Chapter 98
Upon hearing that, Mikayla stopped smiling and looked at her Indifferently.
You can ridicule me, but personal abuse is not okay. It’s like others can say you’re too beautiful to be true, but they can’t say you went for surgeries because you wanted to cover up your face which was as ugly as your heart.”
“Who are you calling ugly?” The woman was so angry that she stood up and wanted to argue with her.
“What are you trying to do?” Just then, Jerome’s cold voice was heard.
Mikayla turned over and saw he was walking over with Kylie.
“Are you okay, Mrs. Miller?” Kylie asked in concern.
Before Mikayla could answer, the woman started to exclaim in innocence, “You’re Mrs. Miller, so what? | only asked you about financial statements and cash flows from investing.
“Even if you can’t you can’t humiliate me and say that I’ve had plastic surgery!”
answer
“Kay was just too angry and spoke without thinking, Mr. Miller. Please don’t blame her,” Aubrey quickly defended Mikayla.
Mikayla sneered inside. So the reason Aubrey dragged her here eagerly and stirred up a quarrel among them was to let Jerome see her thoughtlessness.
She wanted to blame Mikayla for starting conflicts with others during this kind of occasion.
“You dare to attack my wife just because of this?”
Mikayla was about to say something, but Jerome slid his arm around her waist,
He asked the women in a cold voice, “Why does my wife have to explain the idea of financial statements and cash flows from investing to you?
“Besides, you definitely look like you’ve had plastic surgery. You’re not only lying to yourself, but you won’t -let others mention it, either?”
Not only Aubrey but even Mikayla was shocked by Jerome’s defensive behavior.
That time when she was wronged by the receptionist of the Miller Group, Jerome even said that she was throwing her weight around without knowing the truth.
He was probably trying to maintain his image of a good man.
The woman was scorned by Jerome. She covered her face and ran away crying.
The other women started to feel anxious all of a sudden.
“We only heard that Mrs. Miller has passed the CFA test, and wanted to talk to her, Mr. Miller.”
“That’s right. We didn’t mean to embarrass Mrs. Miller.”
Kyle tried to smooth things over in a gentle manner.
You don’t have to doubt Mrs. Miller’s ability. The proposal that Berhal Enterprise planned to use on Ansoft Enterprise last time was made by Mrs. Miller.”
The women looked surprised when they heard that.
Even though they didn’t work at Bernhal Enterprise, they had seen the proposal that got rewarded.
Not only were the financial cash flows written on it, but the data that was more detailed and specific was
also listed.
“Mrs. Miller is so amazing. We were too blind to see that.”
We’re sorry for offending you just now, Mrs. Miller.”
It didn’t matter if they were truly apologetic or not, Mikayla didn’t bother to make a fuss about it anymore. Her anger had been vented anyway.
“Let’s go.” Mikayla said to Jerome.
Til handle this. Mr. Miller, Kylie also said.
Jerome didn’t say anything else and walked away with Mikayla with his arm around her waist.
Aubrey stared at them as they were walking away. She then looked at Kylie and headed toward the
washroom
After Kylie briefly comforted the women, she followed Aubrey to the washroom.
They stood in front of the mirrors Aubrey was touching up her makeup.
She wondered what the point of asking her to bring Mikayla there to get laughed at by those women was when it had made her look good instead.
“Thanks for your hard work” Kylie didn’t explain anything. She passed Aubrey a card and left the
washroom.
When they reached the lounge area, Mikayla shook Jerome’s hand off her waist and said, “There’s nobody here, you don’t have to pretend like you’re a perfect husband.”
