After Madelynn's insinuation, the colleagues around the conference table all stared at Beatrice, including those who were eagerly waiting for a spectacle.
Beatrice slowly got up, leaning on the table, and said, "Sorry, my legs are a bit numb."
"Thank you for your concern, Ms. Bradford. I, like you, also prepared an electronic manuscript."
The conversation ended.
Madelynn's face froze for a moment as she stared straight at Beatrice, who took out a USB flash drive.

more intriguing.
Well, she took Beatrice's design idea.

Unless Beatrice had a burst of inspiration in the past hour, it was simply impossible for her to come up with any good designs.
Until the design on the screen was fully displayed, Bailee's pupils dilated, filled with disbelief.
Beatrice confidently explained, "My topic was... water."
"Everyone only knew about Nyasia's thunderous methods, but a rainstorm at the mansion showed me Nyasia's tenderness."
"So I designed this necklace with the state of raindrops falling as the basis. The necklace as a whole adopts an asymmetrical design, with pearls of varying sizes gradually connected, creating a gentle, elegant, and richly layered look."
The brooch was made of platinum, with smooth and flowing lines, like ribbons winding and surrounding it. Gradually changing pink and blue gemstones were set on it, with a central South Sea pearl highlighted. The color became lighter towards the edges, and at the end of the ribbons, there were droplet-shaped diamonds.
"Like dewdrops in the misty mountains. Can be worn separately or combined with a necklace."
After saying the last word, Beatrice glanced at Bailee and smiled faintly.
Bailee clenched her fist, her knuckles turning white, seemingly unsure of which step she had taken wrong.
The mistake was that she was too impatient.
While pretending to be a workplace rookie in front of Beatrice, I also bluntly pointed out that Madelynn was constantly targeting Beatrice.
Such a contradictory person must have a demon.
Moreover, Beatrice had already died once, so she did not believe in the sudden and unfamiliar
kindness.
So when Bailee congratulated her at the mansion and asked her about her design ideas, she still kept a guard up.
Rebirth from the ashes is just an appearance.
Boes a woman like Nyasia need to be reborn?

Don't forget, she was the merchant sitting at Caden's table.
She only needed one word, beautiful.
Bailee designed fire element jewelry and copied a set of beautiful words and appearances that would make anyone happy when they heard it.
Moreover, she had always behaved in a conventional manner, so her sudden outstanding performance naturally caught everyone's attention.
Then Beatrice went against the tide and suppressed that evil fire within her. either. Actually, Bailee didn't need this theme, and Beatrice's design wasn't that special
It was because Bailee was too eager to show off that she ended up being Beatrice's stepping stone. At the end, Nyasia and Alicia led the applause. Seatrice politely nodded and said, "Thank you."
She sat across from Bailee and Madelynn, resting her chin on her hand, with a bright and captivating smile.
A moment later, Alicia and Nyasia stood up simultaneously.
"We discussed it and decided to take a ten-minute break," Alicia said, leading Nyasia to her own office.
Colleagues also went busy with their own tasks.
Madelynn, and Madelynn, and Bailee.
The conference room was suddenly left with Beatrice,
Madelynn turned to Bailee and clapped her hands, "What a great performance, Bailee! I really underestimated you."
Bailee clasped her hands together and lowered her gaze, saying, "Ms. Bradford, I didn't know what you were talking about."
"Don't know? It's okay, all you need to know is that you lost to me again," Madelynn's gentle expression changed, and she arrogantly raised her eyebrows and looked at Beatrice, "You're the same."
Beatrice ignored her and sat quietly.
Ten minutes later, Alicia and Nyasia walked into the conference
Nyasia scanned the three people and finally settled her gaze on

Madelynn.
Bradford, I have decided to choose your design. Don't disappoint
"Yes, I will definitely not disappoint Nyasia."
Madelynn slowly got up, lightly nodded her head, and the smile on her lips was filled with sarcasm towards Nyasia.
She had said earlier that Nyasia could only choose her design.
Nyasia must have been furious when she appeared at various banquets wearing jewelry that symbolized her deceased husband and lover.
But what does it matter?
Who made her Caden's woman.
Bailee couldn't help but feel frustrated when she heard the result. "Impossible! Nyasia, how could

said, "What? Arc you questioning me?"
Bailee was taken aback and immediately shook her head, "No, I just thought Nyasia would choose Beatrice's design."
It would cause trouble.
Beatrice smiled and replied, "I respected Nyasia's choice, and I will continue to work hard in the future."
Nyasia relaxed her forehead and raised her hand to gesture as she said, "I have something to,do, so I'll leave now. We'll chat next time."
After Nyasia left, Alicia glanced at the three people.
Beatrice, come with me, the rest of you can go and busy yourselves."
Beatrice nodded and followed Alicia into the office.
After Alicia sat down, she picked up her cup and took a sip of coffee, while glancing at the calm Beatrice in front of her.
"I didn't expect you to be so calm, don't
to be so calm, don't you have anything you want to ask?"
"Beatrice didn't ask much about why Nyasia chose Madelynn. I believe Nyasia had her own
reasons."
Alicia nodded in satisfaction and said, "I brought you here to tell you that Nyasia has chosen your design, but I hope you can keep it a secret for now." "Okay."
"Go ahead," Alicia waved her hand.
After Beatrice left the office, she went straight to the pantry to pour herself a glass of water to
calm down.
I didn't expect it, but as soon as I went in, Bailee followed behind.
There was no one around, and Bailee stopped pretending as well.
"At the manor, were you deliberately saying those words to manipulate me?"
Beatrice took a sip of water while holding the cup and pretended innocently, "No, I was just sharing my thoughts with you."

"You brought me into the game, embarrassed me, are you happy? But don't forget, you also lost," Bailee gritted her teeth.
"Bailee, these past few days, the media has been flooded with reports about Mr. Caden and Madelynn. What do you think Nyasia will choose? You're too impatient, wanting me and Madelynn to fight against each other. You're trying to take advantage, do you really think Madelynn can become Mr. Caden's fiancée just by being gentle and considerate?"" Beatrice coldly snatched back her cup and turned around, preparing to

Bailee's tone suddenly softened, and she said helplessly, "Beatrice, I'm sorry, I couldn't help i either. I can't match your talent, nor can I compare to Madelynn's background. But I really want to stay in this circle, so I made a momentary mistake." Beatrice stopped and turned to look at her."Bailee, I don't need a cheap apology. But I'll give you a piece of advice, take care of yourself from now on."
Madelynn was not a good person.
She left after saying that.
Bailee glared resentfully at Beatrice's back.
Beatrice, you embarrassed me, and I will definitely pay you back twice as much!
Before she could even think of how to retaliate against Beatrice, she was retaliated against by Madelynn.

A large cup of iced coffee accidentally spilled onto Bailee's computer, causing almost all of Bailee's data to be ruined.
She screamed in panic, while Madelynn stood beside her with red eyes, apologizing.
"Bailee, I will replace your computer with a better one."
