Seeing her, the people who had been talking stiffened and sat up, glancing at her instinctively.

Rebecca ignored them completely. The lounge was silent except for the gentle hum of the coffee machine.

Rebecca nodded coolly.

Lisa got nervous, feeling a little guilty. “Do you want to join us? You’ve been working all morning. You must be exhausted.”

Ella said bluntly, “No. If she doesn’t get back quickly, her team will think she’s slacking and using her connections to get away with it.”

“Exactly. We’ll make sure everyone knows the truth.”

“Don’t worry. We’ve got your back.”

Rebecca hadn’t intended to dwell on their earlier words; she had planned to make her coffee and leave. However, she was surprised by how shameless they were.
