Filed to story: Oops! My Junkyard Husband Is A Billionaire

The design department had always been the core of the whole clothing company. Therefore, it occupied the largest area and had the largest number of people in the company.

Even if the company was just established, there was no shortage of staff in the design department.

When Jess went into the design department, she looked around without traces.

She even found two acquaintances in the crowd – Chloe Field and Helen.

These two were new design masters that took award in abroad recently. She didn’t expect that they were hired by Ray.

As for the others, they looked unfamiliar and most of them were new to the industry.

She thought in her mind, and looked away.

She actually saw Amelia.

She saw Amelia stand beside Chloe Field and Helen, they talking and laughing, and they seeming to get along well.

It seemed that Amelia noticed her eyes. Amelia saw Jess walk slowly and her face was darkened immediately.

The staff didn’t notice Amelia’s difference, and when the staff saw Amelia, the staff introduced Jess to Amelia.

“Jess, this is our President’s assistant, assistant Amelia, but because there is no director in the design department, the President asked her to be the acting director temporarily. So she will be your boss in the future.”

Listening to the introduction of the staff, Jess frowned uneasily.

Amelia became her boss. As Amelia was hostile to her, she was afraid that her work wouldn’t go well in the future.

And so it was.

After the staff made a simple introduction, the staff let Amelia to arrange.

After the staff left, Amelia’s eyes looked at Jess with the complacent smile.

“Welcome you to join us.”

She said with a smile on her face and she embraced Jess.

“Jess, you had better be obedient under my management. This is not home, and don’t let me catch you on the wrong foot. Otherwise I will never let you escape so easily.”

She whispered in Jess’s ear with the volume that only two of them could hear and threatened in cold voice.

Jess heard her words, squinting at her, and struck back with the same volume, “you can rest assured, and I will work hard. You will get nothing on me.”

When she finished, she distanced herself from Amelia. She looked at Amelia, half smirking.

Amelia was exasperated by her attitude.

But because there were others around her, she could only suppress her anger.

Others didn’t notice their silent battle.

Thinking that Jess was the newcomer, there were extroverts initiating conversations.

Jess didn’t pay attention to Amelia anymore, and she talked to the new colleagues in order to understand the company’s current situation.

After a while, she became familiar with many people, which was not expected by Amelia.

Amelia looked at Jess’s smiling face and it was hard not to tear Jess’ face apart for her.

Fortunately, she refrained herself and clapped her hands. “We’ve wasted a lot of time,” she said. “Maybe it’s time for you to get back to work.”

With her words, they remembered their work at hand, and they were all of sudden like birds and beasts scattering. Only Jess still stood in place.

“Acting director, where is my office?”

She asked Amelia, frowning.

When Amelia heard her words, she raised the corner of the lips maliciously. She pointed to a corner and said, “you can go to work there. All the other positions have been taken. I will adjust you when there is a position.”

Jess heard her words, and turned to where she was pointing.

Seeing that the location was near the tea room in a small corner, and the space was very small. It just could put down a desk and a chair, and if someone was inside, it would be crowded.

Not to mention that the lighting was not very good, especially for designers like them. If the lighting was not good, it was easy to make mistakes when designing.

To see this, Jess could not help but squint her eyes.

She knew Amelia was deliberately to place obstacles, but she didn’t want to argue with her on her first day at the company.

She would bring an extra lamp tomorrow, no big deal.

Without saying anything, she grabbed her handbag and headed for the corner.

Amelia looked at her back as she left, her eyes flashing with surprise.

“When did the woman change her temper?”

It could say that Jess’ move was out of her expectation.

She thought that Jess should resist her immediately, even to make a scene with her, according to Jess’s temper.

But Amelia didn’t expect Jess can accept her arrangement so quietly.

She had planned to kick Jess out of the company for disobedience if Jess got into trouble.

It was a pity.

She thought, but suddenly she changed her thought. A change before the despondent expression, she raised the corner of her lips, sneering.

Since this woman was determined to stay in the company, and she had become the woman’s boss. It gave her chance to humiliate this bitch.

