?Chapter 96:


    The scandal spread like wildfire.


    “Who would’ve guessed Ms. Lopez was someone’s mistress?”


    “I had my suspicions. She makes a decent sry, but those designer handbags and high-end jewelry? No way she bought those on her own.”


    “She used to look down on Elena, thinking she had a sugar daddy, but it turns out she was the one with a dirty secret.”


    Though thepany didn’t dismiss Ruby, the humiliation was unbearable. Unable to face her colleagues, she resigned on her own.


    With that issue handled, Monica called for Elena.


    Pouring a cup of coffee, she set it down in front of her with a ttering smile. “Elena, we still need you for the Spencer Group deal. I always knew you were the one who could secure it. Mr. Spencer specifically requested to meet with you. Would you mind heading over to finalize the contract?”


    Elena was not the type to forgive easily. But now that Ruby had been dealt with, she saw no reason to make things difficult for Monica. Taking the documents, she left for Spencer Group.


    Felix was already waiting at the entrance. As soon as Elena signed in at reception, Felix appeared, looking relieved.


    “Miss Harper, wee. I’m Felix Wace, Mr. Spencer’s assistant. Please follow me.”


    Felix had been worried she wouldn’t show up, but now that she was here, he could finally rx.


    Inside the elevator, he stole a few nces at her. Wesley had been surrounded by beautiful women before, but Elena carried an elegance and presence unlike any he had seen.


    No wonder Wesley insisted on meeting her.


    Once they stepped out, Felix led her straight to Wesley’s office. Standing near the doorway was Elyse.


    For a brief moment, jealousy flickered in Elyse’s eyes. She tried to hide it, but Elena caught the subtle shift in her expression. With a forced smile, Elyse greeted her, “Elena, you’re here. I misunderstood Mr. Spencer’s instructions. Now that you’ve arrived, go ahead and sign the contract.”


    She brushed aside her previous attempt to take credit as if it were a minor mistake.

    Elena let out a low chuckle. “If I remember correctly, Mr. Spencer didn’t even acknowledge you yesterday. It’s quite puzzling how you misinterpreted the situation.”


    Elyse’s expression stiffened, though she struggled to maintain her pleasant facade.


    There was no reason for Elena to gloat. Securing the contract meant nothing if she couldn’t produce a sessful design.


    Feigning sincerity, Elyse sighed. “I was only looking out for thepany’s best interests. If I offended you, I’ll apologize. I just hope you won’t let personal grudges affect the business.”


    Even now, she couldn’t resist taking a jab at Elena’s reputation.


    Elena lingered in the doorway, prompting Felix to say, “Miss Harper, Mr. Spencer has been awaiting your arrival for quite a while now.” Elena shot a significant look at Elyse before proceeding into Wesley’s office.
