558 I'm Y

Justin narrowed his eyes and called Brenda straightaway. He asked, "What exactly is going on? Make it clear."

He obviously wouldn't know that a new employee had joined the special department, so he needed to ask for the specifics.

Brenda told him what had happened.

Justin fell silent. Then, he said, "I see."

Brenda: "?"

She panicked. "What do you mean 'I see'? Ruth is no kind soul! It's obvious that she's a complete bitch, and she keeps making things difficult for Nora in the department both openly and secretly! It's so infuriating! Hurry up and contact Y! Doesn't he listen to you the most? Get him to just blacklist Ruth, lest she uses his name to throw her weight about here!!"

Justin replied, "Yeah okay, I'm hanging up."

Brenda: "??"

As she stared at the disconnected phone, she simply felt so anxious on Justin's behalf.

Nora was already so mad. Why didn't he seem anxious at all? Besides, this was really a tricky situation.
