Chapter 978_When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 978 Utterly Unfair

 Cecilia looked at Jessica, who appeared pitiful, with nothing but indifference in her eyes.

 “Jessica, is there something wrong with my mind, or is it yours? You expect me to assist you in seducing my own husband?”

 Choked with emotion, Jessica confessed, “But I genuinely love him.”

 Cecilia chuckled. “The way you’re talking, it’s as if I don’t care for Nathaniel? Besides, even if you do like him, it doesn’t mean he reciprocates. Forcing a man’s feelings, that’s not cool, is it?”

 Jessica pinched her palm.N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.

 “I…”

 Cecilia was too busy to deal with her at the moment. “I have work to do now,” she said. “If you’ve got nothing else, don’t stand here and get in my way.”

 Upon realizing that Cecilia couldn’t possibly help her, Jessica’s expression soured.

 “You’re so out of touch with people’s feelings. I hope you get kicked out of thepany soon, and don’t Come begging to me when it happens.”

 After she finished speaking, she stormed out, mming the door behind her.

 Cecilia felt that Jessica was not just annoying, but also insane.

 Jessica was absolutely insane.

 Cecilia took a deep breath, not wanting to let Jessica affect her mood.

 After Jessica left, she found Miranda and informed her, “Cecilia is now at the office, just sitting there and not doing anything.”

 “Are you sure?” Miranda couldn’t believe it.

 “I’m certain of it. I nced at her workspace and it was all filled with Orion Corporation’s meeting materials, nothing about the Imminence Corporation.” A cold glint flickered in Jessica’s eyes. “I think she was just stirring up trouble on purpose, wanting to draw everyone’s attention to her. She didn’t really have any substance.”

 Upon hearing all this, Miranda didn’t say much.

 “Okay, you just keep a close eye on her.”

 Inside thepany, the news of Miranda and Cecilia’s bet had also reached the ears of Elena and the others at Rainsworth Manor.

 Elena was taken aback. “Are you saying that Cecilia and Miranda had a bet that the winner would be the manager of the sales department?”

 The assistant nodded. “Yes, that’s the message we received from thepany’s headquarters.”

 “What bet did they make?” Elena asked.

 “The bet was on whether Cecilia could snatch the project from Imminence Corporation,” the assistant replied.

 Imminence Corporation was a name that Elena had heard of long ago. Ever since thepany hard set foot in Tud, it had been causing trouble for Orion Corporation, which had been a constant source of distress for her.

 “Young people these days really have no sense of danger.” Elena quickly regained herposure.

 She felt that Cecilia had barely started working at Orion Corporation before she was trying to bite off more than she could chew. It was as difficult as scaling the heavens.

 It wasn’t a big deal if Cecilia lost, but it was uneptable if it cost Elena her dignity!

 “Go ahead,” Elena instructed her assistant to leave first.

 “Okay.”

 After the assistant left, Elena pondered over how to handle this matter.

 Since Cecilia had made such a bold promise, Elena, as the mother–inw, couldn’t afford to lose face.

 “I always thought Cecilia was the type to live a quiet life, content with writing music every day. I never realized, she harbored ambitions of bing a sales department manager,” Cassandra remarked, a hint of jealousycing her words.

 Despite both of them being the daughter–inw of Rainsworth Group, Cassandra had to stay at home every day to take care of her pregnancy, but Cecilia was even arranged to work at thepany. It seemed utterly unfair.

 Elena detected the resentment in her words and voiced out, “You’re unaware of Imminence Corporation. It’s impossible for Cecilia to seize the project they’re handling.”

 After she finished speaking, she added another sentence.

 “You’re pregnant, and your condition is only starting to stabilize. It’s best to rest and take care of the baby at home. If in the future you want to help Nichs at thepany, that’s also an option.”

 “Okay” Only then did Cassandra feel relieved.

 After soothing Cassandra, Elena stepped out to call Cecilia.

 Intrigued, Cassandra followed quietly, eager to hear what she would say to Cecilia.
