Preston was going over Ann and Grace's work.He wanted to know the progress of their work.
Olivia hadn't come yet.
He was neither nervous or worried.He believed in Olivia.
Grace stepped on the sewing machine and sewed the velvet into the fabric.
Preston was standing beside her and watching.
Ann was trimming the fabric with a ruler and scissors.
She was responsible for the most basic work, then Grace did the next step, and then Olivia did the most complicated work and finished the final product.
In this way could they finish the work as quickly as possible.
Preston stood next to Grace for a while and went to see Ann.
Ann knew that Preston was coming, so she held the scissors tightly.
Preston looked at her movements, every detail of her doing her work, and said nothing.
In the design room, everyone was busy.
That was when Olivia came.
She stood at the door of the design room and looked at Preston.She saw him at the first glance.
He wore a shirt and suit pants, looking tall and straight.
Olivia's heart moved, and she felt a warm feeling rising from her heart.She walked in.
Preston heard footsteps, paused, and turned around.
Olivia wore a light blue shirt, a light brown Jacket, and her long hair was tied.She stood there, smiling at him.
"Mr.Smith, I'm coming to work’’ Preston's heart tightened.
When Ann saw Olivia, her eyes flashed with disappointment.
Grace was still treading on the sewing machine, not knowing that Olivia had returned.
Preston clenched his hands in his pocket and then loosened his grip.
He walked over and looked at her with a smile in his eyes.
"Well, work hard."
"I will? “ Preston left the design room.Olivia put down her bag and looked at Ann and Grace.
Ann had already turned around and continued to work.
Grace still didn't know Olivia was back.She had devoted herself to her work.
Olivia curled up her lips and did not disturb her.She went to Ann's side and watched her work.
Ann turned to look at her.
"Olivia.” Olivia nodded and said softly, "Go back to your work: Ann looked at her.
"Mr.Smith said you were sick.Are you all right now?"
"Yes, I slept all morning.I'm totally fine"
Olivia patted her on the shoulder.
"Don't worry about me.Focus on your work."
"OK” Olivia looked at Grace who was still stepping on the sewing machine.
Olivia smiled happily.
Grace was more serious at work than Olivia was.
Olivia said to Ann, "I'm going to Mr.Smith's office.If you have any questions, wait until I am back"
"Okay, Olivia"
Olivia took the plan and went to Preston's office.As Ann watched her leave, the disappointment in her eyes deepened.
In the president's office, Olivia handed the plan to Preston.
"Mr.Smith" Preston didn't take it.
Instead, he looked at her and asked, "Still want to leave?"
"Yes, I know it's irresponsible to leave now:’ She betrayed his trust.
Preston nodded seriously.
"It's irresponsible"
"But I am a good boss and won't hold you responsible" Olivia smiled.
"Thank you, boss."
"You're welcome”
"That's because you are good at your work." He didn't have a reason to hold her accountable.
Olivia smiled.
In the design room, Grace finally finished her sewing.
It was a semi-finished product.
She stretched and asked, "Ann, what time is it?"
Ann had felt something was unfair before, but now she didn't.Ann looked at her phone and said, "Five minutes to four’ "Four oclock..."
Grace looked around and didn't see Olivia.
"Looks like Olivia won't come today"
It was nearly four, not long before the time when they got off work, so Olivia might not come.
Ann heard her and said, "Olivia has come"
"What?"Ann looked at her.
