Chapter 12 Fear Of The Dark

Just as Annabel was getting ready to leave, she got a call from Nina. "How long do you need to finish your task?"

"I'm done," Annabel replied.

"What? Did you crosscheck everything? Are you a hundred percent sure that there is no mistake?"

Nina didn't expect her to finish it so soon.

"Yes, I'm very sure. If you have nothing else to say, I'll hang up now. I'm going home," Annabel said impatiently.

"Wait! That's not all. You can't get off work now!" Nina raised her voice all of a sudden.

"Why?" Annabel asked, stopping at the door.

"Well, the thing is I just received a call. There's another document that must be inputted into the system. I'm on my way with it. Just wait there." "Just send it to me via email. I can't wait for you to come over at this time."

"No, it's complicated. You haven't handled this kind of work before. If you make a mistake, we will be in big trouble. Wait for me! Why are you whining like a spoiled child? As an employee of such a prestigious company, you should be prepared to work overtime. I'm already home, but I have no problem with coming back just to make sure everything is set for tomorrow!"
