Revenge is best served cold

Chapter 183 Making a Living

I was confused. Wasn't my identity supposed to be confidential?

I hesitated before testing the waters and sent a message back. "Why did Harvey say I'm a nepotism hire?"

Heather took a long time before finally replying. "I'm not sure. He just told everyone you were a nepotism hire, but we think he's just trying to smear you. Rumor has it he wanted to get his wife into the company, but HR hired you instead. He's probably mad about that."

I went silent. I was tempted to tell her that it wasn't just about that. Harvey had plenty of reasons to hold a grudge against me.

Noticing my lack of response, Heather quickly sent another message.

"Don't stress too much. As long as you keep your head and suck up to him a little, you can survive. That's just how things work around here."

I stared at my phone, feeling a wave of irony wash over me. He was just a team leader, yet he acted like a tyrant.

I glanced at Heather and couldn't help but ask the question in my mind. "Have none of you ever fought back?"

She was indifferent, looking as if she had long accepted reality.

"It's useless. He has too many tricks up his sleeve, and no one can beat him. The company pays well enough, so we just put up with it. Just consider it the price to pay to make a living.
