Chapter 248 The news of Aveline getting slapped spread quickly throughout the entire department. When coupled with the fact that Alexander had assigned a project to her personally, it was the first tsomething like this had ever happened.
The astute ones among them could sense that something was amiss. Everyone knew that Aveline was personally brought in by Jordan.
Now, it seemed that her backer wasn't Jordan, but Alexander! Realizing this, the members of Team C were filled with trepidation.
No wonder Aveline defied all odds and disregarded everyone. No wonder Alexander specifically named her to handle the planning.
The company even issued a warning because of the photo incident.
All of this suddenly made sense. Aveline's support turned out to be none other than Alexander! Even if she was Alexander's lover, so what? Could Nora do anything other than slap her? At this moment, everyone was filled with fear and unease. Who would dare to compete with her for projects? They were all trying to curry favor with her.
Fiona respectfully placed the strawberries she had bought for Aveline on her desk, wearing a pleasing smile on her face.

She was the most fervent in scolding Aveline and the first to fawn over her.
Aveline glanced at her and Fiona continued, "I was blind before, Aveline, please don't treatthe sway. If there's anything you need fromin the future, feel free to ask." Aveline lazily replied, "You're blocking my light." 07:21 0 Refusing To Be His Perfect Replica. I Choose The Ae 33.4% Chapter 248 Fiona, seeing that Aveline occupied the best spot in the office with ample sunlight, clearly showed that she didn't want to engage with her.
"Sure, I'm right next to you. If you have any problems, you can cto me." Fiona tactfully retreated to her own seat, but her gaze continued to frequently shift towards Aveline.
Aveline looked at the exquisite pastries on the table but didn't refuse them. She used to love sweets.
Sweets could heal all the unhappiness in the world.
But back then, her unhappiness was just missing a perfect score by 0.5. Where did the boy she glimpsed in her childhood disappear to? A girl's worries were also simple; a scoop of ice cream could immediately cure them.
In the past two years, she rarely had regular meals, let alone sweets.
She took a spoonful, but the sweetness she remembered now felt cloying.
After just one bite, Aveline put it down.
She pushed everything aside, knowing that everyone around her wanted to get close to her, but she didn't have the tfor it.
At this moment, she finally understood that Alexander's actions were not only to test her abilities but also to announce to the world that he saw Aveline differently.
As for their relationship, whatever people wanted to think, he didn't care.
That was his backing.
Aveline chuckled softly. If she couldn't remember the things he had done to her, maybe she would still be moved.
But those hurts were like knives cutting into her, and they hadn't healed until now.

Spending twith Alexander, she had absorbed sknowledge, so a project worth several million was just right for her to practice. CEO's office, Alexander rolled up the end of his tie, once again thinking of Aveline pulling him in for a kiss.
His Adam's apple involuntarily slid, and his body, which hadn't been touched for two years, once again stirred his desire.
"Have you found out why she entered Sterling Corporation?" he asked,
Jordan respectfully stood to the side. "Madam hasn't made angy special moves in the department, but she did ΕΠ give a gift to the secretary's office." "A gift?" Jordan handed him a tie clip. "This is from Leon." Alexander glanced at the logo. It was a trendy brand, not cheap.
"She's quite generous."
"Perhaps at first, she thought she was going to work in the secretary's office, so she made good relations with everyone and giving gifts was normal." Alexander's gaze, however, fell on the small decoration protruding from the tie clip. "Open it." Jordan didn't ask further and quickly opened the decoration.
A miniature tracker fell out from the small cover, scattering on the table.
