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

victim.

With a sigh, she approached her workspace.

“Vivi,” came Estelle’s voice, lacking its usual vivacity and seeming melancholy.

“Ms. Ruiz.” Violet responded, preparing herself for the worst.

Estelle gently patted her shoulder and advised, “Do well in whatever comes next.”

“I’ve been let go.” Estelle said, her smile tinged with sadness.

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

“Several colleagues, not just me, were let go,” Estelle informed Violet.

The situation baffled Estelle.

Despite her confusion, as a manager, she maintained her composure in front of Violet. She approached Violet with the intention of not leaving any hard feelings behind as she exited her role.
