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."
