Chapter 1040: Chapter 1039: Waiting for Young Master Peary to Pick Me Up After Work
Of course she’ll go wherever she wants, whenever she wants, right?
Becoming an assistant was her own choice, so why do they get to interfere?
Without talking to them anymore, Hazel Quartz walked straight out of the Secretary Department and headed to Human Resources to get the details.
But...
Life still has plenty of things that make people depressed.
And that is...
Ethan Martinez’s assistant had already been found; right now Ethan Martinez’s team wasn’t short on people at all.
Ah, shit!
Did they have to move that fast?
Was this just randomly dragging someone off the street to stick under the team lead?
Gotta admit, Hazel had pretty much guessed the truth.
She trudged back to the Secretary Department, her whole person looking like she’d deflated. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
She’d already mentally prepared to face everything, prepared to end up with nothing.
Only to find out, in the end, that she didn’t even get the chance to experience that. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
She didn’t say anything more and just sat down at her own desk.
"Well? Did you become the little assistant?"
Nia Mitchell couldn’t hold back anymore today and just had to tease her.
Hazel’s expression changed in a second—this was exactly that smug-little-villain look.
"Hmph! Maybe next time I’ll get an even better opportunity."
After saying that she snorted coldly and went back to her own work.
This whole thing felt like just a small interlude; once it ended, it would never be brought up again.
......
Very soon, it was finally quitting time. After Nia packed her things, the CEO’s call had already come in.
"Hello? I was just about to get off work."
She spoke with a smile, her face full of sweetness.
"Mm, wait for me in the Office Room. I’ll be there in about ten minutes."
Ten minutes?
Nia froze for a second. So the CEO was getting off early again today?
Ah, shit!
Why does it feel like after changing jobs, she’s not getting any of the effect she imagined at the beginning?
The CEO still doesn’t have time to properly work!
Her luck was just ridiculously bad.
"Why do you always get off work early? Aren’t you supposed to be super busy?"
Maxwell Peary handled so many things, he ought to be busy to the point where heaven and earth went dark.
Yet this man actually still had time to come pick her up from work!
Was MC Group really okay without him?
Maxwell had no idea what Nia was thinking in her head; he kept driving seriously.
After hanging up, Nia shook her head and sat there helplessly.
The computer had already been shut down earlier, so all she could do was space out.
Seeing her just sitting there, Hazel walked over.
"It’s off work, why aren’t you leaving? Working overtime?"
Her face was full of disdain; just looking at her made people feel uncomfortable.
Nia looked at Hazel, her expression saying everything without words.
"Do I look like I’m working overtime?"
She pointed at the already shut-down computer; she really didn’t want to engage.
"Then what are you still doing here?"
Looking at Hazel like this, Nia was just boiling with anger.
"Waiting for Young Master Peary to come pick me up, of course."
Nia suddenly dropped a provocative line, and it successfully crushed Hazel.
Pft—
Waiting for Young Master Peary to pick you up?
Damn, do you even know what kind of person Young Master Peary is?
Is he the type who goes around picking people up from work?
Is he the type who has time and the mood to do something this boring?
The answer—yes.
It’s just that other people didn’t believe it.
"Nia Mitchell, look at yourself right now, it’s pathetic."
Dreaming this big in broad daylight—aren’t you afraid reality will be too cruel?
Saying this kind of lie, it’ll be exposed in minutes, okay?
Truly shameless!
