Chapter 43 Conspiracy

It was growing cold in late autumn night. Winter was putting footsteps in the meadow. Cool breeze always blew when people relax their minds. Cold night was swallowing up the last breath of midsummer, making people stand upright and look at changing weather. But this glorious city of Jiangbei was like it never feared the cold. Even though it was late at night, the streets were still bustling. It was hustle and bustle in markets. The cold wind and bitter weather didn’t stop people from coming out. A Starbucks cafe in Jianbei was also crowd full of people, busy in gossips and sarcasm, where people are making conspiracies against others. Which were colder and bitter than the cold wind. Like the two ladies sitting in the corner. Mandy Adam handed the scarf the same as Jane’s, to Marina Brown, "My cousin, it’s cold outside, I chose it for you specially. There are only six limited editions of this brand in the whole city. " Marina Brown looked at the LOGO on the scarf and frowned lightly. She did not reach for it. "You just changed your job, and you don’t have any money at hand. Why are you wasting your money?" "You take care of me when I was in innovating technology and I didn’t buy you anything. Now that’s a little bit from my heart for you." Mandy Adam said it lightly and flatteringly and pushed the scarf to Marina Brown’s side. Marina Brown glanced at the expensive scarf and did not take it. She just said indifferently, "If you need any help, just tell me. I’m your cousin. Your parents entrust you to me. I’ll try my best to help you if I can." She knows Mandy Adam very well. Mandy Adam would never spend that money on her if she did not want anything in back. This scarf looks light and expensive. If you wear it over, you don’t feel its weight. Marina Brown was determined and she refused to take over the scarf. Mandy Adam could not hang it on her face, so she had to laugh and say, "You know, I was fired by Innovation Technology because of that bitch, Jane..." Mandy Adam was almost gritted her teeth when she talked about Jane and the smile on her face turned into a grim one. "How could I have fallen to this level if she hadn’t been conspiring behind me?" Marina Brown had guessed that Mandy Adam would talk about being fired but she was still blaming others. She couldn’t help sighing. She coldly added, "Although I don’t usually have much contact with the business department, I still know Jane. She is not a clever person. As a matter of your dismissal, it’s only in your mind and maybe you know best." Marina Brown was Mandy Adam’s cousin. She took care of Mandy Adam in her work but she preferred on the right side when things were going wrong. "Cousin, what you see is that woman’s disguise. You don’t know how shameless she is." Mandy Adam looked around and said in a low voice, "She used to be in Kyoto she seduced her brother-in-law and her family kicked her out." Marina Brown thought this was someone’s private matter and also a thing of the past, and no one knows who was wrong. She did not want to believe in Mandy Adam’s words. When Mandy Adam saw that Marina Brown did not answer, she thought that Marina Brown had believed in her words and then she added, "You see by yourself that even her family did not want her. We didn’t know what she had done in her past and still doing..." "You came to me to talk about these things?" Suddenly, Marina Brown interrupts Mandy Adam’s words with a loud voice. "I want to leave if you have nothing else to say." Without saying anything, Marina Brown got up to leave. Mandy Adam quickly hold Marina Brown and said, "Cousin, wait!" She took out her cell phone in a hurry opened the photos she had taken two days ago in the Mall and show it to Marina Brown in front of her, and said with an evil smile, "Look, cousin, it’s not me who slandered her. This woman knows that Carter always has a wife, but still she seduces her." Marina Brown glanced at the picture. The men and women were holding hands. The men were tall and handsome, while the women were slender and elegant. The woman looked at him with bright eyes, while the man’s eyes seemed to be stuck on the woman. Gaze was full of gentleness and delicacy that it made people envy them. Marina Brown was also somewhat surprised after looking at this picture, not because of anything else but because she saw for the first time that a person as cold as Carter could have looks, elegant and graceful. Seeing Marina Brown’s in a state of shock, Mandy Adam thought she had made another step. She quickly said, "Cousin, I have an idea. You send these things to the internal mailbox of the Innovation Technology Company so that everyone can see her true face. Chairman Carter used her at those times. Then she will be left with no reputation and couldn’t face anyone." Marina Brown returned to her mind, sighed deeply and shook her head. "Mandy Adam, these are other people’s private lives you and I shouldn’t care about them." Mandy Adam just wanted to deal with Jane. She didn’t listen to anything else. Marina Brown once again refused her. She felt full of grievance and indignation. She pulled Marina Brown’s hand and tightened a little, "Cousin, now only you can help me. This is very easy for you, why don’t you help me?" When she was dismissed Marina Brown did not help her. Now she is still unwilling to do such a small favor. Marina Brown shook her head firmly, shook Mandy Adam’s hand, turned around and picked up her bag. Seeing Marina Brown leaving again, Mandy Adam stamped her feet in anger and said, "Whose fucking cousin are you?" Marina Brown stopped and looked back at her with a cold strange look, "I cannot help you with this. And I advise you to not do silly things anymore. Focus on your work." Looking at Marina Brown’s leaving Mandy Adam trembled with anger. Her face became terrible. Marina Brown was her only hope. If she doesn’t help her, how can she throw Jane out of Innovation Technology? That day in the mall. After looking at the sweet love between Jane and Edwin Carter, she made up her mind to make Jane feel bad no matter what price she pays. There’s no reason to think about that woman. What’s good about her? Normally she does work and work. A dead woman with superficial integrity. And who do dirty things behind the scenes? Why did everyone help her? What was she? "Miss Mandy Adam, Miss Marina Brown won’t help you. I’ll help you." Just when Mandy Adam felt that the whole world has refused to help her, a soft voice sounded behind Mandy Adam. She looked back, a little stunned, but soon recovered her composure and sneered, "You."
