"There is a payment term in this contract that is not so clearly defined." Finnley took the contract to the middle-aged man opposite him and said. "If the project failed to be delivered within the deadline, who should bear the loss?” "Thank you for reminding me," the client read it and said, "we will redraw the contract.” "And we also have a few suggestions about the project, the detailed data is in this file,” Finnley took out another document and said.
"We'd like to hear them.” As time went by, they talked about work.
After drinking a cup of coffee, Shirley was still waiting for Finnley.
Linda, wearing a luxury dress, sat next to Finnley, listening to their conversation and writing notes from time to time, glanced at Shirley sitting not far away from them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMya had left, why was her mother still here? Was she waiting for Finnley? Linda was very unhappy and did not want Finnley to meet Mya's mother.
How could he meet Mya’s mother so soon? She felt jealous again.
But this was beyond Linda's control.
The conversation with the client soon came to an end, and the two got up and shook hands.
The client said, "Mr. Russell, will you pass my gratitude to Mr. Marsh? | will go back to modify the contract and we are looking forward to a successful cooperation with you.” "Of course." Finnley looked like a gentleman while Linda stood by his side and smiling.
Shirley finally saw them come this way. Finnley saw Mya leave just now and knew that Shirley had been sitting here.
He guessed that she might be waiting for him, but why? "Mr. Russell." Shirley stood up as Finnley passed her.
Finnley stopped, “Mrs. Saunders.” Linda stopped, too, with a polite and somewhat awkward smile on her face. She got closer to Finnley, but still didn’t greet Shirley.
Shirley noticed them and wondered what she meant.
But she didn't really care and smiled at Finnley, "Can we talk? It won't take long.” Finnley couldn't refuse, "Of course." He sat down in the opposite chair where Mya had sat, and looked at Linda. “You should go back first.” Linda stood there still.

"Miss, will you place wait outside? | have something to say to Mr. Russell.” As Linda came to herself and was about to go out, Finnley said, "Don't wait for me. Go back to work.” "Okay.” She had to take the document and leave.
If they didn’t run into Mya and her mother today, she might have got a chance to have a cup of coffee with Finnley.
Shirley looked as Linda walk out of the door of the cafe before her eyes fell on Finnley, "What do you want to drink?” “It's okay, Mrs. Saunders. I've had some coffee just now.” Finnley smiled.
Shirley said, “Then | will go to the point.” Why did he have a bad feeling? Finnley was ready, sitting there with his back straight. “Go ahead, Mrs. Saunders.” "What's your relationship with Mya?" asked Shirley, her eyes fixed at him.
Finnley was surprised. Why would she ask this? Did she see something? "The question is that difficult to answer? Why do you need to think about it for so long?" Shirley frowned. She had held a glimmer of hope just now, but now it seemed that he and Mya were really together! "Mrs. Saunders, would you believe it if | told you we are just friends?” Finnley asked.
"You are a scum!” Shirley didn’t want to lash out at Mya, but she didn’t care about Finnley. “You have slept together and you said you are just friends? What do you mean by that?” mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLII0fiflO& 1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWL1i10fif10&1 mmMwWLIiI0fiflO&1
