Chapter 2259
Speaking, Ste nced at Jaylene. "I''m working at Caline as a shareholder. Just like Ms. Saun and
Sonia, we all got in through connections with a certain shareholder. Since you want to use this method
to hold me and Sonia ountable, should I then also hold Ms. Saun and Ms. Arnold ountable?”
Jaylene was left pale and angry by her logically sound yet cryptic words. And Ste''s words dealt a
heavy blow to everyone present.

The founder of Caline was someone who hadn''t been mentioned for many years, so subsequent hires
only knew Darcie. On theirpany website, they praised Darcie as the founder, briefly mentioning the
previous partners.
Except for those employees who had worked for decades, everyone thought that Caline''s sess
today was all thanks to Darcie. Even when Ste joined thepany, they only thought it was Darcie
looking after the daughter of her former partner out of sentimentality. After all, whether it was Aubrey or
Jaylene, the implication in their words when mentioning this was clear.
But it turns out that the rarely mentioned founder, Ms. Hall, Ste’s mother, was actually thergest
shareholder, initially holding 90% of the shares. Did she really invest so much money to start Caline,
just leaving a 10% investment for Darcie?
In other words, Darcie actually only contributed a small amount of money to be a partner in
Caline, profiting from the foundationid by her predecessor.
All those ims of being self-made, an independent businesswoman, a genius in perfumery... They
were just reaping the benefits of Ms. Hall''s early demise.
Hearing what Ste said, the idea that "If Sonia causes trouble, Ste should resign" made everyone
have second thoughts.
Ste held more shares than Darcie, and no one had the authority to dismiss her. It was clearly a
message directed at the employees, making it clear that if the essential oil was indeed broken by
Sonia, Ste would have to answer to the public for her own words.
Perhaps the only thing that caught Darcie off guard was Ste directly stripping away the persona
Darcie had built in thepany.
Darcie''s face darkened. She suppressed her anger and said, "I will be ountable for the Grace
incident. Now, if Sonia did break the S-type essential oil, how do you propose to exin it to
everyone?"
Ste didn''t take the bait. "If Sonia did break it, she shouldpensate. As for exining to everyone,
I will humbly learn from Ms. Arnold''s approach."
The implication was clear: however you handle Jaylene, I''ll handle Sonia.
Darcie''s face turned slightly green. "Compensate? With what? Do you know the value of this oil?
Without it, how many high-end clients will I lose?"
Ste hadn''t spoken yet when Sonia, who had been silent all along, said, "I can try. I should be able to
recreate it."
