Chapter 70
Ms. Zoe laughed heartily. “Oh, you’re more than welcome! You’re the perfect person for
my First Snow, and it was practically tailored for you. I would’ve been devastated if Jennifer was the one wearing it.
Sheena just smiled. Thankfully, she noticed the issue with the dress from Skye just before leaving. Then, she called Ms. Zoe to confirm if it was a knockoff.
Since Jennifer was slightly chubbier than her, the dress did not fit her perfectly, allowing Sheena to swap it with the real First Snow.
“Even so, I have to thank you for this. When you’re back in town, I’ll treat you to a meal.”
Ms. Zoe, currently watching a video of Sheena dancing to Lover that Skye had recorded, grinned mischievously. “There’s no need for that. Just agree to model for me and I’ll be over the moon.”
“My hourly rate is rather high. Let me know when you can afford me,” Sheena replied.
Ms. Zoe groaned playfully while praising Sheena’s dance moves from the previous night. The two friends, who had not been in touch for years, chatted into the wee hours of the night.
The next day, Sheena woke up on time, feeling quite good as she headed to work. However, as she arrived at the office, she noticed the employees giving her strange looks.
Nonetheless, Sheena remained unbothered and went straight into her office.
The employees from the same floor gathered and exchanged hushed whispers as they glanced at her.
A plump employee remarked, “Hey, is what they’re saying online true? But Ms. Sheena seemed pretty cool and didn’t seem like that type of person!”
Another female employee with heavy makeup seemed irritated. “Of course it’s true. I’ve sensed something off about her for a while. As expected, she’s not a good person! Fatty, I bet you wouldn’t be defending her if she weren’t good–looking!”
“Who are you calling a fatty?”
“I’m talking about you, of course!”
“Ahem, ahem…”
The crowd was on the verge of quarreling when they heard someone coughing, and within a second, they all returned to their workstations.
Sheena stepped out of her office to get some water.
Wendy noticed that she was about to make her own coffee, so she hurried over to assist. “Ms. Sheena, I’m sorry. I was just about to bring your coffee over.”
“It’s fine.”
Back at their workstations, everyone watched with unease, sneaking glances toward the break room and wondering if Sheena had heard anything.

Later, Sheena returned to her office, holding her coffee and appearing indifferent. As she settled into her seat, Wendy followed her in.
Concerned, Wendy asked, “Ms. Sheena, did you hear what they were saying just now?”
Sheena nodded.
“Do you… know about the trending topic online?”
Trending topic?
Seeing Sheena’s confused reaction, Wendy quickly explained, “Last night, someone posted a video online of you splashing red wine on Ms. Moore at the banquet. Then, someone revealed that you were allegedly the third party involved with Ms. Moore and Mr. Freeman’s relationship this morning. The internet is buzzing with all of this now.‘
Sheena froze.
Wendy handed her phone over for Sheena to see.
“T
Sheena quickly scrolled through, finding an edited video of her splashing Jennifer with wine. It did look quite audacious, and the comments below were full of harsh words, disturbingly offensive.
However, to think that Jennifer would claim that Sheena was the third party in her relationship with Elijah.
Was Jennifer trying to dig her own grave?
