Chapter 1347
Renee nodded slightly and greeted her.
Jacquelin was sharp at observing people’s expressions and could tell Renee had something on her
mind. Following Renee’s gaze, she noticed her looking in the direction of Jade and Lena.
Renee did not have many interactions with Jade, so the only possible reason for her attention was the
person dressed in ck.
Jacquelin chuckled softly. “Ms. Thompson, it’s been a while since you’ve been to thepany. Did you
notice some significant changes when you came today?”
Renee hesitated, pretending not to understand.
Jacquelin persistently continued, raising her chin slightly. “Are you looking at her?”
Renee did not say anything, but Jacquelin noticed her fists clenching even tighter.
“Oh, Ms. Thompson, there’s nothing special about Granny Harding! How about I treat you to coffee
instead? Come on. Let’s go upstairs now. There are a few new items…”
“What did you just say?” Renee was puzzled. “You called her…”
“Oh, Granny Harding? That’s what we all call her! She always dresses in ck and looks so stodgy,
really annoying!”
Renee’s tense expression eased a bit.

A barely perceptible smile tugged at the corner of Jacquelin’s mouth. It seemed like what she had said
had hit a nerve with Renee.
She wondered what the connection was between Renee and Lena.
While Jacquelin was pondering, Renee’s soft voice sounded. “It’s not nice to judge people based on
appearances. She might have her own merits.”
“Oh, really?” Jacquelin smiled awkwardly and kept her thoughts to herself.
She hooked arms with Renee and behaved even more enthusiastically than before. “Ms. Thompson,
this coffee is on me! I really need to learn from you. When ites to seeing others’ strengths, I’m truly
not as good as you!”
Renee smiled back at her.
The people in the sales department were adept at smooth talking and ttery—it was of making a
living. Although Renee knew it was ttery, hearing it still felt quite gratifying.
With Jacquelin by her side, Renee went upstairs to the coffee shop.
“Ms. Thompson, do you know Lena?” Jacquelin handed her the mocha she just ordered.Books

Renee took a sip. It was not as bitter as coffee, but it was overly sweet. Sometimes, too much
sweetness could difort one’s taste buds.
“Ms. Thompson?”
“Oh…” Renee snapped out of her thoughts and calmly answered, “I don’t.”
Jacquelin was taken aback.
In reality, she did not know that Renee’s statement of not knowing Lena was not a cover-up but a
genuine wish that she had never known her.
However, Jacquelin’s intuition told her there was definitely something between the two of them. It was
just that this matter was likely deeply concealed, not something she could dig out in a short time.
Jacquelin had already started forming strategies in her mind. No matter how she looked at it, Renee
was a minor shareholder of the Thompson Group and the boss’ niece. Apart from Lina, who in the
entirepany could have a stronger background than hers?
Even if Lena did enter thepany through connections, her background could not possibly surpass
Renee’s—unless she was the boss’ own daughter!
Jacquelin smiled and ordered a dessert for Renee, steering the conversation in a different direction.
As for Lena, her true identity would slowlye to light in the future. If Lena had a conflict with Renee,
then Jacqueline would certainly side with Renee and assist her with advice and strategies!
After finishing the coffee, Renee walked out of the building.
The mocha was already pretty sweet, and Jacquelin had also ordered dessert. It became overly sugary
by the end, and she started feeling a little queasy.
The breeze outside was cooling, and she finally felt a bit better.
At that moment, her phone vibrated, disying an unfamiliar number on the screen.
