Emily was not completely gullible. She knew that Tina was deliberately trying to make her life a living hell, but she chose to bear it.
Having spent the past few days with Tina, apart from her endless bragging and provocation, Emily learned that Tina and Jacob had known each other since childhood. They drifted apart when Tina had gone to M country for two years, but Jacob would eventually marry her. That fact was unchangeable.
When Emily found out that Jacob had been promised to Tina since childhood, she felt regretful. She had had sex with Jacob, and they even had an affair...
Driven by guilt, Emily decided to tolerate Tina's transgressions.
After all, Tina was only a girl whose spoiled attitude was just a byproduct of her lavish upbringing. Emily decided to keep a civil and professional relationship between them.
However, what Emily didn't know was that Tina had deliberately made up all those stories in order to make her withdraw in disgrace.
It was true that Tina's family and Jacob's family were on good terms in the past, but their relationship was only limited to their grandfathers. After Tina's grandfather passed on and the power fell into Tina's parents and her brother Mark, their friendship with Jacob's family gradually faded. Sometimes there were rivalries between the two families.
It was purely by chance that Tina met Jacob, the adopted son of Gu family. She fell in love with him at first sight, and had been pursuing him ever since.
The Tao and the Gu family intended to reunite their bonds with marriage, so that their relationship would gradually blossom again, but Jacob did not accept Tina.
Tina, however, was unwilling to give up, so she waited for him. Meanwhile, Jacob was in no hurry to get married, so he was unaffected by Tina's resilience.
It wasn't until Tina almost killed a girl from a wealthy family by pushing her into a deep lake in the Gu's mansion for being in love with Jacob, that Tina's parents decided to send her off the M country for her education.
From the day she got back, her mind was completely preoccupied with Jacob. Anyone who dared to have a second look at Jacob was considered an enemy.
The next day, Emily, who stayed up late designing, handed the restored designs to Tina again.
Tina who grew tired of creating difficulties with Emily day after day, decided that Emily's work was tolerable this time, so she mercifully let Emily go.
The nex
her, stupefied.
For a while, the LA staff on the spot looked at each other with utter confusion. They just couldn't believe the once aggressive rich girl would suddenly accept such an easy compensation...
However, they did not linger on that for too long. If Tina didn't have any problems, they didn't have any problems complying with her demands.
Emily bowed her head sincerely to Tina, and said,"It was our negligence. I am sorry for the inconvenience you have suffered."
Emily took the blame upon herself. She would not admit that LA company sold fake products. Because they hadn't had a proper investigation yet, but since an apology was due, as a representative of the LA company, she had to do what was right by the company.
After Emily, the staff behind her followed suit, apologizing in chorus,"Sorry, Miss Tao."
Dissatisfied, Tina sneered,"It's not enough."
Emily made an extra effort to speak kindly,"Miss Tao, what would you want me do to show our..."
"Emily, I want you to kneel down and make an apology."
All of the sudden, the entire room went silent.
Looking at Tina with disbelief, Emily asked,"Miss Tao, what did you say just now?"
"I said, get down on your knees and apologize to me." Tina burst out laughing. Her eyes as beautiful as a crescent moon, but full of malice. She then said,"That's all you have to do to put this behind us."
Of course, Emily heard her loud and clear, her expression stagnated and her body stiffened.
Soon Emily realized that what Tina actually wanted was not to settle the dispute, but she wanted to insult Emily and trample on her self-esteem.
