“I’m sorry, there’s really no way.” The other party shook his head again.
Andrea Jones has never been good at pushing people’s buttons, and now that they’ve talked it out so far, she has to give up.
Frustrated with the jade bracelet, really want to go out. The moment I pushed open the glass door, I raised my eyes, but I bumped into a woman with outstanding temperament.
Some of them look familiar, and her eyes can’t help but linger on the other side for a while longer.
A moment later, she realized that the other party was also staring at her, she realized that she was a bit rude and looked away, “Sorry.”
Sideways, let the other party in first.
The other side just walked into the studio and everyone bowed respectfully and said hello.
Andrea Jones turned around and snapped to attention who this man was.
Before she could turn back to say hello, the other person clearly recognized her.
“This lady, is this Lewis Brown’s girlfriend?”
“Ma’am.” Andrea Jones was busy bowing in a humble and courteous manner.
“It’s rare that you remember me.” Christina Sanchez nods and smiles.
Andrea Jones smiled faintly, “I should be the one to say that, you have a good memory, ma’am.”
“What’s in this hand …” Christina Sanchez was sharp-eyed and instantly saw that she was holding something from her own family.
“Oh, it’s a jade bracelet.”
“A jade bracelet?” Christina Sanchez raised an eyebrow, “Can I see it?”
“Sure.” Without much thought, Andrea Jones handed over the item in her hand.
When she opened it, Christina Sanchez’s face was slightly shaken.
“Ma’am, do you recognize this jade bracelet?” Andrea Jones looked at the other woman’s expression inquiringly. There was always something strange about it.
Christina Sanchez laughed a little, “Naturally, I know it, it came from me.”
Andrea Jones was stunned, “You are the designer of … this jade bracelet?”
“Hmm.” Christina Sanchez closed the box without moving, looked Andrea Jones over and smiled, “This jade bracelet is transparent and exquisite, it looks good on your hand, it complements you well.”
After a pause, Christina Sanchez said, “Don’t you like this one? You don’t seem to like it very much.”
“You misunderstand, this jade bracelet is so beautiful, how can you not like it?” Andrea Jones smiled bitterly, “I just really want to inquire about the customer who bought this bracelet, but I also know that your employees here have signed a confidentiality treaty.”
“You still don’t know who the person is who gave you this bracelet?”
“… Hmm.” Andrea Jones nodded, “We haven’t really met.”
“Oh, so that’s it.” Christina Sanchez handed the brocade box back and pondered darkly before turning back to her smile, “In any case, it’s not a waste to know that you have this in your possession. However, since the other party is intent on hiding it, Miss Jones doesn’t need to bother poking around.”
“Madam said yes.” Andrea Jones carefully took her things back into her bag. Even the last hint of a clue was gone, and that was all that was left for now.
“I have business here, so I won’t keep Miss Jones.” Christina Sanchez said, her face detached.
“Excuse me.” Andrea Jones smiles lightly, nods, and says a decent goodbye.
Looking at the back of the far away, Christina Sanchez face smile closed.
So the girl that Neal Williams said he fell in love with, and never could again, was her?
Since there is already a marriage contract with the Ruan family, there must not be any more scandals with the Williams family! No one will allow it!
…
Because of the Lewis Brown case, Andrea Jones, who had been working a little, started to get busy again, and could not think about the jade bracelet.
I work for EF Financial, so I don’t dare to waste my time at work, so I have to stay up late after work to catch up. Often at 2:00 a. m., I am still in front of the computer, tapping away.
Occasionally, if you don’t understand, you will knock on the end of the phone ‘friend’.
No matter what, the other person will be very positive to give the best advice and answers.
Many days busy down, although tired, but, looking at the phone sent over again can not be exhaustive information and answers, the heart and feel much comfort. At least, there is someone to keep you company, even if they have never met.
…
A week passes.
Tomorrow is Lewis Brown’s client day, and Andrea Jones is one step ahead of him in handing over the proposal. She hadn’t even slept well during the last few days of working on the project.
In the company easily until the end of the day, she was really out of energy, originally only wanted to lie down in the compartment to rest a little, but a blink of an eye fell asleep.
Neal Williams came down with a stack of papers to find Garret Miller and passed her cubicle with a slight pause in his step. Seeing her slumped back, the coldness that had been camouflaged softened a lot in an instant.
Slow steps, approaching.
Lifting the hair on her face, she could clearly see the shadows under her eyes, which were particularly deep.
A slight frown, eyes deepening, there are complex and contradictory feelings surging.
Why is this stupid woman so desperate? Is she the only one in Garret Miller’s crew who can do anything? Now she’s off duty, and she’s stupid enough to sleep here!
Looking at that tired sleeping face, Neal Williams only vaguely felt a slight ache in his heart.
“Looking so engrossed, is it pretty?” Garret Miller popped up and made a teasing noise.
“Shut up.” Neal Williams withdrew his hand.
She was really tired and did not look like she was woken up at all.
“Could this Lewis Brown be too energetic? How reckless do you think the night should be to tire her out like this?” Looking at her, Garret Miller ‘tsked’ twice with a gangly look on his face.
Neal Williams’ face, immediately darkened. Seeing him reach out to push her, he shot out and snapped Garret Miller’s hand in place, his tone unkind, “Don’t wake her up!”
“Can’t we let her sleep here all night?”
Then, of course, you can’t.
She is very timid, if she wakes up and sees that the lights are out in the whole company, I’m afraid she will cry again in fear.
