Aurelia took out her phone. “Here’s a message from Ms. Hanks‘ assistant, Flora Lincoln. She scheduled a meeting at the photoshoot location at 9:00 am. Do you think it’s fake? Let’s verify that.”

After saying that, Aurelia didn’t give anyone on the other side a chance to respond and directly dialed the number.

Flora, standing behind Eva, panicked and tried to turn off her phone. However, she accidentally dropped it and the melodious ringtone rang through the meeting room.

Lucia frowned and glanced at Eva.

Eva turned around and glared at Flora. She snapped, “Aren’t that you should turn off your phone during meetings?”

Flora nervously responded, “I–I’m sorry.”

Eva immediately pointed to the door and said, “Get out of here! Pack up your things and leave this instant.”

Flora’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Eva.

Eva disregarded Flora and said, “You’ve seen it too–this is Flora’s way of doing things. I’ve already let her go a long time ago. I only kept her around for the shoot out of pity.

“Although she messed up the scheduling, it doesn’t mean it was our company’s fault. At the end of the day, we’re here to talk about the damaged jewelry, not the scheduling

issue.”

Aurelia’s fists clenched tightly. Despite everyone being present, Eva still had the gall to

twist the facts.

Eva smiled at Aurelia’s silence and said, “Ms. Simmons, it’s no use fighting against us. We hope you’ll sign the agreement soon to prevent this matter from escalating. It won’t be good for your reputation either.”

“Is that so?” Aurelia raised an eyebrow and asked.

Aurelia turned her gaze to look at Flora, who was trembling at the side. “Ms. Lincoln, since you were fired a long time ago, why are you still doing things for Ms. Hanks? And you even scheduled meetings for her. What’s the meaning of this? Are you acting on your own?

“If that’s the case, I can’t sign the agreement. How can I be sure that someone didn’t purposely have you invite me to the photoshoot location to cause an accident?”

She continued, “Since Ms. Hanks has denied all responsibilities, then it’s all on you. What right do you have to personally schedule a meeting with us to discuss cooperation? In that case, even if you don’t shoulder half the blame, you should at least bear one–fifth of it, right?”

Aurelia deliberately exaggeratedly turned toward Leslie and asked, “What’s one–fifth of 50 million dollars? It seems like such an astronomical number that I can’t even calculate

it.”

Leslie replied solemnly, “Ten million dollars.”

When she heard that, Flora’s face went ashen, and she dropped the phone she had just picked up from the floor.

Besides losing her job, she suddenly had to carry the burden of paying back ten million dollars! She felt indignant about the situation.

Flora immediately came forward and testified against Eva.

“I’m innocent! Ms. Hanks was the one who asked me to arrange a meeting with Aurelia

at the hotel at 9:00 am. I still have the WhatsApp voice message she sent me!” Flora said.

no out.

She played the voice message, and Eva’s arrogant voice rang

“Flora, please schedule a meeting with Ms. Simmons for tomorrow at 9:00 am at the hotel of the photoshoot location,” said Eva.

After hearing that, Eva couldn’t take it anymore. She stood up, pointed at Flora, and yelled angrily, “Didn’t I tell you to get out? Get out!”

Flora was so frightened that tears welled up in her eyes. After being yelled at like that, she telt mortified. She ran out while covering her mouth.

Aurelia and Leslie glanced at each other. It seemed like they had successfully rift between Flora and Eva.

Although they had evidence that Kimberly had taken the wire, having Flora as a witness would leave Kimberly completely defenseless.

However, Floras was on Eva’s side. If they wanted to get Flora to talk, they would have to make Flora see Eva’s true colors.

Who would have thought that their bond wasn’t that strong after all? It was destroyed by a single WhatsApp message.

Leslie chucked the agreement to Eva and said, “It looks like we need to make some amendments. If that’s truly what Ms. Hanks had said, then IN Magazine should be held accountable.”

Eva was so enraged that her whole body was trembling. “Are you trying to deny

responsibility?”

Leslie remained silent as he cast a glance at Aurelia.
