Chapter 1907
Darcie pursed her lips and said, "Wenham, do you still remember when Caline was just set
up, the perfume formula created by Freesia was leaked?"
Wenham paused and then frowned without saying anything.
It was a long time ago. The younger generation, including Aurora, had no recollection of
that event. Wenham, however, was aware of that.
The formula was leaked by an intern.
Upon completing the internship, the intern took the initial formula and switched to another
company. Consequently, the formula had to be discarded, and the manpower and
resources invested went down the drain. It was not until a year later that Caline’s classic
fragrance, "Secret Garden", was introduced, and the company was finally able to recover
from that setback.
Darcie continued softly, "I'm not being unreasonable, but it's a lesson from the past.
Because of what happened, Freesia had established a rule in the company, stating that
Caline would never hire another intern. This rule has not been broken for many years, and
if we were to make an exception now, it would be difficult to justify it to our employees.”
Darcie was not lying. Because of that incident, Freesia was indeed frightened by the
intern's betrayal and vowed never to offer internship positions anymore.
However, Stella chuckled upon hearing that.
Everyone else was very serious. It made her laughter seem somewhat out of place, and
they all turned to her.
Stella stirred her tea and flatly said, Darcie, our company's policy also explicitly states that
individuals with any respiratory diseases will not be eligible for employment. Yet, Jaylene
still got in despite having asthma. Did the HR department overlook her medical history, or
was there an exception made?"
Darcie was taken aback.
Jaylene saw that as a problem. So, she lifted her gaze and said, "How is that the same?
Caline is our family's company. Are you suggesting that an outsider should be treated the
same as me?"
"Well said," Stella agreed wholeheartedly. "Caline was founded by my mother. If Darcie, as
a partner, could ignore the company's policy and get her daughter hired, it'd only be right
if I could do the same for the captain's daughter, right?"
Jaylene's expression stiffened, as she frowned and said," You're going offtrack here. She's
not a family member no matter what. The plane crash was purely an accident, and the
captain's family will be compensated by the insurance company. We're already going to
provide them with additional compensation. Are we supposed to take care of her for the
rest of her life just because her father passed away?"
Wenham paused and looked at her in disbelief. "Do you hear yourself? Even if it was an
accident, it happened because he was supposed to fly Trevor back home. How can we not
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbe responsible for his death?"
Perhaps Jaylene's indifference shocked Wenham, and for the first time ever, he confronted
her with anger.
However, Stella was not surprised at all.
Jaylene only cared about her own interests. Any favor she received would merely be a
means for others to covet her wealth.
For example, after Stella saved her life, Trevor came to visit her alone. Jaylene did not
even bother to show up.
Asthma was not a chronic illness, and Trevor came to visit her a week later. Stella refused
to believe that Jaylene still could not get out of bed by then. She knew that Jaylene simply
did not want to come.
Of course, Stella knew that it was because the person who had saved her was the wife of
the man she had loved since childhood. It was just impossible for Jaylene to express her
gratitude.
Jaylene's expression immediately shifted upon hearing what Wenham said. Then, she
quickly explained, "Dad, that's not what I meant. Mom said that it's the company's rule..."
