Austin mentioned that he owned a business and a few companies. Besides, his mien and looks made it evident that he was not an ordinary person. It was natural that Mr. and Mrs. O’Connor had ideas.
They did not want Isabella to move to another country for marriage. She did not like it either. However, her parents would consider getting Austin to marry into their family out of desperation.
“No. There’s no way Uncle Hadrian and Aunt Delphine would’ve asked me to say these words. Austin is newly employed. Everyone doesn’t know him well enough yet.”
Tati smiled. “My imagination has been running wild from reading novels when I can’t sleep at night. I can’t help immersing myself into the storylines.”
Isabella said, “If you still have difficulty falling asleep, it means that you aren’t busy enough. You shall be in charge of the project with Empire Group.”
Tati replied, “I don’t want to take over that project, Isa. Miles Thornton is the project leader from Empire Group. We’ve been enemies since we were young?”
“Why did Miles join Empire Group again? Oh, right. The CEO is his uncle. He left Thornton Group because he wasn’t satisfied working under his elder brother. I guess he’s working at Empire Group now.”
Tati said, “That guy looks like a gangster and is unserious. I feel like fighting him whenever I see him. I’m afraid he might make things difficult for me on purpose if I’m put in charge of this project.
“I’ve never seen Miles being serious in front of anyone. Only you can keep him under control. Not even his elder brother can do it.”
Tati thought Isabella had a dominant aura. When she put on a stern expression, she could exert pressure without getting angry. Her gaze was as sharp as a sword, making people nervous. As a result, no one dared to misbehave before her.
“I promise I’ll stop praising Austin in front of you, Isa. I won’t overthink or make up stories again, okay? I’m actually swamped. You know just how busy I am. Please don’t hand over the Empire Group’s project to me. I don’t want to interact with Miles.”
Isabella faked a smile. “I didn’t even know that Miles was in charge of that project, yet you did. This means you two have been keeping tabs on each other.”
“It’s a small world in Satbury. We’re all in the same social circle and can meet each other easily. Miles is the only person I haven’t been able to get along with since childhood. It’s a given that I’d pay more attention to him. Who knows if I might fall into my enemy’s hands or his into mine one day?
