<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Whatever Miranda wanted, Cecilia would give.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia was in no hurry, she knew she still had an ace up her sleeve that she had yet to y.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">If Miranda and Adrian kept pushing her to the edge, she wouldn’t let them off easily.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“What’s the matter, weren’t you quite pleased with yourself earlier?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Miranda was overjoyed when she received Cecilia’s project.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The two crossed paths in the hallway. She couldn’t help but unt, “Did you know? I just received a few more projects. I heard that your team had worked really hard tond them. I really can’t thank you guys enough.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Miranda added, “However, it’s only fair to reciprocate. I’ve sent a few projects your way, so don’t goining to Nichs that I haven’t treated you well”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia watched her with a cool detachment.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Don’t worry, I won’t tattle. As for the project you offered, you should keep it for your own retirement.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">It was clear that Miranda wouldn’t provide any worthwhile projects. They were bound to be exceptionally challenging and unlikely to yield substantial returns.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Miranda choked, then scoffed scornfully. “Cecilia, what are you so proud of? You’re nothing more than the Rainsworth family’spdog! Do you really think Elena would have let you stay at Orion Corporation if it weren’t for the fact that you’re carrying a Rainsworth child? It’sughable how much importance you ce on your minor role as a department manager.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia held back, refraining from retaliating.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She knew that she was no match for Miranda and Adrian in her current state. She couldn’t confront them directly.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Fortunately, she now had Elena backing her up.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">In the afternoon, Elena gave her a call.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“How’s work been for youtely? If it’s too tiring, I can talk to Nichs and you can take some time off to rest at home.” Elena quickly added, “From now on, I’ll give you ten million each month. You can spend it however you like.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia hadn’t anticipated for Elena to treat her so kindly after saving her once.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">A monthly ie of ten million would amount to over a billion in a year.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She truly didn’t need to strive anymore.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Mom, I’m doing well in my job right now. I want to continue earning my own money. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of myself and the child.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“All right then.” Elena felt a bit down after being rejected by Cecilia, but she still respected her decision.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Have you encountered any challenges at work?” Elena asked once again.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">As soon as Cecilia revealed to Elena about the affairs between Adrian and Miranda within thepany. Elena was certain to not let the matter slide.</font></font>RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">However, Cecilia wanted to rely on herself first.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“No,” she replied.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“That’s good. If anythinges up, just give me a call and let me know. I’ll handle it for you.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elena was well aware that there were plenty of shady characters within Orion Corporation.</font></font>
“All right, sure.” Cecilia nodded.
As she continue to bury herself with work, a call came in from her assistant, Charlotte.
“Boss, what have you been up totely? Have you forgotten about me?”
Cecilia was somewhat dazed. They say that pregnancy could leave one feeling foolish for three years, and it took her half a day to recall that Charlotte had returned to Tud these past few days.
“Lottie, I’m sorry. I’ve been so busytely, I truly forgot about you.”
Charlotte tightened her grip on her phone and pouted “Boss, you’re so unaffectionate. And here I was, having prepared a big gift for you.”
Chuckling, Cecilia said, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, where are you right now? I’lle pick you up immediately.”
Charlotte sent her an address.
Although the two were technically in a superior–subordinate rtionship, they were more like friends.
Cecilia ended work early and went to pick Charlotte up
Now that Charlotte was here, she could now attempt to establish her ownpany in Tud.
