Chapter 177: It Is Me

As Aurora completed her onboarding process, word had already spread about her recent confrontation with Alison.

Ever since Alison got involved with Paul, she seemed overjoyed and started to dismiss everyone else, bullying the junior staff who dared not speak up. Offending her meant risking their job, as she could easily sway Paul with whispers in his ear.

Today, Aurora retaliated fiercely against her, and people especially enjoyed the moment Alison fell sprawling, which became a delightful topic among the employees. Those usually oppressed by her laughed and joked, "You all should have seen her fall; it was a complete disaster."

"Indeed, I still could not forget her black lace," another chimed in eagerly, gossiping further.

"She must be good in ways we know, no wonder the vice-president likes her so much," remarked another, indicating more salacious thoughts.

The workplace was like a battlefield, where even the usually oppressed found fodder for gossip in others' missteps.

"Absolutely, the way she struts is just nauseating," one commented.

"Men do seem to prefer that sort, no doubt," the group continued, drifting from one topic to another.

"By the way, who was that woman who dared to confront Alison today? We've never seen her before," the conversation turned to Aurora.

"True, I've never seen her either. She looks young but has a presence, definitely the elite type, a stark contrast to that floozy."

"Speaking of which, did you hear that HR is getting a new manager parachuted in today?" another woman initiated yet another topic.

"Parachuted? What do you mean?" Everyone gathered around, eager for more gossip. "The new manager isn't promoted from within but just returned from the U. S., supposedly younger than all of us."
