Barr. Just do this.”
At work, Barr was replaced by a female engineer named Whitney Seymour. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Her style was totally different from Barr’s.
Whitney was a woman of action. She was responsible, professional and had a friendly attitude toward teamwork. Loraine felt that she was perfect for the role.
After a pleasant and efficient meeting, the two began to chat.
Whitney said gratefully, “Thank you so much for this opportunity,
Loraine.”
Loraine humbly waved her hand and said, “You don’t have to. Your appointment has nothing to do with me. It’s just because you are good at what you do.”
Whitney didn’t buy it.
“As you may well know, the construction engineering field is saturated with men. It’s actually considered a men’s job. Throughout my years in this field, I have never been treated fairly just because of my gender. You are the first person to give me a chance to show what I can actually do. For that, I’m very thankful.”
Loraine was confused by her words.
“Me?” she asked, pointing at herself.
Whitney’s forehead wrinkled in confusion. “Didn’t you specifically ask that the new engineer should be a woman? I’m the only female senior engineer in the project department, so I got the project.”
Loraine never made that request!
She explained in a hurry, “I think you must have misunderstood something. I applaud you for your work, but I never made such a request.”
It was only then that Whitney realized she had made a mistake. She said awkwardly, “Sorry about that. Perhaps it was Bryant Group that made the request.”
Bryant Group?
Was it Marco?
Why did he do that?
Loraine was confused and annoyed with Marco’s interference at the same time.
“By the way, you have to be extra careful in the upcoming days. Barr is a troublesome man with inexplicable power. I’m afraid that he will return to get back at you.”
Despite finding out that Loraine wasn’t the one who helped her, Whitney still advised her.
