Chapter 96 A Slap in the Face
Laurel’s voice was sudden.
The rhythm on the scene was clearly disrupted.
Avril’s footsteps noticeably paused. Caught off guard, she even accidentally sprained her foot.
Lillian acted quickly and caught Avril, saying, “Ms. Lambert, be careful.”
She treated Avril with caution, even with a hint of
appeasement.
Avril turned her head. At the moment she saw Laurel, her face changed color.
Avril always appeared fragile in the Lambert family. She wanted to highlight her vulnerability in front of
dominant individuals in order to gain sympathy. But this is the workplace. Avril is well aware that the
workplace requires tactics and ruthlessness, a confident posture, and the respect of everyone.
Therefore, she must show her true self. Moreover, Avril must admit that the pleasure of being
complimented makes her very proud.
She had long wanted to enter the workplace and wanted to get everything in a place like this!
However, at this moment she was very surprised.
She didn’t expect Laurel to be there.

Chip 96 Slap in the Face
Avril didn’t know how to face Laurel.
If she continued to be arrogant, she would be very embarrassed. After all, she had always been weak
and powerless in front of Laurel.

But if Avril were to revert to her weak appearance in the Lambert family, then she would have just been
making a fool of herself. She couldn’t imagine how much of a joke she would become in the eyes of
these employees.
Laurel saw Avril’s panic and confusion in that moment.
Since she was afraid of being exposed, why did Avril bother to put on two faces?
Laurel wanted to speak.
But it was Lillian who spoke first, supporting Avril. Her tone was clearly displeased, “Aren’t you looking
for the director? The director’s office is just inside. And the director hasn’t arrived yet, so you should go
to the office and wait for a while.”
“I wasn’t looking for the director, I am the new sales department director,” Laurel said bluntly.
“New director?” Lillian was taken aback.
At that moment, she suddenly remembered that yesterday she seemed to have received a notice that
the former director had been transferred to another branch as the general manager, and a new director
would come today. But she also received news that Ms. Lambert would also come to work today. Not
Gemma, but her sister Avril. Avril would take over Gemma’s position. Everyone knew that Gemma
came from

the Lambert family and she was someone not to be messed with in the sales department. Anyone who
offended her had a bad outcome, even the director had to listen to Gemma. Although it was Gemma’s
sister who was coming, Lillian dare not be negligent at all, so she put all her energy into welcoming the
new Ms. Lambert, completely forgetting to welcome the new director.
The key point is, this young woman in front of us doesn’t look like she is going to be the director. Lillian
believes that only people who are at least 30 or 40 years old are qualified to be the director!
Lillian now knew that Laurel was the director.
But she was not afraid either.
Anyway, as long as Ms. Lambert had her back, Lillian was not afraid of the director.
She quickly said, “So, you are the director. Perfect, let me introduce you to Ms. Lambert, Ms. Lambert
from the Lambert family.”
Lillian deliberately emphasized “the Lambert family”.
She did this to remind Laurel.
She wanted to remind Laurel not to provoke Avril.
Because Laurel couldn’t afford to provoke Avril.
Laurel chuckled lightly.
Lillian didn’t pay attention, but Avril’s face changed.
Avril’s face turned pale.

Chlap in the Te
At that moment, she finally realized it.
If she had been any later, Avril couldn’t imagine what these employees would have done.
Avril dared not offend Laurel at all now.
Avril hurriedly approached and grabbed Laurel’s hand, “Cousin, you also came to the company.”
Cousin?!
All the employees on site were stunned.

Lillian’s body stiffened, and she looked at Laurel in disbelief.
She saw Avril’s appeasing demeanor towards Laurel.
As a secretary, Lillian naturally had a deeper understanding of the Lambert Group.
Gemma is the niece of Irvin, the chairman of the Lambert Group, and the daughter of Kermit, the vice
president. Avril is Gemma’s younger sister, so she is Kermit’s daughter, and now Avril calls this woman
her cousin.
The Lambert family only had two brothers, the chairman and the vice president. So, this woman is…
the chairman’s daughter, Laurel.
As soon as I thought of this.
Lillian was about to faint.
She never expected that the new director of the sales
department would be such an important figure.

Lillian heard that the chairman’s daughter never wanted to work and only wanted to be a good wife and
mother.
She heard that Laurel wouldn’t come to the company to help
her father.
And Laurel had just gotten married.
She should be on her honeymoon now.
A young lady from a wealthy family, who didn’t want to work, started working just a few days after her
wedding.
Lillian did not anticipate.
But now she met Laurel.
Lillian was extremely embarrassed.
However, Laurel did not pay attention to Lillian.
She looked at Avril and casually said, “I didn’t expect the efficiency of the Lambert Group’s employees
to be so high. My dad only agreed to let you come to the company
yesterday, and now your office is already prepared. They even sprayed perfume. It smells nice.”
The employee who sprayed perfume felt a sudden tightness in his heart.
She involuntarily lowered her head, looking as if she dared not face anyone.
“Avril’s office has been cleaned, can you help me tidy up my office a little now?” Laurel raised her
eyebrows.
She was not angry, but she looked very dignified.

“Ms. Lambert, I will clean up immediately, I will personally do it,” Lillian said obsequiously.
Laurel directly refused, “No need, let the janitor do it. Ten minutes later, gather all the employees at or
above the supervisory level in the sales department for a meeting in the conference room.”
“Yes,” Lillian said respectfully.
Laurel turned her head and glanced at Avril, “You go too.”
“Yes, cousin.” Avril quickly agreed.
“Where is the meeting room?” Laurel asked.
“I will take you there,” Lillian said attentively.
“You took me there,” Laurel casually pointed at an employee.
She completely ignored Lillian.
Lillian was extremely embarrassed.
The employee who was pointed at hurriedly stepped forward and said, “This way, Ms. Lambert.”
Laurel left.
When she left, she turned back and reminded, “I am allergic to perfume.”
The meaning is to ask employees not to spray perfume in her office.
Her words sarcastically mocked Avril.
Chain the Face
Laurel left with a strong aura.

After Laurel left, Avril angrily scolded Lillian, “Are you useless? Didn’t you even know that my cousin
came to the company? Are you intentionally trying to embarrass me by doing these things?”
“No, Ms. Lambert, I really didn’t know that it was your cousin who came to be the director. I really had
no idea. I only received a message saying that a new director would be coming, but no one specifically
informed me. And the secretary’s office only notified me to take good care of you, no one mentioned
your cousin…”
“Shut up!” Avril didn’t want to hear any more.
She only knew that on her first day of work, she was harshly humiliated by Laurel, and she felt
extremely embarrassed.
