The Bound Between Us

Chapter 174

Anastasia said with an awkward smile, “I just said maybe.” It seemed that her period was indeed a week late this month.

Victor laughed. “If you’re really pregnant, that’s great. The company will give you leave and keep your position. Your salary won’t change either.

“Is it really that good?” Anastasia thought it was too good to be true.

In Victor’s mind, if Anastasia was really pregnant, the boss would be thrilled. He would even send him back to headquarters. Not only would her salary remain the same, but she would even get a raise.

Victor reassured Anastasia, “Don’t worry, we’re a legit company. You can work without fear. You’ll handle the design department, and I’ll have someone help you.”

Walking out of Victor’s office, Anastasia felt dazed. It felt like she was stunned by an enormous surprise. Everything was too surreal.

It wasn’t until she received the notice of position adjustment from HR that she realized this wasn’t a dream. Anastasia becoming the chief designer was big news to the other employees in the design department.

Anastasia, who had been at the company for less than a month, replaced Selena and became the chief designer. This kind of unconventional promotion was unheard of in the company.

Everyone in the design department was shocked. Except for Lauren, no one could accept the result. They had been working for the company for several years. When Selena left, they thought they had a chance, but they didn’t expect to be overtaken by Anastasia. They felt wronged.

The workplace was a battlefield. No one congratulated Anastasia. They courteously called her Director Jewell when they saw her.
