Even as she approached and placed the box on the table, “Lydia, this is a gift I got for you.”
Lydia looked up, pushed her glasses up with her hand, and said sternly, “Did you come to Sterling Corporation just to waste time on this kind of thing?”
“Oh, Aveline, don’t mind her, that’s just her personality, don’t take it to heart,” Edith said to Aveline, winking at her.
“I’ll leave the planning to Assistant Hill, don’t worry,” Aveline said to Edith.
“Alright, thank you. We won’t disturb you then,” Aveline’s gaze swept past Lydia.
Lydia continued to focus on her work, seemingly engrossed in it.
In the office, Edith and Lydia had completely opposite personalities. If there was a problem, which
one of them would it be?
Aveline believed that a fox would never be able to hide its tail.
If she didn’t take action, the other party wouldn’t be able to hold back either.
She embedded a tracker in the brooch, taking the initiative into her own hands this time.
“Bang.”
Aveline was lost in thought and didn’t expect anyone to be on this quiet floor, causing her to bump
into someone’s arms.
A familiar voice sounded above her head, “How old are you that you don’t watch where you’re
going?”
Aveline quickly stepped back from his embrace. She thought Alexander would be in the office, who would have guessed he would appear like a ghost?
“Sorry, Mr. Sterling, I have something to attend to. I’ll leave first.”

She hurriedly covered her mouth and entered the elevator.
Alexander didn’t miss her smile. If he hadn’t contacted her in the past two days, she would really keep her distance from him, as if she wanted to draw a clear boundary.
He had noticed Aveline coming up early in the morning and deliberately waited here to create a
chance encounter.
She looked so happy when she saw the two of them. But when she saw him, it was as if she had seen
a ghost?
Alexander’s face turned serious. “Check why she came up.”
“Yes, Mr. Sterling.”
Soon, Jordan had an answer and handed the plan to Alexander.
Alexander glanced at it and threw it out, “What kind of rubbish is this? Call the person in charge
here.”
With a loud thud on the table, which startled the cleaner wiping the bookshelf in front, Aveline had just returned to Team C, and the discussions came to a halt.
Fiona smiled, “Aveline, thank you so much.”
“It’s nothing, just a small favor.”
Not long after she sat down, Lilith came out angrily, “Who submitted the plan?”
Before Aveline could speak, Fiona, sensing something was wrong, quickly shifted the blame, “It’s Aveline, she insisted on showing her face in the secretary’s office. Team leader, what’s wrong?”
Lilith glared at Aveline, “What did you say in front of the president? Why did Mr. Sterling get so angry and ask me to go up and inquire?”
