Sure enough, Viola gave her an evil look, then proceeded to apologise. âSorry, I will watch out next time.â
âViola, donât think all the spotlights are on you.â Queena said. âYou should remember how you came to join this team, and it was because you were diligent and hard working that we kept you here.
Viola quickly continued to explain herself. âQueena, I really am hard working and diligent, this was just a small error...â
Queena gestured her to stop taking.
âViola, when you are focused, you truly are hard working, I donât deny this. But when there are distractions, you allow yourself to get distracted and get completely carried away.â
Then, Queena made a decision. âYou are not suited to staying in my team."
Hearing these words, Viola became frantic, and begged, âQueena, please, I didnât do it on purpose, please give me another chance.â
Queena put on a âNot negotiableâ look and turned and left. Andrea tried to slip out the door by following Queena, but was stopped by Viola.
Everyone else emptied out of the meeting room quickly, obviously not wanting to participate in the ugly scene that is sure to follow.
Andrea felt her head swell. This was really unfair, she obviously hadnât done anything. Being targeted by other people without it being clear exactly what she was being accused of.
âMs Johnson, if you have something to say, please say so quickly, as I still have work to do.â she said courteously.
âYouâre just trying to show off, arenât you?â Viola said with tears of hatred. âYouâre happy that Iâve been expelled by Queena, arenât you?â
Andrea thought to herself, maybe Viola is crazy, she obviously only said some polite words, what part of those were show off words?
âViola, you being kicked off the team by Queena was nothing of my doing, why would I be happy?â
Viola looked at her. âAndrea, I really hate you!â
âOkay, so I know you really hate me. Is there anything else? If not, I am leaving,â Andrea thought maybe she is also crazy too, for staying and having this conversation with Viola. She shouldnât even be treating Viola as a normal person.
Just as Andrea was leaving the meeting room, Viola suddenly blurted out, âWeâre both mistresses anyway. Do you really think you are better than me? Heâs going to move on to other things, you are going to get dumped too!â
Andrea stopped in her tracks, then pulled herself together and pondered what these words meant. Could Viola be one of Baronâs mistresses too?
But, Baron doesnât have a legally married partner, so technically, she was not a âmistressâ. But, besides Baron, she doesnât have any contact with any other males.
Andrea sighed. Maybe she just doesnât know Baron well enough. Maybe his family overseas had arranged a marriage for him.
But, she actually would quite rather he move his attention to something else and dump her, she would really celebrate this.
Andrea pushed aside all these nonsensical thoughts and continued to work. Apart from Viola coming to clean up her desk and leaving carrying a cardboard box, there were no other disruptions that day.
At home time, she answered a call from Baron. âMs Andersonâ, the secretary said with a very formal and courteous tone. âMr Howard would like to have dinner with you tonight, please wait for him in the underground car park.â
Andrea let her know she will do so, and rode the elevator to the underground car park alone. When she stepped out of the lift, she immediately saw Baronâs chauffer. Andrea waited in the car for half an hour before Baron appeared.
âHow was work today, very busy?â she asked politely.
Baron replied, âBeen preparing for the start of the formal partnership with Eason Reed.â Andrea jumped at the name. She hasnât heard the name in the past year, since that day.
Any news related to Eason, usually was about his relationship with Cassidy. Andrea was even less interested in this. Now that she has suddenly heard this, she couldnât hide her slight excitement. Baron looked at her, and as if to joke, he asked, âWhat, arenât you excited? Isnât he your idol?â
âI donât have anything to be excited about,â Andrea said, looking at him with small smile. âIf the company wonât let me work with him, then there is no point in getting excited.â
âWho said you wonât be allowed to work with him?â
Andreaâs words were hit back with this obviously rhetorical question, and her face could barely hide her surprise. âYou want me to work with him?â
she asked.
âDidnât you say he is your idol? Arenât you happy that I am letting you work with him?â
Andrea looked at Baronâs face carefully. He didnât look like he was pulling her leg, so there must be some other motive. âNo, never mind, I think I will just stay where I am. I am a new intern and I donât know much about fashion design yet, I donât think I will be able to do this.â Besides, all eyes will be Arrogant President Dotes on Me ï¤Chapter 29 Sometimes, Heâs Pretty Nice Exclusive Memory ï¤Chapter 500 Affectionate Sunflower on any partnerships with Eason, never mind if she gets in trouble, but she canât bring any trouble to Eason too. Although a little regretful, Andrea decides she canât go.
But Baron isnât someone to reason with. âIf I say you can do it, you can do it.â He proceeded to put the Bluetooth earpiece in his ear and make phone calls.
Andrea protested a few times but was ignored by the man, so she could only stop talking and glumly sit back. The car turned left and right, before finally stopping in front of a fine dining restaurant.
Baron took Andrea inside; the manager in the lobby took them to a private dining area upstairs. The window faced the rushing river, and combined with the bright lights, the scenery was really beautiful. The waiter poured them red wine and served them some pastries.
Andrea stuck a fork in the soft sponge cake and thoughtfully licked off the cream from the fork. âToday, Viola was kicked out from our intern group.â
Baron didnât look surprised, and asked, âQueena kicked her out?â
Andrea replied, âYes.â
Baron gracefully cut up his food, saying âIf Queena really wanted to expel someone, then no one can stop her, so you had better do things nicely, or youâll make me look bad.â
Andrea smiled mockingly, âMr Howard, even you have situations that are out of your control?â
Baron glanced at her without saying anything.
Andrea chewed her lip and carefully asked, âThen I have another question. Mr Howard, do you have a fiancé?â
âWhatâs it to you?â Upon hearing these words, the atmosphere around Baron dropped several degrees, he does not like this question at all.
