    Chapter 1997 Helpful File


    Cindy flipped through it and realized that it was the past work of some designers, and they were


    acimed as well. There were also articles written by the designers, and the most important aspects


    were extracted. Cindy was really excited to see that. "Thanks! My mentor isn''t around, and I was trying


    to find a direction. I can''t believe I didn''t think about this. I should have referred to the designers'' past


    work."

    Mary told her gently, "Tell me if you need anything. Mr. Kaufmann has asked me to help you out."


    Cindy wondered if Mr. Kaufmann actually said that, but she thanked Mary anyway.


    Mary scanned everyone before she left, and she wiped her smile off, recing it with a stern look. Her


    change in attitude was too obvious, and everyone could see that she was buttering Cindy up.


    After Mary was gone, Cindy picked one of the past works and analyzed them. She chose the award-


    winning designs of thepany''s designers first. Theption was meticulously done, and it even


    had the first draft of every design collected. There was also a breakdown of the details. People would


    pay top dor to get their hands on this file, and Cindy knew she was extremely lucky to be able to get


    her hands on this.


    A whileter, the gossipdy came over again, presumably because she wanted to see the file too, but


    she was feeling embarrassed, so she only huddled around Cindy. "Wow, you''re really great friends with


    Mr. Kaufmann, huh? He even gave you this? I bet Serena''s going to treat you even better now."


    Cindy said nothing. She couldn''t deny that, but she didn''t want to admit it either.


    Thedy didn''t expect her to answer, so she continued, "I envy you. Your backer''s powerful. I bet


    nobody''s backer is more powerful than yours." She then said, "That Mary came in through her


    connection too. She''s always arrogant to us, but she keeps buttering you up."


    Cindy already guessed that Mary came in through her connection as well, since no normal employee


    would be that arrogant otherwise. Only someone with a backer would. Cindy grunted. "I see."


    Thedy nodded, then she said, "We were actually really surprised at first, since Serena''s a woman


    with principles. She would never ept an apprentice who came in through connections. All of us


    came in because we have the skills to back us up. That''s why we were surprised that you got in."


    Cindy stopped her work and looked at thedy. I see. No wonder they dislike me. So I''m the only one in


    the department whonded the job because of my connection? Well, that''s a bit disheartening. So I''m


    the most inexperienced one here.


    She turned her attention back to the file again. "I see." She spent the whole morning reading through


    the file Mr. Kaufmannpiled for her, and it was way better than her exploring by herself. At the very


    least, she could see what shecked in the details department. Indeed, she had a few habits like


    overwhelming dresses with a lot of elements, and the lines seemed to be rigid when she designed


    shirts.


    Yeah, I''m inexperienced. I should study more. That''s how I can learn. I have to expand my vista to


    enrich my designs. Cindy hadn''t finished going through the file even though it was already time for


    lunch. Her colleagues were leaving, but they would linger around her desk and nce at the file.
