Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157

“Sir, I only heard a few words. I can’t remember it clearly anymore.”

“Yeah. My seat is in the corner, so I didn’t hear much.”

“Ask Millie. She sits closest to Aurelia. Besides, she sounded really sure of herself in the group chat that she knew the situation best.”

Everyone started to turn against one another.

Millie had been far too arrogant lately. Last night, she had posted about the gift worth ten thousand dollars that she had bought for her boyfriend, giving everyone the impression that she wasn’t short of money and that she didn’t care about how she spent it.

The others were annoyed by her flaunting, so they were all quick to point their fingers at her first.

After Kimberly entered the department, Aurelia realized that her colleagues were more or less just following the crowd. It was human nature. After all, who wouldn’t want to befriend someone powerful?

However, there were drawbacks to this, so she had kept reminding Millie to keep a low profile.

Unfortunately, not only did Millie not listen, but she even followed in Kimberly’s footsteps.

Millie was both frustrated and furious. She had always been short-tempered, and this time was no exception.

Without a second thought, she stood up and pointed at Aurelia. “She plagiarized Kimberly! Kimberly came up with an extravagant proposal before this. Didn’t Aurelia secretly make one with the exact same concept herself after that?”

After hearing Millie’s defense, Kimberly’s expression improved slightly. She raised her head with tears in her eyes and said, “Thank you, Millie.”

Millie nodded at her and said, “Don’t worry, Kimberly. I support you.”

Aurelia looked at Millie with a frown. Millie really hadn’t listened to a single word of her advice. She wasn’t aware that she was playing with fire.

Kimberly had neither admitted nor denied the plagiarism accusation herself, but Millie had jumped out to defend her.

Once it was proven that Kimberly had lied, Millie would be considered an accomplice.

Did she really think Kimberly would appreciate her help then?

If Kimberly had a conscience, she would stand with Millie. But if she didn’t have one, Kimberly could even claim that Millie had misled her and made her believe that Aurelia had plagiarized her proposal.
