Serena hadn't come to their desks for anything serious; a few of them only wanted some advice for their sketches.
Since Cindy didn't have any questions, she just buried her head in her work.
On the other hand, Serena tapped the edge of Cindy's desk lightly after making one round, causing Cindy to pause whatever she was doing for a second before glancing at Serena's fingers out of the corner of her eyes. Then, she dipped her head.
At that, Serena made another round before walking away, whereas Cindy waited for a short while before heading to Serena's office where the latter was waiting.
When Cindy finally stood in front of her, she picked up Cindy's sketch and studied it before commenting, "This sketch is a great leap from your past work. We'll see what the others come up with before making the selection."
With that, Serena pulled out another order from the side and handed it to Cindy. "I have another order for you, and you're the only one who'll be working on it. You won't have any other designs as a reference, so you'll have to be more hands-on."
"Is this a sole project for me?" Cindy's eyes widened with incredulity.
Serena smirked in response, and it wasn't until she nudged the order sheet in front of Cindy that the latter finally came around and hurriedly accepted it.
Cindy couldn't believe it was real. She thanked Serena while holding the order securely in her hands, saying, "Thank you, Miss Warhol! Thank you!"
Serena said nothing else but only smiled at Cindy, who only came to herself and realized what was up after exiting Serena's office.
At that, she hurriedly folded the order and kept it in her pocket. Usually, Serena wasn't so secretive when she handed Cindy a design task. But this time, it was an obvious underhand move. Hence, Cindy wondered if this was Serena giving her preferential treatment.
Be it that she entered the company through the back door or that she made it clear to Serena that she wouldn't change affiliations, Serena was certainly giving her special treatment.
