The urgent alarm clock pulled Paulette out of her dream. She opened her eyes and felt like the ceiling was a bit unreal.
I sat there for a while before finally getting up.
Looked at the time, it was seven o’clock.
Today was the first day of work.
Paulette gritted her teeth, mustered up the courage, and pulled back the covers to get out of bed!
After getting ready and going downstairs, Jeremiah had already made breakfast. Still feeling the dream she had last night, she inexplicably found him quite familiar and greeted him with a wave, “Morning.”
Jeremiah raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, “Early.”
He pushed the milk towards her, “It’s hot, drink it while it’s hot.”
་་
Just like that, the smile on Paulette’s face fell down successfully, “Don’t you know I hate drinking milk the most?”
“Added sugar.”
“Ah, okay.”
Paulette’s expression brightened again, she picked up the milk and drank half of it, then picked up a fork to eat breakfast.
She thought about the previous invitation to dinner and asked, “Do you

have plans tonight?”
“Huh?”
“Let’s eat something delicious.”
Paulette picked up her cup and raised it to him as if toasting, “You’ve helped me so much, I gotta thank you properly.”
Jeremiah didn’t know which of her words made him laugh, and he said
with a smile, “Ms. Davenport has an appointment, so I have to put everything aside. Your matter is the most important.”
Any woman would be happy to hear such words.
Paulette was no exception.
After finishing breakfast, she smiled and said goodbye to Jeremiah.
I drove to the company for half an hour.

Although Paulette interviewed directly with Lynda, her immediate boss was not Lynda.
After completing the procedures at the HR department, Lauren Mueller from the HR department led her to the designer’s workstation. “You are the first one to become an independent designer as soon as you join the company. You are so young, the future is limitless for you. Keep it up.”
Paulette was surprised, “The first one?”
“Yeah, other fresh graduates usually start as design assistants.”
In no time, we were already at the design team. Lauren introduced me to the team leader, Kaylyn Gentry, who is a seasoned jewelry designer the company brought back from overseas.

Paulette looked at the woman standing not far away, walked over, smiled, and bowed.
“Ms. Gentry, I’m Paulette. Nice to meet you all in the future.”
Kaylyn glanced up and down at her, like she was sizing up a product, before finally nodding and saying, “Your workstation is over there, no need for instructions, just do your job well.”
After speaking, she glanced around at the people watching the show and said, “What are you looking at? The work is all done?”
Everyone dispersed disappointedly, leaving only Paulette and Kaylyn in the blink of an eye.
Kaylyn was wearing a black professional outfit, and her high heels added ten centimeters to her height, making her proportions perfect. Standing in front of Paulette in flat shoes, she couldn’t help but feel a little intimidating.
She took two steps forward slowly, and asked in a low voice without expression, “Are you close with Ms. Palmer?”
Paulette shook her head, “We met for the first time at the interview.”
Kaylyn raised her red lips, her eyes showing a mix of emotions that were hard to read, “There’s no best. In our company, those things don’t matter. What’s most important is being able to come up with good work. I heard you recently won an international award, you’re really talented. Keep up the good work.”
After saying this, she turned to a colleague and said, “Cecilia, I’ll leave Paulette to you for now, help her get familiar with everything.”
Cecilia Gomez immediately got up, “Okay, Ms. Gentry.”

Kaylyn gave Paulette a glance and then went back to the office.
Paulette frowned slightly, she didn’t feel much kindness in Kaylyn’s words just now.
At that moment, Cecilia came over and greeted her, saying, “Hi, I’m Cecilia.”
“Paulette.”
Paulette looked away and politely smiled at Cecilia, “I might need a couple of days to get familiar, so I might bother you.”

“No big deal,” Cecilia raised her eyebrows at her and glanced towards the team leader’s office, “But it looks like Ms. Gentry doesn’t really like you, so be prepared.”
Paulette didn’t really care about this kind of thing. As long as she did her own thing, even if someone wanted to pick a fight, they wouldn’t find fault with her, right?
However, she underestimated a company’s gossip ability.
It’s like they say, where there are women, there is a stage.
In just two days, rumors about Paulette were spreading in every corner of the company.
“Did you hear? The new girl Paulette, she came in through the back door.”
