When Ella went to work on Monday, she got the news that their studio had been bought by the Hill Group.
They all are required to report to work today.
There were four people in the studio. Except their boss, they were signed to the Hill Group by contract.
Another three female fashion designers were extreme excited except Ella.
"Oh my God! I finally did a right thing since I was born that I work for our studio. Now our studio is bought by the Hill Group. I feel like I’m going to marry a rich handsome tall man and reach the top of my life!" Bella Cooper, one of the fashion designers fancied her life while she was packing up.
Ella packed up quietly without saying something. In her opinion, she did not think it was as good as they imagined.
As the saying goes, "Better be the head of an ass than the tail of a horse." When she went to work for the Hill Group, she prayed that she would not become the one who was responsible for printing documents.
At noon, after their four had finished boxed lunch in the office, the former boss, Hunter James, came into the company, looking as if he had made a lot of money and he was pleased with himself.
"Ladies, this time the Hill Group can buy our studio, it is a great thing for all of us! We are predestined to work together. Next month I will emigrate to Australia. Let's go to eat a great meal tonight. It's my treat. I invite you to the most luxurious restaurant, the Eastern Palace. We meet at eight. Everyone is welcomed and I hope all you will come!" Hunter said joyfully.
Everyone promised to show up since the boss was so generous and warm to welcome them for dinner.
Hunter drove them to the Hill Group in person.
Looking at the towering building, Sofia Carson, who got along well with Ella, roared, "This is our new battlefield from now on!"
When they four walked into the building with a cardboard box in each of their arms, Hunter pulled Ella and said to her secretly, "Ella, you signed a five-year contract with me when you were hired. Now there are still three years to expire. Do not resign during these three years! Otherwise, you cannot afford break-up fees…."
Ella looked at Hunter driving away. She got a little confused that why Hunter only reminded her.
She shook her head and let the problem alone. Sofia in front of her called her to hurry up, "Ella, come on. Everyone is waiting for you!"
Ella trotted in heels to follow up the team.
They four got into the elevator for employees. There were two hours to be off duty and they need to report for duty before getting off work.
When they arrived at the personnel department, they finished the formality of entry smoothly and quickly.
They four were all arranged into the design department of the Hill Group.
They had been the head designers in their former workplace before, but now they were assigned to be the designers' assistants.
There were ten designers in the design department, three of whom were chief designers.
Bella Cooper, Sofia Carson, and Anne Smith all became the assistant of the three chief designers. Only Ella was arranged into the logistics team, which meant she needed to do chores.
The logistics team help the designers make coffee, order takeout, take delivery, make PPT, collect data and so on.
Ella was putting the things on her desk in an awful bad mood. She knew that it was no use for her of joining the largest investment company in Asia.
Now she was on the margins, and instead of getting more money, she was getting 800 dollars less than she used to get.
She could not wait to be off.
