A sharp glint flowed from the depths of her eyes.
Harvey chuckled twice. “You're quite protective of him. All right, I'll stop laughing. Okay?”
Ashlyn pursed her lips, but her hands did not stop moving.
It seemed as though nothing could affect her at all.
Her movements were swift. Approximately ten minutes later, she pressed the enter key, and her gaze casually fell on Sabrina. “Done. Ms. Gray, for your review, please.”
A flicker of jealousy crossed Sabrina's beautiful face, followed by a surge of indescribable emotions within her heart.
She tried to keep a straight face, but her facial muscles were trembling. She was almost at a loss for words.
Her inner emotions were intense, akin to a ferocious beast yearning to break free from its cage and relieve its anger.
“How could it be so fast...” Despair was evident in Sabrina's eyes as Ashlyn captured everyone's attention and stole her limelight within Section Six.
What right does she have to deserve this attention?
“You mean fixing your system requires a lot of time?” Ashlyn glanced at her without any change in expression, then stood up directly.
“Old-timer, I'm hungry. Shall we go eat?”
Harvey laughed heartily and said, “Let's go! I've heard the restaurant at Section Six is extraordinary, offering all kinds of delicacies. The head chef here and the one at The Peacock learned from the same master.”
And so, both of them headed outside.
Lucas scanned across the crowd, who were stunned by Ashlyn's performance. “Once the wrap-up is done, everyone should head to the restaurant for a meal.”
“Yes, Mr. Nolan.”
“Okay!”
Sabrina was feeling upset inside, but she did not express it at all.
Upon reaching the restaurant, the group went straight up to the private room on the second floor.
Ashlyn was seated between Harvey and Lucas, much like a star surrounded by her admirers. On the other side of Harvey was Yvette, and next to her was Sabrina.
Sabrina initially wanted to sit on the left side of Lucas, but Spencer beat her to it.
She was infuriated, but she could not do anything. Hence, she sat down with a sheepish smile.
