Chapter 44 - Jealousy Is Not a Sin

Isabella’s POV

In the weeks following that fateful introductory meeting, I noticed only one notable change in my department.

Well... two, to be exact.

The first was that Mr. Klein started showing up at the office much more than he had in the first few weeks. It mainly was to nip at my heels and undermine my work, though. If he'd been getting some work done while he was torturing me, I wouldn't have minded his frequent appearances so much.

The second change was that my coworkers seemed to have developed a passion for something else.

Hating me.

Previously, they had ignored my appearance as effectively as they ignored their work, but they now took special care to make me aware of their feelings. I suspected everyone's sudden attitude change had to do with Mr. Klein. He'd made several off-handed comments about how I got into the company and how my meddling would only result in trouble for the other employees.
