Shane nodded. “Yes, I am serious.”
What a turn of events… Despite being her intern, I didn’t know anything about this rivalry between them! So that’s why Ms. Mackenzie is in contact with all the other top designers except Mr. Dylan… It all makes sense now! Natalie thought to herself as she watched Mr. Dylan walk away.
“Is Mr. Dylan angry? What if he won’t see me anymore now that he knows who my mentor is?” she asked worriedly.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Dylan isn’t the type who would let his personal emotions get in the way of things,” Shane replied while adjusting his shirt sleeve that she had creased earlier.
“I see…” Natalie nodded in response, but she was still a little worried.
Shane was about to say something when a service staff approached them. “Mr. Shane.”
“What is it?” Shane asked coldly.
“Ms. Graham is asking to see you. She’s in the lounge.” the service staff replied politely.
“Ms. Graham? As in Jacqueline Graham?” Natalie asked.
Shane frowned. “Got it. Thank you.”
The service staff nodded politely and walked away.
“I’ll be right back,” Shane said as he placed his hand back into his pocket.
“Okay,” Natalie replied with a forced smile on her face.
She watched Shane disappear into the crowd before making her way towards the bathroom.
She touched up her makeup at the sink when she overheard a conversation taking place just outside the bathroom door.
“Layla, are you sure you saw the newbie enter Mr. Shane’s lounge?”
“Yeah, I’m serious! Now that you mentioned it, she looks kind of familiar! I feel like I’ve seen her somewhere before… Ah, I remember now! It’s Jasmine who was sued for plagiarism a while back!”
The two service staff exchanged glances and shook their heads.
“I saw her holding something in her hand when she entered, though. She had a manic look on her face too!” one of them added.
Natalie felt a chill down her spine as she thought of Stanley.
Stanley tried to stab Shane with a scalpel just two days ago! Could it be that Jasmine is thinking of doing the same thing too? Given the fact that Shane had called off their engagement, it’s quite possible that she’d do so out of revenge!
Natalie didn’t dare think any further and made a run for Shane’s lounge after confirming its location with the service staff.
She was puffing and panting as she arrived outside his lounge a few minutes later.
As she was about to open the door, she heard the sound of something shattering inside, followed by a high-pitched scream.
That’s Jasmine’s voice!
