Violet stuck to her point, saying, “But if we kick Jessica out, we won’t have to get tangled up in this mess anymore.”

“And then what?” Carissa replied calmly. “What if something similar happens again? Honestly, I think this whole situation with Jessica is a good opportunity. It gives us a chance to learn and handle things better next time. The way I see it, we should set aside our bias and investigate thoroughly. If the accusations are true, we can kick her out. But if they’re not, we give her a chance. How about that?”

She added, “Vivi, it’s really important to set aside our biases. Every woman who’s been cast out could end up being labeled with all kinds of accusations. If we just jump to conclusions, no one will want to come to us.‘

“I know what you’re saying makes sense. If we’re thinking about the workshop, it’s the right approach. But on a personal level, I just can’t accept Jessica. And she’s not exactly innocent. We should just throw her out. Don’t you dislike her?” Violet grumbled.

“I do,” Carissa answered flatly.

“Isn’t that enough? If we both hate her, why should the workshop take her in? I was trying to think about the bigger picture, thinking we should investigate things first. But looking back, didn’t she and Molly cause all the trouble from the start? She had no good intentions. She couldn’t get into the workshop, so she tried to ruin it instead. Now, the people from the Marquis of Ironridge’s family want to destroy us too. Just thinking about it makes me furious.”

The more Violet spoke, the angrier she got.

“And you said we shouldn’t let personal feelings get in the way when taking people in. But our whole reason for doing this in the first place was to help. So, why is it okay to help, but then not okay to let our feelings guide us? Without personal feelings, Skye Embroidery wouldn’t even exist.

“And the reason I hate Jessica so much is because she and her mom picked on you. If anyone should be angry at her, it’s you. Why are you still thinking about helping her? If the workshop ends up taking in people like her, it’d be better off shutting down.

“You said you hate her too, so why are we even considering keeping her? Someone like her deserves to be kicked out and left to starve or be mistreated. Honestly, when people say we’re being hypocritical, I’m starting to agree with them.”

Carissa knew her friend’s temper well, and the latter rarely spoke so harshly, However, after Jessica appeared at the workshop and was kicked out, she slandered the place with Molly. So, it was natural for Violet to be furious

spreading about the workshop now. The things people were saying also kept getting worse. On top of that, what she saw today pushed her to the breaking point. She couldn’t hold it in any longer.

Carissa waited for Violet to calm down a little before saying, “How about this? Let’s meet with Jessica. Afterward, we’ll kick her out right then and there if you still don’t want to take

her in. How does that sound?”

“I don’t want to see her, and I don’t even want to go to the workshop,” Violet said, clearly agitated. “The place’s been filled with townspeople throwing rotten vegetables and smelly eggs. What was once a decent place is now a mess.”

“Alright, then.” Carissa sighed, relenting. “How about we have Claire investigate if the abuse claims are true?”

When Violet heard Carissa still planned to investigate, she felt a wave of frustration. “In the end, you still don’t agree with me. You don’t want to kick Jessica out. I’ve already done my own investigation, but honestly, you don’t need to investigate further to know that she is trouble.”

She stood up to leave. “Do whatever you want.

Carissa watched her go but didn’t stop her, knowing she must feel uncomfortable and angry because Jessica’s presence had brought serious trouble to the workshop.

Lulu, who had been listening outside the door, entered as Violet left.

She asked, “My lady, if we just kick her out as Ms. Spencer suggested, wouldn’t that solve everything? Why get into a conflict with Ms. Spencer over this?”

Carissa looked up. “Lulu, have you considered that maybe the people stirring up trouble aren’t just targeting Jessica but the workshop itself?”

Lulu was confused. “Why would anyone target the workshop? Isn’t it because of Jessica?”

Carissa sighed lightly. “Right now, yes. But from the moment we started the workshop, we faced a lot of opposition and criticism. A lot of people didn’t want the workshop to succeed. With how big this mess has become, do you really think a few servants could be behind it all?”
