Chapter 402
The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride
Seeing the accusatory look on Tiffanyâs face, Janet didnât know how to explain the situation.
âRonald molested Patty first. How dare he complain and act like we were in the wrong here?â
Tiffany looked unhappy. Seeing that both Janet and Patty were silent, she continued, âThis collaboration is extremely important to us. Yoyo Fashion holds a significant position in the fashion industry with a worldwide reputation and popularity. But you have now offended Ronald. It will inevitably affect the project weâre working on. They now want to call it off and the bonus of this quarter for the design department will definitely be ruined.â
Tiffany took a deep breath and cast a reproachful look at Janet. âWhat the hell is going on? I know you two had dinner with Ronald last night. What the hell happened?â
âDidnât Ronald tell you why he wants to cancel the collaboration when he spoke to you over the phone?â Janet asked in confusion.
âHe lost his temper and didnât tell me why he canceled the cooperation. Now you tell me what happened last night so we can find a way to deal with it.â Tiffany was incredibly distressed.
Seeing the accusatory look on Tiffanyâs face, Janet didnât know how to explain the situation.
Janet pursed her lips and glanced at Patty.
After all, she was responsible for everything. It would be better if she explained everything.
The latter dropped her gaze to the floor without uttering a word.
Patty seemed fierce last night, and Janet believed she would own up to it soon. Therefore, she stood aside without saying anything.
Noticing that Janet was staring at her, Patty raised her head and cast a hesitant look at Tiffany. âMiss Fisher, can I talk to you in private?â
After a momentâs thought, Tiffany nodded before turning to look at Janet. âLind, you can leave now. Iâll call you in if I need anything.â
*******
Janet returned to her workstation in silence.
She wondered if Tiffany would reprimand Patty. After all, judging from Tiffanyâs rage, it seemed obvious this project was important to the company. However, what happened last night was Ronaldâs fault. She believed Tiffany, being a woman, would understand what Patty had done to protect herself.
After a long while, Patty finally walked out of Tiffanyâs office.
Jonet pursed her lips ond glonced ot Potty.
After oll, she wos responsible for everything. It would be better if she exploined everything.
The lotter dropped her goze to the floor without uttering o word.

She wondered if Tiffony would reprimond Potty. After oll, judging from Tiffonyâs roge, it seemed obvious this project wos importont to the compony. However, whot hoppened lost night wos Ronoldâs foult. She believed Tiffony, being o womon, would understond whot Potty hod done to protect herself.
After o long while, Potty finolly wolked out of Tiffonyâs office.
As Patty walked past Janetâs desk, she glanced at Janet and shook her head, her eyes full of helplessness and disappointment.
The strange look in her eyes confused Janet. She couldnât understand Pattyâs expression, but it made her stomach churn with anticipation.
âWhy is Patty staring at you that way? Did you make a mistake?â Gerda whispered to Janet as she munched the chips. She always ate snacks while working to help herself relax.
Janetâs brows furrowed in confusion. âI donât know.â
Not long after, Tiffany came out of her office. She looked at Janet and let out a weary sigh. It looked like she wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. Finally, she returned to her office without saying a word.
Janet could sense that Tiffanyâs attitude toward her had changed. After all, the woman gave her the same disappointing helpless look just as Patty did a while ago.
However, Janet couldnât understand why they were giving her strange looks for no reason.
