Chapter 5
After Paul parked the car, he quickly ran into the restaurant. He looks even more pathetic than his boss.
As soon as the meeting ended, he was hungry, but because he didn’t want to make his boss late for work, he tried to endure it.
His position is truly miserable, not as happy as everyone thinks, the president’s assistant and driver.
He saw that Dylan used manpower very skillfully. In Global Group, except for normal employees, all senior personnel must hold concurrent duties.
Stephen only holds two positions but complains all day long, while Lyle holds the position of deputy general director and communications director, managing entertainment, fashion, and photography.
Even though Paul is Dylan’s assistant, he still admires Lyle very much. In his heart, Lyle is like having seventy-two magical transformations.
“Hello Miss Ella, my name is Paul, I’m Mr. Dylan’s assistant. It was me who contacted you yesterday.” Paul tried to appear cheerful and introduced himself.
“Hello, I’m here both noon and afternoon.” Ella also tried to smile.
“I’m sorry for not informing you sooner, and causing you to wait.” He bowed his head to show remorse.
Dylan’s appearance made Ella feel pitiful, but Paul’s appearance made her feel funny. His eyes were like a lost dog. It seemed like he was so hungry that he was dizzy.
The night sea breeze blew in, carrying salty air, and Dylan felt his hair become sticky.
Paul kept focusing on eating. When the two people next to him raised their glasses of wine, he was busy putting meat in his mouth and when he picked up the glass of wine, everyone had already put their glasses down.
His appearance as if he had been starved for eight lifetimes made Ella laugh out loud. Thanks to her two male partners, her staff had a delicious meal.
Yesterday afternoon, she received a call from Paul, so today, she hurriedly ordered specialties for a party to welcome them. In the end, she waited for them for many hours.
After hearing that they would come here in the evening, she had to pack the dishes and bring them back to the company.
“Tomorrow I will take you two to visit the project.” Ella raised her glass of wine and said.
“I heard you say the project is very feasible, but why don’t you continue implementing it and transfer it to me?” Dylan wondered.
“Our company cannot turn capital in time, and the project is almost overdue, if it is not carried out, it will be revoked. It is not simply a money-making project but also my father’s wish when he was alive.” She explained, her voice a little sad.
Looking at Ella’s face, Dylan felt that this girl had some similarities to his mother from before. It is not easy for a woman to struggle in the business world.
“I’ve already ruined your day. If you have work tomorrow morning, just handle it first, we will wait. We will go visit the project in the afternoon.” Dylan spoke softly.
“Okay, thank you, then see you at three o’clock tomorrow afternoon.” She smiled and expressed gratitude.
Not far away, three people including Nancy, Lyle, and Kent were also eating together. Kent has a plump body and although he had planned to lose weight, when he saw the two people next to him eating deliciously, he decided to be fat one more day.
“Mr. Lyle, yesterday I heard someone at the company say that Mr. Stephen personally took photos to promote jewelry products this time.” Kent quickly drank a bowl of oyster porridge and spoke up.
“I asked him. Stephen is also a professional photographer.”
“I heard that he seems to admire Rosalind very much.” Kent chuckled.
“Really? I think he just admires Selena in the movie Bright Moonlight.” Lyle replied as he put the shrimp he had just peeled into Nancy’s bowl.
Hearing the two of them mention Rosalind, Nancy’s movements slightly paused.
At first, she was completely unaware that the movie Bright Moonlight was a collaborative project between two corporations. It wasn’t until the day Lyle sent her a photo of the main cast that she found out.
She also did not expect that Rosalind could perfectly transform into the role of Selena.
“Nancy, do you want to eat that shrimp?” Kent looked at Nancy’s cup and asked.
“This is what Lyle peeled for me, of course, I will eat it.”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Nancy, tell me the truth, writer Song is a relative of yours, right?”
“What’s wrong with you? I’m not related to her.”
After hearing what Nancy said, Kent smiled and continued asking.
“Song is female, right? You just said her, right?”
“Actually… I can’t determine Song’s gender, that person’s voice is half male, half female, I’m not sure.” She quickly answered.
“Why are you the only one able to contact Song? I’m so doubtful.”
“There is nothing suspicious. I just sent an email to that person and clearly stated Mr. Lyle’s wishes, but I didn’t expect that person to agree. It was because I persistently bothered Song that I received such results.”
Kent had just opened his mouth to ask more when Lyle stuffed a huge shrimp in with a urging word.
“Eat quickly and go back to the hotel to rest. We have to leave early tomorrow.”
After eating, the three of them returned to the hotel. Nancy entered the room, gently pushed the door open, and stepped out onto the balcony, reaching out to poke the vines that hung in front of her.
The moonlight of the winter night on the sea tonight looked so cold that it made her feel numb.
Many years have passed, neither too long nor too short, she restrained herself from looking for any news about Nathan.
However, when she saw Rosalind’s photo, she couldn’t control herself and continuously searched for all information related to Rosalind.
Rosalind is still single, if so, where did Nathan go? The data about the Southern company on the internet completely disappeared, and the old headquarters was also replaced by a luxurious coffee shop.
She wondered if it was because he didn’t marry Rosalind that the Southern company was wiped out.
