Chapter 22 The Gossip Spreads

• The news of Eve's closeness to Mrs. Daphne and her appointment as Gery's assistant certainly did not escape the whole company's attention. News began to spread that something was going on between Eve and Gery. And unpleasant gossip was inevitable.
• Eve was now facing a bad atmosphere because whenever she was in the cafeteria, she would hear the other staff whispering and glancing at her. It was obvious that they must be talking about her. Eve initially tried to ignore them, but she got fed up. Finally, she never went to the cafeteria anymore. She deliberately asked her mother to prepare a lunch box for her every day because she didn't have time to queue for food in the canteen.
• "Eve, did you hear about the rumors circulating about you among the employees?" Dave asked one day when they decided to have lunch together at a spot in Vinestra Park.
