Chapter 205
A colleague tapped her shoulder.
She pointed not far away.
She lowered her voice.
"See that girl?"
"She's a new intern at the company."
"Not even probation period was over."
"Suddenly got promoted."
"What methods she used."
"I don't need to spell it out."
Anna Ross fell silent for a moment.
She turned her attention back to work.
Such things were common in the workplace.
Others had that ability.
Outsiders shouldn't judge.
She just wanted to investigate the data breach now.
Other matters were none of her business.
She focused on her computer screen.
Her peripheral vision caught a figure moving.
She didn't pay attention at first.
The shadow gradually approached.
She looked up.
It was the girl from earlier.
"Hello."
"My name is Chloe Lombardi."
"Just promoted from intern."
"We'll be colleagues from now on."
"Please guide me."
Chloe Lombardi greeted warmly.
Her eyes curved into crescents.
The colleague nearby moved away disdainfully.
Clearly looking down on her methods.
Anna smiled politely.
"Hello."
"Anna Ross."
Chloe Lombardi nodded with satisfaction.
"You seem older than me."
"I'll call you Sister Anna from now on."
"Okay." Anna responded softly.
Chloe Lombardi continued.
"My desk is in front of yours."
"I might bother you often."
"Hope you don't find me annoying."
Anna was slightly taken aback.
This girl was overly familiar.
She seemed easy to get along with.
But Anna felt something strange.
A sense of discomfort lingered.
Before she could speak.
The colleague cut in directly.
"She might not be older than you."
"You actually look older."
"How can you call her sister?"
Chloe Lombardi's face instantly darkened.
Anna signaled the colleague to stop.
She looked at Chloe Lombardi.
"We're all colleagues."
"No need for formalities."
Chloe Lombardi smiled slightly.
She turned and returned to her seat.
The colleague kept muttering.
"It's just the truth."
"Can't even let people say it."
Anna wanted to advise her to say less.
She suddenly found Chloe Lombardi's back familiar.
As if she had seen it somewhere before.
She tried hard to recall.
But couldn't remember no matter what.
Chloe Valentine walked over quickly.
She spoke directly.
"Executive Assistant Ross."
"Don't say I didn't warn you."
"The project is suspended because of you."
"Better solve the data breach quickly."
"Delaying the cooperation progress."
"Can you bear the responsibility?"
Anna withdrew her gaze.
She responded calmly.
"You don't need to worry about this."
"I will communicate with the client."
Chloe Lombardi turned curiously.
She greeted Chloe Valentine politely.
She asked with concern.
"What happened?"
"Can I help?"
Anna was somewhat surprised.
She was actually so enthusiastic.
But she couldn't help with this matter.
It was still a kind gesture.
She thanked softly.
"Thank you for your kindness."
"No need."
"This matter is very complicated."
She helplessly lowered her eyes.
Chloe Lombardi said regretfully.
"I see."
"Really sorry."
"Wanted to help you."
