Danielle hadn’t expected Adriana to be so thoughtful. Early that morning, Adriana had already arranged for someone to take care of it. Danielle had assumed Adriana might forget, or use the chance to humiliate her thoroughly.

After all… she had done so many terrible things before.

Well, maybe she had judged Adriana too narrowly, or maybe Adriana simply no longer cared enough to waste time getting revenge on her.

“Ms. Barton.” The moment Danielle stepped into the elevator, several former employees followed behind her, their voices dripping with sarcasm.

She had once been the head of the department, and now she was only an ordinary mid–level employee.

That kind of fall hit hard.

“I really never thought someone as proud as you would end up accepting charity. I truly thought you’d never lower your head just for a paycheck.” One of the employees sneered at Danielle.

She clearly saw her as someone with nowhere else to turn, forced to live off others‘ pity.

Danielle didn’t respond.

But her silence didn’t stop the woman. “Danielle, after all the disgusting things you and your father did, how do you even have the nerve to come back to the company? Everyone in Barton Group knows what you’ve done. Now that you’re back, don’t you feel ashamed at all?”

Danielle took a deep breath and still said nothing.

“If I were you, I’d be too ashamed to keep living.” The woman kept provoking her.

“Then why don’t you jump off a building?” Danielle looked up and met her eyes directly.

It was ridiculous. “I’m the one actually involved, and even I don’t feel ashamed. So why are you feeling ashamed for me? If you’ve got that much free time, maybe focus on doing your job properly. Last I checked, you’re the one who can’t even type a contract number correctly. If you’ve still got the nerve to stay alive, why wouldn’t I?”

Danielle’s aggression in the past had always been sharp and direct; she rarely wasted her time arguing with people.

But damn, talking back like this actually feels pretty good. Danielle thought to herself.

‘Hmph. We’ll see how long it takes before Mr. Barton throws you out again.” The woman had been shut down mercilessly, and her face turned ugly. The moment the elevator reached her floor, she stormed out.

Danielle took a deep breath. Even she didn’t know how long she could last in an environment like this.

“Danielle, today’s project handoff is with Lincoln Group. Their person in charge is Savannah. You’ll need to coordinate with herg

In the work area, everyone was busy with their own tasks, and no one had time to keep bothering Danielle.

But the second she heard that Savannah was the contact person for the project, every hair on her body stood on end.

To be honest, Danielle wasn’t that smart, especially not when facing someone as rotten to the core as Savannah.

Trading barbs with coworkers was one thing. Trying to outplay Savannah in a real contest was another. She wasn’t built for that.

She rubbed her forehead as a headache started brewing, but work was still work.

On behalf of Barton Group, she contacted Julian’s side again. This time, Skyridge Materials‘ response was much more polite.

Danielle knew that if the talks kept going, Julian would definitely begin to waver.

But once Julian agreed to continue working with Barton Group, that would only make her an even bigger eyesore to Chandler.
