Chapter 124 There Is Some Oil on the Ground
“It seemed that someone was looking at me just now.” Violet frowned and replied with some uncertainty.
Hearing the words, Jessie looked around, “Maybe you’re too sensitive.”
“Perhaps.” Violet didn’t think about too much, and then reopened the bidding book.
Jessie looked at the time, “There are still ten minutes left. The bidding will begin. I just saw those companies. Except for some clothing companies, there are also many studios, including three new studios like us. We have little chance of winning.”
Violet chuckled, “Let alone those studios, see those clothing companies. How can we defeat them!”
Jessie sighed, “I didn’t expect this at first, but I heard that this bidding is a top-level project that won’t be inferior to ‘Born of Fire’. I thought that as long as we get this project, maybe our studio will be able to become the company in advance. Who knows that there are so many competitors! I would not sign up if I knew it early.”
Violet tucked her hair, “It’s okay. Since we’re here, just try to fight for it. I’ll go to the bathroom first.”
After speaking, she put down the bidding book, got up and left the hall.
When Violet walked into the bathroom, she saw Phoebe standing in front of the sink and applying makeup. Violet was taken aback for a moment. At the same time, she felt that the world was so small that she could meet Phoebe everywhere.
Phoebe didn’t expect to meet Violet here, so she was also a little surprised.
Then she quickly put the lipstick into her bag, asking with a questioning tone, “Why are you here?”
Violet also came here to apply makeup. She calmly walked to another sink, turned on the faucet and washed her hands, then wiped her hands while replied, “This is the bidding conference. You think why I am here?”
Phoebe understood at once, and narrowed her eyes, “Are you also here to participate in the bidding?”
Violet lifted her chin, “Is there any problem?”
“Ridiculous!” Phoebe rolled her eyes at Violet in disdain, “I heard that you have already resigned from the Murphy Group and have not yet found the job. Where did you qualify to participate in the business bidding?”
“Didn’t Talia tell you?” Violet took out the powder and opened it.
Phoebe frowned, “Tell me what?”
Violet smiled, “Of course I have a studio. My studio has also dealt something with your studio. It’s just not long ago. You probably haven’t forgotten that my studio is called Rebirth, right?”
“What? Rebirth is yours?” Phoebe was so shocked, and her voice instantly became sharp.
Violet nodded, “Yes, so surprise, right? Speaking of which, Director Hunt, the factory department of my studio was built with your 20 million dollars, and the money for the machines was also the opportunity that Talia gave me. She let me get 20 million from Dad. Thank you and your mother!”
Knowing the truth, Phoebe’s face was distorted and her hands trembled. She was so furious.
It turned out that the studio which took her to court and made her lose everything was actually Violet’s!
It was Talia that made her most angry. Talia knew that Violet was the owner of Rebirth, but she didn’t tell her. Besides, Talia was still her mother!
Taking a deep breath, Phoebe tried her best to suppress her anger, and sneered, “I really didn’t expect that I was framed at by you!”
“Frame?” Violet pursed here lips, “I don’t agree what you said. When did I frame you? Didn’t Director Hunt give me the money yourself? If it weren’t that you suppressed my studio, would I have this chance to get the money?”
“Huh, bitch!” Phoebe glared at Violet, “Violet, that’s not over. I’ll remember this grudge. I will let you know that my money is not so easily to get. Today’s bidding, with me, you can’t win successfully.”
After speaking, Phoebe zipped up the bag and went out.
Violet shook her head with a smile. She did not take Phoebe’s words to heart.
Because even if Phoebe did nothing, she couldn’t win the bid.
After finishing the makeup, Violet adjusted her hair and packed her bags, ready to leave the bathroom and go back to the bidding hall.
But when she walked out of the bathroom, she slipped.
She fell so badly. Not only did her head knock to the ground and it caused a short-term dizziness, but the most serious thing was her feet. At this time, she felt a heart-wrenching pain.
She shook her head. After shaking off the dizziness in her head, she sat up on the ground with a painful face. Looking at her right foot, she suddenly gasped, “Hiss…”
Because the ankle was swollen so high, like a steamed bun. It was obviously sprained.
Besides, it was also very serious. It seemed that she couldn’t walk anymore.
So Violet had to take out her mobile phone to call Jessie over to help her.
After learning that Violet had fallen, Jessie rushed over immediately.
“Violet.” Jessie helped Violet up.
Violet stood firmly, leaning on Jessie and smiling palely, “Jessie, I’m sorry to trouble you.”
“What are you talking about? We are best friends!” Jessie glared at Violet displeased, and then asked, “Why did you fall?
Hearing her asking about this, Violet then remembered what happened before she fell. She squinted her beautiful eyes, “When I finished the makeup and came out, I stepped on something slippery, which seemed to be oil. So I slipped and fell.”
“Oil?” Jessie was stunned, “How can there be oil at the bathroom door?”
“I don’t know, but it feels a lot like that.” Violet said, pursing her lips.
“Let me see.” Jessie helped Violet to the wall, letting Violet stand by the wall. Then she let go of Violet’s arm, went back to the bathroom door and squatted down, looking carefully on the ground.
Finally, Jessie saw a little shiny water stain near the place where Violet fell.
“It should be this.” She murmured, then stretched out her hand, rubbed a little bit of the water stain with her index finger, and twisted it with her thumb, then her eyes widened, “Violet, it’s really oil.”
“Sure enough!” Violet slowly clasped her fingers which supporting the wall.
It was normal that there was some water outside the bathroom door.
But if it was oil, there was obviously a problem. The most important thing was that there wasn’t oil when she went in, but when she came out, there was a pool of oil on the ground. It was obvious that someone wanted to harm her. As for who it was, Violet already had suspicious.
“Jessie, can I smell it? I want to know what oil it is!” Violet said in a deep voice.
Jessie nodded, got up and stretched out her fingers.
Violet lowered her head and smelled it. A faint scent lingered on the tip of her nose, “It’s the essential oil for skin care.”
Moreover, she had smelled this smell on Phoebe. It seemed that her suspicion was not wrong.
“Violet, did you think of something?” Seeing the anger on Violet’s face, Jessie asked again.
Violet bit her lip, “It’s Phoebe. She deliberately poured it on the ground to make me fall.”
“Damn it! Too despicable and shameless.” Jessie stamped her feet with anger, but then realized something and looked at Violet, “Why is Phoebe here?”
“Just like us. She came to participate in the bidding. We met in the bathroom. She told me that she would not let me win the bidding. I think she poured oil here in order to let me get injured. Then I would voluntarily give up the bidding.” Violet replied with cold light in her eyes.
