Chapter 1201 At that moment, Romeo's cell phone buzzed. He glanced at it and told the girl next to him, "Excuse me, | need to take this call" “Sure.” As Romeo walked away, everyone turned their attention back to Arabella, bornbarding her with questions.

“Mr. McMillian, how did you meet Mr. McMillian?" “How did you manage to win over such a cold-hearted man like Mr. McMillian?" “Can you share stips with us? | have a crush on a guy too, but he seems unattainable." “Yeah, teach us, please." In the corner of the design department, two girls sat quietly, one with long hair and the other with short.

They didn't join the crowd around Arabella, but instead watched the commotion from a distance.

The long-haired girl twisted a pen in her fingers, her eyes coldly gazing at Arabella, who was the center of attention.

“That woman is no simple matter. | heard she forced Irene, the HR director, to resign, caused the vice president to be fired, and even turned Mr. McMillian's office upside down, causing a commotion in the entire company.

And Ms. Maria, who had connections with Mr. McMillian, also got fired." The short-haired girl gasped, disbelief etched on her face. She whispered, “No way! Don't the Paisley and the McMillian families have a long history of cooperation? Could it be that this woman got jealous of Ms. Maria's relationship with Mr. McMillian, hence the office chaos and getting Ms. Maria fired?" The long-haired girl harbored similar suspicions, so her gaze toward Arabella was even more disdainful.

Just because she's young and pretty.

“She's getting ahead of herself just because she has Mr. MeMillian's support.” The long-haired girl continued to twist her pen, commenting indifferently, “Anyway, when Ms. Maria was leaving, she didn't look pleased. It seemed like she was quite upset." "This woman seems quite terrifying." The short-haired girl glanced at Arabella, suddenly finding the beautiful exterior hiding a venomous character.

“Ms. Maria was just praised by Mr. McMillian last week, and so was Irene. She was just promoted to HR director yesterday, and today she's fired. Surely, this wornan felt threatened by their capabilities and beauty, and thus eliminated them. We shouldn't be praising such a hypocritical woman." As the long-haired girl finished speaking, she suddenly got up and walked towards Arabella.

The clicking of her high heels echoed rhythmically, growing closer to her target.

“Mr. McMillian just said that if we have any questions about design, we can consult you." When addressing Arabella, the long-haired girl was not respectful enough.

Arabella looked up, sensing the hostility in the long-haired girl's eyes. Was this another admirer of Romeo? The dozen or so employees surrounding Arabella noticed the challenge in the long-haired girl's eyes, and they couldn't help but whisper.

"Sheila, what are you doing? Mr. McMillian is still here!" “This is Mrs. McMillian, our guest. Don't bother her with minor design issues." "Mrs. McMillian is just here to observe." "You should go back to your workstation." People were afraid that Arabella might be clueless about design, or that she might not be competent enough and end up embarrassed.

After all, Sheila was exceptionally talented in design and had won several international design awards in recent years.

She was an undeniable design prodigy.

And now, this prodigy was asking for advice from Arabella, a young woman.

“| happen to have a few new designs that I've just finished. Mrs. McMillian, could you take a look and tellif there's anything that needs to be improved?" When people saw Sheila's attitude, they knew she wasn't really looking for advice, but rather, she was trying to put Arabella in a tricky situation.
