Chapter 2065
Hearing Jaylene's silence, Darcie raised her voice.
Jaylene pursed her lips and replied, "Got it."
Darcie continued, "Stella likes mangoes and cherries. Have someone send some to her office. Also, inform HR to assign a driver
for her. Look after her well, and your dad will see your efforts."
"Alright," Jaylene replied in disdain.
She tried to bring up the matter regarding Wren with Darcie as Julia's words kept echoing in her ears.
Jaylene could not swallow the humiliation. She wanted to take action and assert authority.
Before she could say anything, Darcie cautioned her against stirring up trouble and quickly hung up.
Jaylene bit her lip and reluctantly put away her phone, heading toward the restroom.
As she approached the slightly ajar restroom door, she overheard voices inside.
Someone said, "Chanel perfume and Armani foundation. I thought she would give us something expensive, with how she talks
down on us. I can't believe she's trying to buy our loyalty but unwilling to spend the money. She's so full of pride. No wonder they
say a doting mother makes a disobedient child. Mrs. Saun is something, but her daughter surely isn't."
"Exactly. They're just makeup products that are worth a few bucks.
Suppose we can use it, great. But if they don't suit US and we resell them online, people will think it's counterfeit goods. It
would've been better if she
gave US something practical," another person replied.
"Ms. Hall's gifts are so practical. The fabric of those clothes is top-notch. Zara tried hers on in the office earlier, and it looked
amazing. I regret not grabbing one. Why should we care about the power struggle between the higher-ups? I don't care who my
boss is, but I sure want a generous boss. Even if Ms. Hall isn't perfect, she's wealthy and generous!"
One of the voices said, "Stop talking about it. I regret it so much. Even if I don't want to wear those clothes, they'll sell online at
thirty percent off with the tags still on. I'd rather have the money."
"Did you guys see Ms. Saun's face when the others went to queue for the clothes just now? Even those from the finance
department went in line. She can't even control her mom's people, yet she wants to manage others."
Jaylene's face became distorted. She clenched her fists and left.
Then, she called Julia, her face tense. "Besides firing them, do you have other methods to assert authority over those people?"
Upon hearing this, Julia immediately offered her strategy.
Jaylene fell silent for a moment after listening to the plan.
"Alright, I'll leave it to you. Make sure to do it well. Let them know who Caline belongs to, and you'll be compensated," she said,
gritting her teeth.
Julia eagerly agreed.
After hanging up the phone, she sent a message in the group chat: [Thanks, everyone. Dinner's on me tonight.]
Stella left at half past five. She swaggered out of the lobby, drawing many curious glances.
She contacted Felicity and then hailed a cab straight to Clouditude International.
Felicity had not finished work yet, and Vermont was alone at home. He greeted Stella with enthusiasm when he opened the door
and saw her. He offered her a glass of water and sat beside her, stroking his cat.
Stella took a sip of water and looked at Vermont. Suddenly, she asked, "Mr. Snyder, are you interested in investing in a short
drama film?"
