Two elegantly dressed young women, presumably recent additions to the design department, deliberately raised their voices in laughter as they saw Freya approaching, “Have you received the invitation card yet?” Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
“I have. Every employee in our company, regardless of their tenure, has received one.”
“However, while the new employees are only allowed to enjoy the island, the more seasoned employees have been granted a luxury cruise. We’re all getting three days off at the start of next month to celebrate the chairman’s wedding.”
Freya’s expression shifted as she processed their words.
Wedding? Nathaniel’s wedding?
The news of Nathaniel’s impending nuptials took Freya by surprise.
No wonder Nathaniel had been spending less time at Newport Villa lately, giving her more free time.
She paused for a moment, then continued towards her temporary workspace.
It wasn’t that she lacked an office; her office was on the same floor as Nathaniel’s. However, she preferred to avoid it unless absolutely necessary.
The thought of sharing an entire floor with just Nathaniel was enough to make her feel uncomfortable.
Settling at her desk, Freya opened her laptop.
The two gossiping women seemed unwilling to let Freya off the hook. Being newcomers, they were unaware of the past tension between Freya and Nathaniel.
Both were designers, recent graduates from prestigious foreign universities, and new hires at the Technologent Group in Saeville.
The Technologent Group was a renowned enterprise in Saeville, known for its top–tier benefits. They considered themselves fortunate to have been hired.
Upon meeting the chairman, Mr. Morgan, they were nearly starstruck by his allure.
Handsome and wealthy, he exuded a charisma that was far beyond that of the average affluent man.
However, it was rumored that Mr. Morgan’s heart belonged to Abigail Hill, the eldest daughter of the Hill family and a top socialite in Saeville. A woman of many talents, she was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
They were a perfect match. The girls knew they couldn’t compete with Abigail, but they wondered about Freya.
Wasn’t she the ex–convict who had just been released from prison? They had heard that she had pushed

The two women, unable to hide their resentment, spoke loudly in an attempt to provoke Freya, but she remained unfazed.
Jenny’s contempt for Freya intensified. As a rela
he head of the Human Resources Department at
the Technologent Group, she had used gifts and money to secure her position.
Upon joining, she had hoped to showcase her talents, but was disappointed to find that the Design Department Manager was not only a young woman but also a recently released convict.
How could she, a graduate of a prestigious university, work under a murderer?
She had heard rumors of Freya’s reckless past, including her time as a barmaid at Red Shift.
She held Freya in low regard, and along with Maggie Holmes, deliberately tried to provoke her.
Freya, however, remained indifferent and focused on her work.
Who did this woman think she was!
Jenny hatched a plan and signaled to Maggie, who was standing next to her. Maggie was happy to gossip in private, but she didn’t dare to openly challenge the department manager.
She quickly shook her head, causing Jenny to lose even more respect for her.
Even though Maggie had been hired into the design department alongside her, and her designs were superior, Jenny wasn’t concerned.
She had connections and support, while Maggie had nothing. With the internship period not yet over, Jenny was eager to see how Maggie would fare in the competitive environment of the Technologent Group.
