Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Mona had always been composed. Despite her young age, she managed to maintain excellent control in every situation. Over the past few months, with Aurora absent, everyone regarded Mona as the de facto leader.

The entire company respected her. She handled matters with impartiality and professionalism, and no one dared to act against the company's interests. Gemma, however, had truly lost her mind.

Driven by jealousy and lingering resentment toward Aurora, she allowed her emotions to impair her judgment and committed a foolish act.

When Gemma stood before the desk, facing Mona, panic gripped her heart. It was the first time she had ever seen Mona so furious, her anger so intense.

Initially, Gemma had acted with a destructive mindset, wanting to drag everyone down with her-Heather, Ian, Aurora, and herself included. If they all fell together, she might find some comfort in the chaos.

But now that the situation had resolved smoothly and the press conference had been a huge success, everyone was talking about it. Sun and the perfume brand had gained instant recognition.

Gemma was the only one left feeling bitter. No one else had been hurt in the process, and the stark contrast gnawed at her. She couldn't accept it.
