Chapter 209 As the crowd watched in apprehension, Seline turned to them with a bright smile and said, "Letintroduce our new colleague, this is my darling sister, Suzanne." Seline gritted her teeth in secret. By openly acknowledging Suzanne as her sister, she was ensuring that no one would dare blher should anything happen in the future.
She would never have admitted their relationship if she weren't worried that Suzanne might go around revealing the truth. That would make everyone think she had intentionally kept it a secret to avoid taking responsibility for Suzanne, making her seem selfish! The crowd was visibly taken aback.

Suzanne's gaze fell on Seline's hand holding hers. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she pushed Seline's hand away and said coolly, "We're not that close, so please keep your distance." Seline's expression stiffened.
That bitch! How dare she do that in front of everyone? The crowd's opinion of Suzanne shifted. Was she really being this blunt with Seline? Anyone with a bit of sense would at least put on an act.
The deputy manager, Jessica Macher, crossed her arms and rolled her eyes at Suzanne. She said, "You're just an intern, and you're already giving our manager a hard time? Who do you think you are?" Everyone was stunned for a moment. Jessica was really bold to go up against Suzanne! Yet many secretly found it satisfying. An arrogant young heiress like Suzanne was incomparable to their gentle and capable manager, Seline.
Seline's eyes gleamed with satisfaction. This was perfect. All her earlier efforts to paint Suzanne as arrogant and domineering were now paying off as everyone could see for themselves.
Seline hung her head in feigned dejection and said, "Sue, I know you don't like that I'm the manager of the design department, but I worked hard for this position. If you want it, I'll step aside, but the company is in a critical stage right now. We'll need stime." The employees immediately frowned. Suzanne had to be joking! Did a talentless designer like her wish to be the manager of the design department? She would sink the entire company! With Jessica leading the charge, the others couldn't hold back their opinions any longer. One said, "If she becomes the manager, I'd rather resign. I won't let my carefully crafted designs be treated like trash." "That's right!too!" another chimed in.
Seline was secretly delighted. She wanted Suzanne to see that she had no standing in the company right now. What right did this bitch have now to challenge her? She was hoping Suzanne would lash out at her.

Suzanne calmly looked at Jessica. So, this was Seline's lapdog. How ferociously loyal. She smirked lightly •NO and said, "You've only been listening to Seline from the start. Did I ever say I wanted to be the manager?" Seline's face stiffened. Since when was this bitch's mind so sharp? Even the employees hesitated for a moment. She wasn't wrong. All she had said was that Seline should keep her distance.
"Or do you just enjoy putting words in people's mouths, Jessica?" Suzanne's gaze turned icy.
In an instant, a powerful air of authority radiated from her, causing Jessica to shudder. Even them employees watching were surprised. As expected of a Yates family daughter! Even if she seemed useless, that commanding presence was something no one else could imitate.
Jessica's expression soured as she struggled to suppress the panicm rising within her she glared at Suzanne and said, "You! You're twisting my words!" Seline clenched her fists tightly, wishing she could tear Suzanne apart right then and there.
