Chapter 239
Everyone looked at each other and did not say a word.
Reba furrowed her brows and immediately approached her, saying, “Madam Caddel, you...”
However, before Reba could finish her sentence, Madam Caddel pped her directly, saying, “You, you little vixen! You''re
helping my husband conceal the jewelry order from me, even though I’m customizing jewelry here for you!”
E
Reba covered her face and looked at Madam Caddel in disbelief, saying, “How could you resort to violence?”
“I''m hitting you!” Madam Caddel stared at Reba arrogantly as if she were looking at
an ant
Reba, who had been pped in front of everyone in the design department, angrily trembled. She eximed, “Are you being
reasonable? Your husband betrayed you. What does it have to do with me?”
Madam Caddel grabbed Reba’s hair and said, “You little slut, you''re finally telling the truth, aren’t you? You knew what my
husband was doing behind my back, and you still dare to say it has nothing to do with you!”
Reba, still in a vulnerable position with Madam Caddel grabbing her hair, dared not fight back and said with a sobbing voice,
“Your husband is having a good time with another woman behind your back. This has nothing to do with me!”
Madam Caddel was furious upon hearing this and pushed Reba’s head down, saying, “You still dare to say this? He brought
that little vixen to you for jewelry design, and you, for the sake of money, deceived your client while knowing the truth. And you
say it has nothing to do with you? Watch me today. I''ll teach you a lesson and put an end to your ill-gotten gains!”
Finally, everyone came to their senses and rushed forward to break the fight.
Everyone understood that Reba had taken the risk to ept two clients. One was a mistress of the other’s husband.
Madam Caddel’s husband hade to have jewelry customized with her andter brought his mistress to the same ce to
tailor-make jewelry, and they both chose Reba for the job.
Reba was well aware of the situation but still epted both businesses.
When Madam Caddel discovered this, she could not confront her husband’s mistress as

he was very cautious and protective of his mistress, so she directed her anger at Reba.

It took a lot of effort from Skyler to persuade Madam Caddel to leave, and he promised to cancel the jewelry customization for
the third party.
Once Madam Caddel left, Reba slumped in her seat, Crying softly.
What happened to Reba starkly contrasted to what happened in the morning. Everyone felt that she deserved it. Not many
people paid attention to her and went to have lunch.
After all, Reba knew that the other party was a mistress, but she did not consider whether there would be any disputes in the
future and epted the order. Given the current situation, she asked for it!
Reba had not eaten lunch, and her eyes were red from crying. In the afternoon, just before work, she wanted to get some
water. However, as soon as she reached the pantry. door, she overheard people discussing her.
“No wonder she stood on the side of the mistress in the morning and criticized Ms. Webb. It turns out she’s promoting being a
third party herself!”
“For the sake of business, she wouldn’t care if you’re a mistress or not. This kind of person has no moral boundaries at all! She
can’t bepared to Ms. Webb!”
“Maybe she wants to be a mistress herself. It''s just that she hasn’t found a suitable man!”
Reba was so furious that her whole body shook. She rushed forward, wanting to shut. up this group of people.
However, before she could take a single step, someone grabbed her arm.
Reba turned her head angrily, and Ellie pulled her into the stairwell. She noticed. that Reba was seething mad and said,
“Even if you rushed up just now and stopped. those people from discussing, you wouldn''t be able to stop the others from
discussing!”
Reba retorted angrily, “Then what do you think | should do?”
Ellic subtly fanned the mes, saying. “In fact, the reason everyone is reacting so. strongly is mainly because of what happened
with Violet this morning. People areparing your situation to hers!”
Reba clenched her fists tightly. “I won’t let her have it easy!”
Ellic’s eyes shed. “Against someone like Violet, you can’t do it openly. You have to hit the weak spot, do you understand?!”

Reba turned to look at her. “What is Violet’s weak spot?”
Ellie lowered her voice. “The people around her. | knew it. Megan from the Information Technology Department likes Skyler, but
I''m Skyler’s legitimate girlfriend.”
Ellie’s tone carried a hidden meaning. “If you can trust me, I''ll assist you...”
Reba raised her gaze, her expression dark as she looked at Ellie. Deep in her eyes, at sinister glint shimmered.
As the end of the workday approached, Violet Webb received a WhatsApp message from Patrick.
Patrick: [Let’s go out for dinner tonight. I''ll be waiting for you in the parking lotter.]
Violet: [I have something on tonight. Eat by yourself]
Patrick: [Something came up? What is it? And with whom?]
Violet looked at Patrick''s message and could almost imagine him furrowing his brow, looking serious, and typing tensely.
Her lips could not help but curl into a slight smile.
Violet: [I''ve made an after-work dinner appointment with Majorie. | might be backte tonight!]
Patrick: [What time will it be exactly? There’s a curfew at home now!]
Violet: [What curfew? | had no idea!]
Patrick: [From 10 o’clock, starting today. | made that decision. Any issues with that?]
Violet: [I might not be able to return until after 11 p.m. I''ll stay outside tonight!]
Patrick: [I dare you!]
Violet: [Then what do you think we should do? | can’t keep up with the ess. restrictions!]
Violet: [So, what should | do then? | won’t make it before the curfew!]
Violet looked at her phone and could not help butugh. The ess restrictions could be changed like this!
Violet: [Alright, I''ll try my best to get back to Hersey Court before 11 p.m.!]
Patrick: [It’s not about trying your best. You have to! You can’t stay overnight outside.
anymore. Even if it’s a special situation, you must report to the butler!]Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
Violet: [Got it!]

She stared at her phone and smiled sheepishly. Reporting to the butler was the same as reporting to him!
In any case, the butler would ry the exact message back to Patrick.
What a childish man!
After six o’clock, at the Sunny May Hotel. Violet and Marjorie entered the elevator and went straight to the eleventh floor.
In the morning, Marjorie discovered that Bob and Helen had booked two hourly rooms. at Sunny May Hotel for tonight, from 7
p.m. to 10 p.m. Their rooms were adjacent, and one could easily guess that these two were trying to conceal their activities.
ording to their rtionship, there was an 80% chance they would end up in the
same room.
To obtain solid evidence of Bob’s cheating, Marjorie bribed a hotel waiter and obtained the room cards for these two rooms. She
asked Violet to apany her.
Violet, after being persuaded, reluctantly agreed.
The two decided to ce a miniature surveince device in each room, with each. person responsible for one of the rooms.
They got out of the elevator and quickly walked towards the two rooms. They did not even notice that, not far behind them,
another elevator door opened, and Patrick walked out with a stern expression.
At the room’s entrance, Violet nced at Marjorie and said, “Once you’ve ced the surveince device, don’te looking for
me. Let’s go straight downstairs and meet in the parking lot!”
