    Chapter 92 Did You Make A Mistake


    After entering the office, Christina received a message from Gina saying that she had already told


    Team B about her and that she could directly go to their office.


    Team B’s office was not inferior to Team A’s in terms of grandeur.


    For the past few years, Yosef had been managing Team B, so the results they achieved were on par


    with Team A’s. However, since Yosef had been transferred overseas, Team B seemed to be in bad


    shape.


    It was working hours, but the employees in the office did not seem to have any intention to work.


    Instead, they had gathered together and were chatting among themselves.


    Christina had just entered the office when someone gave her a stack of documents. “You must be the


    office’s new assistant, right? Hurry and separate these documents. We’ll need it for the meetingter.”


    Christina’s expression turned grim as she held onto the heavy stack of documents. Are they treating


    me as the office’s assistant?


    “I’m not-”


    op dawdling and quickly finish what I’ve asked you to. Once you’ve organized the documents, the


    pantry and make twelve cups of coffee.”


    Christina tried to exin, but the woman could not be bothered. She pushed Christina into the


    conference room and left.


    go to


    Staring at the documents in her hands, Christina breathed a heavy sigh and did as she was asked. She


    separated the documents and arranged them neatly on the table before exiting the conference room.


    The group of employees had not dispersed. Their gazes were locked onto the ss door of the office


    entrance as they continued gossiping.


    “I heard the higher-ups are sending an employee from Team A to be our group leader.”


    “Is there no one else in Radiant Corporation they can send? How could they simply arrange a designer


    to be our group leader?”


    “I heard she got the position through connections. She’s somehow rted to the big boss,” someone


    whispered.


    The deputy leader of the team, Caroline Zucker, was the most unsatisfied with that decision. She had


    thought she would be promoted to group leader after Yosef left.


    Now that the higher-ups had transferred someone with zero experience to take control of the team, she


    could not help but feel annoyed.


    Caroline’s gaze


    fell onto Christina, and an indescribable feeling shed across her eyes. The woman before Caroline


    oddly made her feel pressured. “Hey, newbie! What are you doing standing around? Have you made


    the coffee?”


    Christina shed a faint smile. She exuded a gentle yet intimidating aura as she said, “The meeting is


    about to start. I don’t think there’s enough time for me to make you coffee.”


    A newly arrived assistant wants to sit in on the meeting?


    Just then, the HR department sent the news of Christina’s official appointment to Team B’s group chat.


    Everyone lowered their heads to look at their phones and felt their hearts sink when they read the


    announcement.


    They turned to look at the woman before them and gaped in disbelief as theypared her to the


    professional photo on their phones. She had the same high ponytail and slender figure, but she looked


    slightly different from the image because she was bare-faced.


    “You’re the newly appointed group leader for Team B” Caroline asked, shocked.

    Christina was silent as she nodded calmly.


    The other employees looked as though they had taken a p to their faces, feeling their checks


    heating. up and reddening in embarrassment. They were displeased with the higher-ups’ decision, but


    they did not dare to make any otherments. After all, not only had they voiced their opinions out


    loud, but they had also said them in front of the person in question.


    A new broom sweeps clean. They feared Christina would make an example to the other employees by


    punishing them.


    Caroline was red with anger as she probed further, “Why didn’t you say that you were the new group


    leader earlier? Why did you pretend to be our assistant?”


    “I did try to tell you, but none of you bothered to listen to me.” The group of employees had been busy


    gossiping. They did not even bother to pay her any attention.


    Christina did not pursue the matter any longer. “All right, all group leader-level employees, pleasee


    in for the meeting.”


    With that, she turned around and entered the conference room. A few of the employees exchanged


    nces before following her inside.


    The cold air from the air conditioning caused the unharmonious atmosphere to turn even more gloomy.


    Before Christina could speak, Caroline beat her to it and said, “Ms. Steele, not to offend you, but you


    just joined the design department, so you may not be clear with how things work around here. Why


    don’t you go to your office to review the documents before we start the meeting?”


    What right does a twenty-something-year-old woman have to take over the position of a group leader?


    Does she even have the capability to bear such heavy responsibility?


    Christina was calm as she stared at Caroline. The others could not figure her out with how calm she


    was. “There’s no need for that. I’ve already looked through everythingst night. There’s a fashion


    show this month, two autumn tasks we need to finalize for the second half of the year, as well as an


    internalpetition for the designers of Radiant Corporation.”


    Caroline felt humiliated. She had wanted to assert dominance against Christina but did not expect the


    Hatter toe prepared.


    A fashion show would be held in the middle of the month by a brand under Radiant Corporation. Every


    year, they would invite VIP customers to attend the show and allow them to pre-order the clothes


    before they were sold in stores.


    Many designs were only sold to people who attended the show. Hence, many rich women liked


    participating in that event because of the special treatment they would receive.


    After the morning meeting, Christina brought two assistants to Hadley Corporation’s shopping mall to


    check the decorations at the venue.


    Yosef had been in charge of the designs for the show. It was also thest work he had left behind


    before transferring overseas. Yosef had also designed the clothes for the show. As for theyout of the


    venue, Yosef had left behind a draft, so Christina needed only to follow it.


    Christina and the two assistants busied themselves until the afternoon. The two assistants were


    exhausted. When they noticed it was almost time for lunch, they said, “Ms. Steele, most of the


    arrangements are in order. The only thing left is the rehearsal.”


    “No matter how hard you work, no one willpliment you. After all, this is all Mr. Gunther’s blood,


    sweat, and tears.”


    Doesn’t she understand that she will never be able to rece Mr. Gunther no matter how hard she


    tries?


    Christina was unfazed by their words. It was precisely because that fashion show was the task left


    behind by Yosef that she did not dare to mess it up. If the show were ruined, she would feel


    embarrassed to face Yosef.

    When it was time for lunch, the two assistants left Christina behind and went on their way.


    When she was done, lunch break was almost over. The cafeteria in thepany had long since.


    finished serving staff meals.


    Christina returned to the office and was about to order food delivery when several bodyguards dressed


    in fancy suits arrived and barged into the group leader’s room.


    “Those people seem to be targeting Ms. Steele.”


    “Are they here to collect debt?”


    The bodyguards entered the office and ced the takeout boxes on the table. There were various


    kinds. of dishes, fruit, and desserts. On the boxes was a printed logo of the most famous restaurant in


    the city.


    Christina was taken aback by all the food. She stared at the order page disyed on her phone before


    shifting her gaze to the delicious food on the table. She could not keep her calm as she said. “I didn’t


    order any food delivery. Did you make a mistake?”


    The bodyguard at the front replied earnestly, “You did not make a mistake. Mr. Hadley sent us here to


    deliver the food. Please enjoy your meal, Mrs. Hadley


    Christina was shocked. Isn’t Nathaniel spending too much? How could he send bodyguards that he


    pays a high sry to send me food?


    Right then, Nathaniel video-called her, and she quickly answered it.


    The man’s handsome face appeared on the screen. His gaze was deep and mesmerizing.


    “Is the food to your liking? If they’re not, I’ll have them buy new ones for you.” Nathaniel’s maic


    voice rang out and echoed throughout the room.


    Christina’s face reddened with embarrassment as she guiltily lowered the volume of her phone. “They


    are. I’ll eat now, so I’m going to hang up.”


    She reached out to press the “End Call” button, but Nathaniel stopped her. “Don’t. Just eat your food.


    I’ll just look at you. It doesn’t matter.”


    “Do as you like.” Christina was starving after busying herself the entire morning, so she started to eat


    the food.
