The last words seemed to slap Sheila right in the face.
Sheila felt a burning sting on her cheek, utterly embarrassed.
“Alright, I still need to take Mrs. McMillian for a tour in other departments, you guys figure out the rest."
Romeo's words left the design department feeling a pang of loss. They hadn't had enough chat with
Arabella.
"Mrs. McMillian, you should come visit the design department when you have time."
“The entire design department would love to invite you for an afternoon tea!"
“Exactly, next time you come, just say what you'd like to eat or drink."
Arabella's gaze softened, "Thank you."
“We should be the ones thanking you. You've inspired us and made us realize that we still have a long
way to go in design."
"Next time, I'll definitely present more impressive works for you to see, Arabella."
"Mrs. McMillian, see you next time."
“You must come."
Arabella nodded with a smile, surveying the crowd. Sheila was at the very back, her face contorted with
embarrassment.
“Sheila, could you step out for a moment?’ Arabella suddenly called out.
Everyone in the design department looked at Sheila. She had just offended Arabella.
Now that Mr. McMillian was back from his call, Arabella was going to settle the score with her.
Having won several international design awards in recent years, she dared to be so reckless in front of
Arabella.
She was still a young girl, a bit green.
Sheila was initially taken aback when Arabella called her out, but she quickly composed herself. The
clicking sound of her high heels on the floor wasn't as confident as before.
“Mrs. McMillian,’ Sheila stepped into the hallway outside the department, her voice considerably
quieter.
“Irene chose to resign."
Arabella’s words left Sheila frozen on the spot, her expression a mix of surprise and embarrassment.
“Deputy Manager Lou was taken away by the police because he had been harassing female interns for
the past two months, and they reported him."
Sheila's face turned even more sour. She hadn't expected that Arabella had heard every word she'd
said to others just now.
“The person who turned Mr. McMillian's office upside down was Maria, not me; Arabella continued,
"She was fired because she made a mistake, thought she was clever, and spoke ill of others. Mr.
McMillian didn't take into account the relationship between the McMillian and Paisley families and fired
her. This goes to show that nepotism doesn't work in this corporation. What Mr. McMillian values more
is an employee's personal abilities and character."
Sheila was dumbstruck, unable to utter a word.
How had Arabella heard what she'd said to others from such a distance? And so clearly!
“Mrs. McMillian." Sheila didn't know how to defend herself. She glanced at Romeo, who seemed
somewhat indifferent.
“Mr. McMillian- Sheila really didn't know how to explain.
“Also, in last year's Astronisia Design Competition, it was my vote that made you the third place."
At the time, Sheila and another contestant, Caroline, had a tie in votes. It was Arabella's crucial vote
that made Sheila the third and Caroline the fourth.
