Chapter 479 

At the same time, after leaving Frederick’s company, Robert headed straight to Poppy Petal Fragrances. 

If it hadn’t been for Miley’s slip of the tongue on the phone, he wouldn’t have 

He parked his car and took the VIP elevator straight to the executive floor. 

khown that his mother had actually managed to get Marguerite to work for the company. 

There were two separate glass-walled offices facing each other; one belonging to his mother, the other to Marguerite. 

Through the transparent windows, Robert nodded to Marguerite before striding into Penelope’s office. 

“Ms. Penelope, did you really take one of my peo 

Robert didn’t beat around the bush as he walked in. 

“Ms. Penelope? Show some respect, young man!” Penelope chided Robert, then chuckled, “And since when is everyone ‘your people’? But you’re too late, Marguerite is with me 

now.” 

Robert couldn’t help but glance over at Marguerite in the neighboring glass office as he leaned forward with both hands on Penelope’s desk, “You knew very well that I was grooming Marguerite for a position at Thunderbolt Enterprises. How could you think of undercutting me like this?” 

Penelope just smiled, “Frederick and Marguerite are now living at the Winston Mansion. Isn’t that enough for them? They don’t need to be glued at the hip at work too. Distance makes the heart grow fonder! It’s better for

was both annoyed and perplexed, “Why must it be Marguerite? We have plenty of talented designers. It’s not like we have to have her” 

“Don’t you know that more talent is always better? Besides, in the twenty-odd years since Poppy Petal Fragrances was established, I’ve never encountered someone whose taste is so similar to mine and who satisfies my expectations like Marguerite does. The moment I smelled her Polar Radiance, I knew she was the one. She feels so familiar; I like her!” 

“But even if you liked her, you shouldn’t have given her Nina’s spot! You’ve been holding on to that position for over twenty years, and now you’re handing it over to an outsider? Where are you going to place Nina when she returns?” 

Penelope spoke with conviction, but faced with Robert’s question, she couldn’t find a suitable answer. When she was initiating Marguerite that morning, she couldn’t help but think of the position originally reserved for Nina. 

Firstly, Marguerite’s capabilities were a perfect fit for the job. Secondly, the office for this position was right next to her own. She couldn’t explain it, but something compelled her to want to see Marguerite at all times.. 

As for the rest, she really hadn’t thought it through.. 

Penelope remained silent, and Robert helplessly shook his head.. 

He wanted to chide his mother for her foolishness, but at that moment his phone buzzed. He took it out and saw a message from Teresa along with a picture.

[Don’t worry, I won’t tell Mommy who your sister is until you figure it out yourself! That’s all the help I can offer; I didn’t expect this situation either.] 

Robert was baffled. 

What did Teresa mean by this? What did this have to do with Marguerite?”

Confused, he opened the picture. Upon a closer look, he froze as if petrified.
