Chapter 206: Comparison 

Janet had been thinking about Charis ever since Ethan told her about this woman.

Charis worked for the Larson Group and was about to return from abroad, which meant they would beseeing eachother often

“You don’t look well today. Didn’t you sleep well last night? Today is a big day. Cheer up!” Gerda pattedJanet’s shoulder

The two had become close again after the news about the fraud group got televised.

Janet felt it was normal for Gerda to misunderstand her after hearing the rumors because the two hadbecome friends only after Janet joined the company. After all, Gerda didn’t Janet well enough.

“Big day?” Janet looked listless.

“Miss Turner is finally returning to the company today after three years abroad. She is a legend. I heardshe and Mr. Larson had started the company together — she was one of the core founding members.Later, she left the country to explore the overseas market. She is only about four or five years older thanus. I admire her a lot!” Gerda adored Charis and spoke at length about her, oblivious to the look onJanet’s face.

Janet’s lungs constricted. It felt as if a giant rock was sitting on her chest.

She sounds like an amazing woman,” she said, forcing a smile.

When Janet returned to her desk, she heard everyone talking about Charis.

Just then, the glass door of the department flew open, and everyone unanimously turned around.

A graceful woman walked in, surrounded by all the senior executives of the company. A beautiful smilegraced her lips, revealing her pearly teeth. She was wearing a simple black suit paired with exquisite

makeup. She looked calm and confident with an air of authority.

Janet’s colleagues gasped in awe as she walked in.

But somehow, Janet didn’t like Charis. It was probably because she felt insecure about her relationshipwith Ethan. As everyone admired her, Janet couldn’t help but look at herself. She was dressed in plainclothes and wasn’t wearing any makeup. She didn’t bother to even put on lipstick before coming to work.

All of a sudden, she felt dwarfed.

After greeting the other employees, Charis walked toward Janet, sizing her up. Suddenly, she was on herguard. It was not because of how beautiful Janet was.

However, there was something in her eyes. She looked innocent yet enchanting. Her eyes seemed tohave the power to lure anyone, Charis’ heart leaped to her throat. She was the princess in her familywho always got everything she wished for. She had always been proud, yet she somehow felt inferioraround Janet.

Today, she had worn an expensive outfit and styled herself to perfection to impress Brandon. However,Janet looked breathtaking even without any makeup. Charis knew she wouldn’t be able to compete withJanet if she brought her style game on.

Charis’ heart sank. No wonder Garrett kept telling her how important Janet was to Brandon. After all, noman could resist a beautiful woman like her.
