Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 421 A Little Too Good at Doing Business

Yelena's eyes shone when she saw the man walking over. "Hank? What are you doing here?"

Hank couldn't help but laugh when she saw the look of surprise and slight puzzlement on her face. "I dropped by to visit you while you're working. By the way, when can you go back to work?"

Her face immediately fell when she heard those words.

With a palm pressed against her forehead, Yelena gave Jasmine an instigative side-eye and muttered, "I would like to go back earlier, but you need to know that there is a little b*tch here who keeps showing off and delaying the shooting just because she is the investor's fiancée. Goodness! I'm about to get a headache at this rate."

She didn't mention whom she was talking about, but everyone knew she was referring to Jasmine.

Jasmine, especially, had a dark expression when she heard those sarcastic remarks secretly made about herself. "Yelena, I won't hold back anymore if you keep on with your nonsense!"

Yelena glared at her and snorted. "Oh? Why did you stop pretending to be a goody two shoes? Weren't you weakly calling Callum to help you just a second ago?"

Hank immediately understood what was happening and he chuckled. "So, this is Mr. Winthrop's fiancée. Now that I'm meeting you for the first time, you seem somewhat… impertinent."

This was not Jasmine's first time hearing that word, but it definitely was the first time she heard someone use it to describe her.

Immediately, she pointed at Hank's nose and spat, "I don't know who the hell you are, but I won't let you off the hook for standing on Yelena's side and blatantly spouting nonsense!"

Hank, who was a tall man with a cold aura, remained indifferent even when she pointed at him. He only quietly watched her make a fool of herself.

Callum was the one who came to them and stopped the argument at last. "Enough, Jasmine. Stop messing around."

He basically put an end to the situation with those words alone.

Jasmine couldn't help but feel wronged. She couldn't put a name to what she was feeling. She was the one who was pushed to the ground at the beginning but now, she had turned into the person who was 'messing around'!
