From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent

Chapter 144

Bracing herself against the privileges of tenure and a passing rapport with the manager, Una Immediately tattled, not giving Dinah a chance to speak.

Of course, the manager wasn’t about to reprimand a long–standing employee for the sake of a newbie, so he said, “Dinah, this isn’t your concern anymore.

A glint of triumph flickered in Una’s eyes as she smiled and said, “Right away, boss.”

Dinah felt deeply wronged. As a newcomer desperate to keep her job, she was powerless. Anthea looked up, her eyes narrowing, “Manager Conn, right? This isn’t how you treat people, is it?

Dinah was stunned, looking up at Anthea with immense gratitude in her eyes.
