Crises in Love novel Chapter 441

"Looks like she can kiss her friendship with Sophie goodbye!" Janice said with a chuckle, shaking her head in disbelief. "Oh my god! This is the funniest thing I've heard all year! I haven't laughed this hard in ages! Hanging out with you guys is like it's Christmas every day!"

"You really think Jessica had a chance in hell of keeping in touch with Sophie?" Geneva piped in, her tone dripping with derision. "Sophie never really liked her to begin with. If it wasn't for that favor she owed me, she wouldn't have given Jessica the time of day. But I gotta hand it to Sophie, she nailed the job."

"Spill it, what happened next?" I urged, eager for more gossip.

"Well, Sophie just started giving her the cold shoulder. Jessica was like a cat on a hot tin roof, she was anxious." Geneva recounted with such vivid detail, you'd think she was watching a live show.

"I see... No wonder she was ignoring her mom's injury, all frazzled and fuming!" It suddenly clicked why Jessica was so restless and hot-tempered when Hazel got burned the other day.

"Exactly! She was lashing out at everyone, like a rooster that's had its feathers ruffled, always ready to scrap!" Geneva continued with a sneer. "One day at the office, Jesper slapped her across the face. She stomped her foot and stormed out."

"Why?" I asked, intrigued.

Geneva raised an eyebrow and I quickly added, "Was it because of that embezzled ten million?"

"Yep! But when Jesper mentioned hiring a new finance director, she came back, apologizing and taking her lumps. Jesper laid it out for her clear as day, saying if she so much as touched the company's money again, she'd be out on her ear!"

"How did Jesper find out about Jessica dipping into the company funds?" I inquired.

"She delayed a supplier's payment, only five days late, but I always nail the tasks you give me." Geneva gave a mock salute, which made me chuckle.

"You told me to make her life a living hell, right? So I deliberately held off those five days to give her a taste of purgatory. Only after I returned her investment with interest did she hustle to pay the supplier.
