"Honesty is the most important thing in a cooperation, " Leila said, looking at Paula. "If you can't even tell me your real motive, I don't think I will ever cooperate with you."
"Since the first day Autumn entered the company, I have disliked her. The way she always pretended to be superior and innocent ticks me off. After she was fired, she found a rich husband and became the General Manager of Cloud Advertising Company. It's unfair. Why is she always favored by fortune?" Paula lamented after a long hesitation.
"That's why I'm reaching out to you and join forces. You can take away her lover, while I... steal her career. We are going to destroy her life bit by bit, " she continued with a cold smile.
Leila liked what she heard. 'I don't care about her career, but I yearn for... a romantic love, ' she sighed, dreaming of Charles.
"Then... I hope this works. We have to cooperate well." Leila agreed, offering her hand first.
"I hope so." Paula gave a complacent laugh. "Leila, I need you to do me a favor today."
"Already? Ok, what do you want me to do?" Leila responded, brows raised. 'As we are now partners, I will try my best to back her, ' Leila thought excitedly.
"Weren't you on good terms with Autumn before she was dismissed from Cloud Advertising Company? I need you to steal the proposal plan and execution details for the Giant Promise Company project that she is working on, " Paula whispered to Leila.
"Why do you need that?" Leila asked in confusion.

"You may be mistaken. Don't worry. We are good, " Autumn said coolly. "I introduced you to work in Shining Company, and Charles is satisfied with your performance there. That's enough."
"Please listen to me, " Leila insisted. 'So Autumn never regarded me as a threat?' she wondered.
"I don't know why my colleagues blamed me for seducing Mr. Lu. They must have made a mistake. Autumn, you're my savior and I'll never betray you. I am afraid that you may get angry at me after hearing rumors like that. So I took the afternoon off and came here to talk to you."
"Really?" Autumn was skeptical. She had seen through Leila's thoughts. 'She wants me to believe the rumors about Charles and her.' she thought. "You think too much. I trust my husband and firmly believe that he will never cheat on me. There is nothing to worry about."
"Well..." Leila smiled bitterly and continued, "I feel much better."
"Anything else?" Autumn asked, as she saw that Leila had no intention of leaving.
