Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 260 Mutual Affection Lucas Den's forehead was covered in sweat, and at this moment, he regretted boasting in front of the manager to grab credit and later wanting to impress the CEO, so he continued boasting.

If he couldn't complete the task this time, his situation with Mason would likely beceven more difficult.

"Selena, I am not representing Cornerstone Construction. I was only given orders from above to chere and gather information. The CEO is currently busy entertaining other VIPs and doesn't have tto meet you. It was my own initiative to say that I know you, I apologize." This time, Lucas Den's words were more sincere, expressing his selfish motives clearly.

He got up and went to the front desk to request tea and snacks, his attitude was very amiable.

"After half an hour, when the CEO is finished, I will take you up." Since they had already reached this point, and because he was Philip's friend and Shelley still had feelings for Philip, Selena didn't want to create an unpleasant situation and nodded in agreement.

Because she didn't know what to talk about with Lucas Den, she took out her computer from her bag and started making changes to the original design.

If the columns were not included, the lighting and shadows would change. She made changes after changes to the original design, her brow slightly furrowing.

Lucas Den didn't dare to disturb her and just noticed that her cup of tea was empty, so he silently brought her a new cup.

Once Selena gets absorbed in her work, she loses track of time. And by now, half an hour had already passed. Raymond's meeting was over, and the executives from Cornerstone Construction and the Montague family had gathered downstairs.

Raymond and the CEO of Cornerstone Construction walked in front, and he immediately spotted the person sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

She was focused on her computer, and the man beside her was pouring her water.

They appeared exceptionally harmonious.

Raymond's footsteps froze for a moment, he glanced back, then silently continued walking towards the front gate.

The president of Cornerstone Construction did not notice his hesitation, but felt that his presence had beccolder.

The president of Cornerstone Construction also saw Selena, and his heart tightened, but he discovered that the young employee had really stopped Selena and had been waiting in the lobby for so long, which made him quite satisfied. After respectfully seeing Raymond off, the president of Cornerstone Construction wiped the sweat from his forehead and hurried to where Selena was sitting. "Selena, I hope you are well, I hope you are well." Upon hearing his voice, Selena closed her laptop.

The president glanced approvingly at Lucas Den and said, "You should go back to your department first." Lucas Den could hardly conceal his sense of achievement on his face, knowing that his promotion had beca reality, after all, the president's words were reliable.

Selena did not pay attention to the undercurrents between them and went directly to the top floor of Cornerstone Construction.

She proposed three conditions in a row, and the president of Cornerstone Construction agreed to each one without any intention of shirking responsibility.

Selena finally relaxed a bit, avoiding a real conflict with Cornerstone Construction. After all, the construction had already started, and changing the construction team would require starting over and communicating from scratch. "Selena, this issue is indeed the fault of our team, to be frank, when the project manager called me, I was already very restless. Cornerstone Construction has always had a good reputation over the years, never having encountered a situation like this before. We have already dismissed the employee responsible, hoping that it won't affect our future cooperation." Selena saw the hand extended by the president and thought of how he hadn't delayed the three conditions either.

"A pleasant cooperation." She reached out her hand lightly, exchanged a few more words, and then left.

The president had his assistant personally accompany her out, then sat in his leather chair and wiped the sweat from his forehead. First Raymond, then this designer, both of them had such strong presence, it was really exhausting to deal with them on the sday.

When the assistant returned, he spoke up, "That young employee today, is he under Mason? Is his nLucas Den? This kid is elever • Den? and knows how to handle things. Let's give Mason's position to him. For years, all Mason has done is flatter and not accomplish anything substantial. This time, he even let his subordinate take the credit in front of me." Since the position required a smooth-talker, it didn't make much difference whether it was given to Mason or Lucas Den.

When Mason received the dismissal notice from the HR department...

Furious, his blood boiling, Mason couldn't bear to witness Lucas Den's smugness at Cornerstone Construction. Instead, he grimly uttered a sentence before storming off. "Just you wait!" That evening, Mason sought solace in alcohol, and as his friends helped him out, he drunkenly muttered.

"Isn't he just using Selena to climb up? That lackey is nowhere near as capable as me... that scoundrel Lucas Den."

At that moment, Raymond was about to enter the bar with Alex. Alex nearly collided with the intoxicated om individual, and upon hearing the nMason was muttering, Raymond raised an eyebrow. "Raymond, did I hear correctly? Did he mention Selena?"
