Bride To Be Not Me (Janice and Simon)

Heidi glared at Janice as the latter rebamed to her seat. For the time ever, she felt utterly humiliated.

Simon had reassured her that Janice lacked skill and was weak. Plus, she was promised that the latter was easy to manipulate.

But from what Heidi saw, there was not even a trace of weakness in Janice.

Still, it wasn't too bad, Janice having some skills might make this cat-and-mouse gane less boring.

Heidi clapped her hands lightly and said with a smile, "You're full of surprises, Ms. Smith. But I find it strange; your previous works have always been mediocre, and now your skills have skyrocketed

"That doesn't quite add up, does it? Or have you always enjoyed hiding your talents?"

She no longer trusted Sumon's assessment. Now she had to test Janice's abilities herself.

Janice looked up and calmly asked in front of all the executives and seamstresses, "Ms. Ryan, on what basis are you questioning me like that? All crochet designs produced by the Prosper Stitch Group's crochet department are considered internally confidential

"You've submitted a piece, but I wasn't aware you were a seamstress in the crochet department."

No one had expected Janice to openly challenge Heidi Eke that After all, employees of Prosper Stitch Group had always known that Held! was Edward's close friend. Such boldness!

Heidi froze. “L”

Janice glanced over at Edward. "And Mr. Moore?"

Edward met her gaze and simply stated, “You're right. Ms. Hyan 's not an employer yet”

With that single sentent, Fitward cemented Heldi's authority in Prosper Stitch Group Who was Held to raise such questions? And why would Janice owe her an explanation? Hrid was stoned to find Edward not backing her. But she wouldn't have to worry, the voting round was coming soon, and she'd bought votes.

Heidi chuckded and settled in her seat. "Ms. Smith, it's not over yet"

Janice responded with a faint smile, "Bought those votes, didn't you?"

Heidi's composure faltered at her words. How would she know? Could there be a traitor among those she'd bribed over the past month?

That was impossible. None would dare turn against her given her close relationship with the Moore siblings Harrison tore his gaze away from Janice's breathtaking crochet design and addressed the room. "All those in favor of Ms. Smith's work, please raise your hand."

The males stated that whoever had the most votes would represent Prosper Stoch Group in the Winter Tournament.

Excluding the four seamstresses who'd submitted work including Janice, there were 12 eligible voters. Hands were raised and added to 11 votes. Only the vice director of the finance department abstained,

Heidi panicked. Thankfully, there was one person who hadn't voted. They might have not wanted to embarrass Janice too much, given her current position as a director Jance showed no reaction to the outcome of the voting.noveldrama

Harrison continued, “All those in favor of Ms. Ryan's work, please raise your hand.”

With that, the twelve voters raised their hands one by one.

Heidi frowned. She counted over and over, only to spot to votes. She was one vole short

She was desperate. Even a tie with Janice would be acceptable at this point!

Among the four supervisors of the crochet department, Luna was the only one who had yet to vote. Held had het par on Lama There was a chill in her voice as she called out. "Ms. Everly."
