Yvonne smirked as Hannah slinked away—she enjoyed having authority. She sat back down and drank her coffee. After some time, she touched up her makeup and filed her nails. She did anything but her work.
No one bothered to ask her for help. The employees flocked in the break room for an impromptu discussion.
“The chairman’s lover hasn’t even entered the company and there’s already a spy among us. This is some future planning.”
“Look at her arrogance. Icarus fell because he flew too close to the sun. When her sister falls out of favor, we’ll see how she begs then.”
“She’s definitely exaggerating. If her sister was taking up an important role, why would she be just a customer service executive? The personnel department is just buying time.”
“I wonder how the elder sister is. The younger one is already horrible. How did the chairman even fall for someone like that?”
The public relations department break room was unusually noisy. There were comments of all sorts of nature.
Everyone was sure Yvonne Xander would be kicked out of the office within days.
The rumor that the sister of the chairman’s lover got a job through the back door spread like wildfire in Marriott International.
Hannah entered the assistant manager’s office and began her complaint, “Manager Jayden, didn’t you say the new hire would be helping me? You gave me a whole bunch of documents yesterday to photocopy and sort through. Today, I have to come up with a communication draft. The new hire is not helping me! All she does is give me an attitude.”
Assistant Manager Jayden raised an eyebrow and said, “You’re a public relations specialist and you can’t manage a new hire?”
Hannah took a breath after her rant before saying, “She’s using the chairman’s name to pressure me.”
In the end, Assistant Manager Jayden did not have a choice but to call Yvonne Xander in if wanted to placate Hannah. Even the chairman’s sister-in-law needed to do some work to stay at Marriott International.
