Female Novel
Chapter 80
Fortunately, I had gotten up early and managed to reach the company on time. As soon as I stepped
into the elevator, I met Austin. Lady Fate really had her way of bringing people who hated each other
together.
"Good morning, Director Reid!" Austin said ambiguously, "What's wrong? The thunderstorm was pretty
terrible last night, I take it that Hendrix was not there to accompany you?"
Spitefully, he added, "You're right. Andrea is afraid of thunder. Every time the thunder strikes, Hendrix
would accompany her. The storm last night was so bad that she would have been frightened within an
inch of her life. That was why Hendrix wouldn't let her sleep alone."
I looked down at the pearls adorning my shoes and choked back a laugh. So, it seemed that Hendrix
had stopped what he was doing last night because he was worried about Andrea!
That's right. For someone as timid as her, given the situation last night, she wouldn't have been able to
sleep at all if she were to be left alone.
I refrained from criticizing Austin because he had a point.
In fact, the unloved one was me. In a love triangle, it is said that the legitimate couple is the pair who
loved each other, and the left is the extra one.
"Hey!" Austin nudged me with his elbow and looked
at me. "Why are you in a daze? Are you even listening to me?"
As I glanced sideways at him, I calmed down. Staring directly at him, I replied, "I heard you loud and
clear. They are a match made in heaven!"
As soon as the elevator doors opened, I got off.
I heard Austin's stern voice from behind. "Arianna, are you out of your mind?"
As I entered the office, Kelsey was waiting for me with a stack of documents. When she saw me, she
lay them before me and said, "Miss Reid, all of these documents need to be signed. Do sign them
quickly as Brilliant Audit has begun their work. They should be finishing the audit for the Ucreburynovelbin
accounts in two days. After that, they will be moving on to other provinces. As for Shelley Group,
auditing has not begun yet but the people from Alford Audit will arrive today."
I nodded and examined the documents. As I signed them, I said, "Do keep an extra eye on the finance
department of Roberts Group. If you see anything weird, come to me immediately. Also, follow up with
Advancer Tech as well. They can begin operations whenever they are ready."
She nodded and waited quietly for me to finish signing the documents.
I hadn't been in a good mood for days, and I didn't sleep well last night. After going through several
copies of the documents, I felt nauseous.
Looking at the remaining documents, I said to Kelsey, "You can return to your duties. I'll send the
documents over to you after I'm done."
She smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll wait. I have to pass them to Alford Audit in a bit and then start work
on the project."
I remained silent at her words and continued signing the documents. I was developing a migraine, so I
quickly signed the rest of the documents without scrutinizing them. I handed them to Kelsey and said,
"Go ahead."
Seeing that I was in a terrible state, Kelsey asked me worriedly, "Miss Reid, are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
It wasn't my first headache anyway.
She wouldn't be of much help anyway, so Kelsey took the documents and went on about her business.
I picked up my phone to ring Josiah up.
Coincidentally, he just happened to call me.
"The matter of Roberts Group has been settled. Are you going on a business trip soon?" Josiah spoke
before I could open my mouth.
I nodded and replied, "Yes." While rubbing my forehead, I said somewhat irritably, "Recently, I've been
feeling a little dizzy, and I still suffer from the occasional headache. Is that normal during pregnancy?"
