By this point Leander was totally losing his shit, face all red.
"That's Isolde's project! Thalia straight-up jacked it from us!"
Lucien whipped out sketches, documents. "Got any rough drafts to prove that?"
He looked at Isolde. "Isolde, didn't you say you pulled two all-nighters on this? Let's show the receipts!"
Isolde looked shaky but tried to keep her poker face. "Only thieves like her keep drafts of everything. I just go straight to the finished product."
The whole room started cracking up. I also laught too.
"So you're saying you knocked out these all in one go? No rough drafts, no nothing?"
"Exactly!"
Isolde got up close and hissed in my ear, "Thalia, I already told you—screw with me on this project and I'll post those nasty pics of you everywhere!"
I pulled out the security footage from that day, complete with crystal-clear audio of her threats.
"Gotta love those high-def security mics—caught every single word!"
Isolde was totally screwed and ran for the hills.
Leander finally figured out Isolde had been bullshitting him this whole time. His face went stone cold as he mumbled something about Lucien being better before taking off.
Lucien and I bounced to go talk business with that investor.
Meanwhile, Leander tracked down Isolde and grabbed her by the neck.
"You said you busted your ass for two days on that project! Isolde, you've been playing me this whole damn time!"
Isolde's face was turning all kinds of colors as she choked out.
"Leander... chill... I can hook you up with Mr. Winston...I have met him a few times."
That got Leander to back off a little.
His fists were still clenched tight. If he could get to that investment big shot Winston before Lucien did, losing today wouldn't mean nothing.
Isolde threw down some serious cash to get some news on Winston from his assistant, then literally hid in the restaurant bathroom waiting to make her move.
Winston always rented out entire places when he went anywhere—the bathroom was basically the only spot to stay.
When they thought the coast was clear, Leander and Isolde knocked and burst into the private dining room.
They walked in on me and Lucien already having dinner with Winston.
Leander looked like he'd been hit by a truck. "Thalia, you guys already had your sit-down yesterday and now you're being greedy enough to snake our deal too?"
"I already gave you those twenty mil in contracts, why are you still all up in Winston's business?"
I had zero clue what his deal was.
Isolde was already busy cozying up to Winston.
"Mr. Winston, you remember me, right? We met back when I was in college. You even turned the tassel at my graduation."
Hearing that, Leander thought he had succeed. Usually only professors you're tight with turne the tassel ceremony—Isolde must be familiar with Mr. Winston.
He dove right in. "Mr. Winston, since you're buddies with Isolde, I'll keep it real with you—that chick sitting next to you, Thalia, is a straight-up scammer!"
"She was at my company for three years, and the second we broke up, she turned around and got with my biggest rival. Walked out with twenty million worth of my deals and helped his company cheat their way to No.1."
"You came here at the first time, and I don't want some fraud like that taking you for a ride. You should learn about—my company's been No.1 for years."
Winston suddenly got all interested.
"Hold up, for real? Those two are actually hooking up?"
"That's Isolde's project! Thalia straight-up jacked it from us!"
Lucien whipped out sketches, documents. "Got any rough drafts to prove that?"
