My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1115

Chapter 1115

"It's not just good news for me. It's good news for us." Fiorella smiled at Jared.

"Us?" The smile on Jared's face began to fade, and he looked at her with his forehead creased. "What do you mean by that?"

"This project will be managed by you and Castor," she replied. " Isn't that good news for us? In addition, the both of us will be working on this project together in the future."

Fiorella was elated. She looked at Jared affectionately as if he was her boyfriend.

"Was this Henry's idea or yours?" Jared asked.

Initially, Fiorella wanted to tell him the truth, but she was worried that Jared would object, so she blamed it on Henry. "It was Henry's idea of course. He must have thought that Castor couldn't manage such a major project alone, so he assigned it to you as well.

Anyways, I think this is a good arrangement. It would definitely be tiring for a single person to do everything on his own. With the both of you working together, neither of you would be exhausted."

Jared had a strong urge to approach Henry at once and ask him to pass the position to someone else. But knowing that Henry was at the top of the chain of command, he would not be able to persuade Henry without a solid reason. Then, he stared at Fiorella and his mind began to wander.

"Jared, what are you thinking about?" Fiorella noticed that Jared was lost in thought and attempted to snap him out of it.

"Nothing. It's just that this news is way too sudden. I don't think I'm prepared for it yet," Jared said, knowing that he could not tell her what was on his mind, so he had to come up with something.

"Oh, no preparations are needed. You can just treat it like you would any other project. There is no need to be nervous about it." Fiorella said, thinking that he was anxious about the project, and attempted to comfort him.

"When is the project starting?" Jared stared her in the eye, and asked.

"Once the contract has been signed, we'll get to work immediately. 11

To create an opportunity for herself to get closer to Jared at work, Fiorella had already delayed the plan. She wanted to make up for all the lost time.

"Is it that urgent?" Jared raised his eyebrows.

"If it wasn't Henry who kept stalling, we wouldn't be in this much of a rush," Fiorella said, angry at the mere mention of Henry.

"How long is this project going to last?" Jared asked.

"The estimated time would be about three years. It might be completed earlier or they might be delays. It's too early to set a time frame for it," Fiorella replied, telling Jared the truth.

"Three years?"

Once Jared was informed of the duration, the urge to pull himself out of the project became stronger. It seemed to him that he needed to have a good conversation with Henry.

"Yeah. After all, it's a massive project. The focus is on future development and long-term profits, so it'll take up quite some time," Fiorella explained, feeling that Jared was not too excited about it. "Jared, do you have any worries about the project?"

"Is it because of your existing projects?" Fiorella continued, making a wild guess.

"That is just part of the issue, but I have given it some thought," he replied. "I might not be able to manage so many projects all at once. I'm worried that there might be some problems in the future.
