Alicia came.

She looked at the mess on the ground and the dirty design drafts of Madelynn and Beatrice, and couldn't help but frown.
Without waiting for anyone else to speak, Selina stepped forward with a pained and indignant expression, accusing Bailee.
"Ms. Moreno, Bailee spilled coffee on Ms. Bradford and Beatrice's canvases!"
Alicia's face darkened as she turned to look at the anxious Bailee.
Bailee blushed and explained, "Ms. Moreno, I really didn't mean to, I do these things every day and have never made a mistake, everyone can vouch for me."
Those colleagues who had received her favor also came forward one after another.
"Ms. Moreno, Bailee indeed came first every day to help prepare coffee for everyone. She was careful and had never made any mistakes before. This time, it must have been an accident."
"Bailee used to be the most proactive in her work, and she had no complaints. She didn't have any bad intentions."

Everyone was defending Bailee, speaking one word after another.
This made Selina, who was accused by Bailee, feel extremely embarrassed.
A colleague who couldn't stand it added, "Some people don't go to their own positions and instead run to the office to do what?"
Selina was taken aback, wearing the same expression of grievance after being targeted."I... I am friends with Beatrice, I just wanted to show some concern for her, I'm sorry, it was my fault, I was wrong, you're right about me."
My colleague choked, her face turned pale, as if she had done something unforgivable to Selina Alicia looked at the noisy office, her brows furrowed deeply."Enough! Is this a market? What kind of talk is this?"
In an instant, everyone quieted down.
Alicia looked at Madelynn and Beatrice, rubbing her temples. "Do you two have remedy this?"
Madelynn glanced
any way to
glanced briefly at Amanda Huff, Alicia's assistant, behind her.
Amanda nodded.
She immediately smiled and said, "Ms. Moreno, don't worry, I can fix it." Alicia nodded and looked at Beatrice again.
"And you?"
"I... I tried my best," Beatrice said, her face pale and her voice weak.
Alicia, feeling unsure, still not convinced, thought for a moment and pointed towards Bailee. "Bailee, didn't you also do Nyasia's design before? Prepare yourself as well, for an additional option, an extra opportunity." 61 10
Okay, I'm sorry, everyone," Bailee lowered her head and apologized.
"Go get ready, Nyasia will be at the studio in an hour."
"Yes."
Everyone scattered and started to busy themselves.
Except for Madelynn.

She walked into the empty corridor, where Amanda had already been waiting.
Amanda handed over the USB drive and said with a faint smile, "Ms. Bradford is indeed clever, knowing to be prepared in advance. Your electronic manuscript is inside here."
Madelynn raised an eyebrow and took the thing, asking in a low voice, "Is this designer you found reliable? I don't want to get into any trouble."
Ms. Bradford, rest assured, they are all capable insiders in the industry. I have already spent money to take care of it. Being able to help Ms. Bradford is also her good fortune," Amanda said mysteriously. "Amanda, this time I really have to thank you. I have already arranged your brother's job, and I have also prepared some money for you separately."
"Thank you, Ms. Bradford."
After saying thank you, Amanda left with a smile.
Madelynn played with the USB flash drive in her hand and took a few steps forward, looking through the glass at Beatrice who was busy trying to fix something.
Idiot.
Since the embarrassment of the manor, she had no
more thoughts to design.
She knew that Amanda had met many people in the industry, both big and small, through Alicia. Why should she bother and exert so much effort like Beatrice when she can just spend money to get things done? In this world, as long as there is power and influence, even if what she designs looks like a piece of shit, it is still called an artwork by some people.
Madelynn walked gracefully and saw Selina hurrying past before she even entered the door "Stop!"
Selina stopped in her tracks and cautiously looked at Madelynn.
Seeing her so weak, Madelynn sneered.
"Why are you running? What happened to the coffee just now?"
"Sorry, Ms. Bradford, I had calculated the angle when I tripped Bailee, but who knew she stumbled in her high heels and ended up spilling the coffee on both of you," Selina explained cautiously. Madelynn tightly held the USB drive, anyway her goal had been achieved, and the process was no longer important.
e more careful in the future when you do things. I brought you in, but you're not even as good Bailee. At least she has colleagues to help speak for her. You got a free ride, look at you..."
*Sorry."
Selina nodded her head obediently, keeping her head down.

