Camilla instantly replied, "That might not be very convenient. I prefer working alone in my own space."
Lambert felt a wave of disappointment.
If she came to his office, he would be able to see her constantly.
But this was fine too. At least they had an open line of communication revolving around the suit design.
It was a good start.
He was confident that things would only get better from here.
As for her claim that she hated him...
He would just have to work harder to show her his best qualities.
Her current dislike didn't dictate their future.
Some people said that the moment they saw the person they liked, they even had their future children's names picked out.
Lambert was thinking about a lifetime.
Supporting each other through thick and thin, from their youth all the way to their gray years.
She was the only one he wanted.
Perhaps she only said she hated him because they had spent so little time getting to know each other.
Now, Camilla had outright rejected his proposal again.
He replied, "Then I'll wait until your designs are ready, and we can meet to discuss them."
When Camilla received the text, she was utterly baffled.
She had been slow to reply earlier because she had wanted to refuse but didn't know how to phrase it.
What exactly was Lambert playing at?
She had told him to his face that she hated him—such a harsh, severe word—and he didn't have any reaction to it at all?
Then, it finally dawned on her.
Perhaps men, especially in certain regards, were just shamelessly persistent.
Even a man of Lambert's caliber was no exception.
In fact, the more privileged a man was, the stronger his desire to conquer.
He had probably never met a woman who dared to say no to him.
Let alone tell him she hated him.
