Chapter 431 - 424. The Gift is Giving
Zein didn’t waste his time. They might as well face it now so it wouldn’t weigh on her later during the mission.
"Uhh..." she chewed on her inner cheek, and then bit her lips. Just that reaction alone told Zein it didn’t go well.
Well, not that Zein expected it would go well in one try. Actually, it would be weirder if they forgive and forget in one try, considering they even kicked her out of the guild despite her prowess.
Zein shook his head at the pouting girl. "Tell me what you did while I was away," he said while opening the impending document on his desk. "My usual, Alice."
"Yes, Boss."
Senia watched the assistant go to the corner pantry and take out a case of silver needle drink. She blinked before glancing at the guide. She wondered if this was a sign of Zein trusting her or just a case of showing off.
"If you’re not going to talk, then get out," Zein said dryly. "I’m not here to babysit you; I still have a lot of work."
Senia flinched slightly when Zein patted the pile of documents on his desk slightly harder. He already didn’t like desk work, so he did not appreciate someone prolonging his time behind the desk.
"Uhh...so..." this time, Senia did not dilly-dally. She even straightened her back like a scolded schoolgirl. "So, umm....l-like you said, I tried to recall what I had been doing to others--I even made a...list."
She fiddled with her hand and peeked at Zein’s face. The blue eyes were focused on the paper in hand, but Zein still replied. "Are you going to show me?"
Senia bit her lips in embarrassment, but she did send a message to Zein’s account. The guide looked over it while drinking his silver needle, but even after he finished the concoction, the list had not ended yet. And it seemed like the girl wrote the lightest offense first--like sneering and mocking verbally--because Zein kept raising his brow higher and higher as time went by.