“You go first.” Glancing at her, Neal Williams said.
“You have a meeting with the client tomorrow, and you need to go over the proposal again tonight.” Garret Miller says.
“I have it in my heart to go straight to your place later.”
Garret Miller raised his eyebrows, smiled badly, and his eyes kept roaming between the two of them. Rather than say anything else, he took the information and left first.
The entire floor, for a moment, was left to the two of them.
No lights on, only the twilight from the window playing in, falling on her small face. The lines, still as soft and peaceful as ever.
The sunken eyes watched, the floating in the chest, swept through the deep eyes.
Without further thought, he bent down and picked her up straight across the room.
She seemed to wake up a little when she was moved. Neal Williams was even prepared – the girl would have jumped out of his arms with excitement.
But …
Unexpectedly, she gave a tiny wooing sound and rubbed uneasily against his chest. Suddenly stretched out her arms and wrapped them intimately around his neck.
Small face, buried in the ear. Deeply, with a kind of fondness that calls for a heartbeat.
The broken hair brushed his sensitive neck. It was as furry as that puppy, like a direct blaze to his heart.
Surprisingly itchy …
The body, stiffened, the footsteps slightly paused. Dropping his eyes, half the time just gazing at her in his arms.
Time, as if to freeze here.
…
She slept deeply.
He took her with him and kept wandering around the neighborhood where she lived. It wasn’t until twilight was about to recede that Charleen Davis’ phone call woke her up from her dream.
Holding her cell phone, she looked at the changing scenery in front of her in a daze for a while before realizing that she was sitting in a car at the moment.
When she turned her face to see the driver in the car, she instantly snapped out of it.
“How did you … me to be here?”
How did she get into his car, she really can’t remember at all.
Just dreaming, dreaming with that familiar smell, and reassuring embrace … soothing that she simply does not want to wake up.
How could I have imagined that I would see the person in my dream as soon as I opened my eyes?
The heart stirred far more than the avoidance of him.
“Garret Miller carried you up.” His tone was cold, he didn’t even move his eyes for a moment, only casting them onto the road ahead, explaining, “He was supposed to give you a ride, but he had a case to take care of.”
I see. …
So, that scent, that embrace … are not him, but Mr. Miller?
“… thanks.” Gently thanking her, Andrea Jones didn’t immediately answer her mother’s call, but simply looked out the window and said busily, “You can leave me just on the side of the road.”
It’s one stop away from the neighborhood.
He sent himself back, in case his mother saw him, it would really be impossible to explain again.
“Sure it’s down here?”
Neal Williams asked, gripping the steering wheel tightly.
“Well, it’s right here.”
Without hesitation, he flatly pulled over to the side of the road. Face, more and more ugly.
This woman, just like this, clearly want to clear with him? As soon as she woke up, she wanted to get off and get away from him!
Carrying her bag, Andrea Jones did not allow herself a moment’s hesitation and quickly pushed open the car door to get out.
After a moment’s silence, he finally returned, “Thank you, Mr. Williams.”
attitude, deliberately distant.
Damn it!
Neal Williams wanted to curse, but instead, the opening was a colder grunt and a cooler tone, “No need. I was just asked by Garret Miller to thank him for being nice.”
So …
Does the implication mean that if Garret Miller hadn’t entrusted him, he wouldn’t have been the good guy at all?
Andrea Jones pursed her lips, and without waiting for her to say anything else, the Hummer had already sped off.
Looking at the rear of the car, Andrea Jones heaved a sigh of relief, but could not exhale the gloom gathered in his heart.
Garret Miller in his apartment.
Neal Williams was familiar with the process and poured himself a glass of wine before going to sit down on the couch.
“What? Escorting a beautiful woman to her home and playing melancholy?” Garret Miller teased as he tossed the planner to him.
Neal Williams didn’t bother with him and simply said, “The general idea of this proposal is already in my mind.”
During this time, I have been communicating with Andrea Jones almost every night. Even if I haven’t seen the finished product, I still know what to expect.
“How do you get a count, it’s not like you’ve ever seen one.” Garret Miller makes himself coffee.
Neal Williams pulled the plan out, scanned it twice, and his face sank, seized into a ‘Chuan’, “How can it be this one? Where is the other one?”
“What’s one more copy? Just this one copy.”
“Are you sure?”
“Of course. Can I be unsure of what my team is doing?”
“Do you have EF Financial as your opponent tomorrow?”
“Uh-huh. There’s more competition this time.” Garret Miller shrugged his shoulders and looked at him askance again, “But why do you look like you’ve taken a big hit?”
Neal Williams’ face was stern.
He heavily threw away the plan and felt out his cell phone. He coldly pressed down a series of numbers and dialed over, but the phone was already turned off there.
“What the hell is wrong? That look on your face gives me a very bad feeling.” Garret Miller pursued with a frown.
“This case is not enough to correspond to EF!”
“How so?”
“Andrea Jones sent a copy of the case to Lewis Brown.”
Garret Miller froze for a moment and came to his senses. After the shock, sighing with relief, “I admit Andrea Jones has good credentials, however, she is not yet mature …”
“What if, with me on the sidelines and my input, what do you think?” Neal Williams interrupted him.
“Shit!” Garret Miller ton dead fried, “such an important client, I spent half a month preparing, you do not help us, but also help the opponent … shit! … Moreover, now we want to make a New out, even if it is staying up all night is simply impossible!”
