    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“So, Ms. Miranda, Charlotte said innocently, “should we agree to terminate those contracts? That would be a massive loss, don’t you think? Maybe we should hand the projects back to Ms. Smith instead.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Miranda’s face went red with frustration, feeling the mounting embarrassment.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Watching from her seat, Cecilia fought back a smirk, clearly amused by the unfolding drama.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Meanwhile, Charlotte continued, undeterred. “Honestly, we don’t even know if the clients are still interested at this point?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Get out! Now!” Miranda’s voice reached a fever pitch, her temper ring as she all but screamed for Charlotte to leave.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The rest of the room watched the spectacle with amused expressions, taking in the show. But before Charlotte could slip out, Elena, who had remained silent up until now, spoke up. “Wait a minute,” Elena called out, her tone firm but calm. “You don’t need to leave just yet.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Charlotte stopped in her tracks and, with a s</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">ly smile, moved to close the conference room door as she made herselffortable. If anyone was leaving, it wasn’t going to be her. Not until things were resolved.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Miranda,” Elena began, “What’s this I hear about you taking over Ceci’s projects? Care to exin?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elena couldn’t have been more relieved that she had attended the meeting today. Had she not been there, she might have remained blissfully unaware of the underhanded scheming taking ce right under her nose.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Before Miranda could gather her thoughts, the managers from other departments couldn’t hold back any longer. They quickly jumped in, airing their grievances.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Mdm. Elena, our department had a promising project, but Ms. Miranda took it from us,” one of them used.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Too ashamed to admit that Adrian had handed the projects to Miranda, they resorted to iming they were taken by force.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elena was no fool, and she saw through their attempts to save face. “Since when did Orion Corporation be the Leighton family’s yground?” she asked, her eyes narrowing in disbelief.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">This kind of ruthlesspetition was exactly what Orion Corporation despised. It led to immeasurable losses, both financial and reputational.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Miranda, sensing the tension, cast a desperate nce at Adrian, silently begging for his support. But Adrian wasn’t going to stick his neck out for her. Instead, he feigned disapproval.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Miranda, what you’ve done ispletely inappropriate,” Adrian said, his voice stern but insincere. “Even though you’re a daughter–inw of the Rainsworth family, here at Orion Corporation, we’re all employees. You can’t resort to such disgraceful tactics.”</font></font>


    Miranda couldn’t believe her ears. Her own husband was throwing her under the bus. She opened her mouth to protest, but Adrian cut her off. “ording topany policy, engaging in hicalpetition is grounds for immediate dismissal,” Adrian stated, as if reading from a rulebook.


    Miranda’s eyes widened in shock. “Adrian, are you… firing me?” she asked, her voice shaking with disbelief.


    In a fit of anger, Miranda mmed her hands down on the table and stood up, her face flushed with rage. The entire conference room felt like a stage for just the two of them now.


    Elena, not expecting things to escte, turned to Nichs. “Is this how you run yourpany, Nichs?” she asked, her voice dripping with sarcasm.


    Nichs, unphased, tapped his fingers lightly on the table. “This is a workce, not your living room. If you want to argue,


    do it at home.”


    Only then did Miranda’s mouth snapped shut. Adrian gave her a subtle, knowing look, silently urging her to keep quiet. They could hash this outter in private.


    Reluctantly, Miranda sat back down, but the tension in the room was palpable.

    had never imagined that she would lose to Cecilia, but the tables had turned. It wasn’t Cecilia who left thepany in disgrace–it was her.


    As she gathered her things to leave, she cast a furious nce at Cecilia.


    “Trying to sabotage me, are you?” Mirandamented snidely.


    Cecilia met her gaze coolly, unbothered by the bitter outburst. “If you hadn’t been so greedy, none of this would’ve happened.”


    “You think you’ve won, don’t you?” Miranda hissed. “This isn’t over. Don’t think you’re invincible just because Elena is backing you up. She’ll grow old, she’ll die, and let’s see how you, a mere woman, can handle things with that dim–witted husband of


    yours.


    With one final re, she stormed out, her anger trailing behind her.


    Charlotte sidled up to Cecilia once Miranda was gone. “That woman really has a way with ugly words, doesn’t she?”


    Cecilia let out a lightugh. “It’s all she has left.”
