Chapter 77


    Soon, I handed the proposal to Caroline.


    After reading it, she pursed her lips. "I knew it. She wouldn''t let what happened at the party slide so easily."


    I silently stared at her.


    Caroline looked at me as her slender fingers tapped on the table. "She''s unhappy that you stole the spotlight from her at the party. That''s why she''s


    looking for trouble."


    I stuck to the facts. "However, when Bruce sees the proposal, he''ll think she’s very ambitious.”


    Caroline agreed and said in frustration, "If she had reviewed the project n carefully, she would know the studious character she''s requesting is the


    male protagonist from the art department.


    "Just think about it—how can two male protagonists both be intellectuals in one game? It''s like she''s just fooling around."


    Of course, Cindy wouldn''t mind ovepping characters in a game.


    Upon hearing this, Caroline scratched her ear and cheeks. "She insisted we give her an answer, right?"


    Indeed, we both had great chemistry.


    "Since you already brought this up, I''m sure you already thought of a way to deal with it, right?"


    Caroline thought too highly of me.


    If we rejected Cindy''s twa suggestions, she mightin to Bruce. However, if we didn''t solve it, it might seem like we didn’t value her as a game


    nner.


    So, we were stuck in a tough situation.


    Caroline propped her chin up and mused, saying, "Cindy probably thought about this too. The character designs and personality were already


    established before the project was initiated.


    "She''s going too far. In my opinion, she''s not trying to uphold Roeval Group''s image. She''s just using this chance to y with us.”


    Caroline thought that Cindy was being too scheming, so she immediately made a decision and said, "We both understand that character images are


    crucial to the structure of the entire game. There''s no way we can change it. Otherwise, if word gets out, people would think that we''re being led on by


    a girl who hasn''t even graduated."


    I didn''t think that Caroline would think this far. But I did agree with what she said


    The only problem now was how to break the news to Cindy.


    Caroline looked at me and added, "Drag it out for two days and see how she reacts."Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    I didn''t disagree.


    Suddenly, Caroline changed the topic and asked, "However, were you really epted by Jadara University?”


    "Do I not lock like it?"

    The injury on my wrist throbbed as I replied self-mockingly, "Perhaps I was too lovesick at the time."


    She asked, "How about now?"


    Now. I had fully recovered.

    "Nancy, how did your discussion with Ms. Whittaker go?”


    I replied calmly, "We''re still discussing it."

    Cindy''s eyes twinkled. "I''ll wait for a bit more then.”


    I thought I had handled it well. However, Bruce suddenly called before lunch was even over.


    His tone seemed unfriendly. "Pleasee to Roeval Group immediately with Ms. Whittaker."


    He tried to seem professional, but it was obvious that he was ordering us around.


    I guessed that it had to be rted to the proposal.
