Darcie did not believe Jaylene at first. “Stella said you met her in the morning and told her that you would drive to the airport alone. Why didn’t she mention that you were sick?”

Jaylene cursed Stella for being nosy and continued with her lie, “Why would Stella be so kind as to tell you about me? She would be more than happy if I didn’t go pick Dad up, so he’d be upset with me.” Then, she coughed again before continuing, “Mom, I’m really at the hospital now. Check my location if you don’t believe me. I didn’t mean to ignore your calls. I’m just feeling too unwell. I put my phone on silent and forgot about it.”

Darcie looked at the location Jaylene had sent her and began believing her words. She then briefly asked about her condition. Jaylene said, “I’m still waiting for the doctor to see me.”

Darcie said in a deep voice, “Come over here immediately once you’re done. I’ll give you a maximum of forty minutes. I’m going to meet Mrs. Esper today because you messed up, so you’d better be here!

“I’d expect you to show up if you can still walk! It’s even better if you come here sick so Mrs. Esper can see our sincerity. We can only keep working with her if we can get her to forgive us. Clients like her are very crucial for the success of your career in the future.”

Jaylene frowned, feeling somewhat annoyed. However, she dared not disobey Darcie’s orders. So, she grunted in response, “I got it.”

Darcie’s tone softened a little. “Don’t blame me for being so harsh on you, and don’t feel embarrassed for apologizing. When you have nothing, you’ll understand that money is more important than pride and everything else.