When she thought of this, she glanced at Jess maliciously and turned to leave.

Jess did not pay attention to Amelia. When she had a seat, she put down the things and tidied them up.

Although it was not a good place, she was satisfied with it, and she would not go to the company every day.

As a designer, she was relatively free, except the necessary meetings which she must join, she could also work at home.

So she wouldn’t see Amelia at any time.

Thinking that, the anxiety hidden in her heart gradually appeared.

However, what she believed was always beautiful, the reality was often cruel.

Just after she had been in office for less than an hour, Amelia went back and came to her.

“Ruby Rogers, now you need to go to the fabric market immediately. A design that Chloe Field is responsible for needs Jiangnan brocade. It has been settled down before, but the fabric was delayed and has not been delivered yet. You go to see what happened and bring the fabric back by the way.”

Hearing that, Jess subconsciously frowned and retorted, “Design Director, does it seem that the assistant designer is responsible for the work?’

In other words, she should go to ask an assistant to do that.

After all, she was not here to work as an assistant.

Amelia naturally understood her meaning and sneered, “I naturally know this is in charge of the assistant. But now assistants in the company are not enough at the moment and others are busy, so I can only ask you to do that.”

Of course, Jess did not believe what she said at all. When she came to report for duty just now, she had saw many assistants.

And the company had been formed before long, it would not be too busy.

Thinking that, she was ready to speak something again, but was interrupted by Amelia.

“Ruby, I don’t want to hear any rebuttal.”

As she said, she leaned down to look at Jess, with a voice only they two could hear, sneering, “Don’t forget your current identity, and my identity. I am the director of the design department, your immediate superior. It is natural that you should obey my orders. Secondly, you are a fresh employee. You are not more experienced than Chloe Field and not more professional than Helen, why do you work as a designer as soon as you enter the company?”

Then she raised her head and eyebrows proudly, saying, “What I said has been very clear. Either stay and do some trivialities, or go back and be your young hostess.”

Hearing these words, Jess trembled with anger.

She really wanted to ask Ray to help reclaim the justice for her.

But soon she suppressed the impulse.

Not to mention that Ray did not want others to discover their relationship, even she did not want to rely on him for everything.

Wasn’t it just to do odds and ends? It was fine that she would just make it.

“Amelia, I hope you won’t regret what happened today. Give me the address.”

Amelia looked at her indignant look and smiled.

“Regret? That will not happen until you have the opportunity to stage a comeback, but as long as I am here, you do not dreaming about it.

She threatened coldly and immediately threw the address to Jess, “Go early and return early. Don’t delay on the way, otherwise I will punish you for staying away from work without leave or good reason.”

Looking at the address in front of her, Jess directly ignored her and grabbed the bag beside her and left.

Amelia looked at her figure and snorted coldly. When she was about to leave, Chloe Field came over.

“Amelia, don’t you get along well with that new designer? Do you know her? Is there any contradiction between you?

She was a good friend of Amelia, and understood Amelia very well. After seeing her talking with Jess with a bad attitude twice, she was doubtful so she came to ask her.

And this time she could enter the company, Amelia had helped her a lot. If she hated someone, she would naturally help her to deal with.

“She is not qualified with the post as a designer. She just found favour in the president’s eyes coincidentally so that she could enter the company.”

Hearing her words, Amelia said angrily, “I don’t know her. But there are some contradictions between us.”

Hearing that, Chloe Field immediately understood her meaning and said with a flattering smile, “Since she makes you unhappy, I’ll teach her a lesson for you.”

Amelia glanced at her and did not refuse that.

After all, there was a person who voluntarily offered her services. Even if Ray would know that, she could absolve herself from the responsibility.

…

Jess did not know that Amelia had found a helper. After she left the company, she went straight to the fabric market.

After finding the supplier and knowing the reason for the delay in delivery, she took the fabric back to the company.

“Designer Field, this is the fabric you need.”

She put the fabric on Chloe Field’s table and was about to leave, but Chloe Field stopped her.

“Ruby, wait a minute.”
