Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 318

318 /658

At this moment, Ariana, who had just fetched two cups of water, returned.

As soon as she returned, she saw such a scene and was immediately somewhat surprised and puzzled, with no idea what had happened.

Yet seeing Ariana, Lambert's gaze softened instantly.

However, his tone towards the assistant remained cold as he said, "Didn't you hear?"

This time, Zara finally came back to her senses.

Biting her teeth with tears welling up in her eyes, she swallowed down what she had intended to say. She gave Ariana a deep glance before completely stepping out and closing the door behind her.

Ariana felt a bit like laughing, she casually asked, "What happened?"

Lambert's expression was still the same. "An assistant with rather unprofessional manners. I don't know how the Human Resources Department hired her."

Ariana looked surprised.

She seemed a bit confused, as if Lambert didn't recognize her. So, Ariana pursed her lips and intentionally said jokingly, "She is Stefan's distant cousin, don't you remember?"

Lambert really didn't know.

He furrowed his brows in thought for a moment, then responded, "Is that so?"

Ariana nodded affirmatively.

This assistant was the same woman who had stopped and lectured her that day. Later, when she learned Ariana's identity, she dared not show up again, seemingly fearing retaliation. It just so happened that at that time, Lambert's company encountered problems, and he was detained.

So Ariana was too busy and couldn't be bothered to deal with her.

Or rather, even if nothing had happened to Lambert, she wouldn't have done anything to her.

After all, this is Lambert's company.

She would never fire someone for no reason. Even if someone is to be fired, it will be done by Lambert or Stefan.

Moreover, she is Stefan's cousin, so Ariana gave Stefan some face and didn't meddle in her affairs anymore. To be honest, she almost forgot about her when she didn't show up till now.

Having heard what Ariana said, Lambert responded indifferently.

It was clear that he was not interested.

To him, it didn't matter who the assistant was. He wouldn't keep her if her professional capabilities were not up to par.

Seeing that Lambert was truly uninterested, Ariana instantly felt satisfied. She did not continue talking about the assistant. After all, they didn't have much time together, so she couldn't bear to spend it talking about others. So, she put the cup of water for Lambert on his desk and returned to the sofa.

She asked, "How much is left to deal with?"

Gazing at the file, Lambert responded, "It will take an hour, perhaps."

Ariana glanced at her watch and sighed, "That's quite a long time. Well then, you just stick it out here on your own."

Lambert: "..."

Lambert looked at Ariana pitifully and said, "Didn't you say you would accompany me all the time?"

Ariana looked at him, "You previously said that if I'm tired or sleepy, I can go back early."

Lambert: "..." He was just being polite.
