Roxanna from the research center had been in Isaac's office for quite a while now, with no signs of any activity coming from within.
Although the higher-ups were worldly-wise individuals, they were well aware of the type of person Isaac was.
There was no reason for him to have a woman talking in his office for such an extended period.
Inside the office, Roxanna blinked, taking the teacup. "Thank you, Mr. Quill. Mr. Quill, do you have any thoughts on our upcoming collaboration? Feel free to share them with me."
She had just felt thirsty, and Isaac had promptly poured tea for her. It was probably his basic etiquette when dealing with guests. Roxanna made a conscious effort not to let her mind wander and maintained a neutral expression while looking at Isaac.
"I'll have a basic contract drafted, which will be sent to the research center for your review. Also, I'll engage with the overseas research center to discuss the collaboration further. If all goes well, our legal department will draft a formal contract. Of course, the terms of collaboration will be refined and sent to the research center as well. You don't need to worry, Miss Miller," Isaac said, nodding. He laid out his thoughts; if they were to collaborate, he wanted to display a committed attitude.
Roxanna's heart leaped. From the looks of it, Isaac was definitely inclined toward collaboration. If that was the case, the pressure on Nicole and the others from overseas would be considerably reduced.
Roxanna from the research center had been in Isaac's office for quite a while now, with no signs of any activity coming from within.
Roxanna felt a surge of happiness. Usually, her emotions would show on her face in some way.
"Very well, then, Mr. Quill. I'll go back and await further news from you," Roxanna replied.
Isaac nodded.
After shaking hands with Isaac, Roxanna left his office, documents in hand.
As soon as she stepped out of the office, she realized that almost every pair of eyes in the vicinity was focused on her.
Wait, have I done something out of the ordinary?
Roxanna pretended not to notice and continued walking forward until she reached the elevator. Only then did she let out a sigh of relief.
This company is a bit strange. I'm just here to discuss business in the office. Why do I have to endure this scrutiny from the employees?

The readers' comments on the novel: Right Person, Wrong Time
What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
