The manager's face turned pale when he heard Jasper call him over.
As soon as he heard footsteps, he quickly looked up. "Master Franklin, Isla..."
Franklin glanced over at Isla, who was sitting in her seat and crying softly.
Aviana pleaded with a pained expression, "Master Franklin, Isla's leg got injured quite severely. Can't
you postpone her punishment?"
Aviana was a high-ranking member of the Crown Techs Group and had done well for herself.
Adriel didn't want to embarrass Aviana, but he couldn't speak up for her, since Isla was not his
subordinate but Franklin's.
He could only say, "Sibbie's kick was very hard. Sibbie, what do you think?"
Sylvia gave a cold glance at Isla and said, "She can take a rest today, but she needs to work there
tomorrow."
Franklin sighed and turned to the manager. "You can leave now."
The manager breathed a sigh of relief and left as fast as possible.
Isla wiped away her tears and said to Sylvia, "I'm sorry, Miss Andrews; it's all my fault. I hope you can
forgive me."
After Franklin and Sylvia left earlier on, she had been thinking about what she should do next secretly.
She knew that if she offended Sylvia too much, Franklin would dislike her even more than before, so
she couldn't let herself lose control because of Sylvia's actions towards her.
She needed to make long-term plans instead of acting impulsively like before.
The dishes were served by now; Sylvia sat back down in her original seat, picking up a chicken leg and
saying coldly, "I accept your apology but I won't forgive you."
"You..." Isla wanted to get angry again but quickly regained composure. "It's okay; I will make it up to
you later on, so that you know what kind of person I am."
"I don't need or want to know anything about you," replied Sylvia coldly while serving some beef for
Franklin.
Aviana felt like she had lost all dignity due to Isla's behaviors today.
She was almost on the verge of an emotional breakdown.
Especially when Adriel was present, her niece made mistakes repeatedly and made her lose face sonovelbin
much.
She could no longer restrain herself from scolding her niece harshly, "Why are you so childish? I
thought you would grow mature after you became MI6 team leader! But look at what you've done
today! You really embarrass and disappoint me so much!"
Aviana then looked at Sylvia. "Miss Andrews, I'm sorry. My family spoiled her too much, making her
think she's the best and there's no one better than her."
"Well, she has a long way to go," Sylvia replied flatly.
Adriel was uncomfortable with the tense atmosphere caused by the aunt and niece.
He had something he wanted to discuss with Sylvia, so he spoke up softly. "Sibbie, about that new chip
I mentioned earlier. Do you have time to come by the company and guide them on finalizing the chip
design and program?"
Aviana was shocked when she heard Adriel's request. Crown Techs Group was planning to update its
old chip with faster one that had stronger memory capabilities. If they succeeded in updating it,
computer processing speeds would increase several times over.
However, this type of chip had not been put into production yet because it still needed testing before
being finalized.
After hearing Adriel's pleading tone of voice, Aviana understood that whether the chip could be
finalized was up to Sylvia!
She widened her eyes in shock as if seeing a genius before her very eyes.
If Sylvia were able to finalize the chip design, Crown Techs Group would be able produce large
quantities of new chips for sale, which meant huge profits!
But if it couldn't be finalized, then their technology wasn't advanced enough yet, which meant more
work needed for improvement.
Either way though, it seemed like they couldn't do without Sylvia...
Aviana couldn't help but speak up again, "Miss Andrews, you're so talented! Have you ever considered
taking on an apprentice?"
Sylvia raised an eyebrow, "Why should I take on an apprentice?"
"Your skills are amazing! If you're willing to teach someone else your knowledge, surely that would
contribute greatly to our entire empire's computer technology development!"
Aviana's tone of voice was very dramatic. "How about teaching my niece Isla? She is young but smart."
"Ms. Saunders, do you take me as an idiot? Have you forgotten what you niece just did?" Sylvia set
down her fork, her expression icy.
