Chapter 19
“You’re going against me because I’m the president now! You are the designer and have the right to purchase what you want. You’re so nitpicking to seek personal revenge! You’re doing all of this to take back the company!”
Kimberly was making Angela’s reasonable decision out to be the result of narrow–mindedness and jealousy and abusing her power to give others a
hard time.
She was such a scheming bitchi
The two hadn’t lowered their voices, so the argument attracted the attention of many employees.
A man’s voice came from the door. “You all have finished your work?”
The employees watching at the door immediately dispersed.
Everyone knew that Hank was trusted by Pierre and that Kimberly was Pierre’s girlfriend. They also knew that Angela had been specially invited by
Pierre.
Although they were eager to see where the argument would lead, they didn’t dare to stay.
Angela cast a glance at Hank at the door and sneered
“It turns out that you’ve got help. But I still have to tell you that Gem is a high–end brand, and those raw materials are not good enough
At the door. Hank was very embarrassed. He wasn’t here to help Kimberly!
He was just here to get Angela’s ID card to book a ticket for her on his boss’s orders
He hurriedly explained his purpose. He didn’t want Angela to misunderstand him.
After working for Pierre for almost 10 years, Hank had already noticed that Pierre treated Angela differently than he treated other women.
Kimberly widened her eyes, which were filled with anger, jealousy, and surprise.
“Where is Pierre taking her?”
“Miss Kimberly Simpson, Mr. Louise only asked me to get Miss Angela Simpson’s ID card. He didn’t say anything else. Why don’t you ask him yourself?
After saying that, Hank left with a smile and Angela’s ID card.
He couldn’t wait to leave. The two women didn’t look like sisters at all. Instead, they looked like enemies!
But actually, they were indeed not sisters. It was said that Angela was not the biological daughter of Kimberly’s father.
But Hank had no time to gossip about it. Anyway, someone was already investigating the Simpson family and Angela’s two children.
Hank’s soft rejection angered Kimberly even more. She began another round of questioning Angela.
“Angela Simpson, you know that Pierre is my boyfriend, but you still dare to seduce him! How can you be so shameless, just like your mother!”
As she spoke, she made threatening gestures to scratch Angela
Although Angela had been on guard against her, the back of her hand was scratched.
She glanced at Kimberly with disgust. Her father and Anna had spoiled Kimberly since she was a child, which was why she was so used to throwing her weight around.
Now, with Pierre to back her up, Kimberly was even more domineering
But Angela wouldn’t tolerate her.
“Listen, not everyone likes your boyfriend! Besides, you should go back and ask your mother who the really shameless person is!” Angela retorted.
Kimberly was stunned. She had no idea that Angela would mention that her mother had been a homewrecker. This was her weak spot.
“What do you meant You’re the illegitimate daughter, not me! You’re the bastard! Your mother is shameless!”
“Don’t you know what I meant Do you want me to
ine to tell the truth?”
Chapter 19
Angela sneered at the stupid woman in front of her.
“Tell me.
why did Pierre ak Mr. Millan to get your ID card?”
Kimberly’s intuition told her that there was something going on between Angela and Pierre.
Angela sneered. “Go ask your boyfriend. I’m just an employee. He’s the boss.
fiss Simpson, if there’s nothing else. please leave.”
“And Miss
Angela did not give Kimberly any chance to refute and directly asked her to leave.
While they were arguing, Pierre received a phone call from Hugh. “Pierre, Grandpa’s 80th birthday party is this Sunday. Come early”
“Get to the point,” said Pierre.
“Why are you so direct? No wonder you’ve been single so long replied Hugh.
But he soon realized that this was not the case and continued, “No, you are not single. You once fell in love with Kimberly.
Tm hanging up.”
“No, Pierre, please don’t. I have something serious to tell
Il you”
Hugh knew Pierre well and quickly said. “My sister said that she wants the new jewelry designer you hired blacklisted.”
“Why?”
Pierre could not imagine how the troublemaker Angela had offended the princess of the Wilbur family
Hugh told him what had happened and asked, “Didn’t you investigate what kind of person she was before you hired her?”
“Let’s not talk about what kind of person Anthea Cullen is. Your sister is spoiled and short–tempered. You know that, right?”
Hugh was shocked by what Pierre said
He could understand if Pierre refused to blacklist the designer for economic reasons. But why was he defending her?
This was interesting. It seemed he needed to go to Cem to see this designer.
“Ophelia is indeed a bit childish, but how old is she? She’s just a teenager Hugh was still creating his sister like a child.
“And how old is the designer? She’s an adult, but she argued with a child, not to mention that she slapped the saleswoman first”
Hugh spared no effort to protect his sister.
Pierre didn’t say anything. It seemed normal for Angela to slap someone.
Kimberly had lost more than once when trying to fight her.
“Pierre, Ophelia has treated you as her own brother since she was little,”
n to play the sympathy card.
Hugh began to
Everyone thought that Pierre was cold and aloof, but as his childhood friend, Hugh knew that he was actually very protective of his own people.
“I’ll talk to her.”
His answer surprised Hugh again.
At this point, Hugh thought he had to see Angela at Gem tomorrow.
But before he arrived at Gem, Angela had gone to the supplier company.
The company was called Halcyon, its main products were gem, and its headquarters were in Tervais,
It was said that the founders deliberately chose Tervais as their headquarters because it was a place with a developed economy and convenient transportation. More importantly, the international gem–cutting masters were gathered in Tervais.
Angela showed up with the purchasing munager.

Chapter 19
Because of the many years of cooperation, the communication was very smooth. Angela demanded to see the rough gemstones soon after she arrived. In fact, she had come to Halcyon many times before with her father to buy gemstones five years ago when she was the design director.
As a designer. Angela knew that Gem, with its focus on original designs, needed raw materials that would bring out the creativity of the designers,
Angela began her careful selection in the area where the raw gemstones were kept. Gem’s focus was on high–quality gem, the other gemstones were secondary.
She chose a few large pieces of raw gem gemstones, some amber ones, and a red coral of excellent quality.
She also selected a few more uncut stones and asked the purchasing manager to pay the bill.
Suddenly, her phone rang
She rejected the call
when sh
she saw it was from an unknown number.
But the person called again, so she had no choice but to answer it. “Hello!”
“Angie, your daddy knows that you’re back and wants your whole family to come home for dinner. He misses you very much. He’s very happy to hear that you’re married and have children”
Angela pursed her lips. It was
as Anna callin
calling, still trying to maintain her image as a good stepmother.
When she got no response, Anna continued, “Angie, I know you have had conflicts with your father in the past, but he still loves you, not to mention that so many years have passed. He is not in good health, so you should come back and see him.
“Okay, I’ll go home today. Angela agreed in the end.
When she had gone abroad before, her father had just had an operation
They hadn’t seen each other in five years.
It was time for her to go back and check on him. She wondered how he was doing and wanted to ask him the question that had been on her mind for the past five years.
