Cordelia spoke softly, but each sentence hit the nail right on the head. Not only had she cleaned herself of any blame, but she also tossed the problem back to Ava.
Ava trembled slightly. Who said that pregnant women had baby brains?
Not only did Cordelia not have a baby brain, but her tongue was also sharper than a blade. Was her baby a debater!?
Ava could not help the lurch of her heart when she looked up and met Cordelia’s cryptic gaze. She forced a smile.
“Cordelia, heh… Are you joking?”
“Am I?” Cordelia smiled. “I hope I’m thinking too much into this.”
“Well… since you’re so merciful, they’re forgiven this time!” Ava quickly went up to hook arms with Cordelia intimately and eyed the three employees. “Alright, Cordelia’s not blaming you. Go back!”
“Hold on.” Cordelia’s voice was cold.
She turned to Ava with a smile and pushed her hand off.
“Ah, I have something I didn’t get to inform you in time, Ava. I’ll just announce it here.”
Ava gulped. “What is it?”
Cordelia spoke seriously. “My position in Imperial Media in Centrolis is Madam Baker’s senior assistant. Now that I’m here, my corresponding position will be the CEO’s assistant.
“Madam Baker’s understanding of my pregnancy and gave me three months off, but I’m canceling it today!”
Ava was alarmed. “You… What’s the meaning of this?”
“It means…” Cordelia smirked looking into her eyes. “As the CEO’s assistant, I’m calling for an HR department meeting to discuss the transfer of these women!”
