Fifteen minutes later, everyone was seated in the conference room, including Mollie, their usually stern supervisor, who was now beaming with a bright smile.
Whispers spread among the employees.
"Did Meanie Mollie win the lottery?"
"Maybe she found a new love interest!"
"Hahaha..."
Mollie cleared her throat, her eyes flashing with a cold glint as she glanced at those whispering.
The room immediately fell silent.
With another smile, Mollie announced, "I have good news! Our company's boss, Mr. Thompson, highly values the film studio project! He will be visiting our department soon. It's an opportunity for all of you to shine!"
She proceeded to rearrange the seating arrangement.
Those who were skilled at flattery and quick to impress were assigned prominent spots, ensuring they would catch Nicholas' attention as soon as he entered.
The more low-key employees were seated in the middle, giving Nicholas the chance to observe their consistent performance if he walked around.
And as for the interns...
"Lina, Renee!" Mollie called out. "Both of you will move your workstations next to the restroom this afternoon!"
"What?" Lina and Renee were taken aback.
Their colleagues, especially those who had just finished their afternoon tea, quickly voiced their concerns.
"Ms. Chapman, isn't this unfair? They are interns, not restroom attendants!"
"That's right. We shouldn't bully the interns like this, especially considering the reputation of the Thompson Group..."
"Calling it bullying is a bit much," Amelia, Erin, and Kendal interjected, seizing the opportunity. "With Mr. Thompson's visit, it's only fair not to place inexperienced interns in the spotlight, right?"
