Chapter 116 The Overtones Of Bianca Being Accused
Bianca had lunch with Sue in the staff cafeteria.
Yvonne only came to work after they were done with their lunch break.
"Sorry, I bought a tie for my boyfriend yesterday. There was traffic on the way when I sent it to him this
morning and traffic on the way to the office," Yvonne told her colleagues and sat down with a satisfied
smile on her face.
Bianca looked up at Yvonne.
Sue sent a message to Bianca and asked, ‘What’s the story behind Yvonne?'
Since Bianca did not want to inflict drama between Sue and Yvonne, she honestly said, ’Mr. Crawford’s
mother is fond of her and treats her like her future daughter-in-law. However, I'm not sure about the
specificity of her family background.'
Sue read Bianca's reply and raised her head to look at Bianca with surprise.
Bianca continued working after replying to Sue.
After a moment, it finally dawned on Sue. When she turned back to look at Yvonne, she saw that the
latter had started playing with her nails after putting down her bag. Sue thought to herself, 'This is such
a silly girl. How could Mr. Crawford be attracted to someone like her?'
Sue was certain that as long as Mr. Crawford still had his vision, he would not marry a rich girl like
Yvonne.
It was finally time to get off work.
It was a little after five o'clock when a group of people from the department walked behind the head of
department, leaving the building one after another.
Sue brought Bianca to her car.
As she put on her seat belt, Sue glanced out of her car into the distance. If we hadn’t gotten in as
quickly, I think Yvonne would've come over to talk to us. Not to me though, but you."
Bianca looked out of the car.
It was true. Yvonne was heading toward them, but when she saw Bianca getting into Sue’s car, she
frowned and turned back to her own car.
"Be careful, don't let this domineering rich girl fool you." Sue reminded Bianca.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBianca nodded.
Soon after Sue drove out, her phone rang.
"Hello?" Sue answered with her Bluetooth headset.
"Sue, is Bianca going with you? You'll have to turn around. The place we previously booked has been
canceled. Ms. Gideon has booked a more luxurious place. I’ll send the new address of the place to
you.’’
The head of department finished speaking and hung up.
Soon after, Sue received a message.
When Sue opened it, she saw the new location sent by the head of department and said with a smile, "I
see our rich girl is quite a generous person. How exciting! We’re going to the city's most exclusive high-
end private club.”
The car made a U-turn at the intersection.
Sue raised her eyebrows and said to Bianca, "When we get there, order the most expensive thing on
the menu, alright? You need to learn to have fun when it's the right time. After seven years of working
in the company, this is the only time I've gotten this lucky."
When they arrived at the private club, Sue parked her car.
Each department had their own private room, and the respective rooms were sent to everyone's phone.
Sue went upstairs with Bianca and entered their department's private room.
Yvonne had arrived at the room long before them and was chatting with several young female
colleagues in their department.
"You girls look so pure and kind. When I was studying abroad, I met many gold-diggers. Whenever they
knew about parties where the rich kids went, they would dress up on purpose, thinking that they’re so
pretty and would pretend to bump into the rich young masters. They always wore cheap clothes and
brought imitation bags, though." Yvonne took a sip of water before continuing, "However, I never
exposed them."
A young female colleague echoed, "Von, you have a very good heart. If it was me, I would have
exposed them so they would feel embarrassed of themselves.”
Yvonne smiled softly and said enthusiastically, "There's also another kind of girl who I find is the most
difficult to deal with. She’s the ultimate gold- digger but pretends to be a simple girl. She'll wear jeans
and T-shirts when she goes to the rich districts. She acts all pitiful and doesn't wear makeup because
she wants to show how natural she is, but she always manages to deceive one or two rich men without
taste."
"Seriously?" someone exclaimed.
"Of course, some people like to show off while some like to pretend to be humble." Yvonne finished
speaking and gave a pointed glance at Bianca.
Sue sat on the sofa as she listened to what Yvonne said, staring at the latter's expression.
After working in the workplace for many years, she could easily see through the overtones of Yvonne.
She was obviously referring to Bianca.
"If a simple girl catches the eye of a rich man, it shows that she has her uniqueness." Sue bravely went
over and sat down beside Yvonne.
Yvonne sneered, "What uniqueness? If you compare two people from different backgrounds,
academically and wealth wise, they're far too different. The only thing that the girl has going for herself
is probably just her pretty face."
Sue was not going to give it a rest until she pissed off Yvonne. "It's mainly because girls look so good
these days. It's really amazing, especially like the girls you mentioned. Girls who don't use makeup and
look beautiful naturally, I think they're just so rare and awesome."
Yvonne's face darkened with anger!
She gritted her teeth and kept her mouth shut after that!
The head of their department was a woman.
After listening to their conversation for a bit, she knew it was just mindless gossip.
The head of their department decided to ignore Sue who had for some reason, decided to provoke an
influential person like Yvonne. She did not try to get involved and pretended that she did not hear
anything.
Although Yvonne was a brainless idiot, idiots were still humans who laughed and cried.
As the head of the department, all she needed to do was to make Yvonne happy at work.
She looked back, trying to give Sue a hint to not offend her in case it backfired and ended up hurting
the entire department. If Yvonne filed a complaint, she would be the one to bear all the consequences.
"Everyone, attention, please. I'd like to say a few words," the head of department used a microphone
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand told everyone.
The music in the room was so loud that no one could hear each other unless they shouted.
"Where are the drinks? Who's getting them?" the head of department asked again when she saw that
the alcohol was running low.
Jean took the initiative and stood up. "I'll go. I'll also ask the waiters to get enough glasses for us."
The head of department nodded her head approvingly. She very much liked Jean's efficiency.
Jean counted the total number of people in their department and went out.
Five minutes later, several waiters came in one after another.
The waiters brought in glasses of champagne and passed them around the room.
Everyone got a glass.
The head of department said a few words, though they were mainly about welcoming Yvonne's arrival.
From her overtones, it was clear that Yvonne seemed like a special addition into the company but the
specificity of her family background was not disclosed publicly.
After having her horns tooted, Yvonne smiled elegantly with her lips closed. She already had a plan.
After she became a permanent staff member and got married to Luke, the first thing she planned to do
was get rid of Sue.
She did not like anyone who was friends with Bianca.
Finally, the head of department also presented Bianca and Jean who had been working for a full month
with them, saying that they showed good performance at work.
’Come, let's give a toast." The head of department raised her glass.
Everyone toasted, clinked, and finished their drinks.
After the head of department finished her drink, she laughed and praised Yvonne again, saying, "Enjoy
yourselves, everyone! However, I'd like to thank Yvonne again for such a generous treat."
On the other side.
In Crawford Manor.
At the dinner table, Louis had investigated thoroughly the matter regarding Luke and Bea. He softly
reminded Luke and said, "I heard that the design department's party tonight will mainly involve drinking.
Aren't you afraid that Bea will drink too much and be taken advantage of by that scumbag, Jean?"
