Deliver Herself to The Door
She was already mentally prepared. She took out her phone, logged into MON‘s official website, and found Ms. Lee‘s phone number. This was a last resort. If she dared to make a call, it might make Ms. Lee dissatisfied with her. It was really risky. Then her days in MON would be even more difficult in the future. But after hesitating, she decided to take a whirl. After the call was connected, there was a burst of water and a low voice from the woman. “Hello?”
“Ms. Lee, I am a new intern in the company. My name is...” “Brook Villa, room 305, I will wait for you for fifteen minutes.” The woman hung up after she finished speaking. After a brief stun, Lyra immediately ran out of the building and took a taxi. Several employees at the front desk gathered together. “She is really crazy. Why does she work so hard when she is assigned to Ms. Lee?”
“However, Ms. Lee didn‘t come to the company today. She must have gone to meet with her several sugar daddies. I think Lyra is quite beautiful. I guess she can‘t leave intact tonight.” “It‘s faster to get to the top in that way.” “Maybe she‘s looking forward to this opportunity,” the employee who took Lyra upstairs sneered.
Lyra rushed to Brook Villa‘s room 305 in fifteen minutes. There was the sound of laughter and wine glasses colliding inside.
She hesitated. She wouldn’t be late.
But if she went in now, she would undoubtedly ruin the atmosphere inside, no matter what the atmosphere was.
Lyra saw two waiters walking over with plates in their hands. She had an idea.
At this time, the private room was surrounded by a burst of wine fragrance. The woman with short black hair leaned against the chair, holding a cigarette in her hand. Her eyes were half–open.
The rest of the people present were all men, and all of them were rich.
Lyra followed the waiter into the room with the dishes. She approached the red wine bottle on the far right without leaving a trace. Then, she stayed where she was and did not leave.
The banquet continued, and no one noticed her. She took advantage of this opportunity to size up the atmosphere on the table. Two men were constantly currying favor with another man in a gray suit. The woman on the main seat should be Ms. Lee who she was looking for. If Lyra guessed correctly, she should be one of MON‘s chief designers, Susan Lee. There were rumors in the industry that her private life was extremely chaotic. She especially liked to mess around with bosses in the business world and often stayed out all night.
However, the reason why Lyra first paid attention to her was not because of those scandals, but because of Susan‘s works. Every piece was very perfect and could be called a masterpiece.
People who had such an outstanding design would not linger in such a vulgar place. At least, that was what Lyra thought. When she looked up, she happened to see the cigarette between Susan‘s hands finish. Her left hand quickly pulled out two tissues and caught the cigarette butt. Susan seemed to be a little surprised as she raised her eyebrows and glanced at her.
“Lyra?” “Yes, Ms. Lee.” Lyra nodded. “Sit down,” Susan said with a smile.
Lyra was paused for a second and did as she said. The others were still drinking and no one noticed them. Then, Susan raised her glass and broke the lively atmosphere in the bar. “Let me introduce someone to you. She is... Luna, my new assistant.”
“Ms. Lee, you are good at choosing people. Miss Luna will definitely shine in the design industry in the future!” “Yes, let‘s have a drink together.” Lyra felt a chill in her palm and was stuffed with a glass of red wine. This kind of socializing was full of pretense and flattery, but she had no choice.
After a few glasses of wine, Susan said that she was drunk and dizzy, so she asked Lyra to help her out.
