After Jennifer sent this WhatsApp, she waited a long time before Brayan replied.
The marriage is definitely over, you don’t need to be in such a hurry. Who pushed you, Peter, Ronan, or Jasper?
Jennifer frowned at the long list of names behind.
Jennifer: Don’t act like I’m the one who cheated, aren’t you the one who’s anxious to give Catalina a status?
the LeBlanc Group, in the break room.
Brayan drank cup after cup of coffee, but he still didn’t finish chatting on WhatsApp.
What did Catalina tell you?
Yes.
Jennifer replied quickly, and Brayan’s charming smile lightly curved his lips.
Next time you’re jealous, just say it straight. No need to beat around the bush. And I’m in a meeting, don’t waste my time.
When Jennifer received a reply like that from Brayan, she was so mad she almost blocked him.
She scolded Brayan, but he didn’t reply.
In the meeting room, everyone had been waiting for twenty minutes.

Recomputing the incorrect data didn’t take that long.
Brayan finally came back and put his phone back on the table.
Jamie quietly watched Brayan next to him and felt like Brayan’s mood had improved.
Jennifer didn’t sleep well last night, woke up with two big dark circles under her eyes.
In order to not look too tired, she spent two hours doing her makeup seriously and chose a stylish yet appropriate outfit.
Today, she had a very important business dinner with someone, so she had to dress up nicely.
Jennifer arrived at the private room in the restaurant.
There were already a lot of people sitting inside, all dressed to the nines in suits. Only Lucille, a woman, and only Lucille was Jennifer’s acquaintance.
This business deal was actually introduced to Jennifer by Lucille, and it was said to be a big government project.
Jennifer didn’t dare to slack off, whether it was her outfit, makeup, or behavior, everything was very formal and proper.
Jennifer came, Lucille thought everyone was here, but Gavin Pineda said, “Wait a bit, he invited another group of people.”
“Who is it? Why don’t I know?”
As soon as Lucille finished speaking, Jennifer saw the door of the compartment being pushed open.
Brayan and Catalina appeared in Jennifer’s sight.

When they saw Jennifer, Brayan and Catalina were also stunned.
They both didn’t know that they were both going to the dinner today.
“What does Mr. Pineda mean by this!”
Lucille looked displeased, “I didn’t know there was competition for the person I introduced.”
Although Gavin is the director, he didn’t dare to offend Lucille. He immediately smiled and said, “There’s nothing I can do, it’s the higher- ups‘ decision…Ms. Griffin and Ms. Colbert are our top emerging designers at Nexford. The leadership wants them to collaborate on this project, playing to their strengths and avoiding weaknesses!”
Jennifer and Catalina looked at each other at the same time.
At first glance, Gavin’s boss had no idea about their relationship, otherwise she would never have let them work together.
Although Gavin tried to comfort her, Lucille still had a sour face and looked like she was sticking up for Jennifer.
Because Lucille knew Jennifer was B. Y., Catalina’s skills couldn’t compare to Jennifer’s.
They were going to hold the Brilliant Star–New Trade Road International Cultural Exchange Conference in November, with 60 countries visiting.
The cultural department wanted Jennifer and Catalina to collaborate to create 60 pieces of jewelry gifts that fit the cultural characteristics of Trousia to give to foreign guests.
Jennifer and Catalina both didn’t want to miss out on this great
opportunity to showcase their studio’s strength, so they both agreed to collaborate with each other.

“Okay, okay, let’s just cooperate… So, what’s Mr. LeBlanc here for? Are you also starting to learn jewelry design?”
Lucille mocked Brayan.
She wasn’t sure about the exact relationship between Jennifer, Brayan, and Catalina, but with a woman’s intuition, she could guess.
So she didn’t have a good impression of Brayan or Catalina.
“Mr. LeBlanc is like a guardian angel for Ms. Colbert! Wherever Ms. Colbert is, Mr. LeBlanc is always there,” Gavin said with a smile.
Brayan slightly smirked, saying nothing, as if agreeing.
But his gaze subtly shifted to Jennifer without a word.
Jennifer didn’t look at him, nor did she look at Catalina.
Jennifer didn’t look at anyone, just kept her head down and ate as if she hadn’t heard a word Gavin said.
Or heard it but didn’t really care.
Brayan’s eyebrows furrowed unconsciously.
“You made them work together, but there must be a main and a secondary, right? Where do you usually work? Isn’t it a waste of time to go back and forth?”
Jennifer knew from Lucille’s strong attitude that she hadn’t given up yet and still wanted her to take on this government project independently.
