NovelEnglishChapter 505 You're Irrelevant Now that we had new blood in the department, it seemed like everyone was much more proactive. However, all of it revolved around Mackenzie.
Someone would always bring her breakfast, and she didn't have to worry about work either. If she ran into any issues she couldn't handle, she could always let someone else handle it. Mr. Finnley would even take her out for business negotiations. In the blink of an eye, Mackenzie becthe most popular person in the design department. It almost seemed like all she had to do every day was look pretty and she would be able to take on any project; she didn't have to work at all. Meanwhile, Astrid and I diligently worked every single day and avoided Mackenzie. Both of us probably were too obvious with it because she would lob sarcastic remarks at us every day.
"Speople are just born to work like dogs. What's the point of working overtevery single day? It's just a project, for God's sake. My brother can secure it with a snap of his finger. Do you two really think you're something special?" When I let Astrid join my design team, Mackenzie was extremely displeased with us. She would make things difficult forfrom tto time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMackenzie even messed up my design on several occasions, and she would defend herself with the sexcuse every time; she was just an intern. So, it was normal for her to not know anything about it.
At first, my colleagues would defuse the situation and tellnot to get mad at the CEO's younger sister. Once enough tpassed, they found Mackenzie to be overly cocky too.
It was just that Mr. Finnley still treated her with unusual thoughtfulness and warmth. So, no one dared say anything.
It wasn't until Mackenzie wanted to join in on our little meeting and got retorted by Astrid that she actually pitted herself against us. Our project was highly confidential in the first place. In order to prevent information from leaking out, even Mr. Finnley had to stay away. However, Mackenzie was adamant about following us to our little meeting. Astrid couldn't take it anymore. "What are you doing, Mackenzie Lennon? You're not a part of the team! This is a top-secret project, and no one can join in the meeting as they please." Mackenzie flew into a rage when she heard Astrid calling her by her full name.
"I told you to callMack Lennon!" A lot of people had second guesses about Mackenzie's full name. Anne and a few other colleagues even looked into Jack's background to see if he actually had a younger sister.
Eventually, everyone found out that he did have a younger sister who was several years younger than him. Hence, all of them bought into the idea that Mackenzie was the heiress to the McLennon family.
Sof them even thought that Mackenzie might've adopted her mother's family name.
None of this mattered, though. If she didn't bother me, I wouldn't start a fight with her. However, the truth was that she pushed her luck tand again, and I was done tolerating her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAstrid was about to step forward, but I stood in front of her and shielded her "We're not that close. So, it's not that appropriate for us to be on a first-nbasis. Wouldn't you say, Ms. Lennon? Mr. McLennon approved the team I formed for the project. Feel free to take it up to him and make him personally add you to my team if you're not happy with it." Mackenzie frowned slightly. She probably didn't expect that Jack knew about this project. However, she still stood her ground and said, "If you can include an intern in the project, then you'll take Astrid out of the team. You're Rinatta, right? You should know who's a better fit for your team." Judging by her looks, it wasn't hard to know that Mackenzie wanted her non the project. She was still an intern. If she could participate in a big project, it would be much easier for her to pursue further study or land a job in the future.
I chuckled and nodded. "You're absolutely right. I do know who's a better fit for my team. Astrid's skills are quite good, and sof her works have won awards. I think she's more talented and diligent."
I noticed that the other members of my team were ready for the meeting, and I gently pushed Mackenzie out of En the way.
"Excuse me. We have to begin the meeting now. I would appreciate it if any y irrelevant person would stay out of our way, thanks."
