Nancy happened to be going back to the office to get something, going back to the office to get something, soon as she reached the door, she saw Jennifer and Peter standing together.
From her perspective, it was like “Peter was hugging Jennifer from behind.”
As a result, Jennifer didn’t eat a single bite until the end of the lunch break, and she was so hungry that her stomach started to ache.
When she went to make coffee, she saw a group of people gathered together not knowing what was going on, until a tall figure walked out of the crowd.
Brayan went to VelvetRose today to discuss project collaboration. He knew Jennifer is now an employee of VelvetRose, so he wasn’t surprised when he ran into her.
Jennifer didn’t say hi to Brayan, and Brayan didn’t acknowledge her either.
Two people passed by each other, in the eyes of others they were strangers.
Jennifer saw Brayan holding a bunch of pink roses in his hands, no need to think twice, she knew they were for Catalina.
The coffee in her hand had already gone cold, Jennifer took a sip, it tasted more bitter than usual.
When she got back to the office, she heard Nancy and Maggie chattering as soon as she walked to the door.

“Catalina, your boyfriend was actually the president of the LeBlanc Group?”
“You’re hiding this too well!”
Catalina didn’t admit anything, she just shyly smiled while holding the big bunch of pink roses that Brayan gave her.
Jennifer didn’t want to go into the office, so she turned around and pretended to go to the meeting room to get some documents, but ended up getting trapped in there by someone.
Brayan in front of her was like a tall wall, leaving Jennifer with no
way out.
Jennifer didn’t understand what Brayan wanted to do.
She guessed Brayan came to VelvetRose today to talk business, or maybe to bring that bouquet of pink roses to Catalina, and talk business on the side.
But no matter what, he didn’t need to show up in front of her.
After the last hotel incident, Jennifer is a bit hesitant about being alone with Brayan in a closed space.
I was actually both scared and nervous.
Her two hands were behind her back, her nails digging into her palms, and her gaze didn’t meet Brayan’s.
The air in the meeting room was unexpectedly a bit cold, Jennifer didn’t know if it was because the central air conditioning was on too high, or if it was because of Brayan.
Brayan just stood there blocking the door in silence, leaving Jennifer puzzled and unsure.

“I’ve heard all about it…”
Finally, Brayan spoke.
Jennifer looked up, with a puzzled expression on her face.
“What have you heard?”
“You are the only designer in your department who hasn’t had a design. approved….Jennifer, don’t you feel embarrassed at all?”
Jennifer thought Brayan had something to say, but it turned out he was referring to this matter.
“Designers will always encounter situations where their designs are not recognized. If you can’t handle this, it’s better to change your
career.
Brayan was amused by Jennifer’s lecture, “What kind of self–comfort is this? The fact is you’re just not cut out for design. Instead of forcing yourself, it’s better to admit you don’t have the talent…”
Jennifer felt really annoyed after hearing these words.
She didn’t understand why Brayan had nothing better to do than to come here and criticize her design.
The atmosphere between the two people was tense.
Suddenly, Brayan grabbed Jennifer’s arm.
“Jennifer, go home!”
Jennifer was taken aback.
“If you had a little bit of basic shame, you would have quit your job. and gone home obediently.”

Jennifer forcefully shook off Brayan’s hand.
Brayan’s face fell.
“When are you going to stop causing trouble? You know I don’t have. that much patience.”
Jennifer knew, of course.
Because Brayan gave all his patience to Catalina.
“I won’t go back to being a housewife.”
“You can only do it well if you’re a housewife.”
Jennifer opened her mouth, but for a moment she was speechless.
At that moment, the meeting room was pushed open by someone.
“What are you two doing here?”
Peter walked in.
Brayan gave Peter a cold look and said, “Does Director Peter have a habit of eavesdropping on other people’s conversations?”
Peter shrugged and smiled, “Mr. LeBlanc, this is my company.”
“So I need your permission to talk to my wife? Is she under a labor contract or a slave contract?”
Peter awkwardly scratched his head, but he didn’t mince words.
“This is the company. Although she didn’t sign a contract to sell herself, she still needs to follow the company’s rules and corporate culture. If Mr. LeBlanc wants to discuss personal matters with her, please go home and talk. Or is it because she’s divorcing you, so even if you go home, you won’t see her?”
