Chapter 39
The HR boss was a middle–aged man named Tristan. He looked pretty irritated, but when he saw Chloe he froze for a split second, then quickly hustled her out of his office “Or, there’s an executive meeting about to start. What the heck are you doing here? Get your butt to the conference room.”
“Mr. Tristan, I need to talk to you about…”
“Whatever it is, it can wait. The meeting is more important. Go now, we can yap later.”
Chloe frowned but didn’t argue Until her resignation was processed, she was still a big cheese at the Olson Group. Attending a meeting was par for the course.
But when she saw Keira in the conference room, a chill ran down her spine. Since when was Keira part of the Olson Group’s top executives?
And when Keira saw her, those beautiful eyes flashed with a challenge only they understood. Chloe tightened her lips, gave her a cold once–over, and headed to her usual

Chloe always sat in the same spot for meetings, by the window, not too far from Lance. She’d chosen it randomly at first, but over time, no matter how often other folks switched seats, nobody ever snagged hers
As Chloe made her way to her seat, passing other execs, they all greeted her. Some were formal, some casual, but all were respectful.
When Chloe first joined the Olson Group, everyone looked down their noses at her. They thought the company was just clutching at straws by bringing her on board when the business was on the ropes.
But against all odds, the Olson Group started to get its act together. They remembered how Chloe had convinced Mr. Olson to hold a press conference, apologize to the public, and promise not to screw up again – a move that had saved the company from going belly up.
Chloe stuck to her guns, making amends and apologies, and persuading old investors to stay while attracting new ones. It was a risky gambit, borderline crazy. Nobody else would’ve even dared to think about it, let alone do it. But Chloe pulled it off
Later, she led the development of a perfume called “Simply You” which created a sensation in the fashion world. Three years on, it was still the Olson Group’s best–seller. Every move Chloe made proved her PR savvy and her talent as a perfumer. From initial doubt and scorn, people came to genuinely admire and respect her.
Standing next to Lance was Keira, her eyes filled with intense loathing and resentment. But along with the jealousy and bitterness, there was a smug sense of satisfaction. No matter what Chloe did, Keira saw herself as the ultimate winner and that hadn’t changed
