Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 61

She thought that she had been clear enough but Ogden laughed and said, “I’ll shoulder any mistakes and any credits will go to you. I’ll take it as an experience, after all, I trust in Miss Lewis’s abilities.”

Mr. Johnson also laughed and encouraged, “Since Mr. Ogden has already put it that way, Miss Lewis, go ahead and agree to it. This is an excellent chance to practice.”

Rachel laughed till she was stiff, she was complaining in her heart. She doesn’t want this opportunity. After a few months, even if she can lie about her pregnancy, she wouldn’t dare to continue working. How would she dare to accept such a large project? But now with the way both of them had said, she totally doesn’t have any grounds to reject.

Ogden and Mr. Johnson don’t know that she was pregnant. But Kenneth knows. He raised his eyebrows and looked towards Ogden and snickered, “Mr. Ogden, I’m impressed with your courage to let a small manager play with a big project worthy of hundreds of millions. Aren’t you afraid that you will lose your pants? No matter how capable she is, she only had three years of working experience. Even if Mr. Johnson was to be responsible for the project, I’m sure he’ll be very careful. Your confidence must have some other motives.”

Those present didn’t expect him to cut in and their attention was on him.

Ogden raised his eyebrow and smirked, “I heard that Dragon Age had partnered with Vantage and it was Miss Lewis who did the work; so Mr. Shawn doesn’t have any motives?”

Kenneth continued to eat and said, “It must be Mr. Johnson trying to encourage the new staff. If it were me, I wouldn’t use her.”

Rachel, “…”

Was this man helping her or ruining her?

Ogden laughed, “Then it’s must be that Mr. Shawn doesn’t know Miss Lewis well enough. Although she is new and only had three years of experience, for her to be able to understand this field so well, Miss Lewis must be very hardworking. Then this must be the right time for this opportunity.”

He said as he looked at Rachel, “Miss Lewis should be too stressed over this. I will have someone helping you negotiate and if you face any issues, you can look for them anytime.”

Kenneth’s sullen expression flashed and he kept his peace, forcing himself not to look at Rachel.

But now he was almost certain that Ogden has some motives for Rachel.

Rachel pursed her lips and lowered her head; she understood that with all that was said, she already had no right to reject.

Two seconds later, she raised her petite face, smiled, and nodded, “Okay, since Mr. Ogden trusts me so much, I will endeavor to do my best. I won’t let you and Mr. Johnson incur any loss.”

“Okay, come, let me toast you.” Ogden smiled at Mr. Johnson and then raised his glass towards her.

Rachel looked at the wine glass in front of her and hesitated. Then she took a sip and placed down the glass.

She tapped her glass with Ogden and was about to drink when someone said, “Manager Lewis, aren’t you going to the hospital to visit your mother? Don’t tell me you are going to drive under the influence?”

Rachel was surprised and looked towards Kenneth and glared at him.

Even if he wanted to help her, he shouldn’t be a killjoy.

So, she smiled at Ogden and said, “I’m sorry Mr. Ogden, I need to drive to the hospital, I can’t drink with you now. Why don’t you drink with Mr. Johnson and Mr. Shawn and I’ll refill your glasses.”

Ogden shook his head and said, “Oh my poor memory, I almost forgot. Mr. Johnson, Mr. Shawn, let’s drink.”

Mr. Johnson lifted his glass politely, “Of course, I came today to drink with both of you. I can’t drink much, please don’t laugh at me.”
