Chapter 50
Eliza had no choice but to leave dejectedly. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
She didn’t have the courage to speak to Loraine. To avoid embarrassment, she passed the message through one of the workers.
The fact that Loraine went into the meeting room after Eliza left dejectedly raised the eyebrows of the employees.
Not long after, they found out that Loraine had closed the huge deal instead of Eliza.
ALL the employees, including those that didn’t like Loraine, flocked around her to congratulate her.
Eliza was left in the shadows. It was as if she wasn’t the same woman who was worshipped a while back.
From a secluded corner, Eliza watched as everyone flattered Loraine endlessly. A sharp pain tugged at her heartstrings. Her eyes were bloodshot at this time.
Why did a newbie become a worthy contender overnight?
She couldn’t accept this!
Eliza vowed to do everything within her power to teach Loraine a lesson once she became the director.
A few days Later, all the employees in the design department received the promotion email from the HR department.
Some of them rushed to Eliza’s cubicle and fawned at her before checking the email.
“Eliza, your time is now. Everyone will start addressing you as the director from today. Don’t forget us after you get promoted!”
A radiant smile sat on Eliza’s face at this moment. She had been depressed after her design plan was written off. But her sadness dissipated now that there was good news.
She flipped her hair back and said proudly, “Of course, I will remember my loyal colleagues. I’ll be the best director you guys have ever had.
Under my leadership, this department will flourish. I’m not like someone in this office who won just by pure luck. She’s too much of a maverick to hold such a high office. She shouldn’t blame others when she lands into trouble in the future. Humph!”
It was obvious that Eliza was mocking Loraine.
The others agreed with her shamelessly.
“Yes, you are the most capable in this department. Only someone who’s a down-to-earth team player deserves to be picked by the management. And that person is you!”
“Eliza, you have a lot of experience. You can manage the department well. On the other hand, the newbie is just someone who thinks too highly of herself because she won a deal. She doesn’t even take us seriously.”
“Exactly!”
While most of the designers were around Eliza, Jolie was still in her cubicle. She was unhappy to hear them slandering Loraine.
“How shameless! She hasn’t become director yet, but she’s already putting up airs.”
