Chapter 181 The Person Taking Care of Elizabeth
It was obvious that the two women discussing Elizabeth did not know her and had no idea that the Elizabeth they were talking about was right in front of them, even not knowing the woman they were talking about was named Elizabeth.
They spoke freely with great interest in front of Elizabeth.
"You know, I heard from reliable sources at The Windsor Manor that the Windsor family has acknowledged that illegitimate child."
"Really? Why would they acknowledge a child born to a woman they brought back? The elders of the Windsor family really dislike that woman. I heard she even went to prison before."
"Logically, the elders at The Windsor Manor wouldn't acknowledge such an illegitimate child, but it seems that the child is particularly favored by Marcus. Besides, Mr. Windsor is the only young member of the Windsor family now, so his daughter is naturally the youngest child. The whole Windsor family would obviously like her."
"Doesn't that mean the mother of the illegitimate child will gain respect because of her child?"
"Of course not. I heard Mr. Windsor hasn't even brought that woman back to the old house. Think about it, how could they acknowledge her? A former convict with no emotional ties to Mr. Windsor, and I heard she had a notorious reputation in Sunwillow City six years ago. How could Mr. Windsor want her? Even if Mr. Windsor wanted her, the elders at The Windsor Manor wouldn't agree."
"The Windsor family only acknowledges the child, not the child's mother."
"So, Clara is still Mr. Windsor's fiancée!"
"I have the latest reliable news! Do you want to hear it?"
"What news?"
"I heard Ms. Guise got into a fight with someone yesterday."
The time in the elevator was short, only about two minutes to the thirty-sixth floor. The two women were happily discussing, completely ignoring Elizabeth.
When the elevator reached the thirty-sixth floor, one of the women looked at Elizabeth, asking, "Are you getting off on the thirty-sixth floor too?"
Elizabeth smiled slightly, "Yes."
The woman asked again, "Are you new here?"
Elizabeth nodded again, replying, "Yes."
The woman replied, "Okay."
The two women didn't pay much attention to Elizabeth. When the elevator doors opened, they all got out, continuing their enthusiastic conversation.
"Who did the heir of the Guise family fight with? If she got into a fight, wouldn't Mr. Windsor not want her anymore? Clara, with such poor manners, Mr. Windsor surely wouldn't be interested."
"But Clara has her grandfather's support. I heard the woman she fought with is a distant relative of the Windsor family's matriarch. Another woman crazy about marrying Mr. Windsor."
The two women continued talking as they walked towards their department.
Elizabeth, out of earshot, headed to the HR department.
She had already heard part of the story about Clara and the other woman fighting yesterday. Today, hearing the two women in the elevator, she had a pretty good understanding of the whole situation.
The conclusion was that no one knew she was married to Alexander.
Not even Clara knew.
The distant relative of the Windsor family's matriarch didn't know either.
The reason they fought was that they both wanted to marry Alexander.
This also indicated one thing: she and Alexander had a secret marriage.
To be clear, Alexander married her just to co-parent Alice.
Elizabeth shouldn't take it seriously.
In the future, she would have to rely on herself for work and life.
After completing the procedures in the HR department, the manager took her to the architectural design department. As soon as she arrived, Elizabeth saw the two women who had been discussing her.
They smiled at Elizabeth.
Elizabeth just slightly lowered her head.
The director of the design department assigned Elizabeth a desk. As soon as Elizabeth sat down, a girl ran into the office, loudly asking, "Who is Elizabeth?"
Elizabeth stood up and looked at the girl, saying, "Hello, I am. Do you need something?"
She didn't know this girl. She had just been to the HR department, and it seemed this girl wasn't from HR either. So how did this girl know her, and what did she want?
Elizabeth was a bit puzzled.
She was always introverted, rarely taking the initiative to talk to people. If someone approached her, Elizabeth would feel a bit uneasy and awkward.
The girl smiled at Elizabeth, "Hi, I'm Julia Brown. My cousin told me to look after you since it's your first day at work."
Julia Brown?
Brown?
Elizabeth immediately guessed that Julia's cousin must be Gavin.
Gavin already knew she was working here?
Elizabeth asked Julia in surprise, "Your cousin is..."
"Gavin!" Julia said, "Gavin told me you're a good friend of his, so he specifically asked me to take care of you since you're new here and unfamiliar with everything. Don't worry, Elizabeth, if you need anything, just ask me. Where the company cafeteria is, how to have meals, about the company's working hours, overtime, etc., you can ask me. With me here, you won't feel lonely in the company."
Elizabeth smiled slightly, "Okay, thank you, Julia."
"Well, I'll head back up now. I'm in the after-sales department, just upstairs. If you need anything, call me. I'll get back to work now," Julia said goodbye.
"Okay, thank you," Elizabeth said.
Watching Julia leave, Elizabeth sat at her desk, familiarized herself with the environment a bit, then took her phone to the restroom and called Gavin.
Gavin was in Alexander's office at that moment.
At this moment, Gavin felt that Alexander was not only cold and ruthless but also insidious and cunning. Now, he saw a kind of arrogance in Alexander who wanted to make Elizabeth and Alice happy and wanted to take embarrassing photos of Clara.
But he insisted on having Gavin take the photos.
After he took the photos and sent them to Alexander, Alexander would use them to make Alice and Elizabeth happy, which was great.
But he insisted that Gavin personally deliver them to Elizabeth.
Elizabeth was extremely happy to see them.
Alexander stood outside the study watching.
What kind of mindset did Alexander have? Gavin, who always prided himself on understanding Alexander, couldn't figure it out.
At this moment, Alexander even forced him to hand over his phone, saying that if Gavin handed over his phone, he would buy Gavin a phone worth ten times the price as compensation.
Gavin was really on the verge of tears.
He didn't understand why Alexander wanted his old phone, handing reluctantly his phone to Alexander, only to find that Alexander quickly found Elizabeth from his social media contacts.
Gavin finally understood that Alexander wanted to interact with Elizabeth anonymously.
It seemed like Alexander had discovered a new world because he saw that Elizabeth had posted on Facebook the full name of the company she was going to work for.
