Aurelia blinked in surprise, "Why? Even if we fight tooth and nail, it wouldn't affect the vitality of Astral Enterprises."
Arnold wagged his slender finger, "They're not after Astral Enterprises. They're after you, waiting for the right moment to poach you."
"Wow, isn't my sister a talent then?" Avery laughed.
Aurelia didn’t see it as a good thing. She smirked in self-mockery, "This just shows that they have no faith in me, thinking I'll lose and have to leave."
Avery glanced at her, "Is your opponent tough?"
"Her sister is the boss's sweetheart, and she is the darling. She's indulged in every way possible. No matter what she does, the boss turns a blind eye. Even if she does wrong, the boss will cover for her. What chance do I have against such a person?"
Aurelia became more and more frustrated, and her resentment was like a surging river, continually flooding her.
Avery showed a trace of sympathy. He put his arm around her shoulder, "Then you better jump ship. The last time I saw your boss at the Muse Club, I knew he was unreliable, his personal life is chaotic. Although he is Arno's brother, he is nowhere near as good as Arno."
Aurelia took a sip of her juice, unconsciously looked down at her slightly bulging belly.
She wondered if all this negative energy would affect the baby.
But their biological father, indeed, was in her bad books, the worst kind!
Arnold served her a piece of abalone, "If you really want to switch jobs, take your time and choose the most suitable one."
"Yeah," Aurelia nodded.
Let her new design be the perfect end to her time at Astral Enterprises. By then, she would also be ready to leave.
She would leave Astral Enterprises, cut ties with him completely, and never cross paths again.
After dinner, Aurelia returned to her room.
She was a bit tired, so she fell onto the bed, not wanting to move.
A large shadow loomed over her, blocking the light above her head.
