Elizabeth was so excited that she broke into a huge grin.
Never in her wildest dreams would she have thought that she’d have the chance to stay after what happened. She
kept thanking Draco profusely.
“Thank you so much, Mr.Wesley! I promise I won’t let you down ever again!”
Without saying a word, Draco raised his hand, dismissing her from his office politely.
Although Natalie had been bent over her desk working, she couldn’t help but worry about Elizabeth and kept looking
at Draco’s door expectantly.
When Elizabeth finally came out of his office, she couldn’t wait to stand up and ask, “Well? How did it go?”
As soon as Elizabeth walked back to her cubicle, she began to pack up her things.
With a bright smile on her face, she explained, “Mr.Wesley said I’m suspended momentarily, so I won’t come
tomorrow. Take care of yourself, okay? Don’t let Dalores bully you.”
Then, she distributed her work to Natalie and Tasha.
“I only trust you two to handle my work while I’m gone. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to call me.”
As soon as Elizabeth finished speaking, she began to sort out the work she’d been working on.
It was already time to get off work by the time she had sorted everything out.
However, before she could turn the documents over to Natalie, Dalores came “Wait a minute. You can’t just give
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie any project information!”
Smiling smugly, Dalores reached out and snatched the thick stack of documents from Elizabeth.
“Mr.Wesley said that I’ll take over your work.”
Natalie frowned dubiously. She doubted Draco would do such a thing.
Even if he hadn’t assigned it to her, he wouldn’t have given Elizabeth’s remaining work to Dalores.
It was Dalores’s fault that the issue came to a point where Mrs. Fuller came to the studio to make a scene,
reporters in tow.
“You’d better not be lying. I’m going to ask Mr.Wesley myself to see if you’re telling the truth.”
The look in Natalie’s eyes became colder as she spoke.
She stood up and was about to go straight to Draco’s office.
However, just then, Tasha came out of his office with some files.
She grabbed a hold of Natalie’s wrist and said in a low voice, “Natalie, don’t.”
Shocked, Natalie looked into Tasha’s eyes for answers.
“Do you know something?”
Tasha sighed.
“Just now, Mr.Wesley called me and Dalores into his office. He told us to take over Elizabeth’s projects.”
Natalie’s eyes went as wide as saucers.
When she glanced at Dalores, she was staring back at her with an arrogant look on her face.
Why would Draco choose her? Everyone knew that Dalores was not a reliable designer.
It was very likely that she’d ruin Elizabeth’s projects.
Moreover, she doubted Elizabeth would be able to get her projects back from Dalores upon her return.
“Let me ask Mr.Wesley myself!”
Natalie was so pissed off that she couldn’t help but snap at Tasha.
“Natalie, calm down.”
Elizabeth stopped her.
She leaned close and whispered in Natalie’s ear, “It’s okay. Mr. Wesley’s a smart man. He knows what he’s doing.
He probably gave Dalores my projects so that she’d keep her mouth shut.I don’t want to make a big deal out of it,
okay?”
After a slight pause, she added bitterly, “I know I probably won’t get these projects back once I hand them over to
Dalores. But that’s what I get for causing the leak. It’s a lenient punishment compared to losing my job here
forever.”
Elizabeth then looked at Dalores coldly.
“Take the files. There are a lot of deadlines coming up.”
“I don’t need you to tell me! I’m much more hard-working than you,” Dalores snorted.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as Dalores got her hands on the files, she beamed with pride.
She immediately sat down to leaf through them with great interest.
Gradually, her eyes took on a greedy light.
Everyone in the W Marks Studio was well aware that Elizabeth had been working for Draco for the longest time and
was one of his best assets.
The projects that were assigned to her were all well-paid and in cooperation with rich ladies.
In her last job, Dalores didn’t get to rub shoulders with the clients directly, so she didn’t get to make any
connections.
The more she flipped through the documents, the greedier her smile.
Elizabeth’s clients were all rich ladies were kind and lenient.
Elizabeth must’ve made a fortune in commissions over the years.
Dalores couldn’t wait to finish reading them.
Tasha took her half of the work from Elizabeth.
She held the documents tightly and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll keep an eye on Dalores so that she won’t ruin your
designs.” Elizabeth chuckled wryly. She had no choice now.
While Dalores was happily browsing through the materials, she saw Tasha chatting with Elizabeth from the corner of
her eye.
She turned around and shouted, “Tasha, what’re you still doing there? Get to work!”
She sounded like an army general.
