Chapter 125: Chapter 125

Even though it’s an individual competition, they had to list their current employer when they signed up.

If they can bag a high rank, that would be the bee’s knees. But if they end up at the bottom of the pile, they were just dragging the company’s name through the mud!

And if they got canned because of it, that would be a real kick in the teeth.

As the clock ticked on, Molly felt a pang of regret. With a heavy sigh, she was about to close the webpage.

But just as her cursor hovered over the close button, Rosemary chimed in, "I’ll go with you."

Her words had everyone in the design department, including Molly, bug–eyed. "Ms. Rose, are you?"

The company’s big kahuna was going to be her assistant?

Was she dreaming?

"Ms. Rose, you’re going to be a sidekick for Molly? Isn’t that a bit beneath you?"

"People’ll laugh their heads off if they find out!"

"Ms. Rose, you’re the big cheese of the company, Molly doesn’t deserve."

Rosemary didn’t bat an eye. "Just sign up."

"Ms. Rose."

Before Molly could say anything more, Rosemary asked, "What, you think I can’t cut the mustard? Not up to snuff? Or are you worried I’ll drag down your rank?"

"No. Of course, Molly didn’t think any of those things; she just felt bad about having Ms. Rose as her assistant.

"If you win, that’s the best thank–you I could ask for."

Rosemary wanted to help her because of her unique perspective on design and her genuine love for the industry. Despite having seen its darker side, she never gave up on her dreams and continued to give it her all.

Although she lacked confidence and was not daring enough in her design thinking, Rosemary believed she had potential and talent and was worth investing in.

"Ms. Rose." Molly’s eyes welled up with tears of gratitude. After a moment’s hesitation, she quickly filled in her information.

In the final minute before the deadline, Molly successfully submitted her application, with the whole department cheering her on.

"You got this!"

"To be honest, I always thought you had a knack for design. Now with Ms. Rose by your side, you can let loose and give it your all!"

"Even if there’s a hiccup, Ms. Rose will have your back! If she can’t fix it, no one can!"

"You’re one lucky duck to have Ms. Rose as your right–hand woman."

"Go get ’em, Molly! You can do it!"

"You’re going to make a name for yourself!"

Molly had never felt such overwhelming support and well–wishes before. Gratefully, she said, "Thanks, everyone! I’ll give it my all!"

She then turned to Rosemary with gratitude. Without her, she might have missed this opportunity.

"No need for thanks. I’ll tutor you after work for the next few days," Rosemary replied nonchalantly. "But not tonight; I have plans."

"No problem, Ms. Rose, whenever suits you." Molly never imagined meeting someone who would support her in the field of design, let alone tutor her. She was truly lucky!

After work.

Rosemary texted Romeo McMillan, telling him not to pick her up for the next few days as she had some matters to take care of.

Then Louisa got a call: "Mom, I can’t make it for dinner tonight; I might be coming home late for the next few days." "No biggie, you and Romeo go have a blast; I got this." Louisa thought they were going

to have some alone time.

"It’s work–related."

Hearing this, Louisa thought, work–related? Not done yet? Seeing her daughter so dedicated to her work, she laughed, "Don’t overwork yourself; remember to eat; if you can’t get it done, ask someone for help."

"Sure." Rosemary replied gently, "I’ll be quite busy for the next few days; there’s a competition I need to attend."

After hearing that, Louisa chit–chatted for a bit and then hung up.

Not long after, her phone rang again. Seeing it was her son, she picked up immediately and said, "It’s been a while since you last called me? When are you coming back? I’ve asked you to come home and check on your sister; how many days has it been? Are you trying to piss me off?"

She was about to give him a piece of her mind when she heard him say, "I’m coming back tonight."

Louisa was taken aback. "Tonight?"

That’s pretty sudden!

"Yes, I’m coming home for dinner." Hunter Collins had already bought presents and was on his way home, telling Julian, who was driving, "Step on it." Upon hearing that, Louisa immediately said, "No

rush, safety first."

Great, Hunter Collins was coming back!

After hanging up, she had more dishes prepared.

When she heard that her brother was coming back, Serena Collins was.overjoyed. She waited at the

front door for quite a while, and finally Julian’s car pulled up at the villa.

Julian opened the car door for Hunter Collins.

Seeing that tall and stern figure stepping out, Serena excitedly called out, "Brother!"

Hearing her voice, Hunter Collins softened a bit. After all, they grew up together, and before Rosemary came, the whole family doted on her like a little princess.

Their bond was real.

"You’re finally back; I missed you so much!" Serena’s face was full of joy. "You’re always abroad, it’s not

easy for you to come home. Can you stay longer this time?"

Hunter Collins’ face softened. "Sure."

"Awesome!" Although Serena was somewhat in awe of her brother, she boldly walked over and took Hunter Collins’ hand. "We’ve got a new sister at home recently; it’s quite lively, and now that you’re back,

it’s going to be even more so!"

Hunter Collins glanced at her hand, gently removing it. "You’re grown up now; you should act more mature."

He never liked being touched, but he didn’t mind Serena’s touch; he was even somewhat gentle.

Serena knew that if anyone else dared to take his hand, he would definitely get angry!

Her brother was already quite special to her!

"How’s the new sister?" Hunter Collins asked softly.

Upon hearing this, Serena’s face changed, and she quickly said, "Good, quite good. just like you, a person with a strong personality."

She deliberately avoided eye contact, even feigning fear in her heart.

Her behavior naturally caught Hunter Collins’ eye. It seemed that the girl was a difficult person to get along with.

"It’s alright, spill the beans." Hunter Collins walked with her towards the main hall.

Along the way, Serena wanted to speak but hesitated.

She deliberately concealed the fear and anxiety in her eyes and hesitated for a while before saying, "All in all, you’ll find out soon enough." Hunter Collins’ eyes dimmed a bit; it seemed that sister often bullied her.
