Griffon would be visiting theirpany to sign the contract in person?
While Neil was astonished, he couldn’t help feeling equally puzzled.
Didn’t Griffon abandon Taya in Washington? Why would he still meet her?
Could it be that Griffon couldn’t let Taya go, so the project was just an excuse to approach her?
Neil slowly lowered his head, his gaze falling on his right hand…
Vaguely, he could tell that there was seemingly something amiss with the timing of the dislocation of his
right hand, but he couldn’t figure out what went wrong.
Taya’s eyes overflowed with doubts as she gawked at the
cked-out screen.
Why did Griffon demand that she take on such a huge project?
After a moment of contemtion, she dialed Neil’s number.
“Mr. Sherwood, I think it’s better that we reject the project. I have
so many projects to catch up on, there isn’t just enough time…”
After having just sent Joe off, the perfect smile on Neil’s face fell upon hearing Taya’s words.
“There isn’t any need for you to conduct site visits for the rest of the projects. Hand all of them to me.
All you need to do is concentrate on your designs.”
Just as Taya was about to refute, Neil dismissed her words by saying, “We’vee to a mutual
agreement with the other party, so that’s it.”
Taking a helpless deep breath, Taya gave Harper a call to ask when she would be back…
ording to Harper, the insane Preston had booked her ce for three days, so she wouldn’t be
coming back any time then.
She did not forget to remind Taya that she should go to Griffon once she was back in Arcadia.
ording to Harper, Griffon was in urgent need to meet her.
Taya had wanted to tell Harper that she was back and had met Griffon when Harper hung up halfway
through their
conversation…
She had no choice but to put her mobile phone aside and enter the study to catch up on the drawings
for the second project…
By the time she took a rest, it was eight o’clock the next morning. There was only a rough sketch on the
sketchbook on the table.
Without the time for any touch ups, she threw her pen aside and went straight into the bathroom to
wash up before rolling up her sketch and hurrying out the door.
Rosalie’s office was a two-story red brick manor, the hue of the walls varying from russet to autumnal
browns. Inspired by French architecture, it had a unique dome design and was one-of-a-kind.
After she arrived at thepany, she called Neil, who soon ski pped down the stairs wearing a pair of
slippers…
Seeing his exaggeratedly bandaged arm, Taya’s facial features couldn’t help drawing to a frown. “It
looks serious, are you all right?”
Neil managed a stiff smile. “It’s nothing much, it’s just a dislocation. Would you like to give it a try? I can
help you out.”
Taya pretended not to hear as she continued walking in the
direction of the office…
The office supplies were all in even numbers, including the number of designers there. There were
eight of them.
Neil went on talking about how there had been nine designers in
the past and how annoying the number had been for him, so he
made up his mind to fire one of them, feeling a lot more at ease
While listening to his rambling, Taya followed Neil to the second floor.
Neil took her to Rosalie’s office. The moment he opened the door, a look of sorrow crept up his face, as
if he was reminiscing about the past…
Seeing the goofy Neil showing such emotions, Taya’s hand raised to feel her wolf.
“Thispany run by your sister doesn’t have arge scale, but it’s one of the best in the construction
industry.”
“After she died, Amon was supposed to take over the
management, but he became some kind of a lun atic after that and ended up handing thepany
over to me.”
“Since you’ve returned to the country as Rosalie, thispany will be handed over to your
management…”
Hearing Neil’s words, Taya returned to her senses to look up at Neil leaning on the door frame, all the
moreid-back.
“I have no experience in managing apany, no way…”
“How would you know if you don’t give it a try?”
With rare solemnity, he gave Taya a reassuring pat on the
shoulder.
“Have some faith in yourself.”
As if to have been poked in her sore spot, Taya’s head drooped in embarrassment.
“Thispany is built with your sister’s painstaking effort. With her name, you shall help her pass the
architectural tradition on. You could say that you’re fulfilling her dream.”
When Neil’s gaze scanned Rosalie’s office, his eyes were full of respect without the slightest disregard
for Rosalie…
Besides Amon, Rosalie was the only architect he admired.
A prodigy architect recognized for her talent since young, insisted on continuing her career although
she suffered from ALS.
In the chaotic world, such persistence was rare. He was eagerly hoping for Taya to pass the spirit on.N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.
