?Chapter 435:


    With the transmitter teetering on the edge of catastrophe, Charlette’s face clouded with worry, her heart plummeting. “Where’s Mr. Spencer?” she inquired, a hint of urgency in her voice.


    “Felix mentioned he’s tied up in a meeting.”


    At that moment, Elena’s voice sliced through the tension like a knife. “There’s a bug in the separation code of theunch program.”


    “That’s preposterous! There can’t possibly be a problem!” the base manager shot back, his tone defensive. “Theunch and separation programs were scrutinized by a team of over ten experts. There’s no way a bug slipped through! If you’re not an authority, don’t make wild statements.”


    The base manager’s refusal to admit a code error stemmed from a fear of ountability for the potential copse of a multi-billion-dor endeavor.


    Cathy rolled her eyes at Elena, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Just because you’re sitting pretty on the eighth floor doesn’t mean you’re quite something. How dare you speak out of turn like that?”


    Cathy often visited Edgewing.


    In the past, Wesley had spent more time at Edgewing than at the Spencer Group, and Cathy frequently apanied him there. Despite Wesley’s indifference toward her, Cathy continued to grace the premises with unwavering enthusiasm.


    The receptionists wouldn’t dare turn Cathy away.


    For years, Cathy’s presence had be a familiar sight at Edgewing.


    After Elena joined thepany, many employees secretly anticipated Cathy’s inevitable return. True to their expectations, they were about to witness quite a spectacle.


    “Cathy is the daughter of the Garrett family. Who in the could be more qualified to stand by Wesley’s side than her?” whispered one employee.


    “Exactly! Being pretty is one thing, but Elena, aside from her looks, doesn’t hold a candle to Cathy’s qualifications,” another chimed in.


    “Cathy and Wesley have beenpanions since childhood. How could some attention-seeking woman possiblypete with that history?”


    The murmurs throughout the office were relentless, with most eyes fixed on Elena, eagerly waiting for her humiliation.

    Elena possessed striking beauty and had been brought into thepany unexpectedly, assigned directly to the prestigious eighth floor. Yet, she maintained a low profile, dedicating herself to fulfilling promises and researching projects while ignoring thepany’s endless gossip. Because of this, everyone assumed she was merely a woman who had seduced her way into Wesley’s bed based solely on her appearance.


    Wesley, with his devastatingly handsome features, stood as the head of the Spencer family and reigned as the most eligible bachelor in all of the.


    Countless women secretly harbored admiration for him.


    Within thepany, Kaya wasn’t the only one—many others yearned for Wesley but dared not reveal their feelings.


    Before Elena’s arrival, Wesley had maintained an aloof and dignified demeanor, showing no interest in women, which had kept everyone’s emotions in check. Even


    If they couldn’t have Wesley for themselves, they could take sce in knowing no other woman could either.
