CHAPTER 198: CHAPTER 198: NO WAY YOU CAN FIRE HER

Nina Sinclair sneered, ignoring Sierra Sinclair’s fury.

Fortunately, she was hired by President Lancaster, Sierra likely didn’t have the authority to fire her. After all, Julian Lancaster had spoken up for her specifically back then.

She didn’t have to take Sierra seriously at all.

Nina crossed her arms and said calmly, "I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. First, I wasn’t hired by you, so if you want me to leave, you’ll need approval from the person who hired me. Second, even though I’m the design director at Elysian, I’m not under your supervision."

In other words, Sierra couldn’t fire her, no way!

Hearing Nina’s words, Sierra turned green with anger, clenching her fists but having no way to deal with Nina.

Just as she was about to say something, a hand rested on her shoulder. She turned to see it was Vincent Lancaster.

He shook his head gently, signaling her to stop speaking.

Sierra’s expression became even more unpleasant at that moment.

Could it be Vincent was going to stop her from dealing with Nina? Was he still hung up on Nina?

Fury rose in Sierra’s chest, almost consuming her. She gritted her teeth and whispered, "Vincent! What do you mean?"

"I’ll talk to you later. Don’t worry about her for now."

Sierra heard the underlying meaning in his words, showing a suspicious expression.

Could there be some inside story?

Moments later, Sierra suppressed her turbulent anger and regained her composure, smiling as she continued to discuss reporting matters with the other designers.

After briefly getting acquainted, Rhonda led the others to tour the company.

Meanwhile, Sierra pulled Vincent into the office.

Once the office door closed, Sierra couldn’t help but question, "Vincent, why did you stop me from dealing with Nina just now?"

"Sierra, listen to me..." Vincent took a deep breath and said slowly, "I stopped you just now not to help Nina but because I didn’t want you to embarrass yourself further. Nina might have attached herself to someone powerful!"

"What?" Sierra looked at Vincent in surprise.

She cautiously asked, "Is it... President Lancaster?"

"No," Vincent shook his head. "Leave it for now. I’ll investigate further."

Vincent didn’t know either, so Sierra had to hold back her curiosity.

At this moment, Nina and several other designers returned to their seats after touring the office.

Rhonda pointed to a small, independent area and said to Nina, "Director Sinclair, this is your space."

As the design director, Nina had her own independent workstation, separate from the other designers.

"Oh, and your assistant will come over shortly." Rhonda seemed to remember something and added.

Nina was surprised.

She even had an assistant? This treatment was just too good!

Previously, Sierra and the others didn’t know Nina was the design director, thinking she was sent by Zenith, so they gave her the best setup. Now they probably felt as bad as swallowing a fly.

Rebecca Lowell looked at Nina’s various privileges, her face dark and eyes filled with overflowing jealousy.

Damn Nina, once again stepping over her!

The first day was to get familiar with the company, so there was no need for complex work yet.

The time passed quickly.

After work, Nina remembered that Julian Lancaster, who brought her, said he’d pick her up after work. Thinking about it, she sent Julian a message and quickly received a reply.

He said he’d be there soon.

Nina happily started packing up to leave.

After she left, a shadow followed her stealthily.
