Chapter 101
That was the payment Reformer gave her.
she was so shrilled that her heart.
Even though she had known about the money for some time, the moment it was deposited into her account, she w raced with excitement. It was her first time receiving such a large sum all at once.
Since the contract was signed with Moira personally, she didn’t need to split the money with her company. After deducting taxes from the 140 thousand dollars, the over 90 thousand dollars were all hers to keep.
Moira immediately opened WhatsApp and sent a screenshot of her earnings to Zea.
Zea typed. [Wow, babe, you’re rich now! Please take care of mel
Moira: [Let’s go shopping tomorrow. I’ll treat you to a meal.]
Zea had just returned from a business trip to Sorsa the previous day, and she agreed immediately since the two hadn’t met up in quite a while.
After making an appointment with Zea, Moira called Baldwin
The man picked up quickly and asked. “Moira, what’s up?”
Moira announced happily, “Mr. Wats, Reformer just sent me the payment. I want to buy everyone drinks. Could you arrange for someone to collect their orders!”
“Sure, 111 get Irene to ask everyone,” said Baldwin.
Irene York was Baldwin’s assistant who usually handled orders whenever he treated the team to drinks.
After Irene checked with everyone and placed the onder, Moira transferred her the money with a quick “thank you”
Moura ordered herself a watermelon juice. While waiting for the drinks, she resumed working on her next design project and scheduled a house tour with her client on Monday.
As she focused intently on her work, a knock sounded at the door. Without looking up, she said, “Come in”
The receptionist said. “Ms. Elliott, Mrs. Mitchell would like to..
“Moira, you bitch” A sharp and familiar voice cut through the air.
Moira’s fingers froze on the keyboard. She looked up in surprise to see Darlene, who was dressed in an elegant and understated one–piece dress that radiated wealth and sophistication. Darlene’s expression was twisted with anger.
“How dare you collude with others to sabotage the Mitchell family!” Darlene stormed toward her in heels, raising her hand to strike.
But Moira was on guard. Just as the slap was about to land, she caught the woman’s wrist with precision.
The commotion drew the attention of passersby, who stopped outside Moira’s office to see what happened.
The receptionist who had brought Darlene in was stunned, unsure of the conflict between the two women.
Seeing the resentment in Darlene’s eyes, Moira’s face darkened. She turned to the receptionist and said, “Could you kindly close the door for ust Mr. Mitchell and I need to discuss something in private.”
“Oh sure” The receptionist quickly exited and shut the door behind her.
With the outside world shut out, Moira released her grip on Darlene’s wrist. When Darlene moved to strike again, Moira said firmly, “Mrs. Mitchell, there are cameras in my office. If you try to hit me again, do you believe I’ll call the police?
Darlene knew Moira was far more shrewd than Jane. When she thought of the man behind Moira, she felt a flicker of fear. Suppressing her anger, the lowered her hand and snorted coldly. “Moira, you’re truly impressive. I didn’t expect you to hook up with Conrad!”
The mention of Conrad’s name caught Moira off guard, and she frowned. “What are you talking about?”
Seeing Moira’s feigned confusion, Darlene pulled out the chair opposite her and sat down.
Staring her in the eye, Darlene sneered, “Don’t play dumb, Muira. You had Conrad ruin Whalescape, gut Thomas thrown into trouble, and now you’ve asked Conrad to sabotage the Mitchell family’s business. Did you really think I wouldn’t find out?”
