My Four Miraculous Treasures

Willow paused. She could hear the sarcasm in his words no matter how slow she was.

Just like Frank, Jasper was looking down on her!

He thought she took advantage of her position to seek personal gain!

Willow felt suffocated and furious.

She suddenly recalled the time when Jasper asked her if the food contest was worth investing in.

When she said it was, Jasper easily signed the contract.

He must have thought she was seeking personal gain since then!

Did he think that he was giving her benefits by letting her best friend's child win and also giving George a promotion opportunity?

Willow clenched her fists and replied firmly, "Mr. Hughes, Hailey won the contest with her abilities! Everyone witnessed it. She would've won even if you hadn't invested in the contest. She was talented and capable. I didn't give her any advantage! Also, scum like George is only a stranger to me. I don't care whether or not he gets a promotion!"

Willow sounded harsh and angry.

She had always been timid and fearful of Jasper, so this was the first time she lashed out at him.

She could tolerate Jasper misunderstanding her, but he crossed the line when he questioned Hailey's abilities and her victory.

Willow couldn't stand it anymore.

Taken aback by her outburst, Jasper raised his eyebrows at her.

"You should be aware of whom you're speaking to," he snapped.

"I know full well whom I'm speaking to! Mr. Hughes, don't think you know everything about everyone just because you're high and mighty. I endured it when you used me to reject the marriage your grandfather arranged for you. However, you can't say that I used the food contest for my personal gain! I'm tired from standing the whole day so I'll excuse myself. Please carry on with your work."

Willow's chest was pent up with anger. After saying her piece, she turned and left the room.

Jasper was glaring darkly at her.

She braced the intimidation brought on by this pressuring aura and left the room without stopping.

Her knees gave away the instant she returned to her room. She flopped down onto her chair and broke out in a cold sweat.

Heavens knew how much courage it took for her to hide her fear earlier.

She commended herself for having the audacity to confront Jasper.

The pressure was so suffocating that she had to fight back or risk getting depression.

However, she wouldn't have the courage to lash out at Jasper again if given the chance.

It was already suffocating enough to be around him and his icy aura, much less confront him.

Still, Willow, was furious earlier. Jasper himself gave Hailey a perfect score. He also witnessed her

Willow could never tolerate that!

In the evening, when it was time to get off work, Willow left immediately without staying a minute longer.

She thought it through. She would leave on time from now on, and if Jasper didn't like that, he could just fire her.

She would love it if he did.

How strange Back then, Jasper would rather compensate her a hundred thousand dollars to fire her, but then transferred her back to Hughes Corporation a few days after that. He even gave her ber secretary job back. noveldrama

He even bought over Xavier's company to do this.

Did he do it because he didn't want her to be around Xavier?

Was she that important to him?

Willow couldn't figure out the thought pattern of rich people.
