Olivia arrived at the hotel.When she returned to the hotel, she looked at the time.
It was less than half past five.
Brayden told her to go to bed before ten o'clock every day.
It was still a few hours before ten o'clock.
She had nothing to do.
Why not go back to work? Olivia thought for a moment, then went out for a casual dinner and took the bus back to
the company.
She had to work two hours overtime anyway.She came back at 9: 00 or 9: 20, then washed up and went to bed.
The car soon stopped at the company.
Olivia walked in and went straight into the elevator.
It was getting closer and closer to the press conference, and everything was going on according to a tight schedule.
She could no longer let her negative emotions get the best of her.She had to finish her design.
No matter what happened during this period.
Olivia came to the design room.
Unexpectedly, she saw Ann standing in the design room.
A look of surprise flashed across Olivia's eyes and she looked at Ann's hands.
She had a document in her hands and was reading it carefully.She had no idea that she got some company.
Olivia looked at the document in her hands and frowned.
The document contained her design.
Not all of it, but it was the design she had made these days.
There were also her plans and timetable.
Very detailed.
Olivia pursed her lips and looked at Ann.
A few seconds later, Olivia turned around and left.
Preston left the president's office after work.
As soon as he came out, he saw Olivia walking in front of him.
He said, "Olivia."
Olivia turned around.
"Mr.Smith.” Preston looked at her with a familiar smile.
"Why, are you working overtime again?"
That was the kind of person she was, always keeping herself busy.
Olivia smiled and said, "No"
"No?"
Preston raised his eyebrows.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe was surprised.He raised his wrist and looked at his watch.
"Twenty past six, are you sure you're not working overtime?"
She got off work at five o'clock, but now she was still at the company, on the way to leave.
If she was not working overtime, then what was it? Olivia nodded and said seriously, "No-’
Preston looked at the seriousness on her face.
Two seconds later, he said, "You look different from everyone else when you're joking"
Olivia was helpless.
"Mr.Smith, I'm not joking."
Her eyes narrowed as she looked ahead.
"I thought I had forgotten something at the company, so I came back.But when I got to the company, I
remembered that it was in the hotel, and I didn't bring it with me"
Looking at him, she smiled and said, "Bad memory"
Preston looked at the smile in her eyes.
Although she was smiling, it was different from usual.
Preston nodded.
"Yes, I guess so"
She was not such a careless person.
But if she didn't tell him the real reason, he wouldn't ask.
As they walked into the elevator, Preston suddenly asked, "How are the two assistants?"
He suddenly changed the subject.
Olivia paused and said, "Mr.Smith took over half a day of work today for me.What does Mr.Smith think?"
She looked at him with a smile in her eyes.
The smile was the same as before, and it looked different from usual.
Preston was a little surprised that Olivia would ask him instead.
But soon, he touched his chin and pretended to be thoughtful, then said, "Although I only covered half a day's work
for you, I believe I have the right to make an opinion"
Preston looked at Olivia.
"The two assistants of yours, one strong and one weak” Olivia looked at him.
"Which one is stronger?"
Instead of answering this time, Preston asked her, "What do you think?"
The two of them seemed to be playing a guessing game to see who was right.
Olivia thought for a moment and said, "I think both of them have their own strengths."
"What does Mr.Smith think?"
Preston looked into her eyes and said directly, "Grace is strong and Annie is weak."
Olivia's eyes moved slightly.
"Why?"
"Ann is very serious and careful in her work.Although all the work she does is small work, a lot of things start from
small work."
If one couldn't even get the small things right, then what could he possibly accomplish? Preston curled his lips.
"What you saw was that she was careful and serious.What I saw was her playing tricks.As he spoke, the smile
deepened.
"I don't believe you didn't see it. “
All the bosses were good at reading people.
They could tell what a man was made of in a day.
And Olivia was not stupid.
After spending a few days with Ann, she should have seen it.
Olivia lowered her eyes and did not speak.
Preston looked at her expression and said, "Assistants need to be trustworthy, steady, and determined.Other than
these qualities, nothing else matters."
Olivia was silent.
Preston stopped talking too.She had her own thoughts and judgment.He was just reminding her as a bystander.
Ding - The elevator door opened.
Olivia looked up.
"Let's see.If she doesn't know when to stop, then I'll send her to another department."
"OK"
Olivia returned to the hotel.
When she returned to the hotel, she sat on the sofa and began to think.
Ann indeed liked to play a little trick sometimes.
But it was undeniable that she was careful and serious in work, and so far she had done nothing wrong.
This was not done by coincidence or luck, but by devotion.
Only by her devotion to the work would she be able to do that.
But Preston was right.
Ann's job now was to be an assistant.She didn't need to think about anything else.She just needed to do what she
was told.
Just like Grace.
After thinking for a while, Olivia picked up her phone and called Grace.
Grace had already eaten and was playing with the dog.
When the phone rang, Grace took it, saw the name on the screen, and immediately answered, "Olivia!"
There was happiness in her voice.
It was rare for Olivia to call her at night.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Grace, do you have time now?"
"Yes! Does Olivia wanna have a little chat?"
"Yeah, I guess I do."
"Sure! Let's talk!"
She loved chatting with Olivia.
Olivia's heart warmed up when she heard her excited voice.
"Grace, I want to ask you a question"
"Well, go ahead, Olivia.I will tell you everything I know!"
"It's nothing.I just want to ask you what happened between you and Ann before.I think you guys seem to be
reconciled today" Grace frowned.
That was what Olivia had in mind.
Olivia did not hear Grace's answer and said, "Is it inconvenient? If that's the case..."
Before she could finish, Grace interrupted her.
"No, of course not.I'll tell you now!"
Anyway, it wasn't a big deal, and Olivia wouldn't just tell anyone else about it.
"Ann and I were in the same department.We..."
Grace continued, and Olivia listened.
Ten minutes later, Olivia said, "Il see"
Grace said, "Olivia, although I don't like Ann, she apologized to me today.She said a lot, and I have forgiven her"
Everyone had their own troubles to worry about.
Why couldn't she be a little more tolerant? It was better that way.
"Yes"
"Olivia, don't tell Ann what I told you.She's not so casual like me.I'm afraid she'll think too much if she knows I told
you what happened before"
Although Grace was careless, she was not stupid.
"I know.Don't worry"
She wouldn't tell anyone about this.
"Mmm! Olivia, you should rest early"
"Okay”
Hanging up the phone, Olivia had an answer in her heart.
At this moment, Hotel Alice.
Davis carried Everett's suitcase and walked out of the hotel with Everett.
Outside the hotel, the car was already waiting there.
When the driver saw the two of them, he immediately came over and put the suitcase in Davis's hand into the
trunk.
They got in the car and it started.
Soon, the car headed for the airport.
Everett looked out of the window, and the scenery kept moving past his eyes, but it could not fall into his eyes.
His dark eyes were filled with darkness.Too dark to be fathomable.
