Andrea felt overwhelmed and so embarrassed that she wishes to find a place to hide at that moment.
She didn't even know that Eason hates her so much, if she knew this situation, she wouldn't come and be a doormat.
She was not the only one who felt awkward, the air in the conference room was surcharged with tension. The people who stayed in the conference room didn't expect this reaction from Eason. They looked at each other and no idea how to continue this conversation.
Baron's eyes sank slightly, and he asked with unruffled calm, "Is it Mr. Eason dissatisfied with our designer?"
"I'm not dissatisfied, I'm just astounded at her." The corners of Eason’s mouth curved up and he spoke with icy calm, "As far as I know Miss Andrea is the designer of the Oops company, and the spring collections on this year are doing well. But Oops should be preparing the designs for summer collections at this moment, right? Will there be a scheduling conflict if she works with me?"
He explained it reasonable and tried to give Andrea Anderson an out, but it still made her be in an extremely awkward situation.
She didn't expect Eason Reed hate her so much, but everything was hard to explain since that moment.
Baron was sitting right above Andrea, he could see Andrea was biting her lip and looking sadly at Eason when he swiveled. His hands were clasped and he felt bad after seeing her reaction.
He thought that there was something happened between Andrea and Eason, but he didn't expect this woman...
"Letting Miss Andrea collaborate with Mr. Eason was the decision made by the company after a prudent consideration." Baron felt gloomy then he spoke in sepulchral tones, "Mr. Eason should witness her performance during last winter's fashion show and also the spring collections of this year, I believe these few events can prove her capabilities."
After Baron 's words, Eason took a glance at Andrea subconsciously.
Putting away his prejudice against Andrea, her design suited his taste. It's just because Cassidy and Andrea did not get along well and Andrea wasn't a good person, so he didn't want to get in touch with Andrea.
But Baron's words also showed their determination, so KJ group couldn't change the candidate.
So, Eason nodded and smiled, "Then I will do as Mr. Baron said, but I'm the person who rigorous in work and meticulous in details, so I've asked Miss Andrea in advance for your indulgence."
Andrea didn't have the right to refuse, so she had to accept it, both of them are exchanging their business cards right after the conversations.
At the end of the meeting, Eason reached out and shook Andrea 's hand in courtesy, her hand is slim and white, he had a familiar sense of during holding her hands, but he simmered down in a few seconds and said, "Miss Andrea, I look forward a smoothing cooperation."
"Me too." Andrea's tone was stiff and her heart was thumping with emotion.
When Eason and his group left, Andrea didn't care about anything else and went to the bathroom with lightning speed. She turned on the faucet and splashed water on her face twice, the icy water calmed her down.
Andrea looked at herself in the mirror, she felt so confounded and cowardly.
She wished to tell Eason that she was the girl he wanted to find all along and that Cassidy was fake, but now she was getting into troubles. That paper contract with Baron hadn't been sorted out clearly, so how she tells Eason about this?
When Andrea wandered, she saw a man who wore an iron-grey suit in the mirror, the man's eyebrows and eyes slightly drooping. Although the man didn't have any movement, the air was tense between them.
Andrea turned back and frowned at Baron and said, "Mr. Baron, here is the ladies' room, is there something I can help you?"
"Miss Andrea, how did you feel about the negotiations just now?" Baron approaching her with his height and body, it was giving people an extremely strong sense of oppression. He was locking Andrea in the corner of the room and questioned her in a gloomy tone, "Are you happy because can work with Eason?"
"We've colleagues now since we've worked with Mr. Eason." Andrea was cautious with her words and actions. She pursed her lips and said, "Even there was someone else, it's still the same, I just want to get the job done well."
