Luca was in a stun and stared at her in disbelief.

Keira casually said, “I said, it was sent to your inbox last Friday.”

The others immediately echoed.

“Exactly. You don’t actually need to work; you’re just going to read books!”

“Hurry up and go. Don’t waste our time!”

“Our team leader is still waiting for us. Would you be responsible if we were late?”

Keira frowned, detecting the hostility of the group.
