Upon hearing this, the faces of everyone from the Design Department that came to greet her stiffened simultaneously.
The woman who had been pulling Charlotte Thompson along laughed, glancing at her with a meaningful look that said, "Oh my, designer Charlotte, pretending in front of all us familiar faces."
Once she finished speaking, Charlotte was confused. The look in her eyes expressed doubt. She looked strangely at the woman who was speaking: "What am I pretending?"
Why was she speaking in such nonsensical terms?
Charlotte glanced around the Design Department, almost everyone had gathered. Those standing towards the back were enthusiastically scrolling through their phones and seemed to be discussing something. They whispered a few words to the person next to them, then casually glanced at her. They all had the same expression in their eyes.
Curiosity and suspicion.
