Chapter 93
No one dared to jump to conclusions regarding Wilson and Daphne’s divorce until it was publicly announced.
As long as they had not declared anything to the public, then Daphne remained as Wilson’s legitimate wife.
However, Yvonne had become widely known as someone who Wilson adored and cherished deeply. Hence, Joe was left in a difficult position, making it hard for him to pick a side.
Daphne hated being misunderstood by others because of her connection to Wilson. Whether it was sympathy or ridicule, she couldn’t stand it.
It was as if she had seen something filthy on the street, and the sight of it made her wish that she could take a detour and stay far away from it.
She said calmly, “Mr. Bran, Wilson and I are going through the divorce procedures. My work has nothing to do with him, so you don’t need to let my identity influence your decisions. Yvonne isn’t wrong about the endorsement issue either. Until a contract is signed, we’re all equal competitors. You can just proceed with your usual standard procedures. I understand completely.”
Her composed response quickly eased Joe’s concerns. He did not mean to look down on Daphne; he was just being a little wistful
He sighed and said, “I always thought that you and Mr. Farrell were a perfect match. Life sure is unpredictable.”
Daphne did not respond to his comment and maintained a polite demeanor.
Only those involved in the marriage itself could truly understand its joys and sorrows.
What was the use of being “a perfect match? Both parties would still need to work together to make the relationship work
Joeled Daphine to the Sherry Group’s meeting room.
Inside, Yvonne and another woman were already sitting inside, casually sipping coffee and chatting
When they saw Daphne and Joe enter the meeting room, the woman stood up to greet them politely. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Yeager. I’m Jean Walsh, Yvonne’s new manager
Wonne, on the other hand, did not even litt her eyes. She said mockingly, “Why bother greeting her? She might not even appreciate it.”
Daphne did not have the patience to deal with wonne’s snarky attitude and ignored her altogether. However, out of respect for Jean’s greeting, she extended her hand in return. “Hello, nice to meet you,” Daphine said.
Then, she added a pointed remark with a sarcastic tone, “Ms. Walsh, I’d advise you to tread carefully in the future. Don’t let your artist drag you into trouble and cost you your
“Some people are shameless and quick to shut blame onto those around them when things go south. They have powerful connections to back them up and protect them, but you’re alone as you’re just an employee.”
Hearing the veiled jab, Yvonne glared at her angrily. “What do you mean by
mean by that, Daphne?”
Daphne shrugged nonchalantly. “Nothing in particular, Just a friendly reminder from an industry veteran to a newcomer, Unless, of course, you think that the shoe fits? Sensing that the atmosphere was getting tense, Jean quickly tried to smooth things over, afraid that the two women would start fighting if they continued talking. She said, “Thank you for your reminder, Ms. Yeager. Yvonne’s nice and she treats me very well, so I’ll do my best to help her.”
Daphne met Yvonne’s angered gaze calmly and said nonchalantly, “She’s nice? Fine. If you say so.”
Nice? what a joke!
Dephine was born with sharp features, and she tended to look fierce when she wasn’t smiling
Coupled with the fact that she had been living with Wilson for so long, her presence carried an overwhelming sense of authority that overpowered Wonne’s easily
