Anna's announcement that she was terminating her contract went viral in half a day on social platforms.
As the Gu Consortium's woes were the hottest topic of discussion again, the plagiarism case also resurfaced in the debates raging between the netizens.
Both sides kept mum on the specific details of the contract termination. Hence, the public debated and theories abounded.
The most popular comment was, "The Gu Consortium is in trouble again! Now that they've offended Anna, their top designer, it seems they're really going downhill."
After reading these derisive comments, Emily closed the web page. She rubbed her temples to ease her throbbing headache. Recently, she felt lost in the company's turmoil, and she was struggling to deal with it all.
Knock, knock, knock...
There was a knock at the door. Emily forced herself to cheer up, coughed to clear anxiety from her throat, and said in a clear voice, "Come in!"
Emily looked at the door as Estelle entered. The young designer had received medical treatment for the wound on her face. She looked at Emily with a pair of nervous and teary eyes now.
"I'm sorry!"
Estelle's voice choked with sobs. Her eyes were red like a bunny's, and she looked at Emily apologetically.
Emily was stunned and smiled gently. "Why? Did you do anything wrong?"
"I... I caused the trouble with Anna."
After saying that, Estelle bowed to Emily. Emily went over to help Estelle up and said, "That has nothing to do with you. Don't blame yourself too much."
Although Emily was still clueless as to the nature of the conflict between Estelle and Anna today, it was clear that Estelle hadn't fought back. It had indeed been improper for Anna to hit Estelle like this.
"Well, now you should go prepare for the internal design competition. I have very high expectations for you. I hope you won't let me down."
Emily patted Estelle's shoulder to comfort her. Although she was also worried about the after effects of Anna's contract termination, she would not blame Estelle for no reason.
Estelle looked up at Emily and nodded. Right now her emotions were in turmoil.
E
ly, they had both heard the interesting conversation that had transpired in the bathroom.
"Anna's termination of her contract with the Gu Consortium should be a good opportunity for you. Don't blame me for not reminding you. Your father is not going to last if you waste this opportunity."
Estelle, who was fearfully listening to the man's ominous voice, felt uneasy at his threat. She squeezed the phone in her hand for a moment and replied in a low voice, "I know!"
After hanging up the call and stepping out of the cubicle, she saw someone from the design department at the taps.
Estelle didn't know the woman, but she was aware that she had been one of Anna's followers when Anna was still there. Suddenly, Estelle had a guilty feeling, perhaps because she had just hung up the call with Ethan.
She nodded to the woman in the bathroom and quickly left.
The woman in the bathroom raised her eyebrows when she saw Estelle depart in a rush. Something unusual flashed through her eyes.
After the conversation in the bathroom, Emily seemed to be newly invigorated. She toiled day and night and put all her energy into the internal competition.
The design department also enjoyed a period of peace after Anna's departure, and Estelle also heaved a long sigh upon the reprieve.
At least, no one had time to watch her anymore, since they were all utterly absorbed in preparing for the internal competition.
