Chapter 829 The Pungent Smell Of Cheap Perfume
Kelly's mind was in a mess.
What Vera had said greatly surprised her.It was only a matter of tbefore she connected all the clues and figured out Janet's
identity.
Kelly was abroad getting her medical treatment, so she didn't know much about what had happened back home.
When she cback, her colleagues filled her in with sbig news while she was away.
She hadn't learned that Brandon got married till then.
She didn't look into the matter and certainly didn't know who Brandon had married.
Kelly would have never imagined Jto be the person, mainly because she didn't expect Laney would know such a big shot as
Mrs.Larson! Laney used to be a bodyguard, right? How could she be possibly connected to Brandon's wife in any way?
Immediately, Kelly's face darkened.She then leaned over to look at Janet's necklace.
She feigned a smile and said, "I've never seen such a huge diamond before.But of course, Mrs.Larsen has excellent taste.Only
you will look so good with this necklace."
Kelly unwillingly praised Janet.She had never in her life felt so resentful and angry.
Jsmiled a half-hearted smile.
And then, she covered her nose and sneezed repeatedly.
Jwaved her hand in response.
"No.It's just that I'm not used to the smell of cheap perfume.Miss Astley, would you mind staying away from me?"
Janet's nose was a little red.She pretended to be worried as she looked at Laney.
"The smell of Kelly's perfis quite offensive.Can Laney bear it? Even non-pregnant women likewant to throw up, how
much more would it be for Laney?"
Jwas no pushover, especially so when it cto her friend.
Kelly dared to pick on Laney in front of her, and so Jhad to fight back.
What Jsaid was just a reminder to Kelly.
As the secretary of Garrett, Kelly ought to respect Laney.
Kelly flushed and turned to look at Jindignantly.
How could Jsay that she used cheap perfin front of so many people! Vera cast a cool glance at Kelly.She could tell that
the perfwas not the issue here.
Perhaps Kelly had said something to displease Janet.
Vera, however, didn't want to mess with the Larson Group.
In a soft voice, she said, "Kelly, maybe you should leave."
Kelly clenched her fists.She had no choice but leave.
"Yes, Mrs.Harding, I will wait outside for you," she said as she held back her anger.
Vera sighed with relief.
She looked at Laney and said in a softer tone, "Laney, you still have a lot of things to learn from Janet.As you can see, Janet
behaves well.Because she knows that Brandon has a social engagement, she will find herself something else to do.You can do
what she does.Don't stick with Garrett all the time.Like today, since he is not here, you can go withand meet new people."
Laney beca little nervous.She had never been afraid before, regardless of how powerful the enemy was.But Vera being
here with her made her feel very scared.
Jfelt that Laney was holding her hand more tightly.
"Mrs.Harding, do you mind if I have a few words with Laney?"
"Go ahead."
Jpulled Laney aside and told her, "Look, it's not really a big deal.Think of them as potatoes, and you'll do just fine.That's
what I used to do.You are lovely and flawless right now.Those ladies are simply amazed at you.It's Garrett's loss that he didn't
see you today."
Laney managed a smile, but only a faint one.
"Thank you.I'm so glad you're here.If not, I wouldn't know what to do,"
Laney said appreciatively.
"Laney, it's tfor us to go."
Vera reminded her in a quiet voice.
Jlooked at Laney positively before watching Vera take Laney away.
"What happened just now?"
"You scared me! Why didn't you make any noise when you walked?"
Jgave her chest a pat.She didn't know when Brandon had approached her.
