Chapter 460
Chapter 460
Kieran flung a stack of documents at Danica's face in midst of his anger. The papers were scattered everywhere on the bed and the floor. There were files and various photos among the materials.
The words on the papers were written so closely together. Danica wasn't able to see them clearly, but those photos were definitely visible to her. Those photos... They were all secretly taken when the hotel's door was opened!
She grabbed the photos and angrily tore them into pieces. Her face complexion paled in a flash, while her expression became gloomy.
This was probably the most inappropriate and impulsive thing she had ever done in her life.
She had been muddle-headed from day to day ever since she stepped into the hospital.
This was supposed to be a miraculous opportunity. She had planned and plotted every course of action.
If it wasn't for Alicia's accident, everything would've gone smoothly! Even God was on her side, and she hadn't needed to meddle with anything. Caven had followed her upstairs nearly at the same time, and someone even booked a room for her.
Everything was meant to go well for her, yet she was careless. Consequently, it was destroyed by the smallest bit of omission.
Danica was filled with remorse. She should've placed more effort into it and given her a few more beatings.
Otherwise, it would've been Alicia who was lying here in the dark. And Danica wouldn't have...
However, she still didn't understand why she had fallen into the trap despite having taken the antidote.
The most absurd part was no one had bothered to visit her other than Hallie and Chet. Moreover, the two acquaintances who had come to see her were there to warn her.
She also wasn't expecting Kieran to be furious the first time he visited.
As he saw her reaction, Kieran was so mad that he stamped his feet.
He bellowed, "What's the use of tearing them now? You're really dumb! Just take a look at it yourself and tell me, how big of a deal was it? How many surveillance cameras were there in the hotel? People were coming in and out together with Frederick, yet you were actually bold enough to take the risk?" "Are you brainless? Didn't you have any other tricks up your sleeve? I swear, it's always the women that put us in trouble!"
"Do you know how much your careless action has cost us this time? All the goods that just arrived at the port were discovered! It was worth tens of millions of dollars! We even got the original pickup list! We were just a day away from getting the goods!"
"It was all because of you! You're hopeless! You just keep messing things up!"
"Besides that, what's going on in the West? All the bids that were placed had failed! Now, their people are seeking revenge on me and they want me to be responsible for the losses!"
"They've even shown up on my doorsteps! Can't you use your brain to think? What's the point of concentrating on Alicia? Even if she's gone, there'll definitely be another one! Don't you know better ways to fool Frederick? You could act sick or even pregnant for all I care! Even if you're only a secretary that stays by his side, shouldn't your salary be at least a million dollars? Would he really mistreat you? For God's sake, how did I end up with such a useless daughter like you?"
Kieran spoke seriously as he rambled on.
"I'm warning you, don't ever try to get on Alicia's bad side again! Our goods were confiscated this time, and it must have been related to Frederick. Chet already mentioned that if Alicia was harmed any further, they will blame it on us and we'll have to go down with her. Don't ever provoke that woman in the future!"
"If you do, you should at least be smart about it. Don't you think she can track you down with all the traces you left behind?"
"Stop rushing ahead blindly from now on! Hurry up and think of another way to earn some money! Otherwise, in the future, you won't be able to afford to live in the advanced ward!"
Flinging his hand in exasperation, Kieran stepped out of the door angrily and slammed the door shut with a loud bang.
The bed had trembled faintly. Danica closed her eyes and tears began rolling down like raindrops. From the start, he didn't even bother to ask her how she was holding up...
Not long after, Camilla peeked her head in from the door, but she didn't come in. Instead, she turned around and left.
After she sat in a daze for a while, Danica slowly lifted the quilt and got out of the bed. She changed into a red dress and then exited the
room.
In the next two days, the news of Which's Fashion Gathering covered the headlines of major media fashion pages. Besides the images of their new products, the biggest one was that all products werez bought off by Mr. Clements. It didn't matter whether they were single products or limitededition, products; they were all sold out. Even sizes that weren't suitable were out of stock.
As a result, almost everyone knew that Mr. Clements had a companion. In order to please her, he wasn't shy and had bought the entire thing for her.
Anyway, she was anonymous and
the image captured of her was just a
shadow. When Alicia saw it, she didn't take it seriously. After all, someone bought a bottle of wine that
cost hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars. These clothes and ornaments were enough for her to wear for two whole years.
Every time she saw the photos, especially with both Sebastian and Kianna who were in the photo's background, she felt disgusted by them. Yet, she also couldn't help but felt very happy deep down.
She had to admit that she was satisfied with
Frederick's treats.
After work that day, Alicia made another trip to East Bannpool for her company's official business.
In the private room, she handed in the materials for the translations and then proceeded to explain it to several guests. After discussing all the details, she got up and was ready to leave.NôvelDrama.Org content.
She said to her business client, "Miss Andrews, I'll leave first if we're done for today. I will send a revised note to your mailbox tomorrow so that it will be convenient for you to check and make a comparison."
"That sounds great. I'm sorry that I've troubled you. You really helped me a lot!"
The two shook hands. As soon as Alicia turned around, she was immediately held back by the fashionable middle-aged woman.
"Ah, Miss Blanchard, I almost forgot! These cosmetics are for everyone here. It's not expensive, but it's merely an end product. Take it as hand cream or something like that. It's a pure natural handmade product. Please don't be shy!"
She glanced around from the corner of her eye and noticed that each person had a box with them. There were also some bags in the corner, which seemed to be gifts. They were prepared for everyone, so Alicia didn't hold back.
"Thank you, Miss Andrews!"
After a smooth end to her work, she walked out of the East Bannpool and cheerfully swung the gift box in her hand. Alicia felt that she was blessed, and her face was full of happiness.
Right when she arrived beside her car, a random figure suddenly popped out and threw a handful of blue enchantress on her.
"What's wrong with you, Jeremy?"
For a moment, Alicia was taken aback and accidentally tossed the gift box away. In an instant, a dazzling golden light flashed in the air. As she bent over to pick up the gift box, someone unexpectedly grabbed her wrist.
Jeremy spoke disdainfully, "Did he give you this again? The Lotus rose oil which is more expensive than gold? When did you become so vain?" "What are you talking about?"
She wasn't paying attention to it at first, but then she noticed the golden words engraved on the cosmetic gift box from her client. It stated "Bulgaria", and it was also labelled "Rose essence oil" in the corner behind it.
This was a cosmetic box set! Alicia wasn't expecting there to be a precious essential oil in it. However, those gift boxes had been carelessly thrown on the ground and treated like garbage.
