Chapter 52 Feel Sorry for Renee
Before going to bed in the evening, Renee received a Line message from her younger brother Timothy.
“Sis, you’re okay now, right? Mom came to see you today and she did go a bit overboard. I’ve explained the bar situation to her as well. Don’t take it to heart. Your mother–in–law isn’t easy to get along with, but she can’t make decisions for your husband. As long as you two are in love, nothing else matters. You married my brother–in–law, not that old woman.”
Renee had mixed feelings when she saw this sentence.
Her mother indeed favored boys over girls, but she had a decent relationship with her brother, which was why she was so conflicted.
She really needed to be independent and strong, otherwise, how would she raise her children in the future?
“Turn off the lights, go to sleep.”
Quincy came out and lay down beside her. Renee turned to him and said, “I have something I want to discuss with you.”
The man squinted his eyes, “Speak.”
“Could I continue designing things besides being your secretary?”
Quincy opened his eyes, “When have I ever stopped you from continuing to design? You can keep taking on the work from the Design Department, as long as you can handle it.”
“I could.”
A glint flashed in Renee’s eyes. She was still a newcomer, but if she

continued to gain experience in the Design Department, she would definitely be able to find a good job in the future if she decided to leave Quinjoy Group and switch jobs, relying on her work experience at Quinjoy Group.
Quincy responded, wondering how he had never noticed before how easily she was satisfied.
Actually, upon reflection, the money she had taken from herself over the past two years had essentially all gone to cover the financial holes in her maternal family.
Renee herself, on the other hand, didn’t cost him much money.
Most of the clothes in the cloakroom were bought for her by her grandmother, and there seemed to be few pieces of jewelry or bags that were worth showing off.
Quincy thought about this, his brow furrowed. How had he not noticed before, how his wife had been living such a frugal life?
The next day, Quincy directly greeted the Design Department. Although Renee was in the Secretary Department, she still had a part–time job in the Design Department.
The inside scoop spread the fastest within the group.
The fact that Renee herself moved from the Secretary Department back to the Design Department was fervently discussed among everyone in private: “My God, this is a real inspirational story.”
“Yeah, initially being a nobody in the General Affairs Department, then suddenly becoming a popular figure in the Design Department, and then experiencing a plagiarism scandal, getting fired. Then making a
comeback, becoming the president’s secretary, and now returning to the Design Department as a part–timer. Isn’t that a motivational story?”

“Would Renee succeed in taking over? Lisa’s position as Mrs. Patel was hanging by a thread.”
“Actually, there wasn’t any direct evidence to prove that Lisa was Mrs. Patel. Who knows, she might just be someone trying to climb the social ladder?”
Lisa was hiding alone in the bathroom stall, listening to these conversations, she directly broke her newly made nails.
She looked gloomy: “Renee, why did you come back?”
Why did you always have to compete with me?
In that case, don’t blame me for being ruthless.
Lisa sent a direct Line message: “Bro, find some time to take action. I can’t stand it anymore.”

Two days had passed,
A colleague came over and asked, “Renee, have you used that sachet? How was it?”
The corner of Renee’s mouth twitched slightly, she finally came to ask.
She had wondered how long Lisa could endure.
She hesitated for a moment, then lowered her voice, “Actually, I don’t know if I should say this, but I have a friend who is a traditional medicine practitioner. He happened to see my sachet. He said it contains a lot of medicinal herbs like crocus, which might make it difficult for women to conceive if used.”
Upon hearing this, my colleague’s face changed dramatically: “I’ve been trying to conceive recently.”

Renee’s words quickly spread throughout the Secretary Department.
In the afternoon, several colleagues had taken leave to go to the hospital for a medical check–up.
The next day, when the inspection results came out, the female colleagues from the Secretary Department were all angry.
The sachet that Lisa gave indeed affected fertility.
When everyone was preparing to confront someone, a colleague timidly spoke up: “But have you forgotten Lisa’s identity? She is…”
Lisa had another identity – Mrs. Patel.
Everyone thought of this and fell silent again.
Renee, however, looked at everyone and said, “Who told you she was Mrs. Patel’s? Isn’t it just a coincidence every time?”
The colleagues exchanged glances. Yes, it was always just Lisa’s vague explanations, they hadn’t even seen Lisa with Quincy alone a few times.
It still wasn’t as close as Renee and Quincy were.
Those who could get by in the Secretary Department were all shrewd individuals, realizing that they had all been misled by Lisa.
Soon, Lisa arrived at the Secretary Department, her eyes red from crying, and lamented, “I’m sorry, this was my mistake. This sachet was originally prepared for Mr. Patel, and it has always been effective for him. But I didn’t realize that it shouldn’t be used by women. I’m really sorry, Ive caused harm to everyone. I will definitely take full responsibility for this.”
After speaking with tears in her eyes, Lisa bowed 90 degrees to everyone, choking with emotion.
The more humble the attitude needed to be, the more humble it was. The

However, a few female colleagues didn’t want to buy it anymore. They used to think Lisa was a nice person, but now, why did they feel that Lisa was so pretentious?
