NovelEnglishChapter 179 Chapter 179: Soon after, a young woman knocked and entered the room. It was Jordyn Vazquez, the deputy director of the design department. Jordyn's makeup was impeccably done today, and her professional suit accentuated her confident demeanor.
Kyla's eyes briefly assessed Jordyn.
"Hello, Ms. Vazquez." "Miss Wade, hello." Jordyn approached, bowing slightly in respect.
She knew well that Kyla was highly influential within Noah's circle-and potentially his future wife. Crossing Kyla could jeopardize her career at Wall Group.

Do you understand what I'm implying?" Jordyn felt a slight tension build, her forehead beading with sweat. The storeroom was known for its poor conditions-a dark, damp space hardly suitable for anyone, much less for an office.
It was clear that Kyla intended to make Sadie's situation difficult.
Jordyn caught on quickly, her expression composed as she replied with a faint smile, "Absolutely, Miss Wade. I will ensure Sadie is 'well taken care of."" Kyla nodded, pleased. "You're sharp. Handle this well, and the director position could be yours." A spark of ambition flashed in Jordyn's eyes as she assured, “You can count on me. I won't disappoint you." Meanwhile, in the dimly lit storeroom, Sadie sat at a simple desk surrounded by clutter. The faint musty smell of the room and the inadequate lighting made the space nearly unbearable.
Design drafts were spread before her, and she held a pen, though she found it hard to begin working.
Rubbing her temples, Sadie sighed deeply, overwhelmed by the oppressive environment.

Just then, a knock cat the door.
"Please cin." The door creaked as it opened, and Jordyn entered.
Sadie looked up, her expression unreadable, as she regarded her visitor. Three years ago, when she worked as Noah's secretary, Sadie had met Jordyn.
Back then, Jordyn was just an ordinary employee. Now, in just three years, she had risen to the position of deputy director.

"Sadie, are you settling in okay?" "Thanks to Miss Wade, it's not too bad," Sadie replied dryly.
Jordyn feigned shock. "How can it not be? This is one- offices we of the finest m offices in Wall Group!" Sadie didn't reply, simply offering Jordyn a knowing half-smile.
Feeling somewhat uncomfortable under Sadie's steady gaze, Jordyn cleared her throat and changed the subject. "Would you like to join the department dinner tonight?" "No, thank you," Sadie answered without hesitation.
"Oh, con! We were all colleagues once, and now we keep running into each other. It's only polite to meet everyone and say hello!" Jordyn's tone was light, yet there was an underlying insistence in her words. Sadie realized that declining might give Jordyn a reason to complicate her situation further.
