The atmosphere in the office transformed into a lively exchange as Selena and Kelvin engaged in animated conversations, seamlessly weaving between personal anecdotes and professional matters.
Their conversation hit a pause when a notification chimed on Selena's phone. "Excuse me," she said, and Kelvin nodded. Opening her phone, Selena's eyes widened as she read an unexpected Gmail message, her jaw dropping in astonishment.
Kelvin, intrigued by her reaction, inquired, "What is it?" He fixed his gaze on her, awaiting an explanation.
"The Williams company," she began, pausing for a moment, "just offered me the position of head of operations." Selena stammered, her surprise palpable.
A shadow crossed Kelvin's face upon hearing this news. "Did you apply for a job there?" he questioned, a stern edge to his voice, masking the underlying anger. "Did you doubt the competence of my company and that's why you applied somewhere else?"
