"There was no such thing at first, but you look extremely similar to an old friend of mine. I'm ashamed to ask, but I would like to invite you to have dinner together. What do you think?" Avery let go of her and took a step back like a gentleman, giving her sspace and tto consider.
Because of the intensity of his emotions, his fingers were slightly trembling.
They looked as if they were trembling.
But if you took a closer look, you could tell that they were actually trembling.
"I have to go back to the office after receiving the information." Zoe frowned.
"I can go with you, but you have to take care of my injury." Zoe didn't know whether Charlotte was asking for information or this... psycho in front of her.
"I guess it's fine if we go back to the office together. It's rather lonely forto eat by myself anyway," she thought.
So, Zoe agreed.
Avery smiled and snapped his fingers. He was so thrilled that he accidentally lost his balance and fell to the ground as he quickened his pace.
"Mr. Hart!" Zoe immediately helped him up.
The man's eyes were reddish about the rims. He bit his rosy lips. Several locks of hair obscured half of his face, making him look like an ethereal beauty.
Zoe was stunned. She never knew that a man could be so beautiful.
"My men, except for one, all callYoung Master. How about you callYoung Master too?" He gently fluttered his eyelashes.
"This nis too ancient." "If you don't like that, you can just callAvery. Mr. Hart sounds too distant." As a straight woman, Zoe's experience in dating was only limited to having a secret crush. No, it was not a secret anymore, but even so, she could tell that the man in front of her was trying to flirt with her. She finally understood why the kings from ancient dynasties didn't attend court meetings in the morning.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf they had an imperial concubine like Avery, they wouldn't even care about their countries, let alone the morning court meetings.
Zoe stopped responding to Avery and silently helped him to his workplace.
Avery would tease her occasionally, but when he saw that she didn't react to it, he stopped.
The two of them treated each other with respect.
Two hours later, Zoe took Avery to Charlotte.
Charlotte almost sacked Zoe at that moment.
The last person she wanted to see in her life, other than Shane, was definitely Avery.
"Zoe, you go, you go... uhm, buy two cups of coffee. Don't bring them in if I don't let you in." Charlotte instructed, feeling helpless.
"Alright." Zoe suppressed her laughter.
Judging by Charlotte's reaction, what else did she not understand? Charlotte clearly didn't want to see Avery. No wonder Avery asked Zoe to bring him here.
After Zoe left, Avery instantly changed his demeanor and said, "I didn't intend to follow her here when I knew that she cto collect the information. I just wanted to tease her and see who was so lucky to be chosen by you." "And then?" In his current state, Charlotte felt like there was no harm in chatting with him for a little longer.
Avery laughed coldly, 'And then? I realize that this assistant of yours looks exactly like my dead girlfriend. Don't you think I should cover?" "Are you sure?" "It can't be wrong. But you said that her nis Zoe, so I suspect that sthings about the incident that happened back then remained undiscovered. Zoe and my girlfriend, Irena are definitely a pair of twins, or..." || Maybe Irena had never died and becZoe.
Otherwise, how is it possible to have two identical people existing on earth at the stime? Charlotte nodded. "As long as you don't hurt Zoe, I have no right to stop you from investigating or pursuing her. But if you hurt her..." "Do I look like that kind of person?" "A pervert who pretends to be a woman. What do you think?" "It's just a survival strategy. If Shane were in my shoes, he wouldn't have done better thaneither." Charlotte instantly fell silent at the mention of Shane.
Avery changed the topic and said, "Well, I'll tell you what you know so far. Let's talk about these two projects first. They..." Both of the projects were related to airfreight.
And both were supported by the partnership.
However, one of the projects failed to obtain approval. Many of the companies gave up while waiting for it to be approved.
"Gave up while waiting?" Charlotte slowly digested these words. "So, Jane Corporation must have chosen the other project." "That's right, smartiepants." "According to Jane Corporation's strategy, taking charge of airfreight can reduce a large sum of expenses. They can directly purchase materials from overseas and export them abroad so that they don't have to waste too much effort back here." "I don't think that this is within your field of expertise." Avery laughed at her.
"Please enlighten me," Charlotte said seriously.
Avery explained everything to her in great detail and was very satisfied with her learning attitude.
Of course, airfreight was capable of cross-border and long-distance shipping.
The most important thing was to buy pieces of land and build factories in third-tier and fourth-tier cities. Next, send the goods to second-tier cities for packaging, then to the headquarters in first-tier cities. Finally, the headquarters located in first-tier cities would distribute the products all over the world.
"You must know that these goods must be under someone's nose, especially the ones in first-tier cities, but you can just ignore the defective ones." Avery finished his sentence.
"Does that mean that if they take over this project, Jane Corporation's Hometown Campaign will work out?" "Heh. Rick, this man. He kicked you out and even stole your idea. Disgusting piece of sh*t." Charlotte remained silent.
She didn't see Rick as someone like that.
But the evidence was right in front of our noses. She sighed and rubbed her temples. "Let's not talk about him anymore. So, have you found out whether Shane and NC are involved in this project?" "Of course. Letjust make it clear to you. Shane was not involved in anything. He didn't participate in the investment or the bidding. That's the only weird part about it. You must know that NC's airfreight is the weakest!" Charlotte felt as if she had just been punched by someone.
She stood there in a daze, her eyes blank.
Avery waved his hand in front of her and said, "Are you okay? Hey, Charlotte!" I'm fine..." She snapped back to reality and smiled tiredly at him. "I'll treat you to dinner tonight." "No need. I've already asked her out and she said yes." Avery smiled proudly. "You and Mr. Fuller always think I look eccentric, but maybe somebody prefers my style. Talk to you later. I'll go first." "Take care." The office felt empty after Avery left.
All of a sudden, Charlotte's eyes welled up with tears.
Both her shares from NC and everything that Shane did for her this tproved her one thing. It proved that he completely entrusted her with his weaknesses. Shane wanted her to make up for his weaknesses.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe wanted to make himself look impeccable, and when the enemies attacked him, he would need her to cout and save the day.
Shane was taking advantage of her, and she knew that better than anyone else.
However...
Who takes advantage of people for the sake of helping them?
But she felt like everything he had done for her was a kind of capital recovery. He had lent her a helping hand, so now he wanted her to help him back by gaining sinterest. Charlotte took a deep breath and wiped away the tears gathering in her eyes. She had no tto be emotional.
This time, she had to win the battle beautifully.
Late at night.
Shane went halone. Looking at the empty living room, he was slightly lost in thought.
He placed a bento into the oven to heat it and made a cup of coffee.
He held the cup of coffee and leaned against the balcony. While waiting for his bento, he made sure that he seized the chance to read a book.
His phone rang.
"Cole," he said.
"Miss Charlotte has submitted the bidding application, and the company has already approved it." Cole's tone was filled with amazement. "She's incredibly efficient. I initially wanted to send her the information tomorrow, but I didn't expect her to find the project on her own!" "Okay." "Mr. Fuller, after this is over, do you want to..." "Order a bracelet for me." It bothered Shane that she was wearing a gift given by others on her wrist.
Cole quickly understood and said, "I understand. Would you like to decide on the style?" "No need. I'll buy a more suitable one for her in the future if she doesn't like it." "Mr. Fuller, you're actually quite a loving person. If you're afraid of losing face, you can at least give Miss Charlotte shints." Beep- A sound rang out from the oven.
