Mr Carroll Went Crazy After Divorce

The next day, Aurora went to work as usual.

She did not know if it was an illusion. She always felt that the colleagues had been consciously or unconsciously looking at her. And the whispers could occasionally be heard.

It wasn’t until she went to the pantry to get some water that she got the answer.

Abigail Bailey bumped into her arm mysteriously. “Oh, I can’t tell, Aurora…”

“Huh?”

Aurora took a sip of water and turned her head. “What?”

“TSK.” Abigail Bailey looked outside and put her elbow on Aurora’s shoulder. “Don’t you feel that the colleagues are looking at you differently today?”

“So… What is it?”

“Because everyone knows you’re T-shine’s Little Princess.”

Abigail raised her eyebrows. “I can’t tell that you’re Mr. Doyle’s sister…”

Aurora almost spat out a mouthful of water, and her eyes widened. “How do you know? !”

“Because Assistant Lee was so high-profile when he came to you.”

Abigail Bailey gave her an unexpected look. “However, everyone is talking about it because you and Mr. Doyle have different surnames. And you don’t look alike. You’re probably not his biological sister.”

Aurora rubbed her own face. She didn’t know how to explain the relationship. “It’s true. But we’re closer than biological ones.”

“I can see that.”

As they walked out, Abigail Bailey jokingly whispered in her ear, “For the sake of my information, let our brother give me a raise sometime.”

“What are you talking about? My brother is not the kind of person who doesn’t know what’s private and what’s public.”

Aurora returned to her desk, in fact, a little distressed.

She did not want her relationship with her brother to be made public.

Although Abigail just now told a joke, it was likely that she meant it.

If, in the future, there were more people, knowing the relationship between she and Albie, who wanted to please her for profit. That was really annoying.

Aurora looked at the unfinished picture on the computer screen and let out a long sigh of relief as she continued to work.

“Never mind. I’ll see when we get there.” Aurora thought.

After a while, it’s time for a meal. The employees around them all suspended their work, ready to go out to eat.

But suddenly there was a loud male voice at the door, attracting everyone’s attention.

“May I speak to Miss Aurora?”

Aurora stood up and looked at him in confusion. “Yes, I am.”

The man in a suit quickly walked over with the food bag in his hand and respectfully placed it on Aurora’s desk. “This is the lunch that President Doyle asked me to bring you. Enjoy your lunch.”

But until that person vanished, Aurora was still in astonishment.

Brother Albie… What’s going on?

The people around her stopped moving and stood where they were, watching the show. “That’s president Doyle’s assistant, isn’t he? I’ve seen him twice in the company before.”

“Yeah, he’s so nice to her sister. Why can’t we have a good life?”

Aurora frowned as she listened to the voices around her.

She was not used to being the center of attention, so she took the bag to the pantry. Therefore, she missed the last two sentences.

“Do you think anyone would do that for his sister?”

“You’re right. Even if they are intimate, it’s not that exaggerated. Besides, they’re probably not biological siblings… She might not be Mr. Doyle’s sister. I’m afraid she would be his wife in the future, right?”

Alex Bishop just walked out of the office, but only to listen to them all.

There was a strange look in his eyes, then he said with a smile, “They’re just siblings. But you’re making it sound so impure. Let’s all go eat. Aren’t you hungry?”

The crowd scattered, and the huge office area suddenly became quiet.

Alex Bishop glanced in the direction of the pantry and went to the vending machine at the door to buy a low-calorie drink.

In the pantry, Aurora was staring blankly at the sumptuous lunch in front of her. The footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer before she regained her senses.

“Aurora, I was wondering why I didn’t see you outside. Did you bring your own food?”

Alex put the water on the table and smiled tenderly.

“… HMM.”

Aurora couldn’t tell him it was because of her brother’s special care. She asked graciously, “I accidentally brought too much. Senior Alex, do you want to eat with me?”

“No, thanks. You gotta eat more of them. Right, this drink isn’t fattening. You can consume it without fear.”

“Well, thank you, sir.”

Alex smiled and nodded. He glanced around the luxurious lunchbox, and then turned to leave.

Aurora breathed a sigh of relief and immediately took out her phone to send a message to Albie: “Brother Albie, you don’t have to bother to bring me food next time. I’m used to eating downstairs, so I can get out for a bit of fresh air.”

So… This wasn’t weird, was it?

