Chapter 1025 Finished Drawing
Lena and Gideon had never thought that coborating with someone else
could be such a tear-inducing ordeal.
Whether it was in terms of design concepts, methods of expression, or even
the portrayal of a single rooftop, they simply couldn’t reach an agreement.
If it hadn’t been for the rule that forbade changing groups after they were
assigned, Lena and Gideon would have requested to be separated long ago.
Inside the library.
After yet another argument, Lena couldn’t take it any longer.
“We can’tplete this design if things continue like this.” Lena frowned as
she looked at Gideon. “We’re wasting all our time trying to convince each
other. It’s too inefficient.”
Gideon, surprisingly, rubbed his temples. “What do you suggest?”
“Let’s work separately.” Lena pondered for a moment before finally making a
decision.
Gideon looked at her, puzzled. “Work separately?”
Lena nodded. “Within three days, let’s eache up with a preliminary
design draft. Then, we can merge the strengths of our respective drafts.”
Their biggest issue right now was their inability to convince each other. So,
they might as well materialize their ideas, present them visually, and use that
as evidence to persuade the other.
“Alright.”
Gideon agreed wholeheartedly with Lena’s suggestion. If they continued at
this stalemate, they would likely miss their deadline.
After Gideon left, Lena let out a long sigh of relief. Finally, she didn’t have to
rack her brain trying to persuade him any longer.
Just as her gaze fell back onto her desk, a cup of coffee suddenly appeared
before her.
Lena looked up in confusion, only to find Willington standing there.
“I noticed you’ve lost quite a bit of weight recently with all the group work. You
should take a break,” Willington said to Lena with a smile on his face.
He acted as if the previous rejection by Lena had never happened.
Lena furrowed her brows. In the past, people she rejected would usually take
the hint and disappear, but Willington was the first to pretend as if nothing had
happened and keep appearing before her.
She didn’t like this feeling.
Lena pushed the cup of coffee back toward him. “No thanks.”
“You don’t have to be polite with me. I know you likettes,” Willington said to
Lena, chuckling lightly.
His attitude was overly familiar as if the two of them shared a close
rtionship.
Lena’s brows knitted together. “It doesn’t matter whether I like this vor or
not, I don’t want to ept your gift.”
She said harshly, causing Willington’s face to stiffen momentarily.
He forced augh and said to Lena, “I just want to get to know you better.
Maybe you could…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Lena stood up, quickly gathered her
things, and said, “I think I’ve made myself clear. I have no romantic feelings
for you, and I never will.”
Without waiting for a response, she turned and left the library.
She didn’t see Willington standing there with a dark expression, staring at her
departing figure for a long time before he finally, reluctantly, threw the cup of
coffee into a trash bin.
Lena quickly put this incident out of her mind, focusing all her attention on her
group project.
Although she and Gideon had agreed on a three-day period, Lena stayed up
all night to finish the sketch.
She had initially nned to go to the library to refine her work. Still, after
recalling the incident from the previous day, she hesitated for a moment and
decided to head to the drafting room instead.
Just as she entered the drafting room, Lena saw Gideon sitting at a table,
drawing.
Hearing the door, Gideon also looked up, and his face immediately took on a
strange expression.
“Why are you here?”
His gaze fell on the roll of paper in Lena’s hands, and a sh of
understanding crossed his eyes. “You’ve finished drawing as well?”Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.
