Chapter 16 Project Presentation

• It's been a week since I started work at EG-group, and I was apprehensive about meeting Ellis. The few times I did, I avoided him like fire and avoided going close or speaking to him even though he wanted to talk to me. There was weirdness between us, and associates were picking up on it and were whispering about it. Ellis was still fresh in my memories, skin, and every part of me. I hated it. I hope it will disappear. There was a knock on my door, and Jamie walked in with a smile. He was a gossiper and got involved in everyone's business.
• " What?"
• " You're still the topic out there. You should hear the theories of what people are saying about you and the CEO," he told me, putting a mug of coffee in front of me. I took it and sipped it. Pretending not to care, this was like K-Corp over again. The boss dating the intern, I don't know what they'd accuse me of. I leaned back in my seat as Jamie continued chatting away.
