“No, do not touch this project, and make sure no one else does either.”
Cedric was becoming increasingly confused about the intentions of his company’s president.
But since he had been instructed so, there must be a reason!
“Alright, rest assured, I will pay extra attention,” Cedric continued to report his findings, “Also, about the person you asked me to look into, his name is Brandon, an assistant in the project department at Eastsun Corporation. He recently joined Eastsun Corporation, a graduate of Fulton University with excellent grades.”
“Is he single?”
Cedric hadn’t expected Mr. Walters to ask him to investigate this!
At first, when he saw Brandon’s information, he thought Mr. Walters was considering poaching him for W Group…
“Probably,” after all, the young man was so young and had only graduated a few years ago; he surely couldn’t be married so soon.
“I don’t want ‘probably’; I need certainty.”
“Give me ten minutes.”
Ulric hung up the phone and rubbed his temples.
Thinking about last night, seeing those two alone together, he felt an indescribable displeasure!
Wasn’t Rosalind supposed to be with Leonard? How did Brandon appear?
Ulric had even overheard them talking about going back to the hotel together!
The more he thought about it, the more irritated he felt. He pulled up Rosalind’s WhatsApp and sent a message.
“Miss Ruell, sorry, I’m lost again. Are you available for a voice call?”
Soon after, she replied.
Rosalind: “I’m not very available right now, I’m discussing business with a partner at a restaurant. Can you wait a bit?”
Ulric replied almost immediately, “A man?”
After sending it, he regretted being so direct and wanted to take it back, but Rosalind had already seen it.
Rosalind: “Yes, what about it?”
What about it?
She even dared to ask that!
Ulric felt a throbbing pain in his temples!
She hadn’t learned from the last lesson, daring to discuss cooperation with a man in a restaurant!
This time Ulric didn’t conceal his feelings with Cedric anymore and called directly, “Find out which restaurant Rosalind is in.”
“Taylor… in Jingtown?”
“Yes.”
Cedric suddenly understood everything.
His boss had been mysterious these past few days, making it difficult for him to understand, and it was all because of Taylor!
That explained the strange instructions lately.
“I’ll find out right now.”
…
In the restaurant, Rosalind checked her phone for the third time.
After asking her question, the driver had simply vanished!
Why was he curious whether her business partner was male or female? Could it be… he had seen her?
She looked around, but saw no familiar faces.
“Miss Ruell?”
Adrian poured her a glass of wine, then spoke up to break her reverie.
Rosalind hurriedly smiled, “Sorry, I’m not very good with alcohol; I feel a bit drunk after just one glass.”
Hearing this, Brandon immediately reached out to take her glass, “In that case, I’ll drink with you for the rest of the night!”
“I’m here to connect with Miss Ruell, and she hasn’t said anything yet. Who are you?”
Adrian’s face instantly showed displeasure, darkening a bit.
Rosalind didn’t want to upset anyone from Zenith on her first day.
So, she picked up her glass and toasted, “Don’t be upset, he’s just concerned I might have a headache tomorrow! They always look after me at the company, no offense, this drink is to you.”
