Chapter 202 Look At Me

“Ms. Maia.” Paige greeted her and continued to keep her head down.

Maia acted like she did not know what was going on as she handed her the documents. ” What’s wrong?”

Paige just shook her head as she looked at her with red eyes, not daring to utter a word.

“Why were these documents on the floor?” Maia questioned in a seemingly calm tone. In truth, she was restraining herself from throwing these files at Tess.

Before Paige could reply, Tess interrupted eagerly. “Maia, you’re here. Why are you carrying a bag of food? Did you not have breakfast? If I’d known, I would’ve prepared your favorite food!”

“Aunt Tess, what’s going on here?” Maia questioned as she glanced at Paige who was still organizing the documents on the floor. Maia could not believe how fast her aunt could change her behavior.

“I was just upset that Paige couldn’t do her work properly, so I gave her a warning. However, she looked like she wasn’t listening, so I got slightly angry and gave her back these documents. They slipped and fell causing this mess!” Tess explained shamelessly.

Maia was flabbergasted at her brazen behavior. Paige, on the other hand, did not dare to voice her dissatisfaction and remained silent.

Without saying a word to Tess, Maia continued to help Paige with the mess and when she passed the documents back to her, she instructed quietly, “Give them to Buck”

Paige gave Maia a small nod before marching out of the office.

Tess immediately questioned Maia about what she had just said to Paige after Paige had left.
