"I'd like to see who's causing trouble in my company!" My father stood in the center of the room, commanding authority.Garreth immediately approached Dad humbly."Sir, it's just a young lady who failed her internship. Her private life is a mess, and she almost cost the company millions by sabotaging her coworker. An uncultured person like her has no place in our company!""Uncultured?"Thinking he now had the CEO's support, Garreth grew even bolder as he dragged my name through the mud with smug confidence.Before Garreth could finish his sentence, a slap landed squarely on his cheek."Who gave you the gall to insult my daughter?"Garreth was left stunned, and the entire room, including Johannes and the other employees, was thrown into shocked silence."What? Isn't Tiffany Mr. Yarn's daughter?""S-Sir, you must be mistaken!" Garreth stammered, clutching his swollen cheek as his bewildered gaze darted between Tiffany and me.The next moment, Dad delivered a firm kick, sending
After I graduated, Dad decisively sent me straight to his company and gave me an entry-level position.The official reason? To "train my skills" and "strengthen my character".While I kept complaining, deep down, I secretly looked forward to gaining independence.However, on my very first day, I overheard colleagues whispering, "I heard Mr. Yarn's daughter is among this batch of interns.""The CEO is so inconsiderate! He could have at least let his daughter start as a manager!"I was surprised. Who could've leaked this information?Fortunately, after a bit of random speculation, everyone soon moved on to other topics.That was until the intern orientation meeting.A woman who was late introduced herself, "Hi, everyone, I'm Tiffany Yarn.""Tiffany Yarn… Are you the CEO's daughter?" The person beside her gasped, covering their mouth.The entire meeting room burst into excitement.After all, Tiffany was dressed head-to-toe in designer brands, even sporting Cartier's latest Ball
"Yvonne Thornton is so annoying! She openly opposed me being made group leader this morning, and just now, she tried to argue with me again.""Really?" Garreth murmured as he wrapped his arm around Tiffany's slender waist, pinning her entirely in the dim corner. "Leave it to me. I'll make sure she doesn't last until the end of this internship."Following that, the silent stairwell was filled with unseemly suggestive sounds.I felt a shiver run down my spine, but at the same time, I found it amusing.I was curious to see exactly how they planned to make me leave before the internship ended.Sure enough, I was called into Garreth's office first thing the next morning."Why didn't you submit the materials I assigned you yesterday? If you can't even complete the most basic tasks, you do not need to stay any longer."So this was their grand plan? How disappointing.I looked at Garreth with a cold expression. "Did Tiffany report me to you?""She gave an accurate account of the situa
Fiona snatched the watch before I could react and exclaimed, "Tiffany, take a look! Isn't this the one you lost?""Yes, this is definitely the watch my mom gave me," Tiffany replied, her eyes red as she looked at me pitifully. "Yvonne, why is it in your drawer?"Her teary, pitiful expression immediately drew sympathy from those around us.This was truly a performance worth seeing!"Your watch? Why are my initials engraved on the side, then?"The crowd froze in shock again, quickly gathering to inspect the engraving. Sure enough, the letters "Y.T." were etched on the side of the watch.I knew exactly where this watch came from. It had been a gift for my birthday from a classmate who tried to curry favor with me. However, since I already had a surplus of similar styles at home, I listed it for sale online at a discounted price.I still remembered how a buyer contacted me the very next day. She haggled with me endlessly over the price until I got fed up and agreed to knock off a bi
Something even more shocking happened at work the next day."Did you hear? Yvonne is some rich man's kept mistress!""Yeah! An older guy picked her up in a luxury car. We saw it with our own eyes last night. They were chatting and laughing like they didn't care who saw. How shameless!"I shoved the restroom stall door open, glaring coldly at the two gossiping women.They clearly hadn't expected me to overhear. With flushed faces, they quickly scurried out.When I returned to the office, Fiona blocked my path, her face full of disdain. "You're still so young. And yet, of all the things you could be doing, you're breaking up someone's family. Does your family know what you've been up to?"I glared back at her, annoyed. "Stop spouting nonsense if you don't have proof!""Who says I don't have proof? Everyone saw your sugar daddy pick you up in that car last night.""Oh, please! A measly Bentley is nothing. Wait till you see the cars in Tiffany's family garage. Now that's luxury!"
"Yvonne! How about this? Since you worked on the plans, I'll talk to Garreth and ask him to include your name on them. How does that sound?"I sneered. "That was my work!""This is a decision from upper management. After all, you know my identity..."Bringing up her "identity" again! If my dad heard this, he'd probably want to punch her in the face.I looked at her fake smile and asked directly, "So, what do you want?"Tiffany would never so kindly offer to add my name. Sure enough, the next second, she said, "These three plans still need finalizing. How about you write them, and I'll do the final check? That way, it'll count as a collaboration."She wanted me to write all the plans! I could hear her scheming from a mile away!I was about to refuse. However, seeing her try so hard to act pitiful, I changed my mind and replied, "Fine. You must promise me to put my name on them…"Watching Tiffany leave with a barely concealed smile, I thought my current sycophantic attitude must
I had been brimming with confidence, but my expression changed in that instant."Congratulations to those who passed the internship. Welcome to the company! As for those who didn't pass, don't feel discouraged. It just means your values may not align with ours."The only name not called was mine. Everyone gingerly turned their gaze toward me.Those gazes were either laced with pity or mockery.After all, they believed I had offended the CEO's daughter from day one. Even if I stayed, my future here would be bleak.But I wasn't about to accept this without a fight. I stood up and demanded answers."What's the reason? Why am I the only one who didn't pass the internship?"Unlike my colleagues, who were often late or left early, I hadn't even taken a single day off. My work, while not perfect, was far better than theirs."This was a decision made after careful consideration by the upper management. It's not something I can explain to you in just a few words," Garreth replied.He b

"The most important thing now is to find a way to fix this. I have another proposal here. Why don't you take a look at it first? If you think it's not good enough, I'll leave immediately without any complaints."As I spoke, I plugged the USB drive into the computer despite Garreth trying to stop me.He frowned and blocked me with an angry expression. "Yvonne, are you not aware of where we are at? Stop wasting everyone's time!""Let her proceed. I'd like to see just how capable she really is," Johannes added calmly as he walked over to the conference table and sat down.In truth, I had completed this proposal with some guidance from my father. Just this morning before leaving the house, I showed it to him one last time, and even he was very impressed. That gave me even more confidence.As the slides played, the room fell completely silent.The content was deeply analytical. It was far more advanced than anything Tiffany's proposal had offered."Did you come up with all of this yo
