    Chapter 136


    “Taya, are you all right?”


    Seeing Brielle’s face made me feel a bit morefortable, and my frustration slowly calmed down so I


    could get my racing heart back under control.


    “I’m fine.”


    “Are you sure?”


    Brielle’s face was full of disbelief. She knew me the best out


    of anyone here. She knew I didn’t say anything about my grievances and silently endured them. But I


    saw the looks she gave when things were said to me or about me.


    “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. You should get back out there. If Margaret can’t find you, she’ll get


    upset and call you l azy again.”


    Brielle was an intern, and she worked for Margaret. Before we fell out with each other, we could get


    along well on the surface. Now that things had turned out like this, if Margaret saw that Brielle was still


    close to me, Margaret would definitely y some tricks on Brielle behind her back.


    It had not been easy for Brielle to enter Midwest Packs Corporation, and I knew she was looking


    forward to bing a full-time employee. She needed Margaret’s approval though,


    and I thought it better not to get Brielle into trouble. Brielle seemed to have realized this as well. She


    hesitated momentarily, but in the end, she still nodded. “Okay, I’ll get back to work.”


    I waved my hand and smiled. “I’m okay. Promise.”


    Only then did Brielle leave the bathroom.


    As soon as she left, the smile on my face faded.


    Tara wanted me to be the one to entertain Jackson while he was in Arcadia. Sometimes, when


    business partners came to the Midwest Packs Corporation for business trips, thepany would


    indeed send people to “entertain” them.


    For example, the people would arrange food, clothing, amodation, entertainment, etc. This was


    the treatment that guests who came in to talk aboutrge contracts would get.


    And the bidding for the Weston City project was a veryrge contract.


    I had such an unbearable past with Jackson. If I were to shamelessly try to please him again, I would


    probably be mistaken for still being obsessed with him and deliberately approaching him under the


    guise of work.


    Griffon would also think that I was an ambitious woman who


    had dared to ignore his warning and continue to seduce his future brother-inw.


    Embarrassment flooded me when I thought about being misunderstood by Jackson and Griffon.


    However,pared to the 1.2 million dor penalty fee, embarrassment was nothing.N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
