What Hayden said made Benjamin to swallow all his unspoken words. Looking at Hayden’s expression of inquiry, he nodded.
“Yes, it’s my mother.”
“It’s not good for you to have a mother complex, because girls mind it so much now.”
Hayden said with concern, and then took her bag.
“I have business to take care of, so I have to go now.”
“I drive you there.” Benjamin stood up.
“No.” Hayden took a glance at the cook house.
“Stella was going to take a pizza, so you stay here and wait for her to live up to her thoughts. I know the way out. Don’t worry.”
Then Hayden turned to the door of the shop.
“Where is your sister?”
Stella put the hot pizza on the table. The iron plate hit against the table with a thud, which gave him quite a scare. “What are you doing? You are a girl, can be much gentler? Do you want to scare me to death?”
With his words, Stella’s smile froze suddenly and then shot him a look.
“Don’t be so ungrateful. Either you take it or I feed the dog with it.”
“No one will marry you this way.”
“You rest assured. You will be my bridegroom only when all men in this world were dead.”
Benjamin suddenly paused and then he anyhow thought of what Hayden just said to him. He bowed his head and smiled.
“What are you laughing at?” Stella was in a daze.
Benjamin, however, laughed silently and ate the pizza, missing to see the girl’s face turning red for the sake of his tender smile.
Stellalooked at him up and down, thinking he did have a good looking.
Back to the company, Hayden went to see Dante.
“How about the order?”
“We have entrusted a manufacturer to work around the lock. But we are still pretty tight for time, because the Joann Group wants the goods within one month. I am concerned with the quality, so we have the overseers to look over the workers’ shoulder day and night.”
“The overseers should be professional in clothing.” Hayden advised.
Dante nodded.
“So the designers have to be the overseers.”
“But you also have to be busy the Design Competition these days, can you handle it?”
Hayden was a little worried.
In order to regain the reputation of Green Lemon Clothing, the designer team under the leadership of Dante signed up for the National Costume Design Competition. These days, the designers were all busy for the competition.
“Fine.” Dante looked calm, “The competition is not so troublesome, and the overseers don’t have to work all day long. Some of them could go and carry out spot-checks every day.”
Seeing Dante’s face full of confidence, Hayden said nothing more. She nodded, “Ok, now I give you carte blanche in this matter, and you just do it.”
Dante nodded and then went to arrange the schedule for the designers to take turns to be the overseers.
In the whole Green Lemon Clothing, there was no one more serious at work than Dante, including Hayden.
After she left the design department, the assistant Anna caught up with her and reminded her of the AW business party next night.
