*    ⟢   april anderson → @journclist : ❝ in our line of work, rumours run rampant. ❞

single brow lifts as she leans back into the supple leather of her chair, one ankle crossing over the other elegantly as she surveys the brunette. " is that so, miss... anderson, was it ? " lips quirking as her head tips a fraction to one side, disturbing the silken blanket of her hair. " are you going to tell me what rumours you have heard that concerns me ? i would be most interested in hearing them, i find the trivial gossip of our staff rather entertaining. " a clever insinuation as to the nature of whatever such rumours she might have heard -- condemning them pre-emptively to the realms of jealous chatter among colleagues that would happily prise her hard earned title from her hands in a heartbeat. most assumed that as heir -- daughter -- of the company who's name adorned this very building, she did not have to work to maintain her position, her reputation. such assumptions were so far from the truth that it was laughable, but the truth was a privilege that no one here had yet earned. so she was happy to allow them their delusions, hoping it might inspire them to work harder; everyone had different motivations after all. jealousy was always a big one.
