“There’s none!” The one who disclosed the information smiled. “Said she’s a distant niece of a friend of a friend of

Ms. Thompson’s. Well, you can barely call that a connection, basically!”

Lena stood at the doorway, and her lips pursed lightly.

She knew Lina had said that to protect her, to keep her low-key so she would not become a target the moment she

stepped into the workplace. Staying discreet would also give her more time to focus on studying and learning so

she could make a remarkable debut in the future.

It was just that people often tended to put those in power on a pedestal or belittle ones deemed to have no value,

especially the hypocritical individuals in the sales department.

If one had a background, they would be respectful and polite but also backstab them—just like Jacquelin.

Rumor had it that she was the trusted aide of a high-ranking executive on the board. Although she seemed

arrogant and people were nice to her superficially, she was the go-to source for a few sales elites, who intercepted

a considerable share of her resources.

If one had no background, everyone could step on them—just like Lena.

When that person said she could barely be connected to Lina, a burst of quiet laughter erupted in the break room.

Then, people started to make malicious remarks.

“When she first came in, I only noticed that she looked good and thought she was a big shot. Turns out she’s like a

mute and sat there motionless all morning!”

“And she’s dressed so plainly, in all black! Anyone who doesn’t know might think her family died!”

“Hey, don’t be so mean…”

“It’s not like she can hear us saying this here… Hey, don’t you think she seems quite mature for her age? Maybe we

should call her ‘Granny Harding’ from now on! Hahaha!”

Lena’s gaze was cold.

In truth, she did not care what others said. She had heard much worse before. She just found this group of people

annoying.

The Thompson Group was vast, and there were bound to be people with bad intentions. How could Lina manage

the company with lazy and dishonest employees around?

Nicholas had painstakingly established the company. It couldn’t be allowed to crumble because of a few pests!

Lena bit her lip as she sneaked a glance inside and left quietly.

Those in the break room were fervently discussing, except for Jacquelin, who did not quite share their views.

With her understanding of the executives, she did not believe they would be so idle as to recruit someone

completely without connection. Lina, in particular, would not be bothered with unrelated matters. It was not that

Lena did not have a background—she just did not flaunt it.

The more she avoided attention, the bigger the problem was!

Jacquelin suddenly felt a chill down her spine. She composed herself and cleared her throat forcefully.

“Alright, we’ve been out here for quite a while. Let’s hurry back! If Jade comes looking for you, let’s see how you

handle it!”

“Jackie, what do you think of that Lena?”

“What’s there to think of her?” Jacquelin narrowed her eyes. “Dogs that bite don’t bark. Watch and see!”

Lena did not pay much attention to what those people were saying. She returned to her workstation and continued

to bury herself in her research.

After work, she voluntarily stayed behind, engrossed in studying the materials. When she looked up, she realized it

was already dark outside.

She hurried downstairs and suddenly spotted the handsome face across the street.

“Hey!” Chris hurried over as soon as he saw her. “How was your first day of work?”
