Evelyn Clayton suddenly looked up. She picked up the document to take a look; sure enough, it was Winnie Wyatt’s resignation letter. It was written formally and coldly, just like her personality through and through. Evelyn quickly glanced through it, frowning, "Where is she?" The sudden change left Assistant May somewhat stunned, and she muttered, "Seems like she’s already headed to the HR department." Evelyn knitted her brows and got up to leave the office. Just as she reached the door of Winnie’s office, Evelyn saw Winnie coming in through the main entrance, walking straight towards her. Evelyn went straight up to her. Newest update provided by novel⁂fire.net Winnie saw her, her face as always expressionless, "Director Sinclair, do you need something?" "You want to resign?" Evelyn raised an eyebrow slightly, "Reason." Winnie sneered coldly, "Wasn’t my resignation letter clear enough? Besides, after what happened in the conference room today, can you still tolerate me?" Evelyn was almost amused to anger. "Winnie Wyatt." Evelyn called her name with a half-smile, "Are you going to define everyone else by your own small-mindedness?" Winnie choked on her words, eyes flashing with anger, "What do you mean?!" Evelyn chuckled coldly, "I mean it literally. Although what you said to me today in the conference room was quite amusing, I never intended to do anything to you. Why, I’ve done nothing yet, and you’re already afraid of me?" The provocation was a tactic often used on Winnie; she clenched her fists, furiously saying, "Who are you saying is afraid? Shannon Sinclair, don’t be too pleased with yourself!" "If you don’t want me to be too pleased, then stay and do your job." Evelyn raised an eyebrow slightly, "Otherwise, when I leave, do you really want to watch May become the director of the jewelry department?" As she spoke, Evelyn waved the resignation letter in her hand, "Moreover, resigning inevitably makes me suspect that you’re stealing Apex’s trade secrets to give to another jewelry company." Winnie, now extremely angry, laughed instead, "Shannon Sinclair, you’re slandering me!" She, Winnie Wyatt, considered herself highly capable and professional. She couldn’t stand Shannon Sinclair, but she would never betray Apex! "Let me tell you, Shannon, that Apex is not just the work of your life; I’ve also worked for Apex for so many years and have feelings for it!" Winnie seethed with anger, her chest heaving, her eyes turning red. Evelyn’s tone softened. "If that’s the case, don’t overthink it." Evelyn pulled the resignation letter from the document and handed it back to her. Winnie was caught off guard by Evelyn’s sudden change of attitude and froze for a moment. Evelyn said plainly, "I might take May with me to the fashion design department; at that time, Director Sinclair might also transfer a few suitable people from the jewelry department to join me. You’ll need to manage the new personnel and work arrangements. If you leave, Apex might be in chaos for a while." Winnie looked at Evelyn uncertainly, instinctively biting her lip, before haltingly saying, "You, what do you mean?" "You’re the deputy director. When I leave, you automatically become the director," Evelyn smiled. "Such a simple logic, and you don’t get it?" Winnie became even more incredulous, "But, but I got scolded by the big boss in the meeting today—" "He scolded you, yes, but he acknowledges your work," Evelyn smiled slightly. "Otherwise, when you first went to him to badmouth me, he would have fired you then and there."
