William smashed the keyboard and monitors so ruthlessly that Elizabeth jumped in shock.She could not help but look at the shattered pieces on the floor in horror.
William looked at her coldly and yelled, "Get out!"
Elizabeth felt an inexplicable chill with that look.She stood up nervously and scurried out of his office.
A mocking smile flashed across William's face as he looked at her retreating figure.
Charles and Elizabeth were really shameless.
Were they trying to provoke him by using Valeria and Hardy's relationship? Well, he had to admit that he was really provoked! He wasn't just trying to scare Elizabeth.
In fact, he did it out of anger.
"Valeria, that d*mn woman! How dare she treat me like that?"
Elizabeth hurried out and returned to Charles' office.
Once she shut the door, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"That was scary.William can be really intimidating if he wishes too."
"Did he get angry?"
"He was livid.I didn't even say much, but he smashed the keyboard and monitor.”
"It's good that he's angry as it proves that he is still frustrated by this.We can put this to our advantage"
After Valeria was left behind at the office, Hardy was very accommodating towards Valeria.He even brought her for lunch at the Acma Corporation's cafeteria.
Hardy brought her to his private room for the meal.
Although having all the wonderful delicacies in front of her, Valeria had not much appetite.
It was different being with Hardy, compared to being with William.
She was very relaxed around William as she knew that he wouldn't play any tricks on her.
But with Hardy, it was quite unsettling for her.
She wasn't close to Hardy, but he was very gentle to her.She couldn't quite believe that this was his true colors.
In her mind, she could only remember how he looked at Ronald ghastly.She could tell that Hardy was disgusted with Ronald.
So why did he change his thoughts so quickly and agreed to the partnership? What on earth was Hardy planning? Valeria couldn't fathom his thought, so the best thing to do would be to keep her distance.
Hardy was polite and treated her well.
He even prepared and asked his secretary to decorate an office for her right next to his.It was strange to Valeria.
"Mr.Anthony.You don't have to be bothered about decorating the office.I can use the same office as your other designers."
"That won't do.Miss Brown, you are considered the representative of our partner.Of course, it wouldn't be right for you to sit with them.Besides, with your office next to mine, I can ask you about some matters any time I wish: Since he said so, Valeria could only accept whatever he decided.Hardy then asked his staff to put some things in the office so that Valeria could decorate the office herself.
Once he finished decorating, he returned to his office.
Since Hardy's attitude towards Valeria was just too different than usual, his secretary was very courteous to Valeria.She kept asking Valeria about how she wanted the office to be like.She even had to ask where to put a potted plant.
When she was still arranging everything when Paisley walked in, "What are you doing?"
"I'm decorating the office for the new designer” the secretary replied.
"Why didn't you set it up at the designers' office? Isn't this the CEO's office?" Paisley asked in confusion.
"This designer is from a different company, and she is here for the collaboration"
After hearing this, Paisley turned to look at Valeria.
She was in ordinary clothes, but her face was so stunning that people couldn't help but stop and stare.
