<strong>Chapter 1500: 1500. Elly Campbell really looks down on people with a snobbish eye.</strong>
Campbell Group—
“CEO Campbell, there’s ady downstairs with thest name Taylor saying she’s a friend you know from Anta Baker’s side. She wants to see you.”
Elly Campbell was flipping through the documents in her hand when she heard the secretarye in to deliver the message. She raised an eyebrow and looked up from the file.
Ady Taylor, acquainted with Anta Baker?
No need to ask—it’s obvious who it is.
Looks like Sophia Taylor still hasn’t given up, daring toe knocking.
Judging by this, she’s probably left Anta Baker and is looking for a job now?
“Did she book an appointment?”
“Well…”
Of course, she hadn’t made an appointment. It was just that the people downstairs heard she was from Anta Baker’s circle, and since the CEO had been particrly attentive to matters rted to Anta Baker recently, they didn’t dare overlook her.
But judging by CEO Campbell’s expression now, it was clear that the so-called friend downstairs wasn’t even worth a second thought.
Ha, yet another shameless attempt to climb the socialdder.
“Next time, don’t bother with people trying to exploit connections like this.”
“Understood, CEO Campbell.”
The secretary left and made a reply call to the reception desk downstairs.
After putting down the phone, the receptionist politely but distantly said to the well-dressed Sophia Taylor, whose eyes were filled with hopeful anticipation:
“Sorry, without an appointment, you cannot meet CEO Campbell.”
Hearing the receptionist’s cold tone, Sophia Taylor felt a sinking sensation in her heart. Especially imagining Elly Campbell acting so haughty made her all the more resentful.
After all, they had known each other once, and had even taught sses together. How could it require an appointment just to meet her?
What kind of person does that?
Anger churned within Sophia Taylor, but recalling how she’d hit a wall at several prestigious schools while trying to teach these past few days, she forcefully suppressed her frustration.
She offered the receptionist an appropriate smile and said:
“Could it be that the upstairs secretary made a mistake? Could you please check again? I really am good friends with your CEO Campbell.”
The receptionist recalled the feedback from the upstairs secretary and knew this person was deliberately trying to get close to CEO Campbell.
Fortunately, CEO Campbell wasn’t petty, so she hadn’t been held ountable for it. There was no way the receptionist would risk anything further on her behalf.
The previously polite smile on her face now turned cold. “Sorry, without an appointment, you cannot meet CEO Campbell.”
Sophia Taylor’s face darkened again, and her earlier gentleness could no longer be maintained.
She persisted, saying a few more things, but the receptionist remained unmoved, and Sophia Taylor was so infuriated she almost started shouting.
It was at that moment Lily Jones walked in from outside. The receptionist ignored Sophia Taylor entirely and eagerly greeted Lily Jones, saying, “Miss Jones.”
“Is Elly upstairs?”
“CEO Campbell is upstairs.”
“Alright, I’m going up to find her.”
As Lily Jones went upstairs, her gaze meaningfully lingered on Sophia Taylor for a moment.
After sending Lily Jones on her way, the receptionist returned to her post. Sophia Taylor had just overheard Lily’s tone, which obviously indicated she hadn’t booked an appointment, yet she’d gone directly upstairs to see Elly nheless. Why was Sophia Taylor required to make an appointment?
That face of Lily Jones’s looked somewhat familiar to her, but she couldn’t quite ce where she’d seen her before.
Judging by her appearance, though, it was clear she came from a wealthy family. Comparing herself to her…
Heh!
This office imed no one could meet Elly Campbell without an appointment, but a rich girl shows up and skips the line entirely?
Elly Campbell truly was a snob!
Suppressing her indignation, Sophia couldn’t hold back anymore and said to the receptionist:
“Why didn’t that person just now need an appointment? Are you looking down on me?”
