When the Boss’ Lady Became His Sister-in-law

Chapter 100

At the company Cafeteria.

It was noon, and no one called Kristin out for lunch.

She was still not familiar with the company.

Usually, the HR manager should’ve set someone up to show Kristin the ropes, but Lisa didn’t think Kristin would stick around long, so she decided to play hardball

“Huh? Why aren’t you out grabbing a bite?” A kind–hearted female employee popped the question from outside the door.

Kristin glanced at the clock and whispered, “Hi, where’s the cafeteria?”

The employee peered at her watch. “At this hour, you’re probably out of luck for food. Didn’t the HR staller give you the grand tour?”

Kristin shook her head.

“Let me show you around then.” The woman was about to take Kristin to the cafeteria when another employee deliberately pulled her aside.

“Why bother with her? Did you know she got in through the back door? I heard she’s just got a high school diploma and a rap sheet. Keep your distance. Rumor has it she’s a pilferer.”

The good–hearted employee turned around, shocked. How could she land a job at the FitzGerald Group with a high school diploma?

“Sorry, but something just came up that I need to handle right away. You might want to ask someone else for help,” the kind employee excused herself and bolted.

Kristin lowered her gaze to her fidgeting fingers, having foreseen this.

Walking down the hall, even the cleaning lady gave her the cold shoulder. Everyone steered clear of her, leaving a trail of whispers in her wake.

Kristin had a hunch. That was the welcome wagon, the FitzGerald style.

“Excuse me, could you tell me… where the cafeteria is? Kristin spotted the janitor near the restroom and asked tentatively.

The cleaning lady scrubbed the floor with gusto as if Kristin were invisible.

Kristin stepped back, bowed her head in slight defeat, and kept silent.

After wandering the company alone and finally finding the cafeteria, the staff had cleaned up. “You’re new here?” The cafeteria employee saw Kristin standing at the door and whispered.

Kristin nodded.

“Lunchtime is at 11:40 a.m., and it’s almost time to clock back in. Come earlier next time,” the
