Chapter 404: No Other Witnesses

Patty’s words were well within reason. It was still lunch break and when Tiffany called Patty to her

office, a bunch of senior designers came with her. They wasted no time putting in good words for Patty.

"We’ve been working together for a long time, and we’ve got to know each other very well Patly might

be a little sharp-tongued, but she is not a liar"

"That’s right Patty is always friendly and willing to help the new hires, too.She was very happy when

she learned that she would be Janet’s partner on this project.Who would have thought that things

would turn out like this? It seems to me that anyone who works with Janet ends up getting screwed one

way or another"

"It’s not the first time that something like this happened, either, and Janet is involved each time.It’s all

your fault, Lind.Why are you blaming other people?"

Janet was trembling with rage.

"It has nothing to do with me," she said through gritted teeth.

"The issue is between Patty and Ronald."

Then she turned to Patty and said, "I have never done anything to you, so why did you set me up?"

"It’s you who set me up." Patty countered innocently.

Seeing that it was useless to argue her side, Janet said nothing more and strode out of Tiffany’s

office.She knew that an explanation alone wouldn’t be enough to convince her colleagues.She needed

concrete evidence to back her up.

Unfortunately, Ronald’s companions had gone out to smoke when the incident happened.

There were no other witnesses aside from her and Patty.

Janet took a cab and went to the hotel where they had dinner last night.

"Apologies, Miss, but we have these private rooms for a reason.The term speaks for itself, so naturally,

we do not have surveillance cameras in these rooms."

The receptionist was blunt and dismissive toward Janet Her attitude mainly had to do with the fact that

Janet was an average career woman such as herself, and not among the elite that she was used to

cozying up to.

"I see.I’m sorry for taking up your time.In that case, did anyone from your staff happen to hear a

commotion in that particular room last night?"

Janet wasn’t about to give up just yet.

"I’m really sorry, Miss," the receptionist said, sounding impatient this time.

"We cater to countless guests every day.We can’t possibly keep track of anything that’s going on

behind closed doors."

Janet felt her heart sink. Without evidence, no one would believe her.Her last option was Ronald

himself.

Janet crossed her fingers and hoped that he would give her a moment of his time.

Unfortunately, it looked like Ronald was keen on taking revenge for what had happened last night.

Janet’s call never went through, making her realize that he had already blacklisted her.

Left with no other choice, she decided to go over to Yoyo Fashion. She would camp outside his office if

she had to.

"I’m sorry," the company’s receptionist said, her face blank.

"Mr.Williams has said that he will not be seeing anyone from the Larson Group."

But Janet was tenacious.She took a step in the direction of the elevator banks.

"I just want to see him for a bit.I will leave once I’ve explained everything to him."

"Please, Miss.If you don’t leave right away.I’m afraid I will have to ask security to see you out."

Even though she said this, the receptionist had already taken out her walkie-talkie and proceeded to

speak to the receiver.

"Come to the reception.A suspicious person is here, and she refuses to leave."

Janet gnashed her teeth together, her nostrils flaring.She eventually trudged out of Yoyo Fashion,

feeling bitter and dejected.
