"You useless piece of trash! You can't even take care of something this simple, and you still dare say you're not worthless?" Whitney scolded her assistant venomously.
By now, their commotion had drawn quite a bit of attention from onlookers.
Her manager whispered, "Whitney, let's wait until we get to the hotel before dealing with this."
"Fine!" Whitney glanced at the murmuring crowd around them.
A flicker of disgust flashed in her eyes before she grabbed her backpack and strutted outside without another word.
Daniel ignored her and instead helped the assistant gather the fallen luggage.
The weights weren't heavy for him, but for the assistant, they were an absolute burden.
"Hurry up! I've never seen such an unreliable company!" the manager sneered when he saw Daniel still tending to the assistant.
Daniel looked up, his sharp gaze instantly making the manager flinch.
"Wow, you're quite strong, aren't you?" Daniel chuckled sarcastically before carrying the luggage to the car outside.
Despite all her complaints, Whitney was already seated in the car with her arms crossed, maintaining an air of icy arrogance.
Daniel glanced at the assistant before getting into the driver's seat and driving them toward the hotel.
Since Charlene had hired her as the brand ambassador, Daniel chose not to argue for Charlene's sake. However, he wasn't optimistic about this collaboration.
Whitney was too arrogant and difficult to work with. This was shaping up to be a wasted investment.
"Can you drive any slower? What kind of lousy driving is this?"
"See? I told you! Now we're stuck in traffic! Just my luck!"
From the moment she got in the car, Whitney hadn't stopped talking—complaining nonstop and belittling Daniel by comparing him to past business partners.
