The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 398

But this time, Nikolai doesn't take the bait. He is drowning in embarrassment and frustration. He is the one feeling hurt here, being publicly chewed out out of nowhere!

Ignoring Jade's tug on his sleeve, Nikolai mutters an excuse about having "urgent matters to attend to" and practically bolts from the greenhouse. As he turns to leave, he catches Jake flashing a smug, gloating smirk.

Nikolai seethes. When did Jake turn into such an asshole? Whatever happened to family loyalty?

With Nikolai storming off, Jade is left entirely isolated, utterly outraged but powerless to do anything about it.

Tara doesn't waste another second on the fleeing siblings. She leads the team through a comprehensive inspection of the greenhouse. With surgical precision, she identifies the underlying issues plaguing each plant and prescribes immediate, actionable solutions.

"Tara, you are truly incredible. This hands-on demonstration is a massive breakthrough for us," one of the lead researchers says, his voice thick with admiration.

"As a shareholder and executive of the Dennis Group, my priority is ensuring our collective success," Tara replies smoothly. "I hope these protocols assist the team in cultivating these rare botanicals to their full potential."

Tara might be cold to those she despises, completely ignoring people who bore her, but when it comes to professional diplomacy, she plays the game flawlessly.
