"Got it, Director Emma."
People were all stunned for a while before walking towards the conference room one by one with their
own notebooks. They each had different looks.
Director Emma's name was Emma, the second-in-command of Design B Department.
Emma's face softened when she saw that everyone was cooperating. After looking around, she turned
around and strutted into the conference room.
She left Meredith in the same spot and ignored her.
Meredith looked around. The office was empty, and she was standing right in the middle of the aisle
where Emma was standing just now. They were only a few steps away.
They were standing face to face, so it was impossible that Emma did not see her. Then she must do it
deliberately.
Meredith stood there in silence for a while, then took her bag and walked towards the conference room.
After a few knocks, Meredith pushed open the conference room door and walked in gracefully, but...
There was a loud bang.
Emma's face was sullen, and she slammed the document in her hand onto the table, making a loud
noise. Then she shrilled angrily.
"Who are you? This is the conference room, the most important department. Who allowed you to come
in without permission?"
Meredith could not help but frown slightly. No matter how unhappy this Designer Emma was, she had
received a transfer order through formal procedures.
To put it bluntly, from the moment she was transferred, she was the Design Director of the B
Department. And Designer Emma was still a deputy director.
In fact, she was Emma's immediate superior.
But Meredith was a little surprised by Emma's unbridled rejection and provocations regardless of their
leader-member relation.
Meredith just thought about these for a few seconds, then her lips slightly curved and made a gentle
smile. She was calm, as if she was not angry at being offended. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
But what she said hit the nail on the head.
"Sorry to interrupt the meeting. You must be Ms. Ross. Let me introduce myself. I'm Meredith Mason,
the new Director of B Department."
"Although you are sitting in my seat at the moment, I just came here and haven't had time to familiarize
myself with the design cases for B Department. Then today's meeting will be temporarily replaced by
Ms. Ross."
As Meredith spoke, she calmly sat in the back row of chair and smiled, "Ms. Ross, you can continue."
The whole conference room was dead silent.
The designers on the left and right side silently looked at the others out of the corner of their eyes.
Even though their hearts were in turmoil, their faces did not show a trace.
They were really surprised. Sure enough, the person who could be directly appointed Director would
not be easy to bully. Director Emma's face was scary.
Emma was almost mad, but she could not refute a single word that Meredith had said.
She had been the Deputy Director for years, and she hated the word deputy for a long time. So the
staff in B Department usually called her Director Emma.
She had not heard of the title Deputy Director for a long time. Now she heard it again, she felt she was
reminded that she was just a Deputy Director, and that she would never become Director.
Wasn't it natural for the Deputy Director to take over the position of Director when it is vacant? She was
confident that she would become Director a few days ago and just began to work in the office of
Director without waiting for the transfer order.
Only a few days later, the reality destroyed her, completely ruining all her dreams.
How could she not be angry?
Emma's furious face could not be covered even if she wanted to. Meredith lowered her eyes and
sighed silently. If she could, she really didn't want to build a stiff relationship with Emma.
Meredith preferred to focus on the design, but it was obviously impossible. Even those fashion bigwigs
who had already stood at the top still had things they had to face and had no opportunity to refuse.
Meredith put these thoughts away and looked at Emma, "What's wrong, Ms. Ross? You don't look well.
Are you feeling well?"
Emma took a deep breath and suppressed her anger. She had been able to make trouble with
Meredith when Meredith was not appointed Director.
Now that Meredith had become Director, she couldn't openly make things difficult with Meredith.
After all, Emma was an old employee who had been working in the department for so many years. If
she wasn't too angry, she wouldn't have made mistakes and let others have chance to blame her. She
had to be polite on the surface.
As Emma thought about it, she forced a tug at the corner of her mouth, but the curve she revealed was
ferocious, "No, I'm not uncomfortable. Thank you for your concern... Miss Mason."
Emma just couldn't call Meredith Director Mason.
Meredith naturally realized it and smiled faintly, "I heard that the rules and regulations of Xavier Group's
headquarters are very strict, and the upper and lower classes are clear. In the company, I think Ms.
Ross should call me Director Mason."
Emma, "..."
"I see, Director Mason," Emma said reluctantly.
"We've wasted much time, so let's start the meeting as soon as possible," Meredith said.
In fact, this meeting, originally, was an excuse that Emma used to embarrassed Meredith. But now,
even if she was unprepared, she still pretended that she did have something important to talk about on
the meting. Emma had no choice but to discuss the topic which had been discussed last regular
meeting.
As a result, the faces of the people on both sides who attended this conference were very strange.
After half an hour, the meeting was over.
Meredith stood up and walked up to Emma, "Ms. Ross, I'm on my first day of work today. I don't know
where my office is yet. Can you help me lead the way?"
Emma's face stiffened, and it occurred to her that although the notice had been issued for several days
about the transfer, she did not move out of the Director's Office.
Now that Director came, it meant that Emma was going back to her original office. Naturally, Emma
was not happy.
Emma now knew the difference between the Deputy Director's Office and Director's Office. The
Director's Office was the right workplace for a manager. On the aspects of room size, the facilities, the
configuration, her office was not comparable to this.
After enjoying the big office, no one would be willing to go back.
Emma tugged at the corner of her lips, "Director Mason, I'm so sorry. I'm using the Director's Office."
"After all, after the last Director left, Design B Department still had to run normally. There were many
things every day. The Director's Office was large and spacious and I thought it was more convenient
and efficient to work, so I moved in."
