Chapter 36
Winner Electronics.
Susan arrived at the office half an hour early.
Unexpectedly, the rest of the company had already arrived.
At the sight of Susan, the interviewer said with a smile, “Ms. Miller, we are moving
to a new place today. Please wait a moment. We’ll set off right away.”
It was clarified on the contract. Without any doubts, Susan just nodded in Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
response.
After a while, no one was absent.
The company booked a few carts and prepared to go to a new location.
Susan got into the car with her colleagues.
In the car, she casually picked a seat and sat down.
Not long after, a cute girl with a round face walked over and smiled at Susan, “Is anyone here?”
“No one,” Answered Susan quickly.
Thereupon, the girl sat down.
She glanced at Susan curiously, “You’re the newcomer to our department, right? Susan Miller?”
“Yes.” Susan smiled amiably.
“Wow.” The girl said happily, “After your participation, I’m not the only girl in our department anymore. It is a boy’s department. I can’t find a girl who can talk about makeup! Now, you come. I finally have a friend.”
“Hey, Susan Miller. No, no, I’ll call you Susan. It seems more intimate.” The girl took Susan’s hand directly.
Susan was a little uncomfortable with her sudden enthusiasm, but after all, as a colleague, she responded her with a gentle smile,
“My name is Roy Kelin.” The woman introduced herself, “Just call me Roy.”
“Roy.” Replied Susan quickly.
Roy suddenly reached out to touch Susan’s face.
Susan froze for a moment and became even more uncomfortable.
She didn’t reject passionate people, but Roy was too ebullient.
“Susan, your skin is so good.” Roy smiled with a squint, “You must spend a lot of time on skin care, right?”
“Not really.” Susan said.
“Oh, don’t be shy. I heard that those girls like you who take an hour or two to take care of your skin every day. Unlike me, I wash my face simply before going out every day.”
It seemed that Roy spoke playfully, but Susan always felt that there was something
harsh.
“Not for an hour or two.” Susan pursed her lips and answered casually.
“Okay. I understand.” Joy blinked at Susan as if she knew everything.
Susan was a little disgruntled with a scowl.
Roy, however, didn’t seem to catch Susan’s feeling. Instead, she leaned closer and sniffed at Susan.
Her sudden behavior made Susan stiff.
Not perceiving that seemingly, Roy still said with a smile, “Susan, you have a scent. Did you wear perfume? I hear that perfume is expensive. Yours should be sent by a man, right?”
Roy winked at Susan meanwhile.
At this time, Susan could be certain.
She didn’t like this new colleague at all.
She coldly responded, “No perfume. It’s just the smell of laundry detergent.”
“Gee, how can it be so–fragrant? Don’t lie to me.” Roy smiled and spoke, “Besides, it’s normal for someone to give you perfume because you’re so good–looking. Unlike me, I only care about work, and I’m still single now. But I don’t regret it. You are pretty, so naturally you can survive with your appearance. But I am still more willing to rely on my own ability to make a living.”
What a load of balderdash!
Susan stood up and calmly said with a cold face, “Excuse me, please. I’ll sit in the back.”
Roy was stunned for a moment, then she looked at Susan with an aggrieved face, “Susan, what’s wrong? Are you angry? I didn’t say anything.”
Susan ignored her and forcibly crossed her over to find an empty seat.
Then, she found a pair of earphones, directly stuffing her ears. It seemed that nobody was welcome.
Roy didn’t expect that Susan, a newcomer, would do that.
She felt a little embarrassed.
After a long time, she snorted coldly. A trace of disdain flashed across her eyes.
A beautiful woman like Susan must get the position through her beauty.
But she had the real ability, and she entered the company through an interview.
They were different Why did she care about a woman like Susan?
It was a shame of it!
This kind of explanation comforted her.
One hour later.
The car arrived at the destination.
Susan took off her earphones and looked out the window.
Then, she was stunned.
Just ahead stood a building that had become a landmark in the city.
This was an architectural garden with more than a dozen buildings, all of which belonged to Storm Group. On the outermost stone marker, the name Storm Group was gilded, shining in the sun.
Storm Group!
Why did they come here?
Susan’s face turned pale.
“Susan, what’s wrong? You look bad,” Roy’s caring voice suddenly rang out at that
moment.
Susan compressed her lips and looked at her blankly.
However, Roy laughed even more happily, “You’re a newcomer. You haven’t received any news yet, have you? Our company was acquired by Storm Group yesterday. As its subsidiary, we are going to move here naturally.”
Acquired by Storm Group?
Susan’s heart thumped!
What a coincidence!
Could it be Ben….
No, that was impossible.
Although Winner Electronics was not a big company, it was not an easy thing to acquire it.
Storm Group must have settled down the acquisition plan.
So, was it just a coincidence?
However, Susan’s heart was inexplicably flustered.
She even had an urge to flee.
However, the next moment, Roy had already pulled her up enthusiastically, “Let’s go. Let me tell you. As an employee in the subsidiary, we’re given a great opportunity.”
“Mr. Landor says that employees in the Programming Department have the
chance to interview in of Storm Group. If we pass it, we can directly enter the headquarters.” Roy glanced at Susan and implied, “The programing department of Storm Group can be regarded as a gathering place of talents in this field. This place requires nothing but capacity.”
Susan’s eyes were slightly cold.
What did she mean?
Implying that she had only a beautiful face but no ability?
It seemed that her previous counterattacks were inadequate.
Susan looked at Roy calmly and spoke directly, “First of all, thank your compliments on my appearance. Secondly, I’m not so beautiful as you say. I just keep myself clean. For example, it seems that your hair hasn’t been washed for a month, right? How can you bear your greasy taste and unaesthetic hair?”
Roy’s smile froze
Susan surveyed at her with disgust, “As for your face, even not delicate, should you wipe the crumbs at the corner of your mouth? Or are you going to keep it as a dessert? And when your face is rough and peeled, should you take care of it? Are you keeping it until the winter or waiting it to molt?”
Susan said without any politeness, coupled with her disgusted eyes, as if Roy was a reptile on the ground.
Roy quivered with anger.
Coincidentally, there was a burst of laughter.
