Love’ss

Madelyn asked, ‘Is there really a problem with the draft? I’ll work overtime tonight then.”

She had rushed the design yesterday since shed only had a day. She also had to check the plans for the relevant sections, which was why she was in a rush yesterday.

She had focused more on the overall concept rather than the details of the design, so she had been prepared to have the design sent back.

However, Jessie did not answer her question.

Instead, she looked at Emma again, who smiled and said. “Don’t worry, Ms. Carter. I’ll work overtime tonight with Madelyn, and I guarantee that they’ll get a satisfactory design tomorrow.

Jessie sighed as she handed the project proposal to Emma. “It’s not

Madelyn who needs to make the changes. Yours was the one that got sent back.”

“What?” Emma was aghast.

Madelyn was startled as well.

Emma could not believe that Jessie was handing her design back. Had Jessie mistaken Emma’s design for Madelyn’s?

She grabbed it and flipped it open, and when she saw that it really was her design, her expression turned grim at once.

Madelyn was a beginner designer who had no experience, but her design was approved.

Why wasn’t Emma’s? Was she really worse than a beginner like Madelyn?

What kind of taste did the client have? Emma could not accept it.

Madelyn saw that Emma was looking more and more thunderous, and she could feel the tension in the office growing. She glanced at Jessie.

Jessie said, “On Monday, there’ll be two new designers joining the design. department. That’ll take the pressure off the two of you. Madelyn, you can continue to follow up. Jessie, work faster. The client is waiting.”

“Alright.” Madelyn nodded.

She took her design, turned, and went out. She was different from Emma. Emma had generously said that she would help, but Madelyn did not. If she said in front of Jessie that she would help Emma, who had been a designer for three years, it would only serve to humiliate Emma.

Emma only entered the office ten minutes later. There was a loud thump as she flung the folder onto her desk and glared viciously at Madelyn.

Madelyn asked, “Why are you looking at me like that?”

Emma sat down angrily on her chair. “Are you feeling very gleeful right now? You’re an intern, but your design passed while mine didn’t!”

“Were you arguing with Ms. Carter about that in the office just now?”

Emma could not accept it. From what she knew, Madelyn had no prior work experience, but she succeeded at her first attempt.

Emma had been working for three years! Although there had been times when her designs were sent back, she had never lost to an intern before.

She looked at Madelyn’s design project, which was just as complicated as hers was. However, Madelyn’s design had passed!

Emma looked disdainfully at her. “You copied that design, didn’t you? I saw it, and it resembles Naomi’s style!”

Madelyn’s expression darkened at once, and she looked frostily at Emma.

Emma’s eyes met hers, and she felt a momentary guilt. She was so angry that she had lost all sense of decorum. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

She ignored Madelyn and did not even apologize. She just tidied up her desk and threw herself into her work.

If it had been two days ago, Emma would’ve packed up and left there and then. However, she could no longer do that. This

was the branch company

317

of Unity Studios.

She wanted to work hard so that she could be transferred to Unity Studios, where her pay would also rise drastically.

Emma had no choice but to endure it for the sake of her future.

Madelyn lowered her head and said in a low voice, “I may just be an intern designer, but you’re not the design director either. We’re colleagues, so we should maintain a civil front. Even if you want to lord over me, please wait until you become the design director before doing so.”

Emma paused in the act of clicking on her mouse, her face flushing at what Madelyn had said. She looked up into Madelyn’s icy eyes, and her heart skipped a beat.

How could a young woman from a poor family have such poise?

However, Emma was afraid that Madelyn would snitch to Jessie and affect her future, so she suppressed her anger to say coldly, “Sorry!”

Madelyn couldn’t be bothered to pay any more attention to her. After all, there were all kinds of people in the world.
