Married a Secret Billionaire -
Chapter 687
How capable could a pregnant woman be? It would be a piece of cake to catch her mistake!
Ava calmed down and chuckled. "That's right, mom. We have time! Do you think everything will always go her way?"
"What are you trying to do?" Hannah raised her eyebrows. "Ava, don't stir anything with her at this time. Do you hear me? The more you show your obedience, the lower Zephyr and Cordelia's guard against you will be. Then-"
"Okay, I know!" Ava interrupted her.
Her mother had always been too cautious.
However, she did not think the same.
If she did not show Cordelia her power from the beginning, her life would be tough!
A few days later, Cordelia arrived on time at the Baker Group's top-floor meeting room.
It was the regular meeting for the clothing project. At the same time, it was a meet-and-greet with the entire team.
She was pumped up when she thought about how busy she would be in the next few months. She could not help but smile instinctively as she caressed her belly. Her baby felt her joy too. He was kicking to cheer for her.
"Don't worry. I won't exhaust myself," she whispered. "Be good in there. I'll give you a successful project as your gift a few months later, okay?"
"Ma'am, don't just stand there." Fan came from behind and chuckled at her. "The meeting is starting. Come in!"
Cordelia nodded. She walked into the meeting room in a carefree manner.
This was the biggest meeting room in the entire Baker Group. The decoration was grand.
All of the partners' representatives had arrived. There were a couple of famous fashion designers too.
Fan handed the documents to her and introduced softly, "Those are the representatives of the brands, while this side is our people... Sit in the middle, ma'am. There's a placement card on the table. Your title is the General Manager..."
Cordelia lifted his eyes to look.
'In the middle?'
She frowned. Could it be that there was a misunderstanding? The placement card with "General Manager" written on it was placed in the far corner.
Fan realized something was wrong too. Just when she was going to move the card, Cordelia stopped her.
"Who set up the meeting room?"
"The Administration Department..." Fan suddenly recalled. "Oh yeah, Miss Ava was here too! She came here to set up as the Head of Administration!"
Cordelia was annoyed. "Head of Administration?"
"Mm-hmm, it happened a few days ago." Fan explained, "We've no idea what Mrs. Hannah did that Mr. Baker Sr. asked Madam Baker to give Miss Ava a position, even if it's just a sinecure... There, that's how she got the position!"
'So, that was what happened!'
"So, it was Ava who was responsible for the set-up?"
"Yes, it was her."
"Great." Cordelia smirked.
Fan was confused. "Ma'am, what are you trying to do?"
"What else can I do?" Cordelia said flatly before walking to the left corner. "Of course, I'm going to sit where my placement card is!"
"But ma'am, this isn't your seat..."
"This is exactly my seat!" She smiled and sat down.
At that moment, most of the participants had arrived. The meeting was starting.
However, the people were shocked to find that the General Manager who was supposed to host the meeting was sitting in the far corner.
"Did someone arrange that seat to embarrass her?"
The people began to whisper to each other.
Cordelia was the only one who looked calm as she watched everything happening before her.
She remained silent, so the meeting could not start. Some people were impatient.
Ava smiled and cleared her throat. She walked to Cordelia in a pretentious manner.
"Cousin-in-law, you should start the meeting. It's not good to let them wait, right?
"Cousin-in-law? Cousin-in-law?"
She called out to her a few times, but it was as if Cordelia did not hear her.
"Cousin-in-law!"
Cordelia only lifted her eyes up slowly when Ava raised her voice, getting everyone's attention. She had a cryptic smile on her face. "Are you calling me, Miss Ava?"
