Layla had successfully refined her skills in communication, work, and reading people.
The only thing troubling Layla was the persistent rumor among her colleagues that she was involved with someone from the higher–ups at Aetheris Group. Some of them said that the manager treated herwell because the man backing her was a senior leader at Aetherls Group, and the manager didn’t want to risk offending

This also explained why the manager still treated Layla with respect even though she had initially been so arrogant
