Chapter 372
When Love Comes Late
âWhen I asked you to give it to me yesterday, you said that you could give it to me today.
â
Alban lowered his voice and explained, âMr.
Clark assigned us a sudden task today, instructing us to prioritize it.
Iâm truly sorry.
â
âMr.
Clark?â Docieâs frown deepened.
âSince when has he become a fashion designer himself?â
âItâs not Mr.
Clark, but his personal PR officer, Stella,â Alban clarified.
âHe instructed us to prioritize her sample.
â
Docieâs expression darkened.
During Donnâs art exhibition, Stella had managed to outshine her in front of Matthew.
Now, to make matters worse, even the clothing department was prioritizing Stella over her.
With Matthewâs support, it felt as if Stella could waltz into the design departmentâs affairs without restraint.
Did Stella aspire to replace her as the design departmentâs director next?
As Docie ruminated on these thoughts, her anger grew.
Realizing how angry she looked, Alban grew even more nervous and quickly made up an excuse to leave.
âI have work to do now.
I will definitely have your sample ready tomorrow.
â
Without giving Docie a chance to respond, he quickly rushed out and went to the workroom.
Realizing that there was no outlet to vent out her anger on, Docie had no choice but to hold it back.
With a long face, she turned to leave.
While passing the workroom, she heard several voices inside.
Unable to stop herself from eavesdropping, she heard that the people inside were talking about Stella.
âStellaâs design is very professional.
If I hadnât known that she is a PR officer, I would have thought that she worked in the design department.

Someone immediately raised an objection.
âStellaâs design is much better than that of the people in the design department.
I dare say that the director of the design department is not even comparable to her.
â
After that, Docie was unable to hear the rest.
However, everything she just heard was enough to fuel her anger even more as she found herself clenching her fists.
âStella, just wait and see!â
Unaware of Docieâs thoughts, Stella continued with her day.
