NovelEnglish"Ms. Langston, cin." Upon seeing Lucian in the room, Lemira, with a calm demeanor, said, "I've integrated the tested code into the software. My work here is done, so I'll be on my way unless there's something else." "Lemmy, I always knew you wouldn't letdown. I had no idea you had so many skills under your belt." Truth be told, Lucian had his doubts about Lemira solving the firewall issue. After all, he had sought the expertise of many, to no avail. Yet, she had cracked it in just two days.
Lucian beamed at Lemira, "With this, I feel even more confident in entrusting the company to your capable hands." "I'll pass." Lemira declined straight away, turning to Hogan, "Just process the payment as we agreed, and that'll be all." She had no intention of staying any longer.
Lucian, somewhat panicked, stood up to stop her, "Lemmy, running a company is far more meaningful than streaming online. It's a venture that promises more financial gain down the line. I genuinely have your best interests at heart." There it is again, the "for your best interests" argument! Lemira was composed, "Lucian, are you really doing this for me, or is it just another way to keepunder your thumb?" Returning would mean reverting to their old ways of interaction.

Hogan, observing Evelina's attempt at comfort, felt a twinge of discomfort but remained silent, considering it a personal matter for the boss. Lemira headed straight hafter leaving the company.
Soon after Hogan called, "Ms. Langston, our clients insist on having a technical handover before proceeding. Could we trouble you to join us at the client's company tomorrow?" en Lemira frowned, "Fine, but this will be the last tI'm involved, and I'd prefer the client not know who I am." "No problem, it's all settled then. Your payment has been processed; please check your account." After hanging up, Hogan looked at Lucian, "It's all arranged, boss." "Why does Lemmy agree when you ask but not me?" Hogan's expression turned complex, "Probably because I'm just a bystander. Ms. Langston is kind-hearted; she didn't want to make things difficult for me.
Lucian sighed, "I don't even know how to communicate with her anymore." e el
