Zhenny tapped her finger on the desktop and said calmly, “She‘s just getting ready for a divorce, and
she still has the Winters Corporation‘s equity. Right now, we should be able to get compensation from
her. She may not be able to extract something valuable later on.”
“Ten times the compensation. That‘s $500,000,000.” Jasmine smiled. “With this huge profit, there
should be no objections to me becoming the heir of Jones Corporation.”
Zhenny produced a smug smile. “I‘ve paved this road for you. You just need to walk it. Next, I’ll have
Mr. Krisman find you a good partner. A powerful couple will gain a firm foothold in the company.”
Jasmine‘s smile instantly faded away.
I only have Flint in my heart. I won‘t fall for any other guys…
When Serene returned to LaStar Technology Corporation, she was perplexed.
She washed her face in the washroom and covered up the fingerprints on her face before knocking on
Adina‘s office door.
“Ms. Daugherty, I‘m back.”
Adina was reviewing the project documents. She did not have the time to look up, but she could sense
something was wrong from the sound of Serene‘s voice.
She closed the document and raised her gaze. She then narrowed her eyes. “What happened to your
face?”
“No, Nothing.” Serene hesitated. “Let me go through what has been discussed in the meeting earlier…”
Adina stood up and strode over. The nearer she got to her, the clearer the mark on her face became.
Her gaze was cold. “Who struck you?”
Serene bowed her head, feeling remorse.
‘Ms. Daugherty has been deeply involved in her divorce in the past two days. I went to the meeting on
her behalf and caused her trouble… I‘m truly a useless assistant…‘
Adina pursed her lips and took the document from her.
After only reading the first page, she was enraged.
‘How dare they make false accusations saying that it steals customers‘ privacy after taking the chip
results that I‘ve spent many days designing. What‘s even more ridiculous is that they even dared to ask
us to pay ten times the compensation.‘
‘Elitos is really shameless!
‘But no matter how shameless Mr. Krisman is, he wouldn‘t have slapped a woman.’
Adina narrowed her eyes. “Did someone from the Jones Corporation attend the meeting as well?”
“Mdm. Jones and Ms. Yackley were there.” Serene said indignantly, “It‘s obvious that they deliberately
framed us!
Although this test document has been officially issued, it doesn‘t mean that our chip is really faulty. Ms.
Daugherty, I think we should go through legal procedures and let the court appoint a third party to re-
test…”
“Zhenny Jones and Jasmine Yackley hit you?” Adina interrupted
Serene calmly.
Serene was silent for a moment before saying, “Yes, it‘s Ms. Yackley.”
As soon as Serene said it, Adina walked out of the office and strode out of the company.
Serene was frightened and hurriedly went after her. “Ms. Daugherty, where are you going? There are
reporters outside…”
