Wendy’s face gradually turned red with anger, glaring at Melinda, and itching to give her a good
thrashing.
“Melinda, you’re really asking for it!”
“Well, what you are gonna do about it?”
Melinda smirked and slowly exited Wendy’s office. Even after the door shut, it was as if Melinda’s
laughter still echoed in the room. Wendy clenched her fists on the desk, her eyes filled with anger and
hatred.
Her office was once again a disaster zone. The secretaries outside exchanged glances, their eyes filled
with helplessness.
Having a boss with such a short fuse was the pits. The office furniture and decorations had been
replaced several times, each piece top–notch. But she was loaded, so she didn’t give a damn about the
waste.
After Wendy blew her top, the gloom in her heart didn’t completely lift. Because her phone rang again,
and it was her mom. Though she was a bit irked, she dared not ignore her mother’s call.
Grace was the cousin of Queen Julia of Y Country’s daughter. This kinship was rather distant, so by the
time it reached little princesses, Beatrix and Becky, they were considered distant relatives. But they’ve
maintained a good relationship over the years, mainly due to their mother’s deliberate efforts.
She took a deep breath and answered the call.
Grace’s voice came through. “How have you been?”
Wendy replied, “Not so great.”
Grace went silent for a bit, “Today, the Harper family called all the servants from Hong Kong back.
Elizabeth will probably be very busy. If you’re free, lend
a hand…”
Wendy’s breath hitched. She was already fed up, and now she had to deal with those servants?!
Grace seemed to sense her current mood, “The Harper family’s servants watched you grow up, and
having a good relationship with them will also benefit you in the future. This isn’t just my personal
advice. It’s also your father’s opinion.”
Grace’s last sentence was loaded, Wendy fell silent for a moment, then gradually let go of her anger. “I
get it.”
Patience is key in everything you do. Consider issues from multiple perspectives, and let me add…”
Grace’s voice halted, Wendy heard her shooing away the servants. After a while, Grace lowered her
voice and said, “Your father told me that Austin’s Hardware, which was acquired by the Harper Group
this time, was promoted by Robin himself. I checked the related news online. If it’s just a coincidence,
fine, but if not, think about how deep and terrifying Chloe’s schemes are…”
Wendy was startled, gripping her phone tight, “That’s impossible, I’ve already investigated! This is all
because of a disgruntled hotel employee named Rhoda who was fired by Chloe. She used her
boyfriend Rupin’s infatuation with Chloe, and plotted against Chloe out of jealousy…”
“But the fact is, Austin’s Hardware has been acquired by the Harper Group. I don’t think this is a
coincidence.”
“But how could Chloe have known that was Robin’s property? She has enough schemes already,
Rhoda, the Dudley family, Melinda, even me…how could she think that far ahead?!”
Wendy gritted her teeth. She didn’t believe it!
That woman had so many people in her clutches, it was frightening! If she planned to exploit Robin on
top of that, then this woman…
She didn’t believe it! Her mind could be that cunning! How could she admit that this woman’s
intelligence, schemes, and tactics, all surpassed her own. “Don’t rush to deny it, perhaps, it started as a
coincidence, but that doesn’t mean it was decided on the spur of the moment. An improvised plan is
even more terrifying. And the cleverest part of this is that she completely absolved Damon of any
responsibility! Robin can only swallow his anger. It looks like Damon was just standing up for his
fiancée! Even if Robin did pursue it, he’d be rebutted, and might even expose his ulterior motives…”
Grace said while shivering. No wonder Wendy didn’t want to believe it, she found it hard to believe
herself. Unbeknownst to them, this woman named Chloe, had already been entangled in the Harper
family’s internal strife. And it seemed like she was utterly clueless, completely in the dark.
“…. Anyway, don’t treat this as a coincidence! Don’t underestimate this woman!”
Wendy’s body tensed, her eyes cold. “…I understand! But how did my father know about Robin’s
affairs? Mom, don’t tell me Father and Robin are on the same side!”
“How could that be? The Alonso family will be yours to lead in the future! Wherever your intentions lie,
your father will naturally be there. It’s just that now, it’s not yet time to clearly choose sides.”
Wendy pondered for a moment, her thoughts unclear, and gradually her brows relaxed.
“I see, as long as you guys know where to draw the line.”
“Mmhm.”
After hanging up. Wendy’s mood calmed down. She sat quietly for a while, then got up, put on her coat,
and left the company.
There were many servants in the Harper family’s mansion in Hong Kong. Those who were now being
transferred had worked for the Harper family for many years. Some had even served the Harper family
for generations, so the concept of master–servant hierarchy in the Harper family still persisted.
Even though Elizabeth tried to change the mindset of the Harper family when she first joined them, she
couldn’t completely eradicate their deeply ingrained beliefs. The servants here in P City were
somewhat more open–minded, but those who came back from Hong Kong still held conservative and
outdated views.
While she was ticked off, Elizabeth was also dishing out tasks. Seeing them all bowing and scraping
was enough to make anyone want to blow off some
steam.
Chloe had the company’s work sorted out nicely, so she clocked out early and headed home. Sure,
there was a ton of stuff going on with the company and personal matters, but you had to tackle things
one at a time. After all, she was now a part of the Harper family. The servants who had been
transferred from Hong Kong today needed to be arranged, and she had no reason not to lend a hand.
But the second she arrived at the door, she saw Elizabeth with a look of impatience on her face. In the
end, she flat–out decided to let the two older butlers take charge, planning not to get involved anymore.
Chloe chuckled, indeed, her free–spirited and easy–going nature wasn’t cut out for dealing with these
nitty–gritty tasks. Luckily, Damon’s character wasn’t like his mom’s.
