Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 2062

Julia's face drained of color as she nervously fiddled her fingers.

She bowed her head and was too scared to speak.

She said what she said only after seeing Jaylene's expression and receiving her silent signal.

'If Jaylene was against the idea, why didn't she stop me during the event?’ she thought.

Stella's gifts outshone Jaylene's, and her speech was also better.

Jaylene felt publicly humiliated.

Frustrated, she needed an outlet for her anger, and Julia became the scapegoat.

Once Jaylene's temper subsided, Julia tentatively said, "Ms. Saun, perhaps this incident isn't entirely negative.

It helps us see who we can rely on in the future." Jaylene calmed down upon hearing that.

She noticed Stella had not finished distributing her gifts and that most of the staff seemed hesitant to take sides.

Caline was not The Velvet, and winning people over would not be easy for Stella, let alone with such simple tactics.

Although Jaylene understood this, being publicly embarrassed without retaliation was something she could not stomach.

"Ms.

Saun, I have an idea.

We can set an example to show everyone who's in charge and what's off-limits," Julia said in a low tone.

Jaylene considered this.

"How do you propose we do that?" "Through that girl from the finance department, Wren Adkin.

That department is loyal to Mrs.

Saun.

If Wren accepts gifts from Stella, reprimanding her would send a clear message." Jaylene hesitated.

"My mom won't agree to me firing someone so suddenly." While Wren was not an important figure in the finance department, being recruited by Darcie implied she possessed some competence.

Darcie would not dismiss someone over such a trivial matter.

Julia wanted to continue, but Jaylene waved her off.

"You can leave now," she said in an icy tone.

Julia picked up the scattered items and silently exited the office.

In the hallway, she encountered Elana.

Julia's eyes welled up.

"Elana." Elana signaled for her to keep quiet and motioned toward the stairwell.
