Chapter 2264

Jada Turin smiled as she worked. "You're too nice for your own good, Ms. Ingram. I'd punish Ms. Wal if I were you." Alda shook her head. "She's rotten, and that's why I'm not going to behave like her. That would tarnish my virtue!" Someone entered just as she finished, calling out to Jada, "Ms. Turin, I need your signature."

Jada turned to see that it was Aron Hampton, her former assistant who had graduated from a famous university. While he was young, he was bad with people, though Jada kept him protected since he was competent.

It was therefore surprising to see the usually proud Aron hanging his head, though it was to hide his swollen face.

"Who did you insult this time, Mr. Hampton? Who dares beat up an honored graduate from a prestigious university?" Jada teased.

While he was an employee, Aron did not find it necessary to keep his head down. Even when it was Jada, who inspired fear among the other employees, he retorted without qualms, "What's it to you?"

Jada was grinning instead of flipping out. "Come on, I was just joking! Now tell me who's so short-sighted that they'd hurt someone so important as you? Tell me, and I'll help you get payback!" Aron shook his head. "Can you? Really?"

Jada appeared annoyed at that. "Are you trying to insult me? I'm telling you, there's no one I fear!"

"Fine!" Aron snapped back. "I got into a fight with some thugs who were collecting protection money, but I lost. I'll do anything you say if you can straighten them out!"

"I'm not that interested in you. I just can't stand the behavior of certain people!" Jada shook her head and turned to Frank. "Mr. Frankton, I'll be out for a while, but I'll be back soon."
