The following week, Natalie took precautions to avoid running into Ike, but Ike kept on hinting at her from time to time.
One morning, she went to the convenience store downstairs to buy some coffee.
As she waited in line, two women glanced at her and started whispering to each other. “Isn’t that the woman from the design department who hooks up with Ike?”
“Yeah, I think so!”
Natalie overheard their loud whispering and frowned deeply. “What are you two talking about?”
The two women were shocked by her sudden confrontation. They quickly shook their heads and smiled embarrassedly. “Nothing, nothing. We mistook you for someone else, that’s all.”
But that wasn’t the last Natalie heard of this. She soon realized that someone from the design department must have spread unpleasant rumors about her and Ike.
And those rumors spread like wildfire. Some colleagues who used to be nice to Natalie even started to keep their distance from her.
Previously, Natalie was viewed as a well-mannered, kind young woman in the design department.
But now that someone had spoken ill of Natalie behind her back, people began to view her in a different light.
It was Pamela who had first shown hostility towards her.
Ever since Ike announced that he would select Natalie’s design, Pamela had been hostile to Natalie to her face.
