NovelEnglishChapter 2191 Kiara sighed, "You know, the PerfBlending Department isn't as friendly as it appears on the surface." Kiara went on to explain that a significant portion of the PerfBlending Department employees' inccfrom bonuses, in addition to their base salary and skill-based pay. Ideally, bonuses should reflect the amount of work done by each team every month. However, in reality, there was a disparity in the capabilities of each team.
Steams were highly efficient and completed a lot of work, yet their bonuses were almost the sas those of other teams' members.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDarcie, being so astute, wouldn't be unaware of the drawbacks of this equal distribution. The root cause was that there were several relatives of high-level executives on the board of directors in the PerfBlending Department. These individuals were mostly just figureheads, as the PerfBlending Department had the highest salaries in the company, so they were placed there.
While swere receiving salaries without contributing, others naturally had to work harder. However, working harder didn't result in higher pay. Therefore, many in the PerfBlending Department were dissatisfied with this distribution method. But their dissatisfaction couldn't be shown in front of Jaylene and those high-level executives, so it fell onto Sonia, a newcomer without connections.
The entire PerfBlending Department knew that Sonia's father died in a plane crash, and out of pity for her orphaned state, the Saun family arranged for Sonia, who had just graduated, to join Caline, solving her employment problem. With less experience than others but earning similar pay, and having entered "through connections," Sonia naturally becisolated and marginalized.
She wasn't invited to team gatherings, assigned menial tasks or tasks that were on the fringe of importance, and was never allowed to participate in core tasks. Even if the tasks assigned to her were completed exceptionally well, they would still be criticized, and sometimes, in her presence, people would bring up her "connections" as a form of taunt. Darcie and Jaylene were certainly adding fuel to the fire.
Stella didn't visit the PerfBlending Department ref nly, and Sonia didn't speak much. If Kiara hadn't told her these things today, Stella would have thought Sonia was doing well in the PerfBlending Department.
"Ms. Saun is in the PerfBlending Department, and she knows better than anyone else how Sonia is doing, you know?" In other words, whether Sonia completed her tasks or not didn't matter; Jaylene just wanted a reason to exclude her.

Kiara continued, "One good thing about Sonia is that she keeps to herself. No matter how others bully her, she never speaks up. After a while, those people get bored and stop. If you stand up for Sonia, the overt isolation may stop, but there will be covert tactics." Kiara’s reasoning was sound. Even if Stella stood up for Sonia now, what about later? Sonia would still have to work in the PerfBlending Department, and they had plenty of ways to make it difficult for her there.
Stella clenched her fists. It took her a while to say, "Ms. Lark, | don’t know anyone in the PerfBlending Department except you. Can | ask you to look after Sonia?" Kiara hurriedly said, "Ms. Hall, you don't have to be so formal with me. | have limited influence. At most, | can make the tasks she’s assigned a little easier. But | can't control what others think." Stella replied warmly, "That's enough. | appreciate your kindness. If there's a need in the future, as long as it's within my ability, | will do my best to help you." Kiara waved her hand. "Ms. Hall, actually, I think Sonia doesn't care about these things. Even if she’s isolated, she doesn't seem to feel it. Most of the time, she's immersed in her own world, recording things." Stella simply said, "Let's do as I said. Thank you." Trevor had said that Sonia was emotionally oblivious, and considering Kiara's words, Stella thought Sonia might not even realize she was being isolated.
Her father had taught her how to interact with people, but now she was navigating this strange world alone, feeling lost and confused. Thinking of this, Stella couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
She knew Kiara's advice was sound, but she couldn't help but think: Sonia's beloved father had passed away, and she was already pitiable enough.
They brought her back, so they couldn't let people bully her in front of Stella.
When Stella lost her mother, nobody protected her, but now that she had the capability, she could protect another child who had lost her parents.
