Chapter 618

The manager's face turned pale when he heard Jasper call him over.

As soon as he heard footsteps, he quickly looked up. "Master Franklin,

Isla...”

Franklin glanced over at Isla, who was sitting in her seat and crying

softly.

Aviana pleaded with a pained expression, "Master Franklin, Isla's leg

got injured quite severely. Can't you postpone her punishment?"

Aviana was a high-ranking member of the Crown Techs Group and had

done well for herself.

Adriel didn't want to embarrass Aviana, but he couldn't speak up for

her, since Isla was not his subordinate but Franklin's.

He could only say, "Sibbie's kick was very hard. Sibbie, what do you

think?"

Sylvia gave a cold glance at Isla and said, "She can take a rest today,

but she needs to work there tomorrow."

Franklin sighed and turned to the manager. "You can leave now."

The manager breathed a sigh of relief and left as fast as possible.

Isla wiped away her tears and said to Sylvia, "I'm sorry, Miss Andrews;

it's all my fault. I hope you can forgive me."

After Franklin and Sylvia left earlier on, she had been thinking about

what she should do next secretly.

She knew that if she offended Sylvia too much, Franklin would dislike

her even more than before, so she couldn't let herself lose control

because of Sylvia's actions towards her.

She needed to make long-term plans instead of acting impulsively like

before.

The dishes were served by now; Sylvia sat back down in her original

seat, picking up a chicken leg and saying coldly, “I accept your apology

but I won't forgive you."

"You..." Isla wanted to get angry again but quickly regained composure.

“It's okay; I will make it up to you later on, so that you know what kind of

person I am."

“I don't need or want to know anything about you," replied Sylvia coldly

while serving some beef for Franklin.

Aviana felt like she had lost all dignity due to Isla's behaviors today.

She was almost on the verge of an emotional breakdown.

Especially when Adriel was present, her niece made mistakes

repeatedly and made her lose face so much.

She could no longer restrain herself from scolding her niece harshly,

"Why are you so childish? I thought you would grow mature after you

became MI6 team leader! But look at what you've done today! You

really embarrass and disappoint me so much!"

Aviana then looked at Sylvia. “Miss Andrews, I'm sorry. My family

spoiled her too much, making her think she's the best and there's no

one better than her."

"Well, she has a long way to go," Sylvia replied flatly.

Adriel was uncomfortable with the tense atmosphere caused by the

aunt and niece.

He had something he wanted to discuss with Sylvia, so he spoke up

softly. "Sibbie, about that new chip I mentioned earlier. Do you have

time to come by the company and guide them on finalizing the chip

design and program?"

Aviana was shocked when she heard Adriel's request. Crown Techs

Group was planning to update its old chip with faster one that had

stronger memory capabilities. If they succeeded in updating it,

computer processing speeds would increase several times over.

However, this type of chip had not been put into production yet because

it still needed testing before being finalized.

After hearing Adriel's pleading tone of voice, Aviana understood that

whether the chip could be finalized was up to Sylvia!

She widened her eyes in shock as if seeing a genius before her very

eyes.

If Sylvia were able to finalize the chip design, Crown Techs Group

would be able produce large quantities of new chips for sale, which

meant huge profits!

But if it couldn't be finalized, then their technology wasn't advanced

enough yet, which meant more work needed for improvement.

Either way though, it seemed like they couldn't do without Sylvia...

Aviana couldn't help but speak up again, "Miss Andrews, you're so

talented! Have you ever considered taking on an apprentice?"

Sylvia raised an eyebrow, "Why should I take on an apprentice?"

“Your skills are amazing! If you're willing to teach someone else your

knowledge, surely that would contribute greatly to our entire empire's

computer technology development!"

Aviana's tone of voice was very dramatic. "How about teaching my

niece Isla? She is young but smart.”

"Ms. Saunders, do you take me as an idiot? Have you forgotten what

you niece just did?" Sylvia set down her fork, her expression icy.
