A: Hi, John. I'm sorry to hear that you didn't get the promotion you wanted.

B: Thanks, Sarah. But actually, it wasn't my fault. It was all a big misunderstanding.

A: Really? What happened?

B: Well, the manager thought I missed some deadlines and made some mistakes on the project, but it was actually my colleague who did that. I just took the blame for it.

A: Oh no, that's terrible! Have you talked to your manager about this?

B: Yes, I did. And he apologized for jumping to conclusions and not checking with me first. He also promised to make things right.

A: That's good to hear. I'm glad everything got cleared up. Sorry for assuming it was your fault in the first place.

B: No worries, Sarah. Thank you for being there for me.
