Flirted Wrong, Married Right-Chapter 777: Barefaced

Upon hearing Yara Reagan’s words, Evelyn Clayton showed a faint bitter smile on her face.

Yes, she has become Shannon Sinclair, and there is no longer Evelyn Clayton in this world.

At least not until she finds the real culprit behind her father’s death.

"But the Sinclair family treats you well," Iris Lockwood said with a hint of hope, "surely they will understand you..."

Iris stopped midway, as if she couldn’t continue, and awkwardly closed her mouth.

Everyone was well aware in their hearts.

When the day comes where it touches the Sinclair family’s interests, they might not remain as harmonious as they are now.

Because at the end of the day, Evelyn Clayton is not of their blood.

This is not to say that the Sinclair family is bad, but who would really be willing to give their all for a foster daughter with no blood relation?

Thinking about what she had gone through yesterday, Iris Lockwood’s eyes dimmed.

If such a thing happened to the Sinclairs...

"The shareholders’ meeting is still a few days away, I’ll think about it carefully," Evelyn forced a slight smile, "Before that, I’ll handle the matters in the company’s fashion design department first."

Yara Reagan nodded, "Don’t worry about things here, I’ll take care of Iris."

Evelyn nodded, and softly said, "Thank you both."

Early the next day, Evelyn arrived at the company on time.

Most of the people in the fashion design department had already gathered, and a few of Laprite’s employees chose to follow Evelyn to the new department.

Vivian was among them.

When Evelyn heard the news as soon as she arrived at the office, she was naturally very happy.

She headed to the designer’s office, about to knock and enter, when she saw Winnie Wyatt rushing over.

The two collided head-on, and when Winnie Wyatt saw Evelyn, her eyes immediately flared with rage, as she glared at Evelyn.

"You poached Vivian, didn’t you?!" Winnie cut straight to the chase, showing no regard, "Shannon Sinclair, how did I not see before that you could be so two-faced?!"

Evelyn raised an eyebrow, "I’ve been out of the office most of the time these past few days, how could I have poached Vivian? Or do you think Vivian is so easy to manipulate, that just a few words from me would make her willing to leave with me?"

Winnie was incensed, "Who knows what tricks you played again!"

Yesterday, a notice was sent from the president’s office, announcing that Winnie had become Laprite’s latest design director.

Upon hearing the news, she had initially felt an inexplicable mix of emotions.

Winnie had thought that with Shannon Sinclair and Director Sinclair’s ambiguous relationship, Shannon would have said something to the director, preventing her from successfully taking the director position.

What Evelyn had said that day, Winnie had originally not believed a word of it.

But she never expected to actually become the new director.

Evelyn watched Winnie with poised calmness,

"Alright, even if, as you say, I privately talked to Vivian, it still requires her willingness; how can I force or threaten her?" Evelyn raised an eyebrow gently, "Can’t you use your brain to think?"

Winnie was furious, "Shannon Sinclair, stop being so sanctimonious! To think I felt bad for treating you like that before, now I finally see through you——"

Before she could finish, the designer’s office door suddenly opened.

A young woman wearing a long white dress with a leather short vest came out.

The girl’s long hair was casually tied up, with a leather newsboy cap on her head, a lady’s cigarette clamped at her ear, and her makeup-free face was full of irritation.
