Chapter 376 - Busy!
Chapter 376 - Busy!
"Brother Aiden, I'm going back to Indonesia next month!" Another spoiled woman's voice came over the other end of the line.
Anya felt like her head almost split up in two. Brother Aiden?
??"Good afternoon, this is the office of the president's secretary. Who am I talking to and what is the purpose of your calling?" Anya replied calmly.
"Oh. This is Jenny, Brother Aiden's cousin. Please put this call to him," a woman's voice from across the phone still sounded spoiled even though it was not Aiden she was talking to.
Although Anya felt very reluctant, this was still Aiden's cousin. She shouldn't be jealous.
As she was about to put the call to the phone on Aiden's desk, she saw Aiden coming out of the president director's office.
"Sir, there is a woman named Jenny who said that she is your cousin," Anya stopped him and gave the receiver to Aiden.
Aiden's forehead creased slightly. He remembered that her uncle, Andre, who did not have any biological children, had indeed adopted a girl as his daughter. It looked like her name was Jenny.
Aiden answered the call expressionlessly. "Aiden's speaking,"
"Brother Aiden, this is Jenny. I heard you gave my father a job. I'll be back in Indonesia soon next month and I'll be your corporate secretary," Jenny said excitedly.
"I don't need a secretary," Aiden replied coldly.
Aiden's cold response didn't seem to work at all on Jenny. The woman still replied in a spoiled tone, "But, I want to learn a lot from you!"
"I don't need a secretary and I don't want to teach anyone. If you have no other business, I'll hang up," Aiden didn't wait for Jenny's answer and immediately hung up on the call.
Anya was standing so close to Aiden that she could hear all the words Jenny was saying.
She had been a useless secretary for all these days. And suddenly, a woman volunteered to become Aiden's secretary and take her job.
"Brother Aiden?" After Aiden hung up, his gaze fell on his wife.
"She is my cousin. But I don't really know her," Aiden didn't like to explain things, but seeing Anya's expression, he took the initiative to explain his relationship with Jenny.
"Cousin? She called you Brother Aiden in a very spoiled tone!" Anya grumbled in a low voice but still loud enough for Aiden to hear it.
"Mrs. Atmajaya, do I smell jealousy?" Aiden teased her with a chuckle.
"Yes! I am jealous. Who knows if she's not your cousin. Who knows if you have a relationship. It's clear she's being affectionate with you by talking like that!" Anya scolded him.
Aiden approached Anya and held Anya's chin so that his wife looked directly at him. "You can also call me that,"
"I don't want to," Anya pouted.
Aiden laughed at his wife's jealousy. "My uncle can't have children so he spoiled Jenny a lot. When she gets home later, I won't let her act like this again,"
"Hmm…" Anya felt a lot more comfortable after hearing Aiden's words.
She didn't want anyone to call her husband with such an intimate call, not even his cousin.
Aiden was hers, her husband! Other women had no right to call him affectionately like that.
….
One week later, Anya was accustomed to her job as secretary to the president director. Actually, the job was not that difficult. She also knew the ins and outs of the company so she could find out where Aiden was.
As Aiden's special secretary, her desk was directly placed in front of the president director's office and was filled with documents and papers.
She knew Aiden was a hard worker. But she did not think that there were so many documents that she had to study every day!
Anya took a deep breath looking at the piles of paper on her table. It looked like Aiden would have to go overtime again tonight.
She walked into her husband's office and peeked inside. Aiden's desk wasn't that different from hers. The man seemed to be drowning in a pile of paper.
Meanwhile, when she opened her social media, she saw that Nico was having fun together with his friends. A national holiday was approaching soon, right at the long weekend so Nico was already planning to go on vacation with his friends.
Aiden was very busy, but Nico was going out to have fun and planning vacations!
Anya was very upset at this. How could Nico play around when Aiden had to work so hard?
Anya picked up the phone at her desk and called Harris. "Harris, Aiden is very busy, but why is Nico having so much fun? Help me think of how to help Aiden,"
Once received a call from Anya, Harris immediately approached her.
When he saw Anya's table that was full of papers, Harris frowned slightly. "Who sent all this?"
"The long weekend is coming, but the documents keep increasing. All of this comes from the secretaries' office and other departments," Anya's face looked irritated. "Do you guys want to kill someone using a pile of paper?"
"I'll look into it," Harris saw that all the documents on the table were sorted and laid out. As he examined it, his face became more and more grim.
"What is the problem?" As soon as she saw Harris's expression, Anya knew something was wrong.
"These documents are not urgent at all. The employees at the secretarial office seem increasingly rude," Harris said calmly.
Anya thought that her desire to be able to enjoy this long weekend with Aiden vanished when she saw more and more documents piled up. But it turned out that all of this was the work of secretaries who deliberately wanted to embarrass her.
Since she was the only secretary who was working directly under Aiden, the other secretaries sent all Aiden's documents to her without screening them first. They didn't care whether the document was urgent or not and let Anya accept everything.
Anya mistakenly thought that all these documents were urgent and must be finished right away. She was annoyed at Nico for being too free, while Aiden had to be busy at work. But apparently, all of this was her fault because she didn't know which documents to work on first.
Since the holiday is coming soon, they were supposed to finish the important documents first. Other documents could be completed after the holidays by Nico.
Aiden was so busy that he didn't even have time to eat. And all of this because of those secretaries!
"Is everyone bullying me on purpose just because I'm new here and don't know anything?" Anya had guessed what the real intention of those secretaries was.
"I'll teach them a lesson," Harris left with a cold face.
Not long after, the three secretaries came to bring documents from Anya's desk and said that they had to rearrange them.
Anya didn't answer and just looked at them coldly.
Once they left, Harris came back to her. "I have reprimanded all of them. Madame can take care of the important documents they send later. No need to send it to Mr. Aiden. If there is something you don't understand, you can ask me,"
"Get the secretary's office to send the documents to Nico. He's got too much free time," Anya muttered irritably.
"I'll arrange it," Harris nodded.
"What have you been working on lately?" Anya felt that she rarely saw Harris these days. That's why everyone in the secretarial office felt lazy to do their job and decided to bully Anya.
"I'm investigating Heru so I can't come to the office," Harris said.
Anya nodded at Harris' answer.
"If there is something you don't understand, ask me. If something happens like this again, you should tell me as soon as possible. The workplace can also be a battlefield," Harris said, reminding Anya.
"Don't worry. This kind of thing will not break me. Although I am not very familiar with company matters, I felt that there were too many documents during the past two days so I asked you about it. I just wanted to know if this document should be shared with Nico too. But I didn't think that I would get into trouble like this,"
Anya laughed. "Everyone in the secretary's office will hate me even more,"
