Including Catalina.
“What’s wrong with you?” Brayan noticed that Catalina was in a bad mood.
Catalina grabbed Brayan’s hand and pulled him into the corner.
“Brayan, I only told you…actually… the new technique that Jennifer mentioned…I came up with it.”
“What?” Brayan exclaimed.
Catalina intentionally “hissed,” “Jennifer came to me for help with her design, so I chatted with her about this new technique I thought of. I didn’t expect her to bring it up at the meeting as if it was her own idea…”
When Brayan saw Catalina’s eyes turning red, he turned around and was about to leave.
“Where did you go, Brayan?”
Catalina grabbed Brayan’s hand.
“I’ll help you get justice,” Brayan said firmly.
“Don’t…please don’t go…” Catalina desperately held onto Brayan, “You know, Jennifer…she’s../quite close to Director Peter, there are rumors in the company about their inappropriate relationship. A colleague even saw Director Peter hugging Jennifer at her desk during lunch today. Even if you go and tell now, no one will believe me. And after you leave, I don’t know how Director Peter will target me…”

Catalina’s voice got quieter as she spoke. At that moment, Jennifer finished her meeting and walked out of the conference room.
She turned around and saw Brayan and Catalina standing in the corner, holding hands.
Brayan was also looking at her, with a look of disdain in his eyes.
Jennifer thought that after Brayan saw her designs, he would either be impressed or at least acknowledge that she could do more than just be a housewife.
However, now it seems she was overthinking it.
Following her stomach, Jennifer silently returned to the office.
Brayan comforted Catalina for a while, then left VelvetRose.
Jamie showed up late, holding the oatmeal and corn pancake that Brayan asked him to buy.
“Mr. LeBlanc, this…”
Jamie handed the takeout to Brayan, and he could tell that Brayan wasn’t in a great mood.
These foods weren’t Brayan’s usual favorites, he knew they were probably for someone else, but he wouldn’t ask who.
Brayan took the takeout and casually tossed it into the nearby trash.
can.
Jamie was shocked, but didn’t say anything.
This takeout was originally bought for Jennifer by Brayan.
During the meeting, Brayan heard Jennifer’s stomach growling and

saw her rubbing her stomach several times.
Brayan, who had a stomach problem, thought Jennifer looked like she had a stomachache from not eating lunch, so he asked Jamie to buy some stomach–soothing oatmeal.
But after listening to Catalina, he felt like he was just wasting his time.
VelvetRose finally developed a new technique and launched Jennifer’s ten designs to the market. The VelvetRose–PG series was a huge success, selling well worldwide. As a high–end luxury brand,
VelvetRose not only continued to establish its position in the high–end jewelry field, but also made a strong debut in the mid–to–high–end gold jewelry market.
However, there were some rumors circulating within the Velvet Rose Group that were not favorable to Jennifer.
The rumor came from Jennifer’s own PG Department, her colleagues all said the new technique was originally thought up by Catalina, and Jennifer stole Catalina’s idea.
Jennifer definitely minds a lot, don’t be fooled by that.
But the rumors had already spread like wildfire, and people were talking about it as if it were true. She couldn’t explain to everyone she met, and even when she did, they didn’t believe her. They just thought. she was digging herself into a deeper hole.
As the saying goes, “prejudice in the heart is like a mountain, no matter how hard you try, you can’t move it.”
Jennifer knew that many colleagues in the company didn’t like her from the beginning.
Anyway, Velvet Rose–PG sold well, she didn’t let Peter down, Jennifer is proud of herself.
Today Jennifer worked overtime again.
Manning Media invested in the big IP modern urban fashion drama “The Unexpected Life” needed to design several sets of original jewelry. They saw the success of VelvetRose–PG and decided to collaborate with VelvetRose, assigning Jennifer to lead this major project.
Jennifer worked overtime until after 8 o’clock in the evening. When she left Velvet Rose, it was already pitch black outside.
Hello!
A car honked at her on the side of the road.
This car was the latest Ferrari sports car, really cool, the classic bright red metallic paint always makes people want to take a second look.
Jennifer couldn’t remember anyone she knew who drove that kind of
car.
Brayan preferred luxury cars with a business feel over sports cars.
Thinking that it wasn’t Brayan, Jennifer cautiously approached the car.
“Jennifer, it’s me.”
The shed roof was open, Jennifer saw Jasper sitting in the car.
Jasper was still the same, wearing comfortable sportswear, looking fresh and cheerful, with a bright smile. He looked like a typical college student who just stepped out of school.
