Ruth sat in her office chair, leisurely picking at her nails as she answered Simon’s call nonchalantly. “I have to be careful and proceed one step at a time. Don’t be so impatient.”
A sly glint flickered in Ruth’s eyes. She wasn’t just trying to get close to Miles to cause trouble, she wanted to control him completely. So far, her progress has been promising.
Simon’s eyes were full of anger. He snorted and said, “You better succeed.”
With that, he hung up the phone. Ruth rolled her eyes and ignored him. She then took her design draft and headed to Miles‘ office again.
She was determined to win him over!
Two months passed, and the International Design Competition was nearing its final stages.
After numerous revisions, Kate’s design was finally complete.
Finishing the last detail, Kate let out a long sigh, her eyes showing signs of fatigue.
I’ve finally finished it!
Looking at the perfect design on her computer, Kate smiled with satisfaction. She then picked up her phone and called Eric. “Ric, are you busy?”
In the Davison Group conference room.
The room was filled with Davison Group executives, and the atmosphere was tense. Eric sat at the head of the table, his cold and sharp gaze swept over everyone present. But before he could speak, his phone rang.
Eric glanced at the caller ID, and his demeanour softened instantly.
He accidentally hit the speakerphone button when he answered the call.
Kate’s gentle voice echoed in the conference room, “Ric, are you busy?”
The executives sat up straight as they looked straight ahead while pretending they hadn’t heard anything. However, they were listening to the phone call secretly.
Eric glanced at everyone present and said calmly, “No, I’m not.”
The executives exchanged glances while feeling relieved. Kate was their saviour!
Eric was lying through his teeth when he said that he wasn’t busy. The meeting had been going on for a long time, and they still hadn’t come up with a perfect solution. Eric had been on the verge of losing his temper when Kate’s call came through.

Eric’s expression softened. He smiled and responded softly, “Alright, what time shall we go?”
Kate chuckled, “How about now?”
“Sure. Eric grabbed his coat, and said, “I’ll pick you up.”
“Great.”
Kate smiled and hung up the phone. She stood up and stretched her body.
Back at Davison Group, Eric looked at his subordinates sternly and ordered, “I want a solution to this problem on my desk by tomorrow. You guys are fired if you can’t come up with a good one!”
The office atmosphere returned to normal after he left.
The executives sighed in relief. One of them remarked, “Thank goodness for that call from Mrs. Davison. We were doomed without it…”
“Yeah, she bought us some time. Let’s work overtime and make sure we have a satisfactory solution for Mr. Eric by tomorrow!”
“Thank you, Mrs. Davison! I was so scared that Mr. Eric would get mad.”
