Her Turn to Lead
"Ms. Cladwell—no, CEO, did you see Adrian's face just now? He looked like he swallowed a fly."
She handed me a glass of water, her eyes practically glowing. "And Harvey kept his head down the whole time. He didn't even dare look at you. Jenna was even worse. She was still playing the victim on stage, but the moment the chairman left, no one even bothered with her."
I didn't respond. I opened my computer and started going through documents.
Celeste leaned closer. "Ms. Cladwell, aren't you happy?"
"There's nothing to be happy about." I flipped through the files, my tone calm. "Being CEO is just the beginning. There's a lot more ahead."
