Chapter 1659
A stranger''s face came into sight when I entered the building and looked at the front desk.
The receptionist smiled at me, rose to her feet, and bowed. She was polite, but I could still see the contempt in the corners of her eyes.
I looked at her. She was fashionably dressed. I could see that she was no longer an intern.
Interns would usually dress in in and simple clothes when they had just started working in thepany. Moreover, they would not have such contemptuous looks in their eyes.
I reckoned that the woman must have worked in thepany for some time, but
she was a senior I seldom saw.
The moment I turned around the corner, I heard noisesing out from the office, followed by someone passionately calling me.
"Boss, what brings you here today?"
It was the human resource manager, Lisa.
"I came to see if everyone''s doing well. Is Cindy here? I need to talk to her."
I went straight to the point.
Lisa''s expression changed when she heard Cindy''s name.
"Oh, Ms. Reed. She''s probably at her work station. She''s been busy with work for the past few days." Lisa turned around and led me to the office.
The noises in the office had quieted down now. 1 looked at my ex-colleagues and
some new workers who had just joined. I wore a smile on my face, but it did not mean anything.
I was no longer involved in the management of thepany. There was no need for me to give a speech or say anything to them in public. As for the other affairs, I would just leave them to them to handle them.
They were confused when they saw meing back to thepany all of a sudden while carrying a big belly.
However, it was just like what I told Theo in the car. Most of them were just curious.or jealous of me. None of them truly wanted to harm me They only dared to watch me from far behind, and there was hardly anyone who dared toe forward and challenge me. Content belongs

Lisa kept on heading straight. There was still no sign of Cindy. When I was wondering where she was, someone mmed the table angrily.
"Cindy Reed, what the hell are you doing? Don''t take your anger out on someone else just because you''re no longer popr!
Jessie should be the one shooting for themercial. What makes you think that you can take it away from her?"
I saw Cindy, who was sitting behind a pile of items. She shot a nce at the person who was yelling at her indifferently and asked, "Did she sign the contract?"
The person was bbergasted and rendered speechless.
I noticed that the person yelling at her was so angry that she had nowhere to vent her emotions. I knew she had not signed the contract yet.
Thepany had specified that no unhealthypetition was allowed in the samepany.
If one of the celebrities had already
signed the contract with the brand, the other celebrities who were in the samepany were not allowed to steal the job unless it was a special case.
Otherpanies had the same rules too.
Turning against each other in the samepany... Would that not be a joke to outsiders?Original content from N?velDrama.Org.
Although everyone knew that
celebrities fought among
themselves in the entertainment industry, it would be better not to cross each other''s lines at least on the surface.
However, if the contract had not been signed, then it would be a different story.
"How can you say that I snatched it away from you when you haven''t signed the contract? Jessie couldn''t get the job. Does that have anything to do with us?"
"You!" The person lifted her hand as she was about toy a hand on her. Lisa was one step ahead of them and stopped her.
"Hey, we''re all colleagues. Why are you giving such a big reaction to her words?" said Lisa.
The two of them turned around and looked at her when Lisa stepped forward. That was when they noticed me.
The agent who was yelling at Cindy earlier immediately reined in her temper and said, "Wanda, why are you here?"
Cindy shot a nce at me. She stood up to show respect, but she did not greet me.
