Chapter 170 Nancy offered a subtle smile and a nod. She understood the implication, but being Brian's personal secretary, she felt no obligation to assist a new employee from the human resources department.

Ava observed her with a plain and unremarkable response, leaving her with the distinct impression that her efforts were akin to striking a punch into soft, yielding cotton.

She pondered what might be the issue with Natal, as Natal seemed unable to grasp her underlying message.

Despite clearly expressing their familial connection to Mr. Francis, Natal showed a surprising lack of sensitivity by not trying to build a positive relationship with her.

Ava was very dissatisfied. She crossed her arms and looked at her arrogantly. “Ms. Patel, go buya cup of coffee. | want caramel macchiato iced coffee.” Nancy's expression was calm as she looked at her and smiled without saying anything.

Ava raised her eyebrows and tumed to look at Mr. Brown. “Where is my desk?” That arrogant demeanor, as if she were the leader herself.

Mr. Brown knew that she had a powerful background and did not dare to offend her easily. He personally brought her to her desk and arranged for a female colleague to take her.

She sat on the chair and dozed off in front of the computer. Her female colleague chattered on as she taught her how to do the report.

Ava covered her ears and looked at her irritably. “Hey, do you really think I'm here to do odd jobs? It’s just for show.” The female colleague’s face paled. “Well, you can read it for yourself.” Ava glanced at the ton her watch. It was already noon, and Nancy hadn't brought her coffee yet. Ava stretched lazily, stood up from her chair, grabbed a set of documents, and headed upstairs. When she arrived at Nancy's workstation, she found her engrossed in her own tasks, completely neglecting to get her the coffee she had expected.

She walked up to her angrily. “Ms. Patel, | asked you to buycoffee this morning. Why didn’t you go? Did you forget?” Nancy looked up at her and smiled. “I'm sorry, Miss Adkins. I'm Mr. Francis’s secretary. I'm only in charge of Mr.

Francis’s matters.” Ava was surprised. Although her initial impulse was to reprimand Nancy, she refrained from doing so after sconsideration. It appeared that Nancy was still not paying attention to her requests.

Nancy looked at her calmly. Ava took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart. She smiled at her and said, “It's okay. It seems that you're busy.” She glanced at Brian's office and walked in.

Nancy guessed that she must have gone to complain, but she believed that Mr. Francis would not condone an unreasonable person like Ava.

Brian was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and making a call. Ava could only wait silently at the side.

1/2 Chapter 170 From overhearing his phone conversation, it seems there's an urgent project underway.

She seemed to be going on a business trip in the afternoon.

After hanging up. Brian glanced at Ava and asked casually, “Why are you here?” Ava opened her mouth to speak, just managing to utter “Ms. Patel.” She heard Brian pick up the phone on the desk. He instructed, “Ms. Patel, you need to be in Silrow City by 5 PM this afternoon. Please book a suitable flight immediately.” After hanging up, he looked at Ava. “What's the matter?” Ava rolled his eyes and quickly said, “It’s nothing. The manager is looking for me. I'll go down first.” He walked out of the office and went to Nancy's office. He glanced at it and saw that she was indeed booking a plane ticket on the computer. He walked over and handed the document in his hand to her. “These are the documents for Mr. Francis’s business trip this afternoon. Make two copies.” Nancy looked up at her suspiciously.
