Chapter 26 Cornering The Newbie

The other interns working with Christina were amazed when they saw her designs, but their surprise quickly gave way to jealousy.

One of the designers went over to look out of curiosity and found Christina’s work to be rather creative. and appealing to young women, albeit not quite the company’s style.

Still, that level of design was above the mark for a rookie.

Standing in the crowd, Christina did not receive any applause. Instead, what she got were meaningful looks from a few people. It went without saying that having Gina stick her design up on the noticeboard was an invitation to disaster, for the shot always hit the bird that poked its head out first.

Because of what happened, all the interns who joined the company with Christina took her as their biggest competitor.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel had unprecedentedly left Christina uninterrupted for the first week since she started the internship so she could focus on work, given her hectic schedule.

On one occasion, Christina was almost running late for work and would have to clock in late if she missed the elevator, so she rushed toward the elevator, holding a carton of milk she had just bought.

“Wait up!”

Despite her cry, the female intern at the elevator door quickly pressed the “close” button, leaving Christina behind.

As the doors closed between them, Christina’s steps slowed down in disappointment. She felt ostracized when she noticed the smug expression on the woman’s face.

The man who opened the door had a closely-cut suit that fit his tall build perfectly and exuded a regal aura that bespelled Christina momentarily.

Still, the latter quickly snapped back to her senses and ran into the elevator as though a ray of light had shone down into the darkness for her. Thank you!”
