EuropeNovelChapter 276 Sure enough, the others were already eyeing Suzanne with wary eyes, subtly keeping their distance.
But she remained unfazed as her sharp gaze landed on Seline and Lillian. Her voice was cool and measured as she remarked, "You might want to think twice before making any moves. Otherwise, you'll have to deal with the consequences." Lillian felt her throat tighten as if Suzanne's hand were gripping her neck, cutting off her breath. A chill of fear crept up her spine. She swallowed hard, unable to muster a single word.
With that, Suzanne turned and strode back to her workstation, leaving Seline standing there, feigning composure. But beneath the surface, her eyes burned with hatred.
"Who does that bitch think she is?" she seethed inwardly.
Seline was the department manager, yet somehow, Suzanne continued to outshine her at every turn. The injustice of it made her stomach twist.

There's no need to be so serious." Then, turning to the rest, she tried to smooth things out. "Alright. Back to work, everyone." But deep down, she was afraid. Suzanne was unpredictable. If she pushed Suzanne too far, there was no telling what would happen.
At Seline's command, the employees returned to their workstations, though their gazes lingered on Suzanne. There was an undeniable air about her that set her apart. Compared to Suzanne, Seline barely measured up.
Seline felt their shifting gazes, and her grip behind her tightened.
Damn it. Despite painting Suzanne as a menace, people were still drawn to her.
From the moment Suzanne set foot in this company, nothing had gone right. Just wait. One day, she would make sure that Suzanne was utterly ruined. Meanwhile, Suzanne was wholly indifferent to whatever storm was brewing in Seline's mind. She simply buried herself in work. More than anything, her disregard only fueled Seline's frustration to the brink of madness. Yet she couldn't find a single flaw in Suzanne.
Seline stormed into her office, slamming the door shut behind her. The moment she was alone, she grabbed her purse and hurled it to the floor.
"Screw that bitch!" she screamed inwardly.
If not for the glass walls, she would have overturned her entire desk in fury.
Just then, a knock at the door made her quickly compose herself. "Cin." Tanya stepped inside, shutting the door behind her with quiet urgency.
Seline turned, shooting her an icy glare. "What took you so long?" she snapped.
Because of Tanya's delay, she was humiliated in front of everyone. She was utterly useless.

Tanya, however, was unfazed. She had seen Seline's outbursts before.
ΟΠΤ Without missing a beat, she approached with a sly smile. "Ms.
Yates, I have a way to make Suzanne look like a fool."
Seline's anger cooled just enough for interest to spark in her eyes. Shen sank into her chair, watching Tanya closely. "What do you have in mind?" She would love nothing more than to see Suzanne humiliated.
Tanya's smile deepened. This was exactly the reaction she had expected. Stepping forward, she m placed a folder on Seline's desk and tapped the cover. "Take a look at this, Ms. Yates." Seline's gaze flickered to the folder. After flipping through the contents, she lifted her head to meet Tanya's eyes.
"The Elite Award?" she asked.
The Elite Award, an internationally renowned honor, was the highest recognition in the country's jewelry industry. Her eyes narrowed. "And how exactly will this help us humiliate Suzanne?"
