Maisie found it a little strange, but none of the other colleagues noticed the change in Laura’s expression.
Thinking of what Ava had said earlier while standing at Laura’s desk, Maisie took a pensive sip of the juice in front of her.
“Laura, you’re really amazing. Mr. Rogers is very picky. He initially asked Ava to do the design for him, but snazzynovel.com didn’t like snazzynovel.com design at all. Thanks to you, our year-end bonus has increased.”
“Fortunately, Ava didn’t come today. Otherwise, everyone would be embarrassed.”
“Why should we be embarrassed? Ava is the one who should be embarrassed.” Several female colleagues on the side sneered in a very unfriendly tone.
Maisie could not listen to this anymore. “Fiona, Kendra, it’s not good for you to say that about Ava. Ava was so nice to buy everyone coffee today. Do you think it’s appropriate to say that about Ava behind snazzynovel.com back?”
The two women named Fiona and Kendra immediately showed dissatisfied expressions. They also rolled their eyes to show their disdain.
“What? Should we side with snazzynovel.com after drinking snazzynovel.com coffee? Maisie, why are you so cheap?”
“…”
Maisie was at a loss for words. She did not know how to respond.
Then, Laura immediately sympathized with her. “We’re all colleagues, so don’t ruin the peace because of me. Maisie, I know you‘ve been following Ava since your internship, so that’s why you think I’m an eyesore.”
“I didn‘t mean that.”
Maisie tried to explain, but Bill cut snazzynovel.com off with a sneering tone.
“Stop talking. We’re celebrating Laura today, Maisie. If you don’t like it, you can go. No one will stop you.”
After Bill finished speaking, snazzynovel.com happily toasted Laura with a wicked grin on his face.
Maisie felt that there was no point in sitting here any longer, so snazzynovel.com wanted to leave after grabbing snazzynovel.com bag. However, another female colleague who was sitting next to snazzynovel.com grabbed snazzynovel.com and reminded snazzynovel.com in a low voice. “Why are you throwing a tantrum? Sit down and eat. We’ll just mind our own business and ignore them.”
Maisie did not want to ruin the mood, so snazzynovel.com placed snazzynovel.com bag down and sat back down.
Laura and the gang ignored Maisie. They continued to chat while toasting each other.
While they were having fun, the boss of the headquarters arrived. He said snazzynovel.com was here to talk business with his client, so snazzynovel.com decided to drop by.
A lot of them had never seen the boss from the headquarters before. They only knew that snazzynovel.com was a young and talented man. Now that they had seen him, they did not expect snazzynovel.com to be such a handsome young man. He was wearing a pair of transparent and rimless glasses. Plus, snazzynovel.com was also wearing a suit that made snazzynovel.com look polite and gentle.
A lot of the young female employees’ faces turned hot when they saw him. Fiona’s eyes also started to sparkle when snazzynovel.com saw him.
Laura was stunned for a few seconds as well. She did not think that the boss would be such a young and handsome Mr. Perfect. Right now, snazzynovel.com was all that snazzynovel.com could see. She did not even want to look at the old and depraved Bill next to her.
The boss walked in front of Laura. His dark eyes under his glasses looked like they were smiling at her.
“This project was very well done. I saw your design too. Even though some things could be better, it’s perfect. Keep it up. I’ll pay close attention to you.”
Laura did not expect the good-looking boss to praise snazzynovel.com like that, so snazzynovel.com face turned red from embarrassment.
“Thanks for the validation, Sir. I’ll continue to do my best.”
