ment too
Bradley glanced at her name tag briefly and asked, “Design Department One?” He thought, ‘Melissa seems to work in the department too.”
Hearing this, Katrina was too excited to maintain her composure, She nodded eagerly and said. “Yes, I’m Katrina. Last year, you presented me with The Employee of the Year award at the annual party.”
Bradley didn’t care for people who bragged and sucked up. His only response was a curt “Hmm.”
As he stepped into the exclusive executive elevator, Katrina, unwilling to give up, added quickly, “Mr. Moore, I have some questions I’d like to ask
If Lean share an elevator ride with him, it’ll be a dream come true. Surely he’ll remember me afterward! Katrina thought.
Katrina had every confidence in her looks, charm, and skill. She was always the center of attention wherever she went.
However, Bradley only cast her a cold glance. “If you love questions, consult your supervisor
Then the elevator doors closed in front of her, and Katrina stomped her foot in frustration
When Melissa returned from lunch, she overheard Katrina boasting loudly by the entrance.
“He actually called me by my name! I’m so surprised. He said, You must be Katrina from last year’s annual party, the one I gave the Employee of the Year award to, Katrina said smugly.
Melissa wasn’t interested in Katrina’s tales of past glories and walked straight to her desk. She tried to tune out the noise, but Katrina’s voice remained annoyingly persistent.
“I couldn’t believe it! Just one meeting, and Mr. Moore already remembers me so well; Katrina continued
A coworker chimed in with flattery, “Katrina, you’re gorgeous and talented. Of course, Mr. Moore would remember you!”
Katrina’s gaze drifted toward Melissa, and her tone turned sarcastic again. “But if we’re talking about real talent, our new hire is the most impressive one here.”
Calling Melissa by name, Katrina asked, “Melissa, I heard you were a star student. Is that true?
Melissa met her eyes with a calm smile. “Heard? From who?”
Scott wasn’t one to gossip, so Melissa knew this wasn’t his doing.
Katrina smirked and added, “It’s right there on your resume. It’s quite impressive, so I figured you must have been top of your class.”
Scott could see Melisus job application resume, so it was not surprising that Katrina had seen it either,
However, Melissa was still somewhat dissatisfied with the company’s management system in this regard. ‘Is this considered a breach of employee information? she wondered.
Thinking this, Melissa replied coolly, “Well, of course, resumes are always written to impress. Would you put ‘came in last place in high school on youn?
“I was never lastr Katrina snapped. Tos always top of my class!”
Melissa raised an eyebrow, her tone lazy. “Oh, so you’re a star student 100?”
Somehow, Katrina found the phrase “star student” grating now.
Before the conversation could escalate, Eric walked in with a stack of papers, clapping his hands to get everyone’s attention. “We’ve got a last- minute project, designing a parent–child clothing line. It’s urgent. Any yuhinterns?”

Katrina waved her hands quickly, replying. “Not me! I’ve got too

Then her gaze shifted to Melissa, and Katrina smirked. “Eric, our new hire hasn’t been assigned anything yet. Why not let her give it a shot?”
