“Of course, just wipe your tears and snot and come with me,” Jane said.
Jane handed April a few tissues, and after a moment, led her outside.
“Mrs. Sutton, I heard about what happened earlier. I apologize on behalf of April,” Jane said with a slight smile as the golden light accentuated her silhouette.
“Oh no, how can we accept that? You’re the boss here. We should be thanking you,” Mrs. Sutton quickly stood up to greet Jane.
“Mom, why are you like this?” Cassandra was displeased and tugged at Mrs. Sutton’s collar before being glared back at by her.
“Well then since you put it that way, I’ll give my opinion too.” Jane’s expression turned serious as Mrs. Sutton eagerly listened.
“In today’s society, for someone new like April who needs to establish herself quickly in her job field – money is their biggest asset.”
Jane made sense with every word she spoke which earned agreement from Mrs. Sutton too.
“Nowadays almost everyone has the habit of saving money; however from what I know about April working here for several months now – she hasn’t saved any money at all because it has all been taken by her sister.”
Mrs. Sutton looked towards Cassandra while she shook her head in denial.
“If you want to rely on April to take care of you when you’re old, then maybe consider taking better care of her daily so that she can focus on work instead of being disturbed by various demands from her sister.”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Sutton fell into contemplation.
Jane’s words hit the nail on the head, and she glanced at Cassandra beside her. “I understand. I will keep an eye on her in the future, so you don’t have to worry.”
Seeing Mrs. Sutton agree, Jane felt relieved.
“Well then, I’ll go back for now. I’ll come to visit you when I have time.”
After Jane left, Mrs. Sutton proceeded to scold Cassandra.
This made Cassandra even more dissatisfied. Not only did she fail to buy what she wanted, she also received an undeserved scolding.
She watched Jane’s figure as she left and glared at her fiercely in a place where no one could see.
Seeing that Cassandra didn’t come to bother her further, April felt very happy.
While Mrs. Sutton was busy scolding Cassandra, April followed Jane and walked out together.
“Jane!”
April called out to Jane from behind, running slightly. Her face was still slightly red, perhaps from crying just now. “Thank you so much this time. You always help me overcome difficulties.”
April expressed her gratitude to Jane, who waved it off.
“It’s nothing. Once these matters are resolved, you can work better, which benefits both me and the company.”
Upon hearing this, April smiled slightly at Jane.
Meanwhile, not far away, Marco observed the scene before him.
He couldn’t help but miss April and came to her place. Along the way, he overheard people next to him discussing April.
Curious, Marco inquired and learned that April was in trouble again.
Thinking of April’s timid appearance, Marco couldn’t rest easy and immediately hurried over to check on her.
Unexpectedly, from afar, he saw April with reddened eyes. It felt as if his heart was being twisted in pain. He was about to approach her when he noticed April in conversation with someone.
Marco squinted his eyes and saw Jane standing there, which made him halt his steps.
He vividly remembered Jane’s warning tone. If he approached directly and was seen by Jane, knowing her straightforward personality, who knew what she might do.
Thinking of this, Marco decided not to move forward. Seeing April’s smile, his heart gradually settled.
As long as April was fine, he felt at ease. He looked at April’s slender figure from a distance and smiled.
After handling April’s matters, Jane went to the Realm of Literature and Art.
She was now Elis’s disciple and naturally needed to visit the Realm of Literature and Art frequently to learn new things.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked in, she encountered Isabella.
Although Isabella was her senior, the scene of their confrontation at the gathering was still fresh in Jane’s mind. With that in mind, Jane’s expression turned sour.
“Isabella.”
Unexpectedly, Isabella was very friendly and waved at Jane from a distance.
Helpless, Jane had been advised by Elis to be cautious, so she greeted Isabella.
“I’m organizing an art exhibition tomorrow. There will be many people attending. Would you like to come?”
Jane was taken aback and didn’t expect Isabella to invite her publicly.
However, tomorrow…
Jane frowned. Just as she had finished dealing with April’s situation, she might have to rearrange her work for tomorrow if she were to attend.
“No, I have something to do tomorrow, so I won’t go.”
Seeing Isabella looking a bit dispirited, Jane could only comfort her softly, “If I have time, I’ll definitely come.”
With the words spoken to this extent, Isabella could only nod in agreement.
However, this scene was witnessed by a few people who were preparing to go to the art exhibition with Isabella.
Even Jane refused Isabella’s art exhibition, it seems she really has a big ego.
Speaking of this, the people shook their heads in disapproval, but being Elis’ disciples, they couldn’t say much.
After Jane left, Cassandra arrived at the Realm of Literature and Art.
She was also on the invitation list, and her mood was somewhat unpleasant due to Mrs. Sutton’s scolding just now.
As she approached, she overheard several people discussing Jane.
This undoubtedly piqued Cassandra’s interest, and her expression turned sour at the thought of Jane.
If it wasn’t for Jane, she would have been respected here, holding a brush and ink.
“What are you talking about?”
The people glanced at her and didn’t think much of it, so they shared what they had just witnessed, “I just witnessed Isabella inviting Jane to participate in the art exhibition, and Jane rejected her.”
The group of people began to discuss, and Cassandra’s face grew darker.
“She’s always like this, isn’t she? Always thinking she’s so great and looking down on everyone.”
Upon hearing this, the people exchanged glances and immediately gestured for her to stop, “Are you crazy? She’s Elis’s disciple now. If she hears you saying that so loudly, you’ll be in trouble!”
“So what? You’re afraid of her, but I’m not.”
Cassandra had a fearless look, and the thought of Jane’s arrogant demeanor just now made her even more angry.
“She just came to my house and boasted about buying art supplies for me. When I heard that, I felt so embarrassed, so I quickly rejected her.”
Upon hearing this, the people’s eyes lit up.
“Really? You have that kind of status in front of Jane?”
“Of course.” Cassandra had a proud look on her face. “She is my sister’s boss, and I’ve heard so much about her. Mistreating employees and spreading rumors to my parents just now, which resulted in my sister being scolded by my parents for a long time.”
The people sighed and marveled, never expecting that Jane, who appeared bright and glamorous on the surface, would be such a person behind the scenes.
