Chapter 180 Take Action
If the mastermind truly hid behind Jacob, his secretary would be the biggest problem.
Avery hoped to see some clues on their faces, but both of them had cold and decisive personalities. They simply greeted her briefly and immersed themselves in their work.
Avery touched her wrist. Could it be that she was wrong?
She wasn't in a hurry either. Starting with Juniper, Jacob's secretary, Avery moved closer to her.
Juniper's attitude towards her was neither warm nor dismissive. Avery spent nearly two hours interacting with everyone but didn't notice anything suspicious.
They worked until 9 PM, and John finally gave permission for everyone to leave.
As soon as Calliope finished work, her stiff face instantly broke into a smile. She rubbed her waist and made a phone call to a friend. It seemed like she was going to a bar and asked someone to reserve a table for her.
As Avery observed Calliope looking at her, Calliope raised her chin lightly and said, "Join us? There's a newly opened bar with lots of handsome guys. Let me treat you."
Avery didn't expect Calliope to be so friendly and quickly waved her hand. "No need; I still have some documents to organize. I haven't even memorized Mr. Hill's preferences yet."
Calliope withdrew her gaze from Avery's face and replied, "Alright then, another time."
In the blink of an eye, Calliope swiftly left, leaving the room in a hurry. Asher sighed and explained to Avery, "Stay away from her. Every day, she's either flirting with young, handsome guys or older men. Don't let her influence you."
Avery smiled awkwardly and shifted her gaze to Juniper's face.
Juniper's face wasn't remarkable, a complete contrast to Calliope's enchanting appearance.
She was like the diligent student in class who wore glasses and had average looks but always ranked in the top ten academically.
Juniper calmly packed up her things in an orderly manner. Her desk was neatly arranged, almost as if she had OCD. Each document had to be perfectly organized.
Sensing Avery's gaze, Juniper looked up. Behind her glasses, their eyes met. She spoke in a flat tone, devoid of any emotion.
