Chapter 17 This Deputy Director White Must Be Something , Right ? Chapter 17 This Deputy Director White Must Be Something , Right ? Bianca rushed toward her , speaking quickly , her tone soft and anxious . " Clara , don't misunderstand . Uncle Smith said you've been too busy with your thesis , and this job is too stressful . He was afraid it would distract you , so he asked me to help . I thought it was just temporary ... " Clara let out a cold laugh , fixing her father with a sharp stare . " Dad , was it you who arranged for me to be dismissed from the company ? " Mr. Smith frowned . " Clara , the company has its own rules . You really haven't been focused on work these past six months . The board has raised strong objections , and 1 have to think of the company's overall interests . " Clara's voice sharpened . " And all the contributions I've made to Starry Group - do you have no memory of them ? Using that excuse to dismiss me isn't this just to clear the way for someone else ? " Her gaze turned to Bianca , the mockery in her eyes unrestrained . Bianca's face paled . " I'm sorry , Clara . I thought we were sisters . I only wanted to share your burden , that's all . If you don't like it , then I'll give the position back to you . I never wanted to come between you and Uncle Smith . " " Bianca , this has nothing to do with you , " Mr. Smith immediately cut in , defending her . He turned to Clara , his tone reproachful " Clara , Bianca studied abroad and is a top talent . Bringing in talent is perfectly normal . Watch your words you sound petty and out of line . " By now , employees from the tech department were peeking curiously from the hallway . " Hey , did you hear ? Last week Mr. Carter personally called off his wedding with Miss Smith for this new Deputy Director Whute . " "What ? Seriously ? If she made Julian back out of a wedding , this Deputy Director White must be something special . " " Of course ! She's an MIT graduate , a real overseas elite . I heard she even won an international award in AL . As soon as she came back to the country , top tech firms were fighting to recruit her . " " Compared to that , Clara's so - called achievements are nothing . She's only where she is because she's the chairman's daughter . " " Exactly . Aside from throwing her weight around as a spoiled heiress , what does she even know ? Bianca gave up high - paying offers abroad to help out here , and Clara's still making a fuss ? She's the one who can't see straight . " " The voices weren't loud , but they carried clearly enough for Clara to hear every word . This time , she actually laughed in disbelief . " Clara , if you've got something to say , we'll discuss it in my office , " Mr. Smith barked . " Don't make a scene here . " His tone softened as he turned to Bianca . " Bianca , settle in . With me here , you don't have to worry about anything else . " Chapter 17 This Deputy Director White Must Be Something , Right ? Just then , a young employee from the tech department came running over , flustered . " Deputy Director Smith ! Bad news - the SkyVault system's main server crashed again ! User data can't be read properly ! " Mr. Smith snapped at him . " What's the panic ? Don't you see Deputy Director White is here ? From now on , take all technical issues directly to her ! " The young employee froze , glancing between Clara and Bianca , completely at a loss . Bianca gave Clara an apologetic , almost worried look . " Maybe ... maybe you should handle it ? Uncle Smith just wanted me to share some of your burden . If my being here makes you unhappy , or worse . causes the company losses , then it's my fault . " Clara stared at her coldly , saying nothing . She was suddenly very curious - just how Bianca planned to solve a technical problem that even she herself had struggled with ( 0 ) UAY ધર્મ 11:58
