Chapter 504: Revolving Door
Emma walked out of the office in a huff and almost ready to cry. She had given everything to this project. Even enduring and ignoring her own budding feelings for Seb, so that she would have this as her career. And now, because some random worker at the facrtory had mentioned seeing her designs somewhere else, her work was under scrutiny and her credibility at risk.
As she walked out with her head high, telling herself that she was not going to cry, she tried to think of ways that she might be able to salvage this! Could it be that someone was deliberately trying to sabotage her?
First, the accident happened. And then, later she was accused of trying to poison Olivia Frost and now this! It was too much of a coincidence. But who could be targetting her and why?
She wanted to talk about all this with Seb but he’d simply refused to listen. When he’d apologized for threatening her, she thought that everything would be back to normal. But he seemed insistent on keeping her at arm’s length! And she was okay with that. However, she was not okay with compromising on her career for him.
She had to find a way to get him alone and talk to him! She’d given all the sketches and files to him to prove that she was the creator! Heck, she was even willing to redo all the designs if that was he wanted! She had not plagiarized the work! But right now, he was so focused on protecting his pregnant wife and child that he wasn’t even willing to listen to her!
What had he said? Passed on the necessary evidence to the legal and investigative team of Frost Industries? This project had been his baby, he’d said! And now, he was just passing it on? It was becasue of that Olivia Frost!
As she stepped into the elevator, she wondered if she should wait for him in the parking. She had already seen his car when she’d come. But what if Olivia was still with him. She would have to take the risk...
In the basement, as Emma stepped out of the elevator, her mind consumed in scheming and frustration, she collided with a little girl who was standing there, waiting for the elevator.
"Hey! Watch where you’re going!" Emma snapped, her patience worn thin as she rubbed her sore arm.
