Chapter 18
Out of the blue, Trevor asked, "Are you coming too?"
"Of course." Rosalynn looked at him.
She was stunningly beautiful, especially her eyes. But at that moment, Trevor felt a shiver down his spine from her gaze.
"Boss, is it appropriate for her to come? After all, she..."
"The problem with the data lies within your team," Rosalynn interrupted calmly. "I can't just let your people go to Prodigy Inc. with the proposal on their own."
Her straightforwardness left the entire sales department speechless.
"You're talking nonsense!" Trevor scolded angrily.
Douglas, however, had a better opinion of Rosalynn after listening to her explanation of the proposal.
He used to think that Rosalynn was meticulous in her work when he first met her, but, deep down, he had a biased view, thinking she only got to her current position because of the president's favor. However, the adjustments she made to the proposal, although minor, undeniably structured it more tailored to the client's needs and more perfect overall.
"Since it was Secretary Tesdal who convinced President Mason, it wouldn't make sense not to have her at the signing," Douglas spoke up.
"Boss, do you also believe her when she says there is a traitor in our team?" Alexis asked,
shocked.
Rosalynn didn't want to get involved in their internal dispute. "Meet me in the parkin lot in 15 minutes," she said.
Then, Rosalynn picked up her laptop, and left without looking back. She was too cool.
Without an office, Rosalynn had nowhere else to go.
She went straight downstairs to the convenience store and bought a bottle of water. She took out her pillbox.
Inside were neatly divided tablets.
She threw a handful of folic acid, multivitamins for pregnant women, and calcium tablets into her mouth and washed them down with water.
Her appetite had been poor lately. She used to love salmon sandwich for lunch, but today the smell of salmon made her feel nauseous, so she ended up not taking a bite at all.

"Secretary Tesdal?"
Rosalynn turned around to see Sean and several other employees from the president's office standing behind her.
Rosalynn put away the pillbox and smiled.
"Are you sick? Why are you taking pills?" Sean asked.
"It's for my anemia. The doctor prescribed me some vitamins and blood builders," Rosalynn answered calmly. "What about you guys?"

"Don't even get me started. Secretary Walley is terrible at her job; she created a huge mess for us and I've been busy until now, only had time to come downstairs for a bite," a girl said, utterly frustrated. "She just started this job. Give her some time," Rosalynn comforted her.
"Let's not talk about her anymore; she's a jinx! We heard that you won that project back for the sales department, Secretary Tesdal!" the girl's eyes sparkled.
Rosalynn nodded. "We're about to go to Prodigy Inc. to sign the contract."
"Well done, Secretary Tesdal!" Sean gave her a thumbs up.
After some more chatting, Rosalynn left. Before she left the convenience store, she roughly estimated the items her coworkers had in their hands and handed the cashier three hundred dollars to pay for their purchases.
The people at the president's office had always been kind to her. Her resignation due to her personal relationship with Wayne had caused them some trouble, and she felt a bit guilty.
Sean and the others found out that Rosalynn had paid for their stuff, which made them feel even more nostalgic and miss her even more.
As they walked back to the office, they continued talking about Rosalynn.
Wayne came out of his office just in time to hear, "I remember Secretary Tesdal can't stand bitterness. Taking so many pills must be really uncomfortable for her! I need to buy her some candy!" Seeing Wayne, Sean immediately stood straight. "Mr. President."
The others also quickly got up, "President Silverman..."
