“Danielle’s been doing everything she can to stay at Justin’s place. She’s using that little bit of goodwill from Mr. E arton to pressure Justin at every turn. She’s… she’s been deliberately badmouthing you, trying to drive a wedge between you and Justin. And i even…” Susan glanced around nervously before lowering her voice. “I heard her talking on the phone with her father, Chandler. They were talking about some kind of plan, about feeling wronged, and stuff like that…”

Susan played the whole divide–and–conquer act well. She believed Adriana already didn’t trust Nicole, so once she said this, Adriana would be even more convinced that everything Nicole was doing now was just an act to gain sympathy.

Adriana did pause for a moment, then looked at Susan with a deeper gaze.

Susan had suddenly shown up to tell her all this. True or not, one thing was obvious: her hostility toward Nicole was real.

Susan wanted to use someone else to get rid of Danielle–and she wanted Adriana to be the scapegoat.

‘You really heard all that?” Adriana asked, sounding doubtful.

Susan nodded quickly. “I really did. I haven’t told Justin yet, but I was planning to tell him when I get back.”

Adriana stayed silent for a moment, thinking it through, then nodded. “I understand. Ms. Susan, Barton Group has a formal hiring process. Even if you and Justin are close, we still have to follow the procedures on the surface.”

Adriana smiled as she spoke, giving Susan plenty of face. The pride in Susan’s eyes was hard to hide, but her tone remained poste ‘Ms. Barton, you’re too kind. I’m just applying normally. If you think I’m suitable, then keep me. If HR thinks I’m not qualified, that’s fine too.”

Adriana smiled again. “That wouldn’t be appropriate. After all, you’re someone very important to Justin.”

Susan’s face started flushing even more.

Adriana had Kenneth escort Susan out, then stood by the window and called Justin.

‘Justin, it’s Adriana. Is this a good time to talk?” Ever since Justin started pretending to distance himself from ber, they hadn’t spoken much over the phone.

“Yes. Go ahead. I’m here, listening.” Justin’s voice was always calm, unhurried, and without much emotion.

However, he had taken the effort to tell Adriana, “I’m here.”

Deep down, it felt like he was telling her they were still on the same side. As long as she needed him, he would abans de

Adriana understood. That line was Justin’s way of responding to her and also his way of repaying beremy’s kindness

She smiled faintly before getting to the point. “Susan came to Darton Group today. She said she wants to work here at my assistant. Did you know about this?”

There was a brief silence on the other end. “I’ll talk to her about it. You can let her join for now, but don’t trust her

Justin clearly knew Susan had her own agenda.

“She seems to be targeting Danielle. She said Danielle has been trying to seduce you and secretly called Chandler. She said she heard it herself,” Adriana continued.
