Those words left Yasmine speechless.

In the meeting with Minerva the other day, she had indeed been able to pinpoint their flaws accurately.

"That doesn't mean anything! We've been working in this industry for so many years. She could've had someone look us up beforehand! After all, she has the money to do such a thing, doesn't she?"

"You're not wrong... I suppose anything's possible when one has money. For instance, you clearly don't like her, yet you still stayed for the money, right?" Jordan taunted Yasmine. He was mocking her to her face.

He had purposely put her on the spot.

Kelly let out a condescending laugh at that as Jessica followed suit.

Gabriella, who was now standing beside Yasmine, snorted with disdain as she huffed, "I knew there must've been something keeping you here despite all your complaining..." "I..." Yasmine sputtered, feeling too exasperated to speak properly.

Everyone had already glossed over her not a moment later, leaving her to her rage. She clenched her fists tightly, biting her lower lip to suppress her fury.

She would show that d*mn b*tch who was the boss!

So what if Minerva had a child with Quill? She didn't hold any official title! She would eventually be abandoned by Quill soon enough.

That Quill...

Yasmine's eyes gleamed viciously as she thought.

Meanwhile, in the conference room...

Before Minerva went in, she took Beanie to Vera and asked her to take good care of him so he didn't run off somewhere else.

However, Vera had in turn attempted to lock Beanie in the office by himself.

"Your mommy's hand is injured so I have to go help her, okay? Would you be okay staying here alone for a short while?"
