Looking at Damian, Penelope eased up a bit. And Damian breathed a long sigh of relief at the thought that she would soon leave.
In this way, both of them were satisfied.
...
In a blink of an eye, Meredith had been working for Xavier Group for almost a month. She was fully qualified for this position in a short time.
She was already in full control of the department.
Today, she came to work as usual, but as soon as she entered the gate of Xavier Group, she sensed something was wrong.
Design Department was a very important area for Xavier Group's headquarters. When Meredith first took office, everyone in the company knew about her because of Chen's appearance on the first day.
The new executive director of design B Department and Damian, who was close to the president, were very respectful to her.
Whenever a colleague saw her, they would nodded at her.
But today...
She saw the receptionists at the front desk were looking at her from time to time, and some colleagues huddled together in twos and threes. She had no idea what they were whispering.
But from their occasional glance, Meredith also realized that these people were talking about her.
She couldn't help but frown, wondering what happened.
For some reason, it reminded her of the day when the news that she was copying other's design was exposed at Xavier Group's branch in J City. When she went to work, the same situation happened to her, and she felt a sense of unease.
She would know what was going on later anyway.
She took a deep breath and took a quick step up the elevator, expressionless.
As soon as she left, the staff in the hall started to talk loudly.
"Look at her. I'm afraid she doesn't know what's going on. There's going to be a good show."
"Do you think that would be true?"
"Sure, the police is here. This is Xavier Group. If there is no conclusive evidence, how can the director of design be arrested?"
"You're right. It must be approved, or else those people won't show up."
"Well, Meredith has only been here for a month. She was once somebody, but now she might be going to jail soon. It's really unpredictable."
Meredith didn't know what these people were talking about. She went straight to design B Department under the attention of everyone.
Emma had been waiting at the door, and when she saw her coming up, she put on a sarcastic expression.
"Oh, our design director is finally here," she said, looking at Meredith with sarcasm, and her eyes were full of malicious and gloating smiles. Meredith was in a daze for a moment.
After all, Emma had been in a low position for a month, afraid of doing something wrong. Seeing her sudden change, Meredith felt uncomfortable, as if this was Emma's true color.
