Chapter 280

As soon as Sylvia walked into the office, she noticed Bridget was nowhere to be seen. Instead, a group of colleagues had gathered, buzzing with conversation.

When they spotted Sylvia, they waved her over excitedly. "Sylvia, your move at the party was brilliant! You really pulled the rug out from under them."

"Absolutely, it finally opened my eyes to who Freya really is. I can't believe I felt sorry for her and even bought her lunch before."

"And get this, the Rockfield family just released a statement. Because of the Carmen Group's blunder, they're ending their partnership."

Ending the partnership?

Sylvia paused, her mind racing as she pulled out her phone to check for updates. Just then, her phone rang-it was Naomi.

She stepped away from her coworkers to take the call.

"Hey, Mom."

"Sylvia, thank goodness we didn't invest in the Carmen Group like you advised! You won't believe it-all the investors' money is tied up! The Carmen Group is in total disarray! Word is they've lost over a million just from that celebration dinner."

Naomi's voice was practically dripping with schadenfreude.
