Heidi looks just like Paolo, right down to the blood type. Just don’t mention this in front of him. You know how fiercely protective he gets.” “When the Campbells saw lan blind in one eye and limping, and they ctowanting to call off the engagement, | should have cut ties with them right then and there.

Monday morning.

Clara had just arrived at the office when she spotted Nicole packing up her things. She approached with an icy demeanor. “Nicole, have you never regretted betraying me?” Nicole's pale face slowly lifted. Her eyes revealed an undeniable ferocity. “Clara, what are you so proud of? Your success is due to nothing more than a pretty face and hooking up with Mr. Hayes’ bed.” “Do you think you're better than me? You got everything by selling yourself. Without Mr. Hayes patronage, you'd be nothing. You're just like your mother, selling your body for 1/2 11:50 money! Her words were venomous, and her eyes were nearly bleeding with fury She was no less than Clara in any aspect. Why did Clara have what she didn’t? Why did Mr. Hayes fancy Clara and never spare Nicole a glance? Nicole's final words but Clara deeply. With a swift motion, Clara slapped her across the face. Her voice was cold as ice. ‘Believe me, once you walk out that door, no company will dare to hire you.” “Clara, don’t bullywith your power!” “I don’t need power to make your life a living hell. Believe it?” Clara had never been so brazen. Her eyes sparkled with a rare defiance as she stepped closer to Nicole.

Terrified, Nicole stumbled backward. “Clara, you're ruthless. Just you wait!” After saying that, Nicole grabbed her belongings and fied in disarray. Clara stood there, feeling a chill run through her.
