Enemies were bound to meet on a narrow road.
When Brycen heard Scarlett greet Caroline, he thought that they two were friends, and the smile on his face deepened. "Ms. Reed, you are friends?" However, when Caroline heard Brycens question, she becmore embarrassed and unhappier.
Devin had really broken up with her that day.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLater, she tried several times to plead with him to make up, but failed. So, Caroline had no choice but to find the next target with the three million.
She had worked in Oschane Corperation for three years, and Brycen was satisfied with her performance. Besides, Brycen had always been generous to his employees. If they succeeded in cooperating with Scarlett, Caroline would get a bonus.
But if they failed, and if Brycen knew that she had offended Scarlett, not only could Caroline not get the bonus, but also she would risk being fired.
Taking stock of the situation, Caroline knew that it was impossible for her to be together with Devin again, so she must secure her job.
She couldn't let herself sink into a plight where she lost her job and had no opportunity to hook up with a rich man.
But she really didn't know how to deal with the conflict between her and Scarlett, as her fate was at Scarlett's mercy. If Scarlett let go of the past, Caroline would be fine.
After Brycen finished speaking, he looked at Caroline. "Since you and Ms. Reed are friends, why haven't you mentioned it? | don't even know how you made friends with Ms. Reed" Caroline could hardly smile at Brycen. "Uh...

How embarrassing it was! However, Scarlett behaved as if nothing had happened. Smiling, she and Katherine glanced at each other tacitly.
Katherine said, "Mr. Howard, Ms. Reed is quite busy. Let's get to the point quickly." Unfortunately, it was Caroline who gave the presentation.
After such an embarrassing thing happened, Caroline found it difficult to fake a smile and keep calm.
Consequently, Caroline performed badly. Before Scarlett spoke, Brycen had already criticized Caroline coldly.
"What are you doing? If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me. Why do you force yourself to explain the plan?" Then Brycen looked at Scarlett with an apologetic expression on his face. "Ms.
Reed, I'm sorry. Caroline has got sick, so she didn't explain the plan very well. How about | ask my secretary to explain it to you again?" Scarlett raised her lips and glanced at Caroline. "Miss Moody indeed looks weak today, and she was not as talkative as that day. Though her introduction is a bit badly organized, | can still understand it in general. After all, we speak the slanguage." "| am busy and had no tfor a second introduction."
