Jillian sized Jean up. Jean was free to enter and exit the HT Group now. Jillian had been with Terence for a long time, and she could tell that he didn't like Jean at all.
She smiled warmly. "Miss Gu, Mr. Chen is still busy. The new year is fast approaching, everyone is busy. Since I have been working overtime for a month, Mr. Chen told me that I go home early to rest today. I'm afraid he has to work very late."
"What?" Jean's face darkened at Jillian's words. "You're Terence's secretary. You're off duty now. Do you think it's appropriate to leave Terence alone to work overtime?"
Jillian took a deep breath and said, "Miss Gu, this is Mr. Chen's arrangement. If you think it's not appropriate, you can tell him."
"How can you talk to me like that? Do you even know who I am?" Jean was so angry that her face turned pale. She had been waiting here the entire afte
we sit together?"
Without waiting for a response, Jean plopped into an empty seat. She looked at Terence hovering over the table. "Sit down, Terence. We all know each other, there is no need to be shy."
"He doesn't want to sit here because he knows that it is shameful. You, on the other hand, are shameless. Did I invite you to come sit with us?" Julia asked coldly.
No matter how thick-skinned she was, Jean still felt embarrassed by what Julia said. She looked at Julia aggrievedly. "Do you still hate me? I know you are not happy that Terence is with me, but it has happened. Julia, you have to learn to accept the reality, and we all have to learn to accept it."
"Hurry up and leave with your man. You are not welcome here," Consuela said in a cold voice.
"Julia, I'm your sister. Can't you forgive me?" Jean ignored Consuela and gave Julia a pleading look.
