Nia Mitchell was startled, but she had been prepared a long time ago.

There was no way to get off in some remote place, being seen was bound to happen sooner or later.

She just didn’t expect this day to come so soon.

"Yes."

She frankly admitted to this matter and continued organizing the stack of papers in front of her after speaking.

She placed those that needed signing together, those that needed copying together.

Since she was quite familiar with Star Media, she sorted the documents needing signatures according to the department on each floor.

"You actually dare to admit it, I really underestimated you."

Hazel Quartz was instantly full of disdain, such a mistress was bound to face retribution sooner or later.

"Why wouldn’t I dare to admit it? Hazel, what is your intention in asking me these questions?"

The two were at most former friends.

Clearly not even as close as strangers, what right did she have to ask these questions?

Imagine a random stranger on the main street stopping you to ask personal questions, would you answer her?

No!

"I’m just concerned about you."

"I don’t think I need your concern."

After saying that, she immediately took those documents and left the Secretary Department.

In the morning, it’s relatively easier to find those manager-level people.

Because she was familiar, it didn’t take much time; everything that needed signing was already signed.

Then came the copying.

Everyone expected her to be busy until ten o’clock, but unexpectedly, Nia appeared in the Secretary Department a little after nine.

"It’s all done."

Nia Mitchell placed the documents well and then sat at her position.

Inside the office room, there was silence. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Nia Mitchell: ......

Why does this feel a bit unrealistic?

Why is it so quiet?

Shouldn’t be, right?

Could something have happened while she wasn’t around?

Obviously, no one was going to answer this question, so she sat there flipping through the documents in her hand.

Before long, the desk phone of Head Secretary Hazel Quartz rang.

"Hello."

Hazel furrowed her brows.

"Have Nia Mitchell come in for a bit."

On the other end was the voice of Edbert.

"Alright."

After hanging up, though unwilling, Hazel still followed Edbert’s orders.

"Nia Mitchell, CEO wants to see you."

Nia was shocked, caught off guard.

Edbert wanted to see her?

Her mind raced, but she still couldn’t figure out why Edbert wanted her.

Amid many puzzled looks, Nia left the Secretary Department confused.

Upon leaving, the Secretary Department instantly erupted like a boiling pot, filled with chatter and gossip.

When Nia pushed open the grand gate to Edbert’s office room, she finally understood the meaning behind the expressions of those in the Secretary Department earlier.

What met her eyes was Maxwell Peary in a black suit.

Why was he here?

Nia Mitchell’s mouth twitched. Standing at the doorway, she didn’t know how to face the situation before her.

"Why not come over?"

Edbert saw Nia just standing there and immediately spoke.

"Oh, okay."

She unnaturally approached Edbert’s desk, her gaze occasionally landing on Maxwell sitting on the sofa.

"Why did you come to work with an injury? Why not take leave?"

It turned out the CEO was still worried about Nia’s hand injury and had decided to come to Star Media directly.
