Chapter 1144
I didn''t hate Rowane, at least not then. She was actually an excellent woman, worthy of love and
care.
Exiting the bathroom, I saw Hendrix and Andrea in the hall.
Hendrix sat on the sofa, smoking. The thick smoke made him look particrly cold.

Andrea was acting again. She held Austin''s hand and said, "Austin, Miss Reid seems to have a
pretty good rtionship with Mr. Granger. I think Mr. Granger is very special to Miss Reid."
Austin nced at Hendrix, who was smoking, then said to Andrea, "Don''t talk nonsense!"
Andrea didn''t seem to notice Hendrix''s coldness and continued, "I''m not talking nonsense. I saw Mr.
Granger''s eyes on Miss Reid when we were having dinner, and Miss Reid also looked back at him
secretly. I think their rtionship is different."
I looked at him secretly?
I almostughed out loud.
"Miss Burton, you were eating so seriously during the meal, and you''ve observed everyone so
carefully. Did you notice how many shrimps
Hendrix peeled for me?" I walked to Hendrix''s side.
He looked up at me, and I grabbed the cigarette in his hand. I stubbed it out and threw it into the
trash can. Then I looked at him and said, "Quit smoking!"
Hendrix smiled and got up to grab hold of my waist. "Alright, I''ll listen to you!"
Andrea was stunned, probably not expecting me to show up. After a while, she looked at Austin
shamefully and said, "Austin, what I said just now, I didn''t mean..."
Austinforted her and said, "It''s okay. I know you''re just casually talking. It''s okay!"
I almostughed out loud, but I restrained myself. Sometimes, I really could understand why
Rowane disliked me when I was affected by this.
Because it really looked disgusting.
It was gettingte when Hendrix and I walked around the hotel for a while before heading back.
It was a long day and I was sleepy and tired. I took a bath and almost instantly fell asleep.
I heard Hendrix say something to me, but I was too sleepy to hear it clearly. I probably mumbled
some sort of incoherent response.
The next day.
It would be National Day soon, so it was impossible to finish the project within the next few days.
But if everything went ording to n, I should be able to get much work done as soon as
possible in the next few days.
I didn''t see Hendrix in the morning. There was a note on the bedside table when I woke up. "I''m
going downtown. I have something to do. Remember to eat on time!"
It must''ve been still early when he left.
After dressing up, I went straight to the base. Because of the participation of a third party, work
efficiency was a bit slow. The third party put a huge emphasis on quality, not speed, so the workers
tried their best to refine all the details of the base.
It was also because of this that the workload had increased.
Wearing a hard hat, Irvin looked around the base and then came straight into the office looking for
me.
Since we were all familiar with each other, he did not bother being polite. Instead, ask directly, "Are
you in charge of the project?"
I noted his seriousness and nodded. "Yes!"
He frowned slightly and said after a moment of silence, "We may need to talk about some details!"
"What''s wrong?"
"It''s not a big problem, but if you don''t deal with it, we can''t continue with the technology here. By
the way, the building of your machine base is very strange. Did you built a garage or a storage
warehouse underground?"
