Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine Read Online Free

Chapter 127: The room fell into an oppressive silence.

After all, anyone who made such a blunder would face dire repercussions.

If the news spread and outsiders caught wind of Rodrigos grievances, it wouldnt just tarnish the companys imageit could send its market value spiraling down the drain.

Allison opened her mouth, ready to speak, but before she could, one of the young women could no longer contain herself and leapt to Allisons defense.

Marc, how can you say this has nothing to do with you? Mr.

Lloyd, Marc is the project leader.

I can vouch for that.

Miss Clarke only helped him mix the sample fragrance.

The mistakes that followed cannot be laid at her feet! This woman had never seen eye to eye with Marc, and she stood her ground against him.

You tried to claim credit earlier, and Miss Clarke let you have it.

But now youre crossing the line.

From formulation to coordination, all that work was Miss Clarkes.

You took the glory, and now you want to dodge the blame.

How utterly shameless! Others joined in, rallying against Marc.

Exactly, Marc.

You were the one steering the ship in the early stages, reporting the numbers.

Mr.

Lloyd, we can dig through the internal network and find those figures you initially reported.

Count me in! I just checked; Marc reported 4,500 bottles.

He cant wriggle out of that! When its time to work, good luck finding Marc.

But when its time to take a bow, hes more enthusiastic than anyone else! Unforgettable stories on gⱯlnσν????????s․ço???? Many in the company were already fed up with Marcs antics.

This incident was merely the last straw, especially since his actions had clearly jeopardized their own interests.

So, many stepped up to the plate.

Marcs face turned a deep shade of red, fury radiating from him.

You… Youre all lying! He never thought hed be stabbed in the back like this! Allison understood that while some were genuinely defending her, others were merely protecting their own interests.

She didnt mind.

She had encountered too many fair-weather friends to be surprised now.

Kellan, listening to the uproar, remained calm, tossing the project documents in front of Marc.

Even a child could tally that up.

But you cant get the figures straight.

Why? Because youre too mired in office politics.

If you can do the job, then do it.

If not, pack your bags and leave! Feeling the weight of accountability, Marc quickly shifted gears, adopting a pitiful demeanor.

Mr.

Lloyd, I didnt mean it.

I just forgot.

I honestly didnt intend anything by what I said earlier… The office was already brimming with annoyance, and his whining only fueled the fire.

Allison shot him a chilling glare that silenced him instantly.

Right now, we must focus on fixing the problem, not placing blame.

The damage is done, regardless of who caused it.

Facing the crisis, Allison analyzed the situation with a clear head.

The priority is to appease Mr.

Carman and expedite production.

Hes known for being particularly picky, and he praised our service this time.

If word gets out that he has complaints about us, it would be a significant embarrassment.

I propose we quickly draft a compensation plan for Mr.

Carman and maintain clear communication.

Kellan nodded, agreeing with Allisons organized approach to handling the situation.

Miss Clarke has a point.

The focus must be on rectifying the issue.

After the meeting, Allison, in her role as head of the lab, began orchestrating the team with precision.

Everyone, ramp up production according to the formula I provided.

There must be zero mistakes this time.

If any issues arise, hold off until I return.

Well address them then.

Once she assigned the tasks, she grabbed her bag and made her way to Rodrigo.

Upon reaching their agreed spot, she addressed him directly.

Mr.

Carman, we sincerely apologize for the trouble weve caused you.

One of our team members miscalculated, and there are no excuses.

We completely understand your reluctance to withdraw your complaint.

We want to make amends.

Allison had arranged to meet Rodrigo at a teahouse.

As soon as he arrived, she offered a heartfelt apology and personally poured him a cup of tea.

I have prepared your favorite coffee.

We can discuss compensation measures shortly.

Rodrigos anger began to dissipate the moment he saw that Allison had taken the time to apologize in person.

After all, Allison had previously suggested adding more iris to the fragrance, which had elevated the formula beyond his expectations.

He had formed a positive impression of her, and that made him more receptive.

When he caught sight of his favorite tea, his eyes sparkled.

Miss Clarke, how did you know this was my favorite? Last time you visited our company, you were wearing a fragrance that had this tea as a top note.

A persons fragrance often reveals their taste and acts as their invisible calling card.

Nobody wears a scent they dislike.

So, I took a shot in the dark and ordered it.

Im glad I guessed correctly.

Her simple yet thoughtful words immediately bridged the gap between them.

By now, Rodrigos ire had mostly vanished.

As long as the order was fulfilled on schedule, he would gladly retract his complaint.

To his surprise, Allison then presented him with a bottle of perfume.

This is another fragrance I developed.

He took a whiff and couldnt help but praise it.

This perfume has a traditional elegance.

The top note is tea, while the base note is sandalwood.

It truly exudes a sense of classic refinement.

Allison smiled and replied, I believe this fragrance suits you perfectly.

As an apology, I would like to give it to you.

Regarding the rest of the order, we will work overtime to ensure it is completed within a day.

Rodrigo, already enamored with the perfume, burst into hearty laughter, his previous concerns fading away.

Its just a minor issue.

Im surprised to see you here, considering it was clearly an employees blunder.

As long as the order is fulfilled, Im more than happy to let it slide.

He handed her his business card.

Miss Clarke, your perfumery skills are truly exceptional.

I adore every fragrance you create.

Would you consider joining my company? I would be thrilled to offer you a very competitive package! .
