She procured a paper cup and headed to the lounge to fetch herself a cup of coffee.

Approaching Freya with the coffee in hand, Jenny was met with a look of surprise.
Despite being the manager of the design department and overseeing all projects, Freya had not been informed by HR about the two new additions to her team. She didn’t feel obligated to look after them.
This was Nathaniel’s Technologent Group, not the now–defunct Omnilert Group of the Gomez family. The lack of respect from the Human Resources Department didn’t bother her. After all, it was not her
concern.
However, when the new employee approached her with a coffee as a gesture of goodwill, Freya couldn’t help but frown.
After spending three years in prison, Freya found it challenging to interact with anyone other than Peyton. She had developed a social phobia.
Jenny placed the coffee before Freya, smiling as she said, “Ms. Gomez, your coffee.”
It was hard to be hostile towards someone who greeted you with a smile. Freya managed a forced smile and thanked her, although she didn’t touch the coffee cup. She wasn’t a fan of coffee.
Jenny’s forwardness was somewhat inappropriate, but Freya was too polite to decline. She decided to leave the coffee untouched and dispose of it later.
Jenny noticed that Freya barely touched the coffee she had brought over. Her smile faded.
She had intended to test the waters with her boss, but it seemed she was too soft–hearted. Had she actually thanked her sincerely?
Yet, she had the audacity to dislike the coffee Jenny had brought.
After thanking Jenny, Freya lowered her gaze back to her work, indicating that she was busy and Jenny should leave.
Jenny interpreted this as Freya giving her attitude. She was just a designer, where did she get such confidence?

Jenny was also attractive, why couldn’t she be Nathaniel’s mistress?
Jenny laughed, her smile as sweet and innocent as a young girl unaware of the world’s complexities. She leaned against Freya’s desk, laughing heartily, “Ms. Gomez, we all received the chairman’s wedding invitation, but we didn’t see you get one. I wanted to bring it over for you, but the person who sent the

A smirk of schadenfreude crossed the faces of the more senior staff members.

Unable to confront Freya directly, they had enlisted the new recruits to stir the pot. And so, the drama began.
They resented Freya. Why had Mr. Morgan entrusted such a significant project to her? Where was their respect?
Was she just Mr. Morgan’s mistress? What could a mistress possibly contribute?
As everyone watched the unfolding drama, Jenny too turned her gaze to Freya.
Freya’s expression remained unchanged. She calmly closed her laptop, stood up, and looked at Jenny.
Jenny struggled to maintain her composure. Freya didn’t react angrily, nor did she utter a word. Her brief glance was enough to send a chill down Jenny’s spine.
Her eyes didn’t seem human. They were eerily calm, deep, and cold, their depths unfathomable.
Jenny was genuinely frightened, but she managed to maintain her facade, hastily smiling and saying, “Ms. Gomez, I was just asking out of curiosity. Don’t be upset, maybe Mr. Morgan didn’t prepare one for you, or he simply forgot…”
Freya sidestepped Jenny, laptop in hand. She decided to work in the adjoining tea room; it was less noisy there.
