Louise thought, ‘It had to be. Other than this matter, every argument between us was started because of Grace. This damned bitch!’
The more Louise thought about it, the angrier she became. Brian was ignoring her again. She had nowhere to vent her anger, so she left the office and went to look for Grace.
She rushed to the office angrily, but she did not see Grace.
She looked around the coffee room but did not see anyone. Louise thought, ‘Where did this bitch go during work hours?
She crossed her arms and stood at Grace’s workstation. She asked the colleagues around her, “Where is Grace?”
The female colleagues in this department were basically on Louise’s side. When they heard Louise’s questioning tone, they added fuel to the fire. “Grace, I haven’t seen her for a long time. Jewel, did you see where she went?” Jewel Hawkins replied, “No.”
When a male colleague heard this, he wanted to say something on behalf of Grace. However, due to Louise’s status as the CEO’s fiancée, he did not dare to say anything. He could only sigh secretly and thought, “The world of women is really filled with scheming. Grace had clearly left her desk less than ten minutes ago.
When Louise heard that Grace had left for a long time, her expression turned cold. She looked at her watch and said, “It’s not even lunchtime yet, and she has been gone for so long. When did the company’s rules become so lax? She is so bold!”
After Louise finished speaking, she glanced at Erin Fox. “Erin, I think if you don’t control her, she will probably ride on your head.”
It was already time for lunch. Everyone went to eat. Erin understood what Louise meant and nodded. “It’s time to teach Grace a lesson!”
Louise finally felt a little better. She turned around and went upstairs to find Brian for lunch.
When they got off work in the afternoon, Grace was forced to work overtime by Erin, who used the excuse of her slacking off at work.
Grace said, “Erin, I just went downstairs to pick up a package earlier. Seeing that it was almost noon, I went straight to the canteen to eat. I’ve already done the work you arranged.”
“It’s already bad that you don’t reflect on your mistakes, but you’re even finding excuses for being lazy. What do you take the company for? Because you’re slacking off at work, the document needed for tomorrow morning is not ready yet. I’ve sent the materials to your email. You can leave after you’re done with that tonight!” Erin did not give her a chance to resist. She picked up her bag and left.
As soon as Erin stepped out of the door, she bumped into Camren in the corridor. She immediately put on a flattering smile. “Camren, why are you still here?”
Camren nodded slightly. “I am sending some information to the Design Department.”
“Camren, you are a loyal man to the company. Don’t overwork yourself.” Erin left after saying a few flattering words.
After passing by the door of the Development Department, Camren stopped for a moment and walked towards the Design Department.
Grace opened the email and read the contents. Her scalp was a little numb. In order to complete the presentation, she would probably have to stay up until midnight again.

She called Carson and told him that she was working overtime that night. Then, she rolled up her sleeves and started working.
She happened to be on her period recently and was not in good spirits. She had a headache from checking the information. and her eyes were dizzy.
She held her aching abdomen and poured some coffee into her up. She was planning to make herself some coffee.
As soon as she got up from the chair, she felt dizzy. She took two steps and felt light-headed. In the next second, she lost consciousness and fell to the ground.
