Maria's Point of View:
" Arrest her! " Zoe screamed. I flinched. The words pierced me. " No. No. No. I didn't do anything. "She asked me to get the coffee for Mister Vance," I pleaded, trying to defend myself.
Zoe mocked. " Oh shut up. I have worked for the company for years. You think they'll believe you and think I'm lying? Such a thing has never happened here before, but since you came, it has been from one drama to another. Yes, I told you to get coffee, but I made it specifically clear to you, Mister Vance doesn't take black-brewed coffee, only for you to use an espresso cup in disguise. How conniving of you! " She spat and I shook my head tearfully.
" I didn't! It must have been a mistake. I only delivered the coffee. I had nothing to do with it. " You have to believe me. " I turned to look at Esther. " Esther, you have got to believe me. " I begged.
