When Freesia founded Enchanted, she did not need Darcie as a partner since she had the necessary expertise. Her parents also provided the startup capital.

Despite her ordinary background and lack of talent, Darcie was a very hardworking person who knew how to deal with people. People like her were the best in business negotiations. Also, Darcie was also once Freesia's classmate.

Stella figured that Freesia chose Darcie as a business partner for those two reasons.

But jealousy was a terrifying thing.

Freesia had caring parents, a loving husband, and a bright son. Also, she was exceptionally talented in her professional field.

Meanwhile, Darcie had to scrap together money to be a shareholder of Enchanted, faced financial difficulties during the company's initial stages, and even had to support herself and her child after her ex- husband's early demise.

With how life had treated Darcie, it was impossible for her not to be jealous.

However, people dealt with jealousy differently-some suppressed it and turned it into motivation, while others plotted to seize what they envied.

After Freesia's death, although Wenham held the majority of Caline's shares, he knew nothing about perfumery. The company was essentially under Darcie's control. She leveraged the reputation of Caline and Mrs. Saun in the high society and rose to prominence.

Stella thought that if Freesia had been alive, all of this would have been hers.

Assuming Darcie was the one responsible for Freesia's death, she and Jaylene would obviously benefit the most.

Clearly, Darcie did not suppress this jealousy. She did not even mention Freesia's name in the company's history.

But she was very good at disguising her ambition. She spoke highly of Freesia in front of Wenham and even opposed it more vehemently than Wenham when Jaylene wanted to join Caline at first. Of course, that was not her original intention. She just needed an opportunity for Jaylene to prove herself and join Caline legitimately.

But the true heiress of the Saun family suddenly returned, and Wenham even gave Stella all of his shares without consulting Darcie. That was why she got anxious and hurriedly recruited Jaylene to the company.

Caline was different from The Velvet as Darcie had been in control of Caline for over twenty years, and her influence in the company ran deep. Removing her from Caline would be much more difficult. Stella felt a headache coming on as she thought about that.

However, when she arrived at the restroom, she heard the sound of sobbing from one of the cubicles.

It was Wren from the finance department, who had gotten a dress from Stella when she joined the company.
