Chapter 85
“The television station can’t and won’t tolerate such a mistake, whether it was committed by a host or
an artist. Juniper has made such a joke out of herself and the station, so even if the director of the
department wants to protect her, everything he does will be in vain. They won’t be able to keep her;
that interview has marked the end of her career.”
“That sounds reasonable too.”
“Come on, let’s head home already.”
Hesper gave off a faint smile, and the group of three disappeared from the entrance of the television
station.
And at the same time.
Rickard just finished watching the entire interview too, but when he heard that Matthew Lane was
Hesper’s elder brother, his pupils constricted instantly.
“So, she’s been with him all this time?”
‘I didn’t know him when I met him at the hospital back then and I only learned about him by accident
later on. I never thought that Hesper would be by his side all this while.’
“Mr. Duval, the young lady claimed that Matthew Lane is her brother. Did she mean it literally, or did
she become one of the Lanes for real?” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Rickard pondered for a moment. “Where are we at with the matter that I asked you to investigate?”
“Our men arrived in Emperion a while back. I think we’ll get news really soon.”
Rickard nodded, and his gaze looked dim.
Back in the television station.
Juniper was packing her belongings at her workstation. She had always been the center of everyone’s
attention and admiration in the department, so how could she bear such grievances? The more she
thought about it, the more infuriated and glum she became, and her eyes turned bloodshot.
The colleagues sitting around her saw that she was crying and said sarcastically, “Someone’s made
such a huge mess but is shameless enough to sob around here. I really can’t understand what she’s
thinking. She’s always been so arrogant and boastful about her achievement, so why would she need
us to deal with the aftermath of her stupidity?”
Juniper’s career path had been very smooth sailing in the past few years, and she had often stepped
on others in order to climb to where she was today, so all the grudges that her colleagues had been
holding in exploded at once, turning Juniper into a punching bag that was hung in the middle of the
office
“Yeah, I told you before that a daughter of a filthy rich family like her. would not put much effort into her
work. And whenever she commits a grave mistake, she’ll just quit her job, go back home, and inherit
the family’s property, so why would she care about our life and death?”
“Thank God that someone’s finally leaving now. We can finally get some peace.”
“That’s enough!” Juniper yelled sternly.
But those people had been holding deep grudges against her for a very long time, and now that she
was leaving, they did not have to care about her feelings anymore.
“So what if we still haven’t gotten enough of it? We’re not as bold as you; we don’t have the guts to do
something like that. Plus, you’re the one who’s caused this mayhem. What makes you think you’re in
the
position to stop us from talking about it?”
“Shut up!” Angry, Juniper grabbed the pillow beside her and threw it at the colleague.
‘I’ll take it from anyone in this office other than this slut. Who does she think she is? She’s just an
ordinary, insignificant employee? What right does she have to talk to me like that?’
However, the woman was not someone to be trifled with. She threw the pillow back at Juniper, not
willing to show any trace of weakness.
Juniper was not paying attention for a split second and got smacked in the face. While she got hit, her
long eyelashes poked into her eyes, and she gasped in pain.
“B*tch, you actually dare to hit back at me?” Juniper was furious and rushed forward, wanting to strike
the woman.
At this moment, the director let out an enraged roar. “Hey, enough is enough! Don’t you two think we’re
in quite enough of a mess now? And Juniper, I told you to go home, didn’t I? So why are you still
here?”
Juniper bit her lips tightly. If she did not know that the director had. very important people supporting
him from behind, she might even have scolded him too.
She grabbed her handbag, left everything else behind, turned around, and left.
After leaving the television station, Juniper stood in front of the building for a while and then gave
Sophia a call.
“Hey, where are you…?”
