Chapter 189 This Is Not Somewhere You Can Sit
Most of them in the Design Department were disdainful of Whitney’s arrival. They were all designers, and with the
exception of the interns, almost all of them looked down on an assistant.
It was only for Nicole’s sake that they didn’t express it out loud.
Hearing Whitney’s self-introduction, Scarlett also moved forward and introduced herself, “Hi Whitney, Scarlett here.
I’m Lisa’s assistant at Gardner Corporation.”
Whitney waved and replied, “Hello, Scarlett.” It was as if she’d known Scarlett for a long time.
Following their greetings, they simply chattered for a while before they stopped saying anything more.
Whitney randomly found an empty chair to sit on, and coincidentally, that was Sabrina’s seat before she left. Its
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtentire area was like a small cubicle isolated from any noise outside while having good lighting at the same time.
However, before she could sit long, a woman appeared before her. Seeing that Whitney was on the seat, the
woman looked at her condescendingly and asked harshly, “Who are you?”
Whitney was irritated by the woman’s arrogant attitude. She raised her head and responded, “I’m an assistant. Are
there any issues?”
“A new assistant?” Lexi asked, raising her voice a few decibels. “Are you aware that this seat is not for an
assistant?”
Everyone in the office turned to look at Lexi when they heard her voice. Since Sabrina left, Lexi was the first to fawn
over Joanna, and all of them didn’t want to offend her.
Whitney frowned, and as if she found it amusing, she asked, “There’s no one here. Why can’t I have this seat?”
“Because I am going to move here. Do you have any issues with it?” Lexi asked.
“I have.” Whitney stood up. Squaring off her gaze with Lexi’s, she continued, “Didn’t your mom teach you to be
polite? You’re so mean with your words, as if you’ve just eaten some explosives. Does everyone in the world have
to do as you please?”
Whitney was never a submissive lady. She was straightforward and refused to beat around the bush.
Lexi was extremely displeased after being reprimanded. She had just been given authority by Joanna and was still in
the limelight, but now, she was being scolded before everyone. Her expression turned grim and while she glared
sternly at Whitney, she said, “You’re just a new assistant. Who gave you the authority to shout at me?”
“Ha,” Whitney sniggered. With her hands on her waist, she retaliated, “You’re the one who started the nonsense.”
“What did you say?” Lexi’s expression changed.
She intended to move over here after Sabrina left, but to her surprise, there was someone unknown sitting here
before she could do so.
After knowing that she was just a new assistant, Lexi thought that she had nothing to fear, and that she could use
this chance to establish her authority over everyone else in the Design Department.
However, never did she expect that the person in front of her had such a sharp tongue, making her the one being
laughed at.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I can let you have the seat if you don’t go insane and talk politely. But given your attitude now, I’m not going to do
so!” Whitney said righteously.
When Lexi heard that, her face paled with rage. After all, Whitney had completely humiliated her, and the worst of
all was that she was disgraced before everyone else in the office.
If she let it go like this, she would be looked down upon by everyone in the future.
Gripping her hands, she slapped her palm on the table and said loudly, “You’re a new assistant, but with such
attitude of yours, you’re fired! Get out immediately!”
Whitney, of course, wouldn’t accept defeat. “Well, you don’t have the right to chase me away,” she laughed and
said.
Lexi laughed upon hearing what she said. She worked for Joanna, and Joanna had the final say on whether this new
assistant could stay. Hence, she could just say a few words to Joanna and this new assistant would definitely be
sacked.
Seeing that the situation seemed to get out of hand and the atmosphere was tense, Scarlett immediately went to
get Nicole.
