"Sir, sending flowers is nice and all, but ma'am isn't refusing them without reason. You really should try making these handmade roses. They obviously take a lot of effort, and that effort is a clear sign of your affection.

Guess I wasn't thinking straight. I'll just head out." After saying that, Cedric turned and quickly walked away.
But then, out of nowhere, something Cedric had said struck a chord with Remington, and he suddenly spoke up. "Have Una stay late tonight for sovertime." Una, of course, was the one who knew how to make those handmade roses.
Cedric had been grasping at straws when Remington rejected his idea, thinking he'd been a bit ridiculous.
To his surprise, Remington actually took his suggestion. He couldn't quite believe it.
Stunned for a moment, Cedric quickly turned back and said, "Of course, sir. I'll make the arrangements." Of course, he had to make sure Una's overtwouldn't be noticed by other employees.

Before she even entered, she heard Snow and her gang chatting.
"The project department hasn't been hiring lately. She must have gotten in through connections. And with the Madden surname, she might really be shidden heiress." "How could that be? If she were really an heiress, why would she bother with our little project department? I checked her out; her clothes aren't from any luxury brands. Plus, Mrs. Laura is clearly giving her the cold shoulder. If she's related to the Madden family, she must be the kind clinging to richer relatives." "With the way she looks, who knows how many surgeries she's had. A woman that harsh on herself wouldn't be 'content with just being a low-level employee.

Upon entering, she closed the door behind her and walked up to Laura's desk, Laurelooked up, offering a warm smile. "What's up? Any problems?" Judging by Laura's demeanor, it didn't seem like she was singling out Lizetta.
Lizetta returned the smile, "Manager, I think I've settled in nicely. I was wondering what my tasks will be moving forward. Or if there'scany project that needs an extra hand." en.swhovels.net
