Chapter 405

Even so, Emily was pretty happy because she knew she was getting closer and closer to her dreams.

Her superior was Rachel, 35 years old, unmarried, no boyfriend, and a woman who was quite serious

and reserved.

On Emily’s first day, Rachel seemed to have something against her, ordering her to do all sorts of

errands like photocopying, getting coffee, and picking up deliveries… Basically, if Emily seemed idle,

Rachel would definitely find something for her to do.

Seeing this, others started bossing Emily around too.

Emily did every task well, without any complaints. This made Rachel unable to scold her, but she didn’t

treat Emily any better either.

One afternoon, when everyone was having afternoon tea in the pantry, a male colleague saw Emily still

busy and called out to her, “Emily, come over and take a break.”

“Coming!” Emily just finished what she was doing and greeted everyone as she walked over.

The male colleague pushed a piece of mousse cake towards Emily and said with a smile, “This is for

you, enjoy!”

“Thank you!” Emily expressed her gratitude.

Rachel and another female colleague were chatting over coffee, glancing at Emily with a jealous tone,

“It’s rare to see you being so considerate. I guess you’re fawning over the pretty girl!”

Everyone in the office knew that Zach had a crush on Rachel, but she had a somewhat ambiguous

attitude, so their relationship remained undefined.

Embarrassed, Zach said, “She’s a newbie, of course we need to take care of her!”

“I didn’t know you could be so nice to women!” Rachel snorted coldly and left with her coffee to her

workstation.

Everyone exchanged glances, and Emily pushed the cake away, “I’m sorry, I better get back to work!”

Zach laughed and said, “Don’t worry about it, Rachel’s like that sometimes. Don’t take it to heart!”

Emily nodded and went back to work.

Close to the end of the day, Rachel suddenly approached Emily with a stack of data reports, “Check

these through, I need them for a meeting tomorrow morning!”

Surprised and taken aback, Emily calculated that it would take her until midnight to go through these

reports.

“You have to complete them and email them to me before work tomorrow. I’ll need them as soon as I

arrive, and if anything goes wrong, it’s on you!” With that said, Rachel packed up and left.

Emily sighed, knowing that Rachel was deliberately making things difficult for her, probably because of

Zach!

With no other choice, even though she knew Rachel did it on purpose, she could only do as Rachel

asked!

She sat down, turned on her computer, and began checking the data report. As others passed by, they

simply cast her a meaningful and sympathetic glance.

The office gradually emptied, until Emily was the only one left, and it was already getting dark outside.

From the conference room next door, Charlie awoke from a nap he took that afternoon to find that it

was already dark outside.

He’d attended a meeting with some higher-ups in the morning, with someone sneezing due to a cold.

He didn’t pay much attention then, but after a noontime drinking session followed by an afternoon

meeting on the 30th floor, he began to feel unwell lightheaded and in a daze.

Thinking he’d had too much to drink, he let others take charge of the meeting and went to the resting

area behind the conference room to sleep.

Now as he woke up, with a sore throat and stuffy nose, he realized something was wrong.

Grabbing his suit jacket, he started heading out and noticed that the light in the design department was

still on.

Initially, he thought someone had forgotten to turn off the light when leaving, but as he approached, he

saw

“You should call it a day, no need to push yourself this hard!” Charlie leaned against the door and said

with a nasal tone.

Emily thought it was the security patrol, so without looking up, she replied, “Sorry, I’ll just stay a little bit

longer and then I’ll
