“What are you talking about?” Rachel was baffled by what Wayne was saying.

Wayne didn’t say anything but looked at Anna, who was standing beside him.

“Wayne is now the head of the finance department at Gabriel Group,” Getting the hint, Anna explained.

Rachel’s eyes widened as if she was skeptical of what Anna was saying.

“Huh? That’s ridiculous! He’s from the Carousel Group! How could he be our head of finance? Why did you take it upon yourself to make him this position? Do you take the board of directors seriously?”

Anna said thoughtfully, “Yes, | took the board seriously. But, you see, no one on the board seems to take me seriously.

Besides, | wasn’t even going to make that decision on my own. Someone just had a temper tantrum at the meeting. At that point, | realized that | didn’t really need to meet with you guys to discuss this.”

Rachel’s face flushed with anger as she stomped her foot, “Damn it! Anna, my mother is right, you’re a jinx! Anyone who’s near you will be doomed! Not only are your own parents

dead, but your half-sister, too! They all died because of you!”

Anna clenched her fists and became pale. When she heard Rachel’s words, she remembered what people had said to her when she was a child. Those voices haunted her, lurking in the depths of her soul like a nightmare.

Anna didn’t believe their comments, but she shuddered whenever she thought about them.

“Anna’s cursed! Her mother passed away shortly after she was born, and her grandfather passed away a few years later!”

“So, why did you allow her to come here? I’m terrified of her.”

“We should probably avoid her.”
