Chapter 142
With just one line, Luna immediately shifted the dynamic.
Autumn was now the one in the wrong, and if she said anything else, she’d look petty and immature.
Classic case of hiding behind power.
Jasmine scoffed from the side. “Autumn, things are different now. Luna’s the lead on your current project. You should be calling her your manager p>
Just imagining Autumn getting stepped on by them from now on gave Jasmine immense satisfaction.
All the frustration she’d felt from being humiliated before vanished in an instant.
This felt so good.
Selena couldn’t hold it in any longer.
She snapped, “Manager? Her? She’s just a bastard born from her mother being the other woman. What’s there to respect?
“Oh, what now? Mother and daughter both homewreckers, and suddenly you think that’s something to be proud of? The shamelessness is unreal p>
Thinking about how Autumn’s marriage had been destroyed because of Luna made Selena furious.
She was going through the same pain Autumn once had, so she knew exactly how it felt.
It was worse than death.
Her ex’s first love hadn’t even been half as vile as Luna.
At least he didn’t dare parade his mistress around or ask the wife to show respect.
And now Luna expected people to treat her like a manager in front of the real wife?
What a joke. Absolutely disgusting.
Jasmine nearly choked from rage, her lip twitching.
She snapped, “And who the hell are you? Just a dog following Autumn around. What gives you the right to talk to us like that?
“Typical birds of a feather-both mouthy, no substance. All bark and no bite.
“You’re just jealous of Luna, aren’t you? No matter how you look at it, you can’t compare. So, all you can do is mock her, right p>
In her eyes, Luna was untouchable-her goddess.
No one had the right to insult her.
Back then, it was thanks to Luna that they’d gotten out of trouble.
And now Autumn and her friend had the audacity to humiliate her?
Jasmine wasn’t holding back anymore.
Autumn stopped Selena before she could snap again and pointed to herself.
“What exactly do I have to be jealous of? Jealous that she stole what wasn’t hers? That she manipulates everyone around her?
“Or that she’s proudly shameless while sleeping with someone else’s husband p>

Luna looked up at Autumn with a calm, dismissive glance.
Just as expected-still the same loud, trashy woman, ranting like some reality show drama queen.
Utterly distasteful.
Not a trace of composure.
She gave a faint smile. “I’ll be sure to report this to your CEO p>
The implication was clear-Autumn had disrespected a partner and deserved to be punished for it.
Jasmine lifted her chin without a shred of restraint. “Do you believe that with just one word from Luna, you two would be packing your things and kicked out on the spot p>
The level Luna stood at was something Autumn could never reach, no matter how hard she worked her entire life.
All she had going for her was that sharp tongue.
Just imagining Autumn being reduced to nothing more than someone serving tea in their presence filled Jasmine with joy.
Autumn gave a faint smile. “You’re welcome to try p>
With that, she grabbed Selena and walked off without looking back.
Jasmine was so furious her cheeks puffed up. “Luna, did you see how arrogant Autumn was? She didn’t even show basic respect to a partner. It’s infuriating p>
Seeing that smug face made her want to walk over and slap her.
God, it was unbearable.
Luna curved her lips into a cold, mocking smile. “Ignore her. Let’s go p>
A woman who needed a man just to stay relevant in the company? Not even worth her attention.
