Once the three senior designers saw the sullen look on Janet’s face, they quickly went back to their respective desks and pretended like they hadn’t been gossiping a while back.

“It’s almost as if they think their job here is to gossip. They are always chatting incessantly. This time, they have gone too far. More than anything, I’m sure you are relying on your strength here. How could they say such a thing? Humph!” Gerda stared at them angrily. She felt bad for Janet and wished she could give the rumormongers a tongue-lashing.

But on the other hand, Janet wasn’t that angry. This wasn’t the first time she was hearing such a rumor, so she had developed a thick skin over time.

When Pamela spread false rumors about me in the past, I retorted because I caught her red-handed.” Janet turned on the computer and began to work. Staring at the design drawings, she added, “None of them dares to gossip about me in my presence. They always backbite. I don’t take such people seriously. If they are bold enough, they will say it to my face.”

“Does this mean you will allow them to continue gossiping about you? Won’t you take any action against them?” Gerda was amazed by Janet’s nonchalance despite the severity of the matter.

“Hmm!” Janet sighed. She stood up from her seat and looked at her colleagues. “A clear conscience fears no accusation. I didn’t do anything wrong, so I’m not bothered at all. Only those who are up to no good should be bothered!”
