Chapter 1201
At that moment, Romeo''s cell phone buzzed. He nced at it and told the girl next to him, "Excuse me,
I need to take this call"
“Sure."
As Romeo walked away, everyone turned their attention back to Arabe, 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 some tips with us? I 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 Arabe, but instead watched themotion from a distance.
The long-haired girl twisted a pen in her fingers, her eyes coldly gazing at Arabe, who was the center
of attention.
“That woman is no simple matter. I 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 amotion in the
entirepany.
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 rtionship with Mr. McMillian, hence the office chaos and getting Ms. Maria fired?"
The long-haired girl harbored simr suspicions, so her gaze toward Arabe 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,menting 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 nced at Arabe, suddenly finding the
beautiful exterior hiding a venomous character.
“Ms. Maria was just praised by Mr. McMillianst 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 Arabe.
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 Arabe, the long-haired girl was not respectful enough.
Arabe looked up, sensing the hostility in the long-haired girl''s eyes. Was this another admirer of
Romeo?
The dozen or so employees surrounding Arabe noticed the challenge in the long-haired girl''s eyes,
and they couldn''t help but whisper.
"She, 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 Arabe might be clueless about design, or that she might not bepetent
enough and end up embarrassed.
After all, She 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 Arabe, a young woman.
“I happen to have a few new designs that I''ve just finished. Mrs. McMillian, could you take a look and
tell me if there''s anything that needs to be improved?"
When people saw She''s attitude, they knew she wasn''t really looking for advice, but rather, she was
trying to put Arabe in a tricky situation.
