Stella thought to herself, ‘Well, I wouldn’t feel great either if someone who knows nothing about perfumery became my general manager.’ She had seemingly appeared out of nowhere and assumed such a prominent role in the company. Moreover, she was the reason everyone had to pause their work just to welcome her, despite not having proven herself to the company yet.
