Gretchen sneered.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ms. Randolph, if I remember correctly, today is Veronica&#8217;s first day here. And she is still a college student. Are you sure you want her to translate this audio file? You must be kidding, right?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gretchen, I just want to tell you that you are not the only one in this company who can translate this audio file. You can&#8217;t use this as a bargaining chip to blackmail the company into acceding to your unreasonable demands!&#8221; Kyla said coldly.<\/p>\n<p>Gretchen snorted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kyla, is it too much for me to ask for a raise and an extra day off every week? I am an ordinary translator anymore. Do you know how many companies would offer me a job?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ll agree to a reasonable raise, but your request is out of line. You asked the company to double your salary. That&#8217;s impossible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gretchen smiled mockingly. And she fiddled with her big wavy hair.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well&#8230; Since you said no to my request, then I&#8217;m afraid that there&#8217;s nothing I can do with this audio file&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Before Gretchen could finish, Kyla turned to Veronica and said, &#8220;I have an audio file. Can you translate it before noon?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Although Veronica didn&#8217;t know what kind of audio file it was. But she knew that file was very important.<\/p>\n<p>She nodded cautiously. &#8220;I&#8217;ll try.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kyla&#8217;s face darkened. &#8220;I need a guarantee.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ll do my best. And I won&#8217;t let you down, Ms. Randolph!&#8221; Said Veronica.<\/p>\n<p>Kyla lifted her chin at Veronica. &#8220;Great! Veronica, you can leave now. I will send you the audio file immediately.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Okay.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After that, Veronica walked out of Kyla&#8217;s office.<\/p>\n<p>Gretchen stood in front of Kyla&#8217;s office desk. She looked at Veronica. And there was a glint of mockery in her eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Veronica got the audio file that Kyla sent her after returning to her seat.<\/p>\n<p>She immediately took out her headphones from her drawer. She played the audio and listened to it carefully.<\/p>\n<p>During the process, Veronica realized that this was a very professional document.<\/p>\n<p>When Veronica had just heard half of it, Gretchen walked out of Kyla&#8217;s office.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing Veronica listening to the audio file in the seat, Gretchen went directly to Veronica.<\/p>\n<p>Veronica was focused on the audio, and she did not notice Gretchen had come to her. Veronica didn&#8217;t do anything.<\/p>\n<p>Gretchen knocked on Veronica&#8217;s table with her finger.<\/p>\n<p>Veronica raised her head when she heard that. Veronica paused the audio and took off her headphones. She stood up and nodded at Gretchen politely.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What can I do for you, Gretchen?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gretchen looked at Veronica scornfully. She sneered, &#8220;You are listening to this audio file? Are you sure you can understand it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Most of them had a look of doubt and ridicule in their eyes.<\/p>\n<p>After all&#8230;It was not a secret that Veronica was still a college student. And it was her first day here in this company.<\/p>\n<p>How could a college student with no experience translate such a difficult file from a big company like Costswich Company? Moreover, the document that needed to be translated was an audio file, not a paper one.<\/p>\n<p>To translate audio files, translators need both language skills, listening skills, and comprehensive language ability. Translating audio files was much more difficult than translating paper files.<\/p>\n<p>In the company, many people could do audio file translation. But Gretchen was the only one who could translate the audio files from Costswich Company.<\/p>\n<p>That was the reason why Gretchen used it as a bargaining chip.<\/p>\n<p>Now, a college student who had just joined the company had translated the audio file from Costswich Company. Wasn&#8217;t that an open challenge to Gretchen?<\/p>\n<p>Kyla&#8217;s face changed slightly after Gretchen took the document.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What are you doing, Gretchen?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gretchen looked at Kyla with a smile. &#8220;Calm down, Ms. Randolph. We are all curious. We just want to know how good Veronica is. Mr. Willie even made an exception for her.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kyla still wanted to say something, but Veronica put her hand on Kyla&#8217;s hand.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gretchen, you have more experience than I do. It&#8217;s my pleasure to have you check my work. Please give it back to me after you finish!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gretchen didn&#8217;t even want to look at Veronica. She looked down at the document in her hand.<\/p>\n<p>However, when Gretchen read the paper, her expression abruptly changed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-4017","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/4017","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4017"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
