Chapter 1714


    “So insincere!" Mr. Beck frowned, "What are you afraid of, getting drunk? I have got you a suite here.


    Stay as long as you like!"


    Emily, left with no choice, took another sip of her drink.


    Seeing Mr. Beck in high spirits, showing no signs of winding down, Cedric turned to Emily and said,


    “I''m out of smokes, go fetch me a pack of Infinite Clouds, will ya?"


    Mr. Beck immediately chimed in, "I''ve got Radiant Riffs here, smoke mine."


    “I''m used to these. Let Emily fetch them!"


    Emily rose to go buy the cigarettes.


    Awhileter, Emily called Cedric, "Mr. Cedric, the storekeeper says they''re out of Infinite Clouds, but


    they have tinum Puffs!"


    Cedric snapped, "Can''t you handle a simple errand? Don''t you have a brain? If they don''t have it, go


    somewhere else. If you can''t find it, don''t bothering back!"


    He hung up abruptly.


    Mr. Beck chuckled, “Why the temper? It''s just a pack of cigarettes!"


    Cedricughed it off, "She''s new, still a bit clumsy. She needs to learn a lesson!"


    “A pretty young thing like that needs to be pampered!” Mr. Beck smirked, raising his ss in a toast


    with Cedric, “Let''s carry on!"


    Across the street at the supermarket, Emily, holding her phone, was taken aback by Cedric’s scolding.


    She quickly regained herposure and texted him back, [Thanks, Director, could you please bring


    my design drafts back to the office when you leave? Thanks again!]


    After sending the message, Emily hailed a taxi and headed home.


    The next day, Mr. Beck called Emily, wondering why she had left early.


    Emily brushed it off with an excuse, hoping to avoid Mr. Beck as much as possible in the future!


    She just wanted to focus on her designs, without anyplications.


    Unfortunately, fate had other ns. The next day, the director, Ron, suddenly summoned her to his


    office.


    Wearing a yellow and blue suit, Ron greeted Emily politely, offering her a ss of water,ughing, "Mr.


    Beck called me. He''s very impressed with the vi you designed. He had nothing but praise for you!"


    Emily smiled, "I appreciate Mr. Beck''s recognition!"


    Ron paused, then began, "Here''s the thing, Mr. Beck is attending the International Trade Convention in


    N City and he wants you to apany him. It''s just for three days. You should prepare."


    Emily was taken aback, "Why would I go with Mr. Beck?"


    “Emilyt" Ron leaned back in his chair, grinning meaningfully, "Mr. Beck has had a great impression of


    you since yourst meeting. He wants to take you with him to broaden your horizons. It''s for your own


    good. Apany Mr. Beck well for these three days, and he will surely treat you well!"

    Emily shot up, "Mr. Ron, what do you mean by that?"


    Ron waved his hand, "Don''t overreact. Sit down and talk!"


    Emily sat down, her voice icy, “I''m not going!"


    "Youre still young! What are you working so hard for? Isn''t it to earn money so you can live a dignified


    andfortable life? These three days can be worth three years, even ten years!" Ron tried to


    persuade her, "Mr.


    Beck is our major client. He''s wealthy and well-connected. If you can please him, you won''t have to


    worry about work in the future. It''s just three days, what''s the harm?"


    “Moreover, Mr. Beck has said that as long as you apany him for these three days, he will entrust


    all construction matters of his vi, including the post-construction decoration, to us. I''ll give you a three


    percentmission, and I promise that when youe back, I''ll find a reason to promote you to


    senior designer. How about it?"
