Chapter 24 I'll Learn From My Colleagues

Coen's expression darkened. He was clearly furious at Linsey's outburst. After making his stance clear, he turned to Cynthia and said coolly, "Cynthia has competed in numerous design contests and has an impressive portfolio. She's far more experienced than you. Instead of wasting time arguing with your superior, you'd be better off learning from your colleagues as you should."

Linsey parted her lips to respond, but before she could get a word out, Coen's voice turned sharp.

"Linsey, if you insist on challenging my decisions, I'll have to seriously reconsider whether you're even fit to pass the three -month probation period."

The warning struck hard, forcing Linsey into silence.

Her probation depended entirely on Coen's evaluation-if he decided she wasn't meeting expectations, she would be out before she even had a chance to prove herself.

She had worked too hard to land this job at CR Corporation. There was no way she would let herself be forced out so easily.

Suppressing her frustration, she forced herself to compromise. "Understood. I'll learn from my colleagues. And I trust you'll assign me appropriate tasks soon."

Coen ignored the latter half of her statement. With a cold scoff, he stormed out of the meeting room.

The remaining employees exchanged uneasy glances, unsure whether they should say something to Linsey.
