Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Jilted Bride 164

Ophelia nodded slightly and said, "Then I think you're not suited for your position."

"What do you mean? What gives you the right to say that?" Cecilia asked, feeling amused. She approached Ophelia and noticed the light pink scar on her forehead, and immediately showed a look of understanding. Cecilia mused, "The scar on her forehead was probably from failing to get Mr. Sinclair's attention.'

Cecilia stated, "If I'm not the right fit for this role, then who is? You're merely a pawn, brought in by the Carnegies to forge a connection with the Sinclair Group.

"Do you genuinely believe that acquiring the title of Mrs. Sinclair makes you superior? Ms. Spencer, don't let your head swell. I've had the benefit of studying abroad, and I am more qualified for this position than you are." Cecilia raised her chin, her sharp voice immediately attracting the attention of several staff members who had just come out of the pantry.

Someone asked, "Cecilia, who made you so upset?"

Another one said, "Well, Cecilia, take it easy."

The two staff members put down their cups and stood beside Cecilia,

one on each side.

Their gaze fell upon Ophelia across the room. She was dressed casually but attractive, with a decent sense of style.

However, her attire was unremarkable, devoid of any recognizable brand names, and she wasn't carrying a handbag. The staff members surmised that she was likely an impoverished college student attending an interview, who had inadvertently offended Cecilia. One of the staff members remarked, "Honestly, these days it seems like anyone can interview for a designer position at Glimmer Jewelry. Cecilia, don't waste your energy getting mad at someone like that. It's not worth it."

The other staff member remained silent, scrutinizing Ophelia. She felt Ophelia seemed somewhat familiar.

However, Ophelia looked at Cecilia calmly.

Ophelia then said, "Firstly, as the HR Director, you haven't even looked over the interviewee's details. Secondly, even if you weren't in the country before, you should have acquainted yourself with local designers. "You're not concerned about embarrassing your father by getting this position through connections, are you?"

"What are you talking about? I didn't use any connections to get this job! Who the hell are you?" Cecilia retorted, her fists clenched, and anger simmered inside her.

Just then, Lily came over with the company head, Calvin Sampson.

The staff members greeted Calvin, "Hi, Mr. Sampson."

Upon seeing Calvin, Cecilia held herself back from striking Ophelia.

Calvin, in his thirties, had his hair slicked back. His deep blue suit exuded quality, perfectly portraying the image of a company executive,

Calvin said to Ophelia, "Hello, Ms. Spencer. I was busy handling something and couldn't personally come downstairs to meet you. My apologies."

Cecilia was taken aback, wondering, 'Why is Mr. Sampson being so polite to her?'
