News of Cordelia signing the sale went about the company rapidly, causing some seniors in the sales department to look at her with new eyes.

It was truly surprising that she had sealed a big deal right away when she’d had no sale in the first two months.

The sales director complimented her, saying she had limitless potential and rewarding her with a bonus to encourage her during the sales department’s regular meeting.

Cordelia remained sober as she quietly observed everyone’s gazes. Some people congratulated her genuinely, while some of the applause was hypocritical. There were also people like Karine, who openly isolated her out of jealousy.

In spite of this, Cordelia did not care. She was only focused on her account balance.

“Hah, what a faker!” She heard someone talking in the kitchen when she passed by. “Look how calm she was when the director complimented her! Just like a veteran.”

“Who knows if she’s really one!” Another shrill voice giggled. “She looks so innocent that it’s possible there’s a story behind it!”

“What did you hear?”

“Shh…” The other person was heard lowering their voice. “I heard that Cordelia was able to sign the sale because someone was helping her!”

“Who? Mr. Ford? I heard that he pursued Cordelia when they were students—the guy was relentless! Hah, but the girl just wouldn’t agree!”

“It was probably not Jesse Ford. Why would he do Cordelia the favor and not his girlfriend? Besides, Karine spent three months on this deal. Even if it were Jesse, he wouldn’t be able to do it either!”

“You mean… there’s someone bigger above Cordelia?”

The group of people whispered among each other before breaking into laughter.

Finding it boring, Cordelia was about to turn away when she met Karine’s murderous eyes. She was alarmed and her heart beat fast, but she kept a composed expression on her face.

“Good day, Ms. Carmichael.”

Karine crossed her arms in front of her chest and sneered, “Pft, how good can my day be when you keep appearing in my field of vision all day?”
