Chapter 142
Anna Ross frowned deeply.
She picked up the document and glanced at it.
Her tone was cold. "I don't want to go. Can I refuse?"
She only wanted to focus on her own work.
She had no interest in participating in anything else.
Adrian Sinclair seemed to have expected this.
His expression remained unchanged.
He spoke slowly and deliberately. "No."
"Although you are my Executive Assistant,"
"these matters are crucial for the company's development."
"You have no valid reason to refuse."
He paused briefly.
Then he added, "You just joined the company."
"This is the time to prove yourself."
"Do well. Don't embarrass me."
After speaking, he lowered his head.
He continued handling the work on his desk.
Anna shot him an annoyed glare.
She turned to leave the office.
His voice suddenly came from behind her. "By the way,"
"do you know how to get to the Creative Department?"
Anna was speechless.
If she didn't even know that,
her time working here would have been wasted.
Was he treating her like a fool?
She ignored his question.
She went straight to her desk to get her things.
She headed directly to the Creative Department.
She wandered around the Creative Department for a while.
She couldn't see Chloe Valentine anywhere.
She wasn't familiar with this area.
She also didn't have her own workstation here.
She could only wait in the office.
"This proposal can be kept."
After waiting for some time,
conversation could be heard outside the door.
Anna looked up.
Chloe seemed to have just finished a meeting.
She showed a meaningful smile when she saw Anna.
She first dismissed the people around her.
She walked over with a smile. "Executive Assistant Ross."
"I thought Adrian wouldn't have the heart to let you come."
Hearing her prickly tone,
Anna felt uncomfortable.
But for the sake of work, she held back.
She asked softly, "What do you need me to do?"
She saw that there were plenty of people here.
She really couldn't understand why she specifically had to be called.
Especially using the excuse of being short-handed.
Chloe looked around.
She said with a smile, "Why don't you clean the office first?"
"Thank you."
After speaking, she sat down at her desk.
She started looking at her computer.
Anna glanced around.
The office was clearly already very clean.
And this was definitely not part of her job.
She immediately understood.
Chloe called her here just to humiliate her.
"Director Valentine,"
"This is not within my job scope."
"If there's no actual work,"
"I'll head back first."
She spoke without subservience or arrogance.
She prepared to leave.
Surprise flashed in Chloe's eyes.
She didn't expect Anna to have such backbone.
She was seething with hatred inside.
But she was afraid Anna would go back and complain.
She had to suppress her anger.
She stood up and grabbed Anna's arm.
Her tone softened. "Executive Assistant Ross,"
"I was too busy earlier and forgot."
"Please don't mind."
"How about this,"
"Help me verify the information in this proposal."
Anna also didn't want to cause trouble.
She nodded and agreed.
She sat down at another spot in the office.
She carefully verified the information.
When it was time to get off work,
Chloe didn't cause any more trouble.
She directly let Anna leave.
Anna stretched lazily.
Even though she had been very resistant before,
it seemed pretty good now.
She walked with light steps.
She had just left the Creative Department,
when she ran into Adrian Sinclair walking towards her.
