Chapter 967 She Had No Feelings For Percy
Nina looked at her and asked with a bright smile on her face, "What's the matter?"
Bianca smiled and replied, "It's nothing. It’s just that you should be more mindful in situations like these. I don’t want Mr. Mallory to misunderstand."
She felt bad that Steven affected their relationship.
Nina said cheekily, "Don't worry, not every man is a piece of trash like Steven." She muttered in her heart, 'Who is Percy to misunderstand anything?' She had no feelings for Percy.
Sue and Shireen knocked on the door and walked in. Both of them were holding their laptops.
Nina waved her hand and said, "I'll go prepare for my meeting."
Sue watched Nina close the door and asked curiously, "Ms. Rayne, what does Ms. Langdon need to prepare for?" "A business meeting. Sit down." Bianca gestured to the chairs opposite of her.
Sue and Shireen sat down.
Bianca went straight to the point. "Our company has secured the partnership with St. Heckler Hotel. I want you two to take charge of the design. Do you have any concerns?"
Sue had been in the workplace for many years, so she had no objections and said, "I have no problem with it."
Shireen was a little surprised and said, "Ms. Rayne, this project is a huge one. I'm still a newbie in the firm, you..." "Your design concept is unique. I've seen the plans you designed for our clients. I believe in
you, and Sue will be there to guide you. There's no need to worry." Bianca expressed her trust in Shireen and believed that she was making the right choice.
Shireen was moved by Bianca's trust in her. Since Bianca had said so, she happily accepted the responsibility. "I'll do my best on this project!"
She was considered a newcomer and had less than one year of working experience. Shireen was honored to be able to participate in such a big project with Sue.
"Great." Bianca nodded with satisfaction and then exhorted, "The developer has given us plenty of time. You can take your time and discuss the theoretical plan before you start with the design. Although we're not that big of a company, you're free to scout for the manpower you need. Any questions?" "No." Sue was the first to answer. After working in T Corporation for so many years, she was calm when faced with new projects, no matter how big or small.
Bianca turned on the projector and said, "Okay, let's have a meeting now to discuss the basic design concepts." "Okay." Sue turned on her laptop and the recorder.
Halfway through the meeting, there was a loud noise outside. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Bianca stopped talking and listened to the noise.
"Nina! Where's Nina?!" An annoying female voice sounded from outside.
"Who's that?" Sue frowned.
"It's Nina's mother," Bianca replied faintly. She recognized the voice and stood up. "I'll check it out." "I’ll go too." Sue followed her. The relationship between the three of them was more than that of colleagues. They all sincerely cared about each other.
Bianca pushed open the door of the office, only to see Nina with her back facing them. She was trying to persuade her mom. "Mom, please leave."
Anna immediately noticed Bianca, whom she had not seen for a long time. She was furious when she noticed how great Bianca looked and recalled that she sent Jean to jail. She refused to back down and shouted, "Why are you asking me to leave? You're never home! Do you think you can ignore us just because you have a great job? Nina, I'm telling you, don't even think about it! Your dad and I worked so hard to raise you. Now that you're living a good life, how could you be so unfilial to us? I'll let everyone in your company know the kind of person you are!"
Nina was tearing up. She thought that her mom was just making empty threats previously. She did not expect that Anna would actually show up in her office.
Anna favored Jean and often said that he needed to eat and dress well so that he would not lose the respect that he deserved.
However, Nina was nothing but an ATM for Anna.
Nina could not help herself and yelled, "Haven't you caused enough trouble? This is a public place. You’ll be kicked out by the security guards if you continue to disrupt my colleagues' work."
When Anna heard this, she furiously said, "You dare to have them kick me out? What did I do? I'm here to ask you for money because your father and I are starving. We can't even afford a simple meal. How can you say things like that?"
Bianca could no longer stay on the sidelines. She was well aware of Nina's situation; it was nothing like Anna had just described.
Nina was filial and gave most of her wages to help her family, but Anna was a big spender and was never satisfied no matter how much Nina gave her.
Bianca stepped forward and said, "Aunt Anna, this is my company. Nina has some work to attend to in a while. Would you like to go to the reception room for a cup of tea?"
As soon as Bianca stepped forward to help Nina, Anna's entire body was in discomfort as she pointed to Bianca's nose and screamed, "Don’t act nice! I know what you're thinking. Nina will leave the moment I step out. I'm telling you, I'm going to get my living expenses today. Otherwise, I won't leave. Nina, how can you be so dumb? This woman sent your brother to jail, how can you still work for her?"
Bianca was speechless. Everyone knew why Jean went to jail.
He did so many bad things that were against the law! However, Anna refused to listen to logic and insisted that it was all Bianca's fault. She would take every chance to mention it whenever she saw Bianca, hoping to make her feel guilty.
Bianca did nothing wrong though, so why would she feel guilty?
Bianca became more and more disgusted with Anna's behavior. If she were not Nina's mother, she would have called for the security guards.
Sue could no longer bear it. She knew Jean and exactly the kind of person he was. The things he did at the beginning had also made many female employees in T Corporation disgusted with him. She stepped forward and said, 'Madam, please be mindful of your words. When did Ms. Rayne frame your son? Your son’s lawlessness was all over the newspapers. Ms. Rayne did nothing."
When Anna saw someone helping Bianca, she immediately thought of her as the enemy and said, "Bianca seduced my son and when she got together with Luke Crawford, she abandoned him and put him in jail. That's the truth! My son was framed by this woman! Stop lying!"
Sue rolled her eyes and was about to drag Anna back down to reality but before she could say anything, Nina yelled, "It was Jean who betrayed Bea and cheated on her with that b*tch, Marie. They even have kids! As Jean's sister, I’m ashamed to talk about what he did in public. Besides, I didn't swindle your deposit, Marie did. I don't owe you anything. The money I've given you is enough for you to live the next half of your life prosperously, but you continue to spend money recklessly and get yourself into more and more debts. The debts I have now are all because of you!"
