Chapter 140


    Chapter 140


    From the outside, Selena seemed to have no fear of Anastasia, but deep down, she was still a bit


    spooked by her.


    Anastasia looked pretty average, but there was something unsettling about her. She was like a ticking


    time bomb, ready to explode at any moment and potentially deliver a crippling blow.


    If it weren’t for Wendy’s picky nature, Selena wouldn’t have had to resort to giarizing Anastasia’s


    work in order to create something that would please


    her


    Selena was a top student from a prestigious university and had won many awards abroad. In contrast,


    Anastasia was just a high school graduate with no real experience in jewelry design. So, Selena


    copying Anastasia’s work was kind of a bitter pill to swallow. But when Wendy saw Anastasio’s work,


    she Instantly loved it and ced an order for the finished product


    Anastasia quit arguing with Selena and returned to her seat, calming herself down. But she wasn’t


    nning on letting this slide.


    “Anastasia, I’m beat. I need a break, Lauren said tiredly, having spent the morning shopping for


    materials. She plopped into a chair and moaned, “I came here to chase a guy, but I haven’t even seen


    him. I’m working my butt off every day, and I’m still broke, What am I doing this for, Anastasia?”


    Anastasia teased. “Didn’t you say that as long as you’re close, you’ll eventually run into him? You’re


    going to be the future wife of his


    “I’m just wasting my energy Lauren admitted. “Mr. Salstrom is at the head office. He won’te to our


    branch, I really messed up”


    Anastasia asked, puzzled, “Lauren, as the heiress of the Mill family, meeting the CEO shouldn’t be a


    problem. Why go through all this?”


    “You just don’t get him, Lauren evaded. “He’s out of everyone’s league. No other woman can get within


    three meters of him, except for his secretary and mother. Let me grab a drink”


    Anastasia asked curiously “Doesn’t this man n to get married? Lauren, are you sure Mr. Salstrom is


    into women?”


    Hearing that, Lauren spewed out the water she was drinking, looking around nervously, afraid that


    someone might have heard Anastasia “Anastasia, you’re really pushing it. If your words reach the


    CEO, we’re in deep trouble”


    Anastasia shrugged it off. “It’s a legitimate question. And there’s no one else here, don’t worry Nobody


    heard anything


    Lauren pondered the question and admitted, Tve wondered the same thing. Such a handsome man,


    thirty years old, and he’s never been seen with a girlfriend. Not even a rumor. It’s weird.”


    Anastasia didn’t care about Elysian Technologies CEO. She asked. “Lauren, you mentioned Selena


    exploiting employees. Can you tell me about it?”


    Judging by Selenas attitude, Anastasia guessed this wasn’t the first time she’d giarized. Other


    colleagues in the design department must have been exploited and had their work stolen too.

    “Why are you suddenly asking about this, Anastasia? Did that she-devil Selena bother you again?”


    Just tell me about her exploiting the staff.”


    If Anastasia wanted to deal with Selena, it wouldn’t be hard. Wendy asked Selena to design earrings


    and a ne, which was bait. As long as she seized this opportunity, she could find evidence of


    Selena’s giarism. She nned to install a miniature camera on her desk, deciding she wouldn’t stay


    quiet about this,


    To prevent Selena from seeing her drafts. Anastasia told no one about Selena’s giarism. She kept


    working diligently, lulling Selena intocency. When it was time to finish work, Anastasia clocked


    out on time. Even when Selena tried to make her stayte, Anastasia didn’t care. She had dirt on


    Selena and wasn’t afraid of her.


    After leaving thepany. Anastasia remembered Lauren’s story about Selena giarizing university


    students’ work to be the Chief Designer. This raised some questions for Anastasia. The timing of


    Selena’s giarism and when she was used of giarism at school was suspiciously coincidental


    As she had lost some of her memories, Anastasia wasn’t very familiar with the giarism incident back


    then. She decided to visit Monica at the beauty salon for more information


    On Herman’s side, Pattie slept all afternoon and went out with him for a social event in the evening.


    They were busy until about eleven o’clock


    Herman’s driver dropped him off at the entrance of Harmony Meadows. Herman got out of the car with


    Pattie and told Nelson, “Park the Chevrolet in the underground garage.”
