Chapter 1199


    “How did the bidding meeting go today?” Tracy asked with her usual coolness.


    Emily exined, “Mr. James was originally going to have you attend this morning, but you had an


    important client to meet, so he made ast-minute decision for me to tag along”


    “No problem!” Tracy said, “We both worked on this bid; you know the content like the back of your


    hand, so it doesn’t really matter who went!”


    “Okay, I’ll send you thetest updates on the projectter,” Emily said gently.


    “No rush; I pulled an all-nighter and didn’t get much shut-eye. Go make me a cup of coffee,” Tracy


    ordered, typing away at herputer, not even looking up.


    “Sure!” Emily responded promptly, turning to make her coffee.


    When she came back with the coffee, Tracy handed her a stack of papers and said, “Make copies of


    these; I’ve written down how many I need. Chop-chop.”


    “Okay!” Emily responded.


    “Emily, take these documents to the business department!”


    “Emily, this is the data the tech department needs; Mr. James signed off on it this morning. Get a move


    on!”


    Emily was kept busy with tasks for Tracy, and before she knew it, an hour had flown by.


    When Charlie came asking for the financial report of the biddingpany, Emily had made no


    progress.


    Tracy stood up, furrowing her brows at Emily. “If you can’t handle it, you could at least let me know!


    Why keep silent? This is holding up Mr. James’ work! You know how particr he is about efficiency,


    right? You still have a ways to go to keep up with his pace.”


    Emily didn’t exin; she just said quietly, “Yes.”


    Tracy turned to Charlie, smiling, and said, “Let me handle the financial report; I’ll have it sent to you


    within an hour!”


    Charlie nced at Emily’s downcast eyes and checked his watch. “I have to step out; I’ll be back in an


    hour.”


    “Alright!” Tracy immediately replied, “Don’t worry, I’ll surelyplete it within an hour!”


    Charlie gave Emily one more look before striding away.


    Once Charlie was gone, Tracy casually sat back at her desk, turning to Emily and asking, “What are


    you standing around for? Get the financial report ready and send it to me in forty-five minutes.”


    Emily didn’t say anything; she just sat down and started working.


    Suddenly, the elevator doors on the thirty-ninth floor opened again, with the sound of high heels


    approaching. Emily looked up, immediately standing, “Hello!”


    Waters was tall and wore a beige knee-length dress. Her wavy hair cascaded over her shoulders,


    radiating an endless charm. She removed her sunsses, revealing her stunning face. Sizing up Emily,


    “You’re new here; I haven’t seen you before!”


    Emily nodded. “Yes, I just started recently.”


    “Ms. Waters!”


    A voice full of surprise came from the direction of the break room. Tracy rushed over, a broad smile on

    her face. “Ms. Waters, it’s been a while since west saw you!”


    It was then that Emily realized Tracy wasn’t always poker-faced.


    Waters handed Tracy a shopping bag with a high-end brand logo and said, “I was out of town a few


    days ago; I just got back yesterday. This is for you!”


    “Wow! I’ve been eyeing this style for a while but couldn’t find it here!” Tracy grinned from ear to ear, her


    eyes squinting with joy. “Thank you, Ms. Waters, for always bringing me things I love from your trips;


    you’re too kind.”


    “It’s no trouble, just something I picked up along the way.” Waters smiled and then turned to Emily and


    said, “I didn’t know there was a new face; I didn’t prepare anything for you. I’ll make it up to you next


    time.”


    Emily shook her head and said, “I don’t need anything, but thank you anyway.”


    “Is Charlie here?” Waters asked, “Is he in his office?”
