Chapter 2140
Jaylene felt guilty for a moment but regained confidence shortly after thinking that Stella must have felt the same. "Those are twodifferent things! Of course, I'll find out who leaked ‘Cloud Nine.’ "What I'm asking now is why you let Mrs. Esper try it when youalready knew it couldn't be sold. Don't you think you're responsible for what happened earlier?"
Stella chuckled. "What else could | do? Directly tell Mrs. Esper that she can't try ‘Cloud Nine’ and upset her? Should | just letCaline lose this client because of me? Are you mad because the story didn't unfold as you expected?"
Jaylene got exposed, and her expression turned extremely unpleasant." What are you trying to say? What does the leak have todo with me? You'd better not accuse me without any evidence!”
Stella glanced at her. "Did | say that you have anything to do with the leak?"
Jaylene was taken aback as her expression turned even uglier. "You're so sharp-tongued and unreasonable! | have no idea whyKeegan would ever like someone like you!"
Stella looked at her. "It seems like you don't understand your dear Keegan at all. He likes someone like me who has beauty,talent, and character. Do you think he's someone who won't be attracted by a woman's appearance?novelbin
“Even you like someone with good looks. What makes you think he'd choose to be with someone solely based on character?"
Jaylene not only did not get anything she wanted from Stella but was also humiliated. Her face turned red in anger as she turnedto leave.
However, Stella stopped her. "Ms. Saun, remember to knock when you come to my office next time. There are rules to follow.You can do anything you want with Mrs. Saun because she's your mother, but I'm not.
"If this happens again, you'll have to write a self-reflecting report like Aubrey and recite it during the meeting."
Jaylene was humiliated by Stella right after getting scolded by Darcie. Her expression looked extremely displeased as sheswung the door open and left.
What happened to Jaylene in Stella's office quickly spread through the entire company.
Although Jaylene and Stella joined Caline around the same time, the employees in Caline were very familiar with Jaylenebecause Darcie often brought her to meetings with Caline’s senior executives.
Everyone assumed that Darcie was training her to become Caline's successor, so they were somewhat accommodating andflattering toward her.
None of them had expected the newly appointed Vice President to be so feisty and immediately deflate the aura of this littleprincess just a week after joining the company. During lunchtime, everyone in the company began gossiping about these twopotential heiresses.
"Did you guys see it? Jaylene entered her office looking so fierce, but when she came out, her face was as pale as paper, andher eyes were red. She looked completely defeated. | wondered what Ms. Hall said to her to make her so upset." "She and Juliawere plotting something to set Ms. Hall up. However, they found that not only did Ms. Hall not fall into their trap, but she alsostole Mrs. Saun's client for herself. How could the little princess not be upset?" "I'm very impressed by Ms. Hall. | thought shewas just going to be another princess." "Mrs. Saun is so capable. How did she end up raising such a giant baby?"
There was a sound outside the door, and everyone immediately shut up. When the door was pushed open, a middle-aged manwith a worn-out look came in with a thermos to get water.
One of the employees recognized him as Stella's driver and immediately volunteered to help him with the water.
Larry thanked them and left after refilling his thermos.
Everyone in the pantry felt relieved. Someone said, "Guys, lower your voice. The little princess can make our lives miserable.Have you guys forgotten about Wren?"
Everyone fell silent upon hearing Wren’s name. They were all aware of Wren's financial difficulties back home. The fact thatJaylene could be so harsh on a vulnerable lady like that sent chills down their spines.
Larry went upstairs to Stella's office. After looking around, he knocked on the door.
Soon, Stella's voice came from inside. "Please come in."
