Chapter 806 Did Not See Anything


    J''s words immediately yanked Dalores back to reality.


    Surely, Draco must have seen how J had pped her twice and pushed her on the ground.


    It was the perfect opportunity to ruin J''s image in Draco''s eyes, once and for all!


    Dalores immediately rushed over to him. "Did you see that, Mr. Wesley? J dragged me to the


    workroom just to p me. This is bullying!"


    "Why did you do that?" Draco asked J directly, his brows furrowed, his eyes clouded.


    Even so, his tone was neither harsh nor usatory.


    J opened her mouth to say something, but the words seemed to be stuck in her throat.


    If Draco had only seen what had transpired just now without knowing about the events that led up to


    it, then she really wasn''t in a position to defend her actions.


    "I have a personal matter to settle with Dalores. As such, I wanted to deal with it in private. I don''t


    want to cause any unnecessary trouble to the studio, and that''s why I took her to this room to


    resolve our issue." J didn''t bother to deny what she had done. She looked Draco in the eye and


    said, "I apologize, Mr. Wesley. I got carried away by my emotions and acted rashly."


    Dalores shed her a smug smirk before stering a pitiful expression on her face. "Mr. Wesley, as


    long as J stays at W Marks Studio, this incident is bound to repeat itself. She has no qualms


    about beating me up simply because she doesn''t like me. I can''t even begin to imagine how she will


    bully other colleagues in the future. I think it''s time for her to move on and find a different


    workce."


    Dalores spoke in an empathetic tone, as though her suggestions were meant for the general good


    and not her own interests. She was presently dealing the victim card, after all. She must note


    off as too aggressive.


    Draco said nothing, but his expression grew serious. His grip on his sketches tightened, crumpling


    the parchment.


    It wasn''t exactly strange for Dalores to be stirring up trouble, but J kept her head low, if only out


    of respect for Draco. He had mentored her diligently and told her she had promise, yet she went


    and beat one of his employees in his very own studio.


    Draco must be very disappointed in her.


    J didn''t even dare to lift her eyes, too upset at herself for letting him down.

    Seeing the tense faces of the other two, Dalores couldn''t help but snicker to herself. But since her


    face was now swollen from the ps earlier, her grin turned into an ugly grimace.


    Then, just when she thought that J was finally getting kicked out, Draco turned to Dalores and


    said, "You can leave the studio after you finish Elizabeth''s projects."


    She gaped at him. "Mr. Wesley... What are you —are you telling me to leave?"


    Draco was chasing her out? Not J?!


    The color drained from Dalores'' face. "But why should I leave? It was J who beat me up! I didn''t


    even fight back! I am the victim here, so why am I the one being dismissed? Mr. Wesley! Answer


    me, didn''t you see it clearly just now?"


    "You are not suited to W Marks," Draco said pointedly. "It was a mistake for me to hire you back in


    the first ce. Fortunately, it isn''t toote for me to correct that error. Well, then. Stop wasting time


    and get back to work. The sooner you finish, the sooner you can leave."


    With that, Draco turned around and made to leave.


    "Mr. Wesley," J called out instinctively, her eyes still wide with surprise.


    Draco''s eyes were somewhat dimmer than usual, but his tone remained calm, almost serene. "Why


    are you still standing there? Do you want to leave with Dalores?"


    "I just... I don''t understand, Mr. Wesley. Why have youe to such a decision?"


    The workroom was a small space, so she was fairly certain that Draco had seen everything since


    the beginning. How could he let her stay after what she had done, and fire Dalores instead?


    Of course, J knew that the wise thing to do would be to shut up and thank her lucky stars, but


    her curiosity got the better of her.


    "I didn''t see anything," Draco said lightly. "It was too noisy out on the atelier, so I came here to try


    and get some peace and quiet. The mannequins were in my way when you two argued, so I didn''t


    really get to see what happened. I only heard some noise; that''s all."


    Then he turned to Dalores, his tone bing sharp. "I don''t want W Marks to be constantly


    gued with petty squabbles. This is no ce for the likes of you, who incite such things on the


    regr. As for your usations against J, you are free to sue her in court, but leave me out of


    it. I will not testify because I didn''t see anything. As for firing you, it is my prerogative as the chief


    designer of the studio. It has nothing to do with the beef between the two of you."
