Chapter 14 I’ve Heard Your
Name
Noticing Linsey’s gaze, Cynthia Keller scoffed and lifted her chin with a smug tilt. “What? You got a problem?”
The group around Cynthia quickly jumped in, their mocking voices overlapping.
“Who even is she? Never seen her before. Does she even have any work to her name? Or did she just wander in off the
street?”
“How does someone like her have the guts to show up here? She’s probably fresh out of school. The audacity to apply at CR -what a joke.”
“Right? CR only interviews real designers–people with credentials, portfolios. How did she even get past the resume
screening?”
Linsey instantly caught on. They were deliberately trying to humiliate her. But she kept her expression cool and shot back,
“So, I take it you’re all famous, then?”
Cynthia let out a condescending laugh, her gaze dripping with arrogance. “New to the design world and already this clueless? Do you even follow the industry?”
She flicked her fingers toward the room. “Look around. You’re already at a disadvantage, and now you’re proving you don’t
even know who you’re up against.”
A wave of laughter rippled through the group.
“Wow. That’s just sad. No reputation, no clue who the top names are—why are you even here?”
“Let’s educate her,” a woman chimed in, regarding Cynthia with admiration.
“This is Cynthia Keller. You’re from Grester, right? Then how do you not know her?”
