Chapter 661 Disagree With Her
Rose nodded. "Okay."
"Don't overwork yourself," Clover said.
"Okay."
Miles chimed in, "Whatever happens, always be honest with us."
"Okay."
Miles and Clover gave their advice one after another, and Rose agreed to everything. She understood that their advice came from a place of care for her. "Miles, Clover, don't worry. I'll be fine," Rose said with a gentle smile on her face. Her smile left the two of them momentarily dazed.
Ever since Jonathan went missing, even when Rose managed to smile, it was with a sense of sadness that tugged at their hearts.
But at this moment, it seemed like she had returned to her former self-Lively, playful, pure, and warm.
She even said she would be just fine!
At that moment, Mile and Clover finally felt a bit of relief from the worries they had been carrying for some time.
They continued their search for Jonathan every day without fail, but each time returned with no news. They weren't sure if Jonathan would ever come back.
If Jonathan didn't come back, Rose still had to continue with her life.
"Alright. It's also good to do something you want to do," Miles said. He looked at her gently. Whatever she wanted to do, he would support her.
Clover frowned and asked, "What do you want to do?"
What did she want to do? Rose did not respond to him.
Instead, she planned to go to Young's House of Jewels in three days.
...
Olivia received the news early on that Rose was coming. After the reveal of the true identity of "Harriette" that day, the position of design director for Young Group was left vacant. The next day, Miles appointed Olivia to fill the position.
During this period, she had done an exceptional job as the design director.
In the pantry, word had already spread.
"Ms. Shaffer has arrived at the company."
"Now that Mr. Young has returned and is overseeing all the businesses of Young Group, Ms. Shaffer has taken a break, but I heard she wants to work on something again."
"She's coming to Young's House of Jewels probably to manage it, right?"
"I heard that's not the case. Ms. Shaffer has a background in design, so it's more
likely to be a position related to design..."
If it was a position related to design, that would mean...
"The design director?"
The people in the pantry were even more excited at that, and they became gossipy.
"Olivia only recently became the design director, and now she already has to step down."
The group took pleasure in others' misfortunes. They had been working at Young's House of Jewels for many years, yet they were still just junior employees.
Olivia was just a receptionist at Young Group's headquarters. However, due to a single word from Rose, she went from being an assistant to the design director. Olivia was soon promoted to the position of design director by Miles.
They didn't believe there was nothing fishy going on about her appointment.
After Olivia became the design director, no one in the design department was convinced by her appointment.
For a while, everyone was eager to see Olivia make a fool of herself.
"Heh! She barely warmed the seat, and now she has to give it up. How is she going to face working in the design department in the future?"
Among the employees, the person with the most experience, Natalie Conway, laughed.
The others joined in the laughter, but suddenly, some of their expressions changed slightly.
"What's wrong? Why are you blinking?"
They followed that person's gaze and saw Olivia holding a cup of water, looking
upset. She clearly overheard what they had just said.
The group had an awkward expression on their faces.
However, Natalie, after an initial moment of awkwardness, quickly brushed it off without a second thought.
With a completely unabashed smile, she seemed eager to watch the drama unfold, saying, "If I were her, I'd leave Young Group right away. Otherwise, it would be really embarrassing later on!"
The blatant sarcasm left everyone else feeling quite unsettled.
After all, Olivia was the design director and their boss.
Everyone thought Olivia was about to make a scene, but instead, she just gave a
faint smile, picked up a cup, and calmly made herself a coffee.
Then, she held the coffee and walked away!
She walked away?
The group looked at each other in silence.
"She... won't make things difficult for us, will she?"
One person seemed a bit worried. Once Rose arrived, the position of design director Olivia currently held would no longer be hers, but the question remained-when would Rose actually come?
At that moment, the group's phones simultaneously chimed with notification alerts.
"Ms. Shaffer is here!"
In the chat, there was also a photo of Rose getting out of a car.
"Make things difficult for us? Ha! She won't have the chance."
Natalie let out a cold laugh at a thought that crossed her mind. Without finishing
her coffee, she hurriedly adjusted her clothing and rushed out of the pantry.
The others quickly caught on-Rose had arrived, and this was their chance to perform.
For a moment, everyone rushed toward the door.
Rose stepped into Young's House of Jewels to a thunderous applause that caught her off guard. Everyone was smiling and welcoming her, but she didn't see Olivia.
"Where is Olivia?" she asked.
Miles had told her that Olivia replaced the fake Harriette as the design director. That was actually her original intention as well.
Perhaps because of the experience that day at the villa, she developed a unique trust in Olivia. Since she arrived in her territory, she expected to see her.
"Ms. Lenner, um, she..."
Someone was about to direct them to the design director's office when someone suddenly approached Rose, saying, "Ms. Shaffer, Ms Lenner might be busy. If you have any instructions, I can help instead."
The one who spoke was Natalie.
She had a smile on her face, but Rose sensed something subtly uneasy about it.
"There's nothing much going on, just some personnel changes that require Ms. Lenner's approval."
Olivia was the only one who could handle this matter. No one else could take her
place.
But Rose's words caused quite a stir among the crowd.noveldrama
When Rose entered Olivia's office, though no one dared to speak loudly, the glances exchanged among them were filled with
malicious glee. It was almost net
to the
point of overflowing from their expressions.
"Ms. Shaffer mentioned that any personnel changes would require Ms. Lenner's approval. It likely means Olivia will have to step down."
"Yes, absolutely. Is Ms. Shaffer planning to move Olivia to that position? To go
back to a small-fry secretary?"
"She's got to have some nerve! She should be an assistant again! She'd be better
off leaving Young Group and just walking away!"
"Yes. I'm betting she's going to quit."
"Yeah. I'm betting she's going to leave too."
The quiet whispers of the conversation were shut out by the closed office door.
Olivia saw Rose come in and was momentarily taken aback, but she quickly regained her composure. She stood up with a big smile to greet Rose. "Ms. Shaffer, you've arrived! Please, have a seat. Let me pour you some water."
Olivia picked up the jug and noticed it was empty. A hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes, which she quickly hid. "Ms. Shaffer, please hold on. I'll go get some water."
As Olivia was leaving, Rose called out to her, "Olivia."
Olivia stopped in her tracks as Rose got up and walked over to her. "That spot isn't very comfortable, is it?"
Olivia paused noticeably while holding the cup of water in her hand.
She met Rose's gaze and felt as though she was being seen through, so she
decided not to hide anything anymore. "Ms. Shaffer, it's really difficult. Ms. Shaffer,
can -"
"No way!"
Before Olivia could say anything, Rose interrupted her with that firm sentence full of conviction.
Olivia stared blankly at Rose. "Ms. Shaffer, why are you..."
"How do I know what you're going to say?" Rose raised an eyebrow. "I'm not naïve. As soon as I walked into the company, I noticed it. They..."
Rose took a glance outside the office and said, "I don't agree with you!"
