The Ice-Cold Executive Gets A Wife Novel - Chapter 157
Chapter 157: Gossip Outbreak
Daisy followed the crowd into the elevator. There weren’t many people in the elevator, and everyone else was in a group except for her. People were still whispering. Unfortunately, Daisy had to get off when she reached the third floor. Otherwise, she would have heard more.
However, when Daisy walked into the office, she realized that she had underestimated this time’s impact. When the people in the office saw that Daisy had arrived, they glanced at her and continued to chat. Other than worrying about Rosa, they did not care about anyone else.
“Did you see that handsome blonde boy who came to deliver flowers to the intern earlier? Wow, he looks like Leonardo when he was young.”
“What do you mean? Did he send them to the company? Are there any photos or videos of the incident?”
“Where did you see it?”
“In the lobby on the first floor. We asked you to come downstairs for lunch with us, but you couldn’t leave then. You missed it! It was a good show.”
“Which intern?”
“The one in the investment analysis department. The one who was given an exception. ”
“Oh, are you talking about the pregnant woman?”
“Are you talking about the pregnant woman?” Someone, who did not know about that, asked. She did not even know that there was a pregnant intern at NRTE because she knew the intensity of the work at NRTE. Some employees who got pregnant accidentally chose to take a break or quit. She had never heard of anyone who dared to work at NRTE after getting pregnant. On top of that, it was at the investment analysis department! That department was not a humane place.
“You work day and night. You must have gone stupid from work. Didn’t you see her earlier? Her belly is showing. Even our company’s full-time employees do not dare to get pregnant. This woman is amazing. She is coming in with a big belly.”
“That man’s name is Norman. He seems to be some rich kid of some family. I heard that his family’s business is ranked among the top ten in the country.”
Daisy knew that Norman’s family background was not bad, but her impression of Norman improved after hearing what her colleague said.
“There is more than one handsome man now. A woman with ordinary looks and family background can seduce so many outstanding young men. I’m envious.”
“You know the man’s family background? What about the woman? What does the woman’s family do?”
“The woman’s name is Sophia, right? Her family is also quite well-to-do. Definitely can’t find an
NRTE employee with such a family background.”
“And? Did she get in with her own merits?”
“It should be through connections. I heard that she slept her way in and that she worked at a hotel. ”
“Nonsense. She’s so beautiful. How could she do such a thing?”
“Do you know how many people use beauty as leverage? Just because you never thought of doing that, you think nobody else would? How did she get pregnant with Norman’s child then?” “Who said that? Women in society now are so open-minded.”
“Yeah, from what I heard, she got pregnant from a one-night stand. Since there are no feelings, why would she stay with him?”
“After all, the guy’s family is in the top ten richest in the country. Isn’t it a good way to make a fortune with their children? It will be many years before they have to work hard. Young people nowadays only want to take the shoftcuts to success.”
“Okay, okay, stop gossiping. Our supervisor is coming back. Hurry up and get back to work.”
” “Okay.
In the past, the focus of everyone’s discussion in school had always been Daisy. Now, their attention was all on Sophia from the first day Sophia entered the company. To be exact, they had started talking even before she joined the company.
The pregnant intern, who the company had hired, was now an investment analysis assistant on the twenty-third floor. Meanwhile, Daisy was doing some tedious and repetitive tasks on the third floor. She used to be standing on the stage, under the spotlight.
Norman’s appearance this time gave Sophia a different kind of ‘popularity’ in the company, which was exactly what Daisy wanted. She guessed if people were already gossiping on her floor, discussions must be flying in every other department then.
Sophia, the ‘golden assistant’, was the topic of much gossip. Daisy was secretly happy about it. What she needed to do now was to make people look at Sophia differently. The drama would be epic if she could make this gossip fly even faster.
But she felt that something was missing. What was it? Forget it. She won’t think about it for now.
In the current NRTE gossip, Sophia was the target. It was a kind of affirmation of the situation that Daisy had created. Although she was ‘behind the scenes’ this time, the feeling was not that worse than being on the stage. Moreover, Daisy believed that she would be able to make Sophia leave NRTE with her tail between her legs in the future. By then, she would be able to get close to Sebastian and catch him.
‘[’11 reward you tonight.’ Daisy tapped ‘send’. Norman was very useful, be it to disrupt Sophia’s life or to solve her biological needs..
