Bride To Be Not Me (Janice and Simon)

Chapter 78

janice walked out of the pantry and told Heidi as she left, “Considering the confidentiality of crochet designs, it's best to leave this place as soon as possible, Ms. Ryan.”

Lima passed by and did not bother to spare Heidi a single glance.

Heidi clenched her fists and was trembling with anger. "How dare you all!

It was the first time she received such cold treatment. She wanted to tight back, but she had no right to do so when she wasn't even officially hired yet.

She had no choice but to pin her hopes on Barbara and pray that the latter could persuade Edward to tire panice, the liar.

Upon leaving Prosper Stitch Group, she received a call from Sumon. His tone was restrained yet clearly frustrated. “Ms. Ol-Ryan Didn't you say you'd help me handle this lawsuit? Why did the prosecutor inform me that there are just seven or eight transactions in my account entrusted to me by others?

“They're accusing me of illegally profiting from the bank accounts and have completely frozen my assets!”

The freeze used to be temporary, but now it was permanent!

Simon knew nothing about legal intricacies, and all he knew was that the result was unacceptable. He'd thought Janice had just been throwing a her money. He'd rejected her in hopes of making her yield and compromise.

But now it was clear she was serious.

Even when consulting his lawyer, Simon sensed the lawyer couldn't come clean with him, so he assumed that the few major transfers seemed to be connected to Janice.

His mind jumped to conclusions; Janice must've been involved with Edward long before this. It had to be some other big shot if not Edward. How else could she have acquired such a large sum of money?

At this point, Simon no longer cared that Janice had secured the money for him in the past. All he cared about was the immediate loss of his assets.

Heldi frowned. "Let me ask around."

After hanging up, she called her lawyer, Eden Norton. "Mr. Norton, what's going on with Simon's case?

Eden sighed. "It was initially manageable, Ms. Ryan. However, the other party submitted some confidential evidence to the prosecution.

"There's nothing I can do, and all I can say is that I've done my best to keep the account frozen. Mr. Fitzgerald's main request was to ensure the money wasn't returned to the

Simon would rather lose the money than let Janice have it

Heidi pressed further. "Am I not allowed to know anything elther?"

“No one can. The other party invoked a confidentialityclause." This meant that the plaintiff's identity was protected.

Heidi gritted her teeth and relented. "Fine. I understand."

At Prosper Stitch Group, Harrison reported his work and said, "It's done, Mr. Moore. Simon's accounts are frozen, and I doubt Refined Thread Co. can hold out much longer." "Who helped him?" Edward asked.

Harrison hesitated briefly before replying, "I think it's. Ms. Byan."

Heldi? Anyone could see that Heidi held a grudge against Janice, and everyone knew why.

After wrapping up his work, Edward appeared at the Product Division office,

"It's Mr. Moore?"

"Good evening, Mr. Moore!"

It was only after he left that the statt whispered, "Why is Mr. Moore here?"

"Didn't you see him head to Ms. Smith's office?"

Janine was carefully packaging her crochet design to store it in the company's secure vault when a knock came at the door

"Come on in." Hearing footsteps and no greeting, she waited several seconds before turning around and was startled to see Edward standing at the door. “E-Edward?” Edward closed the door behind him and sat. Then, he gratured for her to do the same.

Janice set down her crochet design and sat across from him.

"Thave nothing to do personally with dividi. We just lived in the same neighborhood as kids," he began Then came his second statement. “Regardless of why Heidi targets you, I'll always side with you, Janjee.*
