Fiona’s burns were terrifying.
Also, to amplify the effect of the burns that she was about to show that day, Fiona deliberately took off
the bandage that wrapped them that morning, completely showing off the layer of blisters to the crowd.
The entire meeting room was in silence.
Everyone looked at Fiona’s burns in shock. They were so shocked that no one thought of helping her up.
Luna was also stunned by the scene before her.
After a while, Luna was the first to react. She walked over and helped Fiona up.
“How did you get them?“
Although she loathed Fiona, looking at her burns, Luna could not help but soften her tone.
However, she did not expect that what Fiona said next would place Luna in an unfavorable position.
Fiona bit her lips and carefully covered the burns on her stomach.
“I’m fine, Ms. Luna. Although you were the one that caused this, I don’t blame you. I blame myself for
insisting to send you coffee, and that was why I got burned…“
Fiona smilingly continued, “Although Joshua thinks that it’s serious, I feel that I brought it on myself.
You treat me so well—you definitely didn’t burn me on purpose.“
The entire meeting room was in silence.
Luna furrowed her brows and looked at Fiona in shock.
President Calvin furrowed his brow and asked, “Ms. Blake, you said that these burns…were caused by
Ms. Luna?“
“Yes, I can be the witness.“
At that moment, one of the men in Luna’s team stood up.
“As a member of Luna’s team, I am clear of what’s happening. What Ms. Blake said a moment ago was
all true. Luna had always been keeping Ms. Blake by the side, not letting her partake in any of the
designing processes. She only lets her run errands. Also, the burns on Ms. Blake’s stomach are caused
by Ms. Luna too. Many in our company witnessed it! “
Then, another woman also stood up.
“Yes, Ms. Blake is our president’s girlfriend. Technically, with her status, no one would dare to offend her.
However, not only did Luna bully her at work, but she also burned Ms. Blake. Luna even spilled food all
over Ms. Blake yesterday.
“Mr. Lynch demanded that Luna apologize, but she was determined not to. In the end, it was Ms. Blake
who persuaded Mr. Lynch let it go, and only then did this matter end peacefully.“
The man immediately chimed in, “Yes. Although Ms. Blake only runs simple errands, she’s always a
helpful person. She’s willing to help her colleagues out. She heard that my kid has learning difficulties, so
she immediately got Mr. Lynch to help me solve my problems. Ms. Blake is such a kind person, yet she’s
being treated this way! “
The woman also nodded and said, “Yes. Ms. Blake is kind-hearted and friendly. She also heard that I had
difficulties previously, so she helped me out. She even said that she hoped I ‘d put all my effort into the
competition and not worry about money.“
Luna remained in the same spot as she listened to both of them going on and on. Her head hurt badly a
s if needles were pricking her brain.
All this while, she had been busy working. She worked late every day, hoping to perfect her work.
However, she did not expect that during this period, Fiona had infiltrated and bought over her people.
Luna knew about the problems of the two people that stood up for Fiona.
The man’s child clearly did not have what it took, yet he insisted on enrolling his child in Banyan City’s
best school. After the child was rejected, he complained that society was unfair.
The other woman only earned about 10,000 a month, yet she would spend thousands upon thousands
on luxury handbags, incurring a huge load of debt.
Luna chose not to help them because she felt that they needed to solve these things on their own.
She did not expect that this became the basis for Fiona buying them.
Upon what the two of them said, the other teams started commenting on Luna.
President Calvin also furrowed his brows and looked at Luna.
“Ms. Luna, do you know that we require team effort in this competition? Every member of the team has to
put in an effort in the design.”
Luna gnawed on her lip and nodded. “Yes, I know.”