But she really didn’t want to get any more attention for this kind of thing.

After the lunch break, Aurora returned to her desk.

And as she thought, many colleagues were eager to come up to say hello to her.

But some of them were a little bit envious. The rest were also mixed with curiosity.

Aurora wanted to run away because she was too tired to deal with it.

Just then, Cory Bird appeared at the door of the design team.

He walked straight up to Aurora and said matter-of-factly, “Miss Robertson, President Doyle wants to see you in the office. He has some work for you.”

It was quiet all around. and all kinds of eyes were directed to him and Aurora from side to side.

Aurora nodded her head and went to Albie Doyle’s office.

“President Doyle, are you looking for me?”

She didn’t call him brother Albie because she believed they should keep their distance in the workplace.

“Yeah.” He didn’t pay much attention to it. However, he couldn’t help but chuckle. And then he pushed the documents onto the table for her.

“This time, you won the Gold Award in the new designer competition. Let’s just say that… The company originally planned to bring in newcomers for the new project, so it was all because of your own strength.”

His expression was serious, seeming to let Aurora’s mind sheer away from images she didn’t need to dwell on.

“New Project?”

Aurora stared blankly and immediately picked up the documents to look at them.

“Uh-huh.”

Albie explained to her, “As you know, our company has a collaboration with the Carroll Group and is planning to jointly create a new fashion clothing brand called clustersofstars.”

“So…”

Aurora flipped through the concept documents in her hand and felt like she was dreaming. “So this time, I have the chance to be a real designer, right?”

“Not a chance.” Albie walked around the table to her side and leaned against the desk. “You are a designer now.”

“Of course, our company doesn’t lack excellent designers. However, new brands need to be infused with fresh blood. That’s why the company paid so much attention to the last newcomer designer competition.

“And you deserve it. I’ve seen your work, and your creativity is great. At that speed, there are almost no flaws in the ready-to-wear. I’m very relieved to hand this project over to you.”

“… Really? To Me?”

T-shine’s collaboration with Carroll Group was definitely not small. It was already beyond Aurora’s imagination to participate in the design of this new brand.

But did what he said mean she was appointed program director?

She looked up in a daze, waiting for his answer.

Albie looked at her dazed expression and suddenly wanted to touch her head. Thinking that this was the office, he held it back again and replied, “Yes, you will be the lead designer for this project.”

Aurora’s happiness immediately emerged on her face. She bowed several times to Albie in excitement. “Thank you, President Doyle. I will definitely live up to my mission!”

Albie laughed. “Silly girl?”

Aurora chuckled too. “Then, President Doyle, I’ll take my leave. I’ll go back and sort out my thoughts first. If you have any instructions, I’m here for you!”

……

Soon, the news that Aurora Robertson would become the new project chief designer spread like wildfire in the company.

And their attitude toward Aurora also turned from the original envy and curiosity into jealousy and dissatisfaction.

“What is she relying on? Is it her face? She’s just a newcomer. She must have pulled strings.”

“Well, we don’t have a CEO, brother.”

After all, with such a big project handed over to a newcomer, it’s needless to say how much risk the company had to bear. If the news was spread, it was not good for the company’s image, right?

Suddenly, all of them dispersed. A woman came in. She had always been respected by everyone. That was Ava.

Ava had been a big hit in the design department lately, and she did most of the top designs in the company.

But no one would have thought that Aurora would suddenly appear and steal her thunder in just one month.

If they were jealous of Aurora, Ava would definitely hold a grudge against her.

No one wanted to be in trouble for her at such a time.

With almost unspoken tacit agreement, they greeted Ava with awkward smiles and left.

Ava watched them leave, her fingers whitening his knuckles.

Emily, her fan, quickly consoled her, “Ava… Don’t take it seriously. Aurora Robertson is a newcomer, and even if you give her a chance, it won’t have much impact. Our design department still depends on you.”

Ava let go of her clenched teeth and gave a strange smile. “Well… of course I won’t hold it against her.”

She was just a little girl who was just starting out!

How could she possibly be qualified to be the project’s lead designer?

Up until today, Ava had thought she was the one. After all, there weren’t many designers in the company who could stand by her side.

Who would thought that Aurora Robertson would take away the project she had been looking forward to with only her connections?Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

The more Ava thought about it, the angrier he became. She came up with an idea…
