Chapter 52
“No, I can’t accept this!” Eliza blew a short fuse. She created a scene, demanding an explanation.
The news soon got to the senior executives.
Lewis Rivera, one of the senior directors, came down to the floor and tried to explain things.
“Calm down, everyone. There was no foul play during the decision-making process. The promotion was made according to the company’s rules and the performance report of the employees.”
Eliza didn’t buy this explanation.
“Loraine is just a newcomer. I have been working in this company for years. How come she’s ranked higher than me?”
Lewis smiled. “Eliza, I’d love to remind you that Loraine solved a huge design problem during her interview. That alone made gave her more points than you got this year.”
Eliza’s jaw dropped when she heard this.
Lewis continued, “More so, Loraine was able to close the deal of the amusement park. You of all people know how much that deal is worth. Do you need me to say it anyways?”
Eliza was Livid. The amusement park project had been hers, but Loraine snatched it away.
Those two projects were what made Loraine’s performance rating shoot to the very top. As much as Eliza wanted to challenge the decision, she couldn’t do so anymore.
Loraine, who had wanted to turn down the appointment, changed her mind after learning that she achieved it due to her ability.
Lewis turned to Loraine and smiled at her.
“Congratulations, Loraine.
Keep up the good work.”
Loraine nodded.
“Thank you, sir. I’ll try my best.”
The objection from the other workers soon died down.
Actually, most of them were relieved that Loraine was chosen as the new director.
Although she was just a newcomer, they couldn’t deny the fact that she had achieved great feats in a short time. She was diligent at work. It was also easy to get along with her because she wasn’t as bossy and vile as Eliza. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Most of them didn’t hesitate to congratulate her sincerely.
Everything was settled now.
Eliza was reluctant to be led by her work enemy, but she could only grit her teeth in silence.
