Chapter 1733


    After she finished her presentation, she returned to her seat with her design draft.


    Charlie came over and sat down, saying in a low voice, "Both of you did a good job, Gavin and I will


    take another look at your drafts when we return."


    Ron chuckled, "These are just the preliminary drafts. Mr. James, please don’t hesitate to voice any


    concerns, even if it means having them revise their work."


    He finished speaking, his smile growing wider, "How about today? Mr. James has been in a hurry


    during hisst two visits, and we haven''t had a chance to properly host you! I''d like to invite you and Mr.


    Gavin for dinner as my treat. We can all sit down and discuss the drafts in detail."


    Gavin chimed in, "Sounds good, Mr. James doesn''t have any other ns tonight."


    Charlie gave him a nce, but didn’t say anything.


    Ron excitedly said, "That''s great! I''ll make a reservation right away.


    Gavin turned to Emily, smiling, "Emily, you shoulde too. We can discuss your design in more detail


    during dinner"


    Before Emily had a chance to respond, Ron immediately replied on her behalf, “Of course, Emily will


    definitely be there."


    The meeting temporarily concluded, and Ron instructed his assistant to book a restaurant while he took


    Charlie and Gavin to the lounge for a cup of coffee.


    As everyone started to leave, Emily returned to her desk to tidy up her belongings and make a call to


    Ms.Simmons.


    Chad returned to his office, sitting in his chair with an unpleasant expression .


    His assistant poured him a ss of water, trying tofort him, "The James Group hasn''t confirmed


    whose design they''ll use. Don''t worry too much, Chad."


    Chad asked, “Who do you think has the better design, me or Emily?"


    The assistant responded, "Of course, yours is better. Emily''s design is too shy, making it look like a


    theme park"


    Chad pondered and said, “But in J City''s future ns, the North District is supposed to be a tourist


    area."


    Chad had to admit, Emily''s design was more in line with the characteristics of the North District as a


    tourist area.


    His assistant, with a sly look, suggested, “I don''t think Emily came up with that design on her own. She


    just graduated andcks experience. How could shee up with such a mature idea? She''s close to


    Cedric, maybe he helped her with that."


    Chad raised an eyebrow, "Is that possible?"


    Cedric was known for his seriousness and wasn''t the type to y favorites.


    “Very possible, the assistant nodded emphatically.


    Chad gritted his teeth, "In any case, the final design hasn''t been decided yet, and my design might not


    necessarily lose to Emily''s."


    "Exactly!" The assistant agreed enthusiastically.


    As they were heading to the restaurant, waiting for the elevator, a colleague, Allen, spotted Emily and

    cheerfully fan over, "Emily, are you off work? Let''s go together!"


    Charlie turned his head, casting a nce at Allen with an inscrutable expression.


    Emily, standing behind him, told Allen, "I have ns tonight, you go ahead."


    Allen lived in the same direction as Sunset Ridge, and asionally they would take the subway


    together after work.


    “Alright; Allen approached and only then noticed Charlie and the others standing in front. He whispered


    to Emily, "I''m having some problems with my design, can you take a look at it tomorrow morning?"


    Emily nodded, "Sure, I''ll help you out."


    As the two of them whispered to each other at the back, Charlie, standing at the front, furrowed his


    brows slightly. When the elevator arrived, he took a long stride and entered.
