Chapter 111

 111:
“Enough,” Coen interjected, his tone final. He was clearly disinterested in pursuing Cynthia’s baseless claims.
“The deal is sealed. That’s what matters.”
He regarded Linsey with evident satisfaction.
“You’ve done an excellent job. It’s been ages since we’ve had Mrs. Blakely on board. Dedicate yourself fully to this project and showcase our team’s skills.”
Linsey nodded, her response crisp.
“Understood, Coen.”
After a brief pause, she added, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll head back to my desk and start working on the designs.”
Coen’s expression sobered.
“Good. Focus on your designs, but remember to take breaks. I’ll arrange for some afternoon tea. If this project succeeds, you’ll be our star designer—and you might even complete your probation early.”
“Thank you, Coen. I’ll get to work now.”
Linsey collected Anthea’s contract and documents before turning to head back to her desk.
Coen watched her walk away, his mind already filled with visions of the accolades he would receive if the deal went through.
He was completely oblivious to Cynthia’s rigid expression.
Cynthia clenched her fists, her whole body quivering with barely contained rage.
A wave of panic washed over her.

Linsey had secured Anthea’s approval.
She had sorely underestimated Linsey.
It was well-known within CR Corporation that Anthea had a special connection with the company’s enigmatic founder. This had added to Coen’s urgency to secure her project.
Previous designers had faced harsh rejections from Anthea, with some even resigning after their failures.
Yet Linsey had triumphed against all odds.
How was this even possible?
Cynthia couldn’t bring herself to accept the fact that Linsey had sealed a deal with Anthea.
If Linsey used Anthea to advance further in her career, she would steal Cynthia’s spotlight in the department.
That simply would not do.
A determined spark ignited in Cynthia’s eyes as she quietly resolved to herself.
She had to tank this deal.
On the other side, Linsey’s day was consumed at her desk, where she was intently preparing design proposals to meet Anthea’s stringent criteria.
Typically, a designer would create various options after understanding a client’s preferences, offering them a range of choices.
This often led to new ideas or additional requests from the client, requiring flexibility and adaptability from the designer.
Given the substantial compensation offered by Anthea, it was clear why she demanded nothing short of excellence.
Linsey was meticulous, focusing on every detail to guarantee the success of the project.
Once she delved into her work, Linsey lost track of time.
