Chapter 0141

Violet recalled Estelle’s demeanor from the previous day, and suspected she might soon have to

leave her job.

She acknowledged that her straightforwardness and inability to be diplomatic were to blame.

If only she had played along with Emily’s charade, perhaps none of this would have occurred.

But instead, she had exposed Emily, inadvertently casting herself as the villain and Emily as the

Violet was taken aback. Estelle had been one of the founding members of the company.
