CHAPTER 149: CHAPTER 149: AFTER ALL, YOU’RE NOT THAT INNOCENT EITHER

The purchasing manager shrugged, "But they would rather cancel the contract and compensate, there’s nothing we can do about it."

Even if we get compensated, without the actual goods, no matter how beautiful the design drafts are, there’s nothing we can do.

It is indeed a rather troublesome issue.

Eleanor Sterling lowered her eyes, "Don’t worry, I’ll personally go talk to the suppliers and see what their attitude is."

An hour later, Eleanor Sterling first visited a high-ranking supplier. He was in his office, and it seemed there were guests inside. The secretary asked her to wait.

Eleanor Sterling and Ann quietly sat on the sofa waiting.

Soon, the office door opened.

"Alright, thank you, Mr. Langley. Thea’s Jewelry is counting on you."

Seeing that familiar figure, Eleanor Sterling raised an eyebrow; it was Selena Lockwood.

Selena Lockwood is currently working at Thea’s Jewelry. Rumor has it she’s Chelsea Sterling’s college roommate, who became her best friend by flattering her.

Chelsea Sterling doesn’t work herself and relies on Faye Sterling, so she introduced her to work at Thea’s Jewelry.

Selena Lockwood is a fair-weather friend. She used to curry favor with Chelsea Sterling, and after joining Thea’s Jewelry, she started befriending Faye Sterling.

She often followed Faye Sterling in mocking Eleanor Sterling with cold sarcasm.

Seeing Eleanor Sterling coming in person, a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes, as she was not at all afraid that Eleanor Sterling could change the supplier’s mind.

After all, Faye Sterling is Mrs. Faulkner, which supplier wouldn’t cater to her?

Selena Lockwood is quite good-looking, but her family situation isn’t great. She has always envied Eleanor Sterling, a pretty heiress.

Later, after knowing she wasn’t favored in her family, she looked down on her, as if she could find a sense of superiority by stepping on Eleanor Sterling.

Selena Lockwood approached Eleanor Sterling and whispered softly with a sneer, "Eleanor Sterling, it won’t work even if you come personally. Mr. Langley has promised not to cooperate with you, unless..."

Her tone was suggestive, viciously taunting, "You spend a night with Mr. Langley? After all, you’re not that clean."

Mr. Langley is quite lecherous. Without Faye Sterling backing her, Selena Lockwood might also be harassed.

Now that Eleanor Sterling is here, with her appearance like this, wouldn’t Mr. Langley have designs on her?

A trace of schadenfreude flashed in Selena Lockwood’s eyes.

Eleanor Sterling glanced at her and said blandly, "Not that clean, are you talking about yourself?"

To climb up, Selena Lockwood had made quite a few sacrifices.

"Hmph, pretend to be strong all you want. I’d like to see what skills you have to change Mr. Langley’s mind."

After saying this, Selena Lockwood walked away with a proud look.

Ann watched Selena Lockwood’s departing figure and couldn’t help but spit, "Snobby, what are you acting all high and mighty for."

"Let’s go." Eleanor Sterling had no time to deal with such people, she said to Ann.

What’s more important now is to recover the company’s losses.

If she can successfully persuade Mr. Langley, others should change their minds as well with his lead.

In the office.

The secretary came in, "Mr. Langley, the person from Celeste Jewels has been waiting outside for quite a while. Do you want to see them?"

Leon Langley frowned, clearly a bit impatient, "No."

With Faye Sterling sending someone over to pressure him, how could he dare offend The Faulkner Group?

"Alright, I’ll go out and inform them immediately."

Leon Langley waved his hand carelessly, "Just say I’m in a meeting, get rid of them for me!"

Outside the office, the secretary, looking helpless, approached Eleanor Sterling, and spoke, "Miss Sterling, I’m sorry, but Mr. Langley has an important meeting, and I’m afraid he doesn’t have the time to see you."

Ann’s face immediately darkened, looking very dissatisfied.

"We’ve been waiting for so long, even if he’s going to a meeting, he should at least..."

Eleanor Sterling raised her hand to stop Ann. Receiving Eleanor’s command, Ann could only keep silent and step back.