Madelynn couldn't be bothered with her nonsense, so she walked past her and entered the office.
A moment later, Selina slowly raised her gaze, her eyes filled with sharp thorns. Just as she turned around, she almost collided with Bailee.
Bailee didn't say anything and left directly, but halfway through, she suddenly turned back and smiled at Selina.
Selina felt a sudden tightness in her chest, but when she tried to confirm it, Bailee had already walked away. Illusion?
One hour later, the conference room.
One
Nyasia and Alicia exchanged a few greetings and then sat down.
"Let's get started, I have other things to attend to in a while."
"Um."
Alicia nodded and glanced at Bailee, who was leading the way.
Bailee stood up and handed over her design draft."Nyasia, Ms. Moreno, my design concept was rebirth, using jewelry that represents the element of fire for reverse setting, to enhance its depth..." Fire?
Beatrice was startled, and the pen slipped from her hand, rolling twice on the tabletop before falling to the ground.
She raised her eyes in disbelief, looking at Bailee's design, with whispers from breakfast at Camellia Manor echoing in her mind.
Bailee poured her some milk and told her to eat more.
"Beatrice, you were our great hero, and since Nyasia also chose you as the lead designer, how do you plan to design it?"
"Reborn from the ashes. I saw Nyasia staring at the pile of ashes, and she seemed quite content She had already become someone of this status, having seen countless jewels before. Surelyste would only buy them if she truly liked them." Because Nyasia and Alicia personally decided on Beatrice, Beatrice didn't think much about and simply expressed her thoughts.
I didn't expect...
When I came to my senses, Bailee had already finished speaking the closing remarks. "I felt that Nyasia's life should be reborn from the ashes, seeking freedom and indulgence." These words obviously struck a chord with Nyasia, as she stared at Bailee for a long time, as if she had just met Bailee all over again.
Nyasia laughed and said, "Ms. Moreno, there were many talented people here." Alicia also nodded in satisfaction and looked at Bailee with a hint of smile, then she pointed at Madelynn.

Madelynn, it's your turn."
"Yes."
When Madelynn got up, she cast a cold glance at Bailee.

I thought he was just a stupid person who only knew how to do odd jobs, but I didn't expect him to play a trick and act like a pig to eat a tiger.
Haha, wait until she finished tidying up Beatrice
Thinking of Beatrice, Madelynn became even more proud.
before tidying up Bailee.
One minute before entering the office, she saw Beatrice making modifications on a dirty sketch.
No matter how it is changed, garbage is still garbage.
She confidently took out a USB flash drive and looked at Beatrice's pale face, saying, "Luckily, I Srepared an electronic version."
Her design appeared on the screen.
Madelynn deliberately designed a necklace based on a camellia, as she always did. At the end, she smiled lightly at Nyasia and said, "The light boat has passed through countless mountains, and it can only be picked up after it is put down, right_Nyasia?" This old woman was humiliated at the manor.
Nyasia had to wear this disgusting necklace that mocked her, no matter how repulsive it was.
Who made her Caden's fiancée!
Nyasia's face remained unchanged, with even a hint of a smile at the corners of her eyes."Indeed, Ms. Bradford is right. I am also looking forward to your boat sailing through countless mountains."
Madelynn looked up and said, "I knew Nyasia would be satisfied."
Alicia seemed to have noticed and pursed her lips. "Madelynn, please sit down. Beatrice, it's your
turn."
Beatrice didn't move.
Madelynn looked concerned and said, "Beatrice, what's wrong with you? You haven't finished the design yet, have you?
you? You
You really let Nyasia down with your expectations
