From Ruin She Rose novel Chapter 345

Chapter 345

Word got around that Emily had become vice president of the Bennett Group, and almost everyone in Cloudridge knew it. Whether they meant well or not, many kept a close eye on the project she held.

Emily understood this well, but instead of pulling back, she acted louder and bolder, like she wanted everyone’s eyes on her.

Everyone thought she was just new and anxious to prove herself since she started as vice president right away, which made her act so showy.

No one believed Emily, clueless as she was, could manage such a big project well without Andrew’s help. They were all waiting to see her screw up.

When word spread that Lydia had joined the project team, even more folks came to watch. Andrew also kept an eye on Emily, worried she would be mean to Lydia.

Despite all this, Lydia showed up to work on time every day in a good mood. She had given up the rich heiress life to be an office worker. She wasn’t crazy; she was targeting Emily.

If it was something that would annoy Emily, Lydia was all for it.

There was another reason for Lydia’s good mood. Ever since Cale went missing, she had been nervous for a month, scared that rumors about her would come out.

After doing these things, she would sneak peeks at Emily, like she was waiting for a reaction. However, Emily stayed calm, like she was watching some joke.

Emily did see her as a joke. She knew Lydia was doing all this on purpose, with Andrew’s backing, but she didn’t care at all. In fact, she kind of liked it.

She wished the situation would escalate, drawing everyone’s attention onto herself, and only then could Austin’s plan proceed smoothly.

Yet, Emily’s mind was fixed on something else.

Though Lydia’s mistakes seemed minor, it was enough to make coworkers hate her. Strangely, every one of them forgave her after she apologized with a tearful look.

They didn’t forgive her just because she was from the Bennett family, but because they truly believed that she was sorry. The one thing someone hated most was dumb teammates. Even the nicest people snapped when they kept getting dragged down again and again.

However, Lydia didn’t actually do anything. Just saying sorry with a tearful look was enough to get away with it. That was
