Chapter 11 Photographic Memory

After Stella stormed off, I got to work.

Becoming an Alpha had enhanced all my senses. My memory, which was already impressive, now had the ability to retain everything I saw and read. After quickly scanning the contents of the files, I understood the data I needed to input and began the task.

The process was tedious, but it posed little challenge to me. I got the hang of it quickly, and my speed only increased as I went.

The rapid tapping of my fingers on the keyboard soon caught the attention of some of my colleagues. Their hushed voices reached my ears, and I couldn’t help but overhear their comments.

“Did you see how fast she’s typing? I thought I was quick, but I can’t keep up with her.”

“I thought someone from a rural area like her wouldn’t know much about office work, but she’s actually pretty efficient.”

“Yeah, I noticed. She’s pretty organized too. I heard she’s engaged to Mr. Holbrook. If Alpha Richard approves of it, she must have some value.”

“So what? Did you notice that Mr. Holbrook doesn’t even pay attention to her? She’ll be gone one day. She made an enemy of Ms. Dixon and that was why she’s been saddled with all this work today. I bet it’s just the beginning. Her days here won’t be easy.”

“Whatever. It’s none of our business. We shouldn’t get involved and bring trouble upon ourselves.”

Their whispers were like white noise to me as I focused on my task.
