BXBX NOVEL Chapter 517 - Little Assistant
"Auntie, does anyone sell breakfast here?" Nadine asked weakly. She was really hungry because she had not had breakfast today.
Her uncle was very cruel to her and even Harris couldn\'t help her...
When she heard Nadine\'s way of calling her, Anya immediately said, "Don\'t call me aunt. Aiden and I divorced two years ago. Didn\'t Mrs. Hana prepare breakfast today?"
"I live at Harris\' house. My uncle doesn\'t want to see my face now so I can\'t have breakfast," Nadine\'s voice grew slower and lower.
Anya didn\'t know why Aiden didn\'t want to meet Nadine when the man had been trying to search for her before.
Anya stopped by her flower shop first and then greeted the owner. "Aunt Lanny, do you remember me?"
"Anya! You\'re back! Where are you going now?" Lanny asked. It had been a long time since she met Anya.
"I want to go to work. My friend has a tire flat. Can I leave her bicycle at your shop?"
Without thinking, Lanny immediately nodded. "Of course. Just leave it here. Tonight you can take it again. Don\'t forget to lock the bike,"
"Thank you, Auntie!" Anya thanked Lanny and Nadine immediately did the same thing.
"You are welcome. Go to work! You will be late!" Lanny waved her hand.
Anya turned and walked towards the bus stop. Meanwhile, Nadine immediately followed behind her.
"Wait for me!" Naturally, Nadine immediately took Anya\'s hand, as if they had been close friends for a long time.
Anya felt a little embarrassed. To her, Nadine was a stranger.
They had never met before, nor befriend each other. Plus, she and Aiden were divorced. She felt that her relationship with Nadine was getting more and more awkward.
Now she would go to Iris, where everyone knew that the place belonged to Aiden. If people saw her holding hands with Nadine, what would they think of her?
"Auntie, do you know the way to the Atmajaya Group\'s mall? I don\'t know where it\' exactly since I\'ve been away for years. Can you help me?" Nadine asked.
Anya frowned at the call again. Nadine was indeed Nico\'s sister. Like her brother, Nadine didn\'t want to understand her words.
Anya had said that she and Aiden were divorced and asked Nadine not to call her aunt. But the girl insisted.
"Why did you go to the mall so early in the morning?" Anya asked.
"To work," Nadine answered.
"I\'m heading there too. Come with me," Anya replied.
"Thank you!" Nadine replied cheerfully.
Anya\'s face was flat, but actually she could feel Nadine\'s cheerfulness. At least she didn\'t feel lonely on her journey.
Nadine was very talkative. Even to new people, she could get close to anyone and fit in anywhere easily.
She easily opened herself to other people, even telling about her fight with Nico when she was a child. That\'s how Anya knew that Nadine was the girl who disappeared along with Keara, not Maria\'s biological daughter.
When they arrived at their destination, Anya and Nadine got off together.
When passing the supermarket, Nadine asked Anya to stop by first. "Auntie, I want to buy bread first. Do you also want one?"
"You only eat bread for your breakfast?" Anya asked.
"I have no money. I\'m only allowed 20 thousand a day. So I can only buy bread," as she said it, Nadine pursed her lips sadly.
Aiden really was cruel. He only gave 20 thousand for Nadine.
Nadine worked overtime and didn\'t have time to go home by bus. How did she get home? On foot?
"Do you want one, auntie?" Nadine turned and looked at Anya with a smile. "This bread costs 10 thousand. I have 20 thousand, so I can buy two."
Anya shook her head. "Thank you. But I\'ve had breakfast. You buy it."
Nadine finally bought the bread and two boxes of milk.
"Auntie, this is for you!" Nadine stuck a straw in the milk box and gave it to Anya.
Seeing her sincere smile, Anya couldn\'t refuse it. Her heart felt touched. Seeing Nadine made her think of Nico. "Thank you."
"Let\'s go over there and sit down for a bit. After that, we can walk again," Nadine took Anya\'s hand and sat on a stool near the window.
Anya looked at the clock. It was still very early in the morning, so she decided to accompany Nadine.
She saw the girl beside her calmly enjoying her humble meal.
"Nadine, I thought I saw the wrong person! It really is you!" Keara suddenly appeared before them.
Anya\'s face immediately changed when she saw Keara.
"Good morning, Sis Keara!" Nadine waved her hand and greeted Keara cheerfully.
"How can you be with her?" Keara glanced at Anya sarcastically, hatred flashed from her eyes.
"I met her in the middle of the road. From today on I will be working at Iris, as an assistant!" Nadine said with a smile.
Keara looked towards Anya. She remembered that Anya was the head parfumeur at Iris. If Nadine worked at Iris to become an assistant, didn\'t that mean she would become Anya\'s assistant?
Anya was also shocked to hear that. She did not know that Nadine worked at Iris, the same place as her.
"Nadine, if you want to learn to make perfume, just work with me," Keara said.
"Sis, I\'ll be late. Let\'s talk again next time when I\'m not busy," Nadine immediately took Anya\'s hand and said, "Auntie, let\'s go,"
Anya did not say a word until she left the place.
"Auntie, you have to be careful with Keara," Nadine said.
Anya knew very well that Nadine\'s disappearance had something to do with Keara. Apparently, her suspicion was correct.
"I\'ll be careful. Thank you for reminding me," Anya replied.
"Auntie, why don\'t you ask me who will be my boss in Iris later?" Nadine smiled mischievously. Her expression looked like a little fox, just like her older brother, Nico.
"Looks like I don\'t need to guess. You will definitely become my assistant. Did Harris arrange it?" Anya knew Aiden was very busy and the one to deal with trivial matters must be Harris.
"Auntie, you are very smart. Harris suggested to my uncle that I should work for you. But he also suggested giving me an allowance of 20 thousand per day," Nadine said helplessly.
Anya stroked Nadine\'s head gently. "Don\'t be sad, let\'s just go to work."
Nadine felt happy to win over Anya\'s heart. Indeed, her main goal was to approach Anya so that she would forgive her uncle.
However, she did not expect Anya to be such a good woman.
Nadine could also feel her sincerity and warmth, so she really liked her aunt!
…
On her first day at work, Nadine was in charge of the special perfume making area, the area where Anya used to work. Currently, she was in charge of the tasks that Anya previously handled.
From morning, Anya locked herself in the perfume room and didn\'t come out at all.
But the news that Anya returning to work at Iris had spread throughout the city.
Not only did Keara know, Imel also heard it.
During the day, Harris came specifically to pick up Anya, causing a fuss.
"Anya, are you and Aiden back together?" Mila stopped Anya when she was about to leave.
