Chapter 883 Unpleasant Rumors
Everyone stared at Janet, waiting for her to tell the truth. Janet stood still, stunned. Her eyes narrowed
as she looked over at Dalores. There was a triumphant expression on Daloresâ face.
It was an undeniable truth that Janet had been involved in the Draco situation, but Jorge, Elizabethâs
ex-boyfriend, had been involved too. If Janet told the truth, it would only raise more questions. .
âThere was an accident on the way to the airport,â she said finally, âIt wasnât a big deal. Donât think
about it too much. Besides, the rumors arenâttrue. Donâtbelieve them.â Janet tried to explain as briefly
and as vaguely as she could.
However, Dalores wasnât so easily satisfied. âYour explanation is far too perfunctory,â she said
suspiciously. âYou havenât said anything we didnât already know. Since Mr. Wesley doesnât want to
explain, itâs down to you to explain on his behalf. Thereâs been rumors swirling around about you too,
you know. But, being your colleagues, we didnât dare mention them,â she added.
Janet stared at Dalores with cold, expressionless eyes. âDonât spread rumors,â she said firmly
Daloresâ smile vanished, and she shrugged. âI donât spread rumors,â she said sulkily. âI just heard that
the flight was suspended for no reason, and that it was the Larson Group who prevented the plane
from taking off.
You have no idea how nasty some of these rumors are. Someone said that it was Brandon who tried to
kill Draco, because he was jealous of how close Draco was to you. Someone else said that you
deliberately harmed Draco in order to go to Iridescent Show aloneâ¦â
Dalores suddenly gasped and covered her mouth dramatically. âOh, please donât be angry, Janet. Did I
say something I shouldnât have?â
Janet smiled serenely. âI knew you hadnât turned over a new leaf,â she said in a soft voice. âYou still
love to slander othersâ¦â
Dalores looked pleased with herself. When all was said and done, she had still won back Dracoâs trust.
She no longer had to worry about being driven away by Janet.
Janet scowled.
Just then, Draco walked out of the office and interrupted them.
âTasha, p@ssthese materials out to everyone, please,â he said. âIâve done some screening, and all of
our current orders have been delegated to the most suitable designer,â Draco explained. âThere are
many orders, so weâre about to be very busy for some time. Thank you in advance for your hard work.â
Tasha put down her cake and took hold of the document. Almost everyone had been delegated an
order, including a small one for herself.
âMr. Wesley, these ordersâ¦â she began. Tasha was more thankful than she could say.
âDonât worry,â said Draco kindly. âYouâve been working with W Marks for a while. Iâve seen your design,
and I think it is in line with the order I arranged for you.â With a relaxed expression on his face, Draco
looked quite gentle.
Tasha nodded. She distributed the document to every designer. After getting her copy, Janet opened it
and read it carefully. Hers was the only order that required a high -grade customized dress, and the
quoted price was the highest by far.
âMr. Wesley, this seems beyond my capability,â she said, full of doubt. It was the first time Janet had
been delegated such an important order.
âYou went to Iridescent Show and achieved great success on behalf of W Marks,â Draco replied. âYou
deserve this order.â Draco smiled faintly. Perhaps due to his recovery, or to overuse, his voice was a
little weak.
Janet nodded obediently. âI will do my best,â she said. Still holding the document, Janet smiled at Draco
and said, âMr. Wesley, itâs time for you to go back and get some rest.â
She couldnât help but notice that Draco was looking a lot more haggard than heâd looked earlier.
âWait a minute!â interrupted Dalores. âMr. Wesley, why havenât I been delegated an order?â Looking
around, Dalores had noticed that everyone had a project to work on but her.
She was confused. Over the past few days, Dracoâs attitude towards her had changed, indicating that
perhaps he was willing to give her another chance.
So why hadnât she received a project now? It seemed incredibly unfair.
Draco looked at Dalores with disappointment in his eyes. Without further explanation, he announced
that he was going home. âIâm quite tired from todayâs dealings,â he said.
Upon leaving, he left instructions for the personnel. âThe studioâs arrangements for Dalores havenât
changed,â he said. âAfter her current project is complete, she neednât come back again.â
