Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 756

But after a moment's thought, Agnes shook her head.

The people and situations one encounters at work are beyond control. If one quit every time they met someone who rubbed them the wrong way, or faced a challenge, wouldn't that be a sign of weakness?

Agnes decided that the best course of action would be to tackle each challenge head-on.

Yolanda was pushing her to the brink, likely with the intent of forcing her to quit.

Well, the joke’s on her. Agnes was not going to give her the satisfaction.

Agnes began to walk around the storage, mapping out a plan in her mind. She decided to start with categorizing the bookshelves and sorting through the old newspapers.

The task seemed daunting, but not impossible.

If Yolanda was intent on giving her trouble, then Agnes was going to show her just how resilient she could be.

Her first job at the television station had been sorting through old newspapers, day and night.

Agnes estimated that at her current pace, she could finish the task within a week.

No one had asked her to work overtime, but she still stayed until nine every night. Her colleagues in the News Department noticed this, and rumors began to swirl.

One morning, Yolanda arrived to find a group of people whispering in the break room.
