"I'm your Assistant. This is what I should do."
Jack Li smiled back warmly. Fortunately, he had already seen this situation coming. He had expected that there would be some people looking for trouble with Cathy after the list was announced, so he printed out a draft of Cathy's design in advance.
Everyone felt ashamed and was too embarrassed to say anything else. They just wanted to turn and leave.
Cynthia Yang clenched her fists in anger, not willing to give up. She glared at Cathy and said in a strange tone.
"I heard that one day ago, the senior leaders initially discussed that the name list for this competition should be determined by the situation, and that the qualified designers of the company should compete for it."
"Later, I don't know what happened, but the CEO suddenly decided to settle the name list in person. I remember that Cathy was in the CEO's office these days."
Although it was not explicitly stated, her words hinted that Cathy had used some underhanded methods.
The depressed crowd seemed to have found something new, they all looked at Cathy questioningly, even mockingly and disgustedly at her.
Cathy frowned, "Cynthia Yang, make yourself clear. What's with this thing you're implying?"
"Do you still need me to make it clear? Don't you know what have you done yourself?"
Cynthia Yang looked at Cathy maliciously and said, " the reason I didn't say it is that I'm protecting your dignity."
She didn't make it ckear, but her meaning was clear; it was even clearer that she wanted to arouse others thought of disapproval.
At this moment, wether Cathy explained or not, it would make her look as though she was hiding something. And she did go to Marvin's office a few days ago.
"The plans discussed by the higher-ups are just preliminary. The CEO is the final decision-maker. He decided the name list himself because he thought it was good. This a common in every company. What does this to have to do with Cathy?"
Jack Li spoke with a cold expression. His tall body stepped forward a little, seemingly blocking Cathy's from the spectators as if he was protecting her.
Cynthia Yang sneered and said, "true, it may seem that this has nothing to do with Cathy. However, for someone without proper qualifications, Isn't it strange that the CEO decided to pick her out personally?"
It was a statement of denial. However, it was more vicious than any accusations.
In everyone's heart, they will all inclined to believe that Cathy had obtained the entry through some shady means.
Cathy frowned in frustration. How could Cynthia Yang be so despicable? It was not easy for her to get this qualification, and yet she had to be pointed at and rebuked by others.
Was it that believable that she got the qualification through some unseen shady means?
Her designs and talents would be completely drowned out by these outrageous opinions.
"Thud...thud....."
