changer. I couldn’t tell if he was a man or a woman. He only told me that he didn’t like the way you conduct yourself and wanted to teach you a lesson."

"Everything that followed, I did according to what he told me, including... including the photo of Mr. Ainley hitting me, that was also taken by someone that person found."

Elly Campbell listened and didn’t respond, remaining silent which made Joseph Wood even more uneasy.

"Miss Campbell, please believe me, I really didn’t post that thread, he said all I needed to do was gather workers to stand guard at the hospital and outside your company," he insisted.
