Three Years Forgotten, Why Go Crazy When I Say Goodbye? novel Chapter 395

"Professor Smith is not just any guest. This is a partnership, yes, but we are the hosts, and we will show him absolute deference. If any of you ruin his first impression with your sloppy details, don't say I didn't warn you."

The moment she finished, a tense, frantic energy swept through the bullpen as employees scrambled to organize their desks. Vivienne stood dead center, basking in the intoxicating rush of total control, her smugness practically radiating off her.

A known kiss-up immediately seized the opportunity. "You are incredible, Ms. Sinclair! Actually getting Professor Smith to fly out and partner with us? That is legendary!"

A chorus of flattery instantly erupted around her.

"Only Ms. Sinclair has connections like that. One phone call and she lands the biggest fish in the sea."

"Exactly! With Professor Smith on board, the company is untouchable. The sky's the limit."

"Honestly, it's a good thing Leo and his crew walked. Cleared out the dead weight for actual talent. Did they really think Sinclair Group would collapse without them? When they see the news, they're going to be crying themselves to sleep."

Listening to the relentless praise, Vivienne couldn't keep the smirk off her face. She practically vibrated with pride.

In her head, she was already mocking Willow's stupidity. Did that bitch really think she could outplay her? So what if she poached Leo? Vivienne could always find someone infinitely better to take his place.

Vivienne had fully convinced herself that Leo's departure was Willow's fault—a deliberate attack meant to ruin her life.
