Chapter 289 To Be More Calculating Than Her When they saw Elisa, surprise flickered across their eyes. There were people who recognized her.
Isn't... isn't this the previous boss’ daughter? She's also the ex-wife of Mr. Wickam from Wickam Group, the woman Mr. Darcey is pursuing, and the famous, outstanding, great lawyer, Iris! Her identities caused a stir. Most people recognized her.

There were those who were greeting Linda and Julie.
“Ms. Benett, Ms. Kent.” Here, Linda was also a manager at the audit department and also the superior of Julie, manager of the marketing department.
But from others’ perspective, Linda was more easygoing. She didn’t like to be called ‘Ma'am’, and she didn’t like empty titles, so she told others to call her ‘Ms. Benett'.
Linda just smiled and nodded at everyone. “Hello, everyone. The person who will be working with you is my younger sister. | think everyone knows her. But I'm telling you all this today not for you to take extra care of her but to treat her as an ordinary colleague. Just treat her as you would in your daily interactions. She doesn’t need special treatment.” Linda's voice was easygoing, but it had the strictness of an elder sister. The fact that she said this in front of so many people was enough to prove that there wasn’t envy or pettiness between sisters; she just wanted her younger sister to succeed.
Elisa stood silently beside Linda and didn’t say anything.

Elisa nodded at everyone. “Thank you.” Linda smiled as she said, “This will do as the welcome ceremony. My sister has a pretty dull personality, so she doesn't really speak much. You can just ignore it. And remember what | said. Don’t ever take special care of her. She needs to learn through experience. If | find out that anyone has been taking extra care of her, | might fire my sister. She won't bear any grudges because of this. In fact, if there are people who put her to the test, | will give them a small benefit. Thank you for being by her side as she learns through experience.” Scorn flashed across Elisa's eyes. Even though Linda seemed lenient and generous on the surface, in reality, wasn't she digging more holes for Elisa? In that moment, Lily Dwyer, the assistant manager, suddenly smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry, Ms. Benett. We will remember what you've said!” Lily had always been a vain opportunist.
Julie glanced at Lily but didn’t say anything.
Linda spoke to everyone for a while more before looking at Julie. “Sorry to trouble you, Julie.” Julie nodded calmly. “It's what | should be doing.” Linda smiled and looked at Elisa. “Good luck, Liz. | believe in you.” Elisa nodded obediently. “Thank you for your encouragement, Linda.” Even if Elisa didn't like manipulative b*tches, she had to put on an act at appropriate times. When met with a manipulative b*tch, the only way to beat her was to be more calculating than her.
Linda nodded in a gratified manner. “All the best, Liz. | believe that you can make it here one day. I'll be waiting for you!” Although Linda said that, Linda was sneering at her. She believed that Elisa wouldn't even last three months here.
Even if Elisa had a strong nature, there were performance reviews and evaluations here. She definitely wouldn't let Elisa successfully finish every task! mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLII0fiflO& 1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWL1i10fif10&1 mmMwWLIiI0fiflO&1
