Terence gave Felix a doubtful look and thought Felix was insane.
"Well, you can leave now." As he looked away, Terence shook his head slightly. He didn't want to say anything more to Felix.
When he noticed Terence's expression, Felix knew that Terence didn't believe what he said. To be honest, if he were in Terence's position, he wouldn't also trust what he just said.
Nonetheless, that was the truth. The hatred Felix felt towards Jean was immeasurable. He regretted that he hadn't seen her real character earlier.
As he looked at Terence, Felix immediately realized that he had lost a great partner because of Jean. As such, he was still determined to press the issue. "Jean had been pretending from the beginning until the end. Even though I don't know what she wants to do, I can guarantee that her goals are something malicious."
"Mr. Yang, are you done talking?" Terence raised his head. With cold eyes, he looked at Felix and said, "I am not saying anything to you, but that doesn't mean that I know nothing. Do you want me to expose your lie?"
"Everything I just said is the truth," Felix said confidently.
"Are you sure you're not hiding anything?" Terence revealed a disgusted expression. "Does that mean that Jean knowingly took that drug just to frame you?"
"Huh? What drug?" With confused eyes, Felix looked at Terence. "Mr. Chen, what are you talking about?"
"I've had enough of this nonsense! Alice, don't you dare come to work tomorrow if you can't throw this man out." Terence didn't want to interact with Felix any longer. After she heard Terence's order, Alice approached Felix. "Mr. Yang, you'd better leave now. Don't make it difficult for me."
Felix was still furious about his situation. However, he couldn't do anything about it. The trap set by Jean for him was successful. All he could do was to suffer in silence.
Nonetheless, Felix was still not comfortable going out of Terence's office. He looked at Alice and asked, "Alice, in your eyes, what the hell is on Mr. Chen's mind? It's not like him to give up the partnership with my company just for an unimportant woman."
"Mr. Yang, it's truly your mistake this time." A bitter smile appeared on Alice's face. Even though she did not know what happened exactly last night, she eavesdropped a few words. After Felix's confrontation with Terence just then, she had already realized what had happened.
"You can have as many women as you want. Why did you choose Jean?" Alice asked with a bitter smile.
"What's the problem with Jean?" Felix was suddenly confused.
A look of disbelief painted Alice's face. "You don't usually watch the news, do you? Are you not aware of it? Don't you know that Jean is the fiancee of Mr. Chen?"
"What!?" Felix was stunned. "How is that possible?"
When he thought about it, Felix believed even more that Jean set a trap for him. However, he still didn't know why.
"Why are you so surprised? Do you think it's impossible?" Alice asked. "The news went up on Weibo. Our CEO and Miss Gu are about to marry. They have already started choosing their wedding rings. Do you think they are going to get married soon?"
After she glanced at Felix, she continued, "You hurt Miss Gu. No wonder Mr. Chen is so angry. In my opinion, there is no possibility of cooperation between HT Group and your company."
Felix smiled bitterly. "Yes, I realize that. It's all my fault."
If Jean hadn't tricked him, Felix wouldn't have to suffer such a setback.
