Seeing that Amy was not working as efficiently as her, Hilary immediately called Cathy and asked her to send her a notebook.
"Hilary, don’t bother. I can make it. Three days is more than enough." When Amy heard that Hilary was calling her mother, she hurriedly stopped Hilary. A notebook was so expensive. She couldn't afford it now.
"It's fine. Just treat it as a gift from me. My mother has given you a gift. But I haven't. I don't know what you like. Now that you need this, isn’t it a wonderful gift?" Hilary felt happy to send a gift to her sister-in-law. Although it wasn't as expensive as her mother's gift, it was practical.
Very quickly, someone knocked on the door and sent in a notebook. Hilary turned on the computer, downloaded a lot of dictionaries and then handed it to Amy.
"Alright, you will certainly be more efficient. To turn to online dictionaries is much more efficient than paper ones."
Amy didn’t refuse her kindness again. Her priority was work right now.
In the private room, they could hear keyboards being tapped non-stop. They did not say anything else and were busy with the work in their hands.
However, although both were busy, someone was idle. From time to time, a knock at the door would come. Food, drinks, and even snacks would be delivered.
Anxious, Hilary called her mother again.
"Mom, we're not chatting while enjoying tea. We're working. Do you understand? Don't disturb us anymore." After Hilary finished speaking, she hung up the phone and no one bothered them anymore.
Amy translated in the tea house during the day and continued at home at night. She thought that she needed to finish the work as soon as possible so as to help Hilary.
Her husband hadn't returned, and she didn't know what had happened to him. However, Amy didn't have time to care about him. She wanted to do this job well. That was her priority.
Amy finished her task in two days, and she then took Hilary's work. Hilary enjoyed herself after returning home, so she was slower.
"Amy, have you worked overtime at home? I said that considering our ability, we could complete it in two and a half days. There is no need to be in a hurry. Staying up late is not good for your beauty." Since Amy was helping her, Hilary was embarrassed.
"It's fine. I always feel uneasy if I don't finish my work. I can't even sleep peacefully." Amy helped Hilary translate and she asked Hilary to rest.
Soon, they finished their work. Amy sorted out the materials and sent a copy to her email. The USB driver was prepared. She just needed to print it tomorrow at the office.
"Amy, I promised I would treat you to dinner if we finished work on time. Feel free to tell me what you would like. I am rich," Hilary said generously to Amy.
"Then how about me inviting someone else over?" Amy missed the cuisine that Richard had brought her to enjoy. She felt that it tasted very yummy, but Hannah had not tried it yet. She wanted to bring Hannah along.
"Someone else?" Hilary raised her eyebrows.
"Forget it. It was my casual talk. Don't take it seriously." Amy thought that Hilary was unwilling.
"Don't misunderstand me. I mean you can call ten people over, let alone one. It's my treat. You can invite anyone as you want. Bring them all along. I like you, and I like all of your friends." Hilary said as if she were Amy's boyfriend.
