Chapter 263 - Good Show(1)

Jade had not expected Simon to offer his help towards getting rid of the unwanted evil in her life. She had thought he might see her as an unforgiving and sinister person but fortunately that wasn't the case, because soon they were on their way to the conference room to wait for the big bosses to arrive.

Jade and Simon had only arrived at the door to the conference room when Stephanie also appeared, approaching them from the opposite side. She gave Simon an acknowledging nod who also replied with a nod of his own as he tried to hide his distaste for her.

He wasn't just angry at her for trying to sabotage a colleague, but for also trying to implicate an innocent man with a reputable career at the company. To him vicious women like Stephanie were the ones he hated the most.

He looked at Jade before stepping into the room, leaving them behind.

"I heard your dismissal is going to be a fun show" Stephanie said tauntingly. A mocking smile glistening in her eyes.

Jade heaved a deflated sigh. "Yeah, so I heard. I hope it will be fun enough for you" Jade replied.

"Sure it should be" She said with a sinister and malicious smile. The thoughts of getting Jade out of the company was giving her immense joy.

"I'm glad it will. Just be careful in there. You don't want to stutter too much or say inappropriate things" Jade said with hidden meaning making Stephanie frown for a minute. She didn't understand what Jade meant.

'Why would she stutter in there? Or say inappropriate things. What does she mean by that?' She thought but she quickly shook those nonsense words out of her mind. Jade was obviously trying to mess with her because she knew she was definitely going to be thrown out of the company. She chuckled out loud.

"Just stop being stupid. You're done for and this should teach you a lesson" She gloated at her, making Jade hiss. Stupid people were always stupid and could never see the writings on the wall.

"Well I hope we both can learn from it" Jade said before turning to walk into the room. She suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Stephanie's hand.

"And Stephanie, your nails looks nice" She said with a fiendish smile. Stephanie looked at the hand she was looking at. It was the one with a missing nail. She understood Jade was trying to mock her for walking about with incomplete nails.

She hissed. She didn't know where or when her press on nails had fallen off. She had been engaged with a lot of stuff both personal and work related to go have a new set, hence why they were still on her finger.

She looked at Jade who was already walking into the conference room.

"She can laugh all she wants, but that doesn't change the fact that she won't be disgraced out of this building soon" She sneered in her heart. After the close of work today she'll definitely re-do her nails before someone else points it out. She sighed before walking into the conference room.

Stephanie planted herself on the seat directly opposite Jade. She had a smug and happy smile on her face as she fixed her gaze on Jade.

Jade locked gaze with Stephanie, her eyes filled with so much anger and hatred for her but she managed to keep a stoic look on her face. She scoffed and looked away from her annoying face, which was irking her out.

'And why the hell did her nose grow so big? Tch, so annoying'

Soon people started to troop into the room for the emergency meeting which has impromptly called by the president. And in no time it was filled with the same faces who had been there this morning to watch Jade's most embarrassing moment, and even more departmental heads as well as the disciplinary committe of the company. It was a full house. Extra seats had to be brought in and even that was not enough cause some other staffs had to stand behind the round table.

Jade turned to look at Simon in surprise. She wondered what he might have said or done to make the president pull such a full house for a meeting just because of her. His nice gesture made her heart swell with so much happiness.

"This had better be good" The president said as he strolled into the office in long strides. He lolled himself on the seat at the head of the table and looked at Jade and her boss, Simon.

Stephanie observing the way the president was looking at Jade, she couldn't help but smile happily.

'The bitch is done for' She cheered in her head.

"Ms Peterson, I heard you have something to reveal to us. Please get to it" He said in a curt tone.

Simon gave her an approving nod as he nudged her to stand up. Jade felt a quick wave of anxiety sweep through her as she stood to her feet. Her eyes scanned through the room full of people. Some faces were familiar while some were not. Her eyes settled on Mr Alan who was also present but he ashamedly looked away from her face. She composed herself and looked ahead to the two heads of the company.

"Good afternoon, My name is Jade Peterson" She introduced herself.

"Earlier this morning an unfortunate incident happened in this very room and I could have been accused for misconduct or probably sacked for unprofessionalism, but I was graciously given sometime to prove myself, and that's why I am here to do that" She

paused and brought out her phone while Simon placed a Bluetooth speaker on the table and Jade connected it.

Stephanie scoffed out when she heard and saw what Jade was upto. She didn't see why Jade was creating extra drama when she could easily accept her sack letter and buzz off. But who was she to complain. If Jade wanted to embarrass herself the more then she'd gladly watch and see the end of the show, she reasoned to herself, a triumphant

smile splitting on her face. But her smile was short lived when she heard her voice coming out from the bluetooth speaker making her eyes to grow wide in shock. She snapped her head to look up at Jade. Her face turned gloomy while her hands shook.

"You bitch! Turn that off this instant. How dare you try to frame me?!" Stephanie roared as she jumped to her feet, attracting the attention of the people in the room who turned to look at her.

Jade turned and gazed at her with an inscrutable gaze.

"Ms Stephanie, do you recognize the voice?" She asked with an innocent tone.
