The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1773

David carefully watched Charles' face as he told him everything. He knew how serious this whole thing was. That was why he was so hesitant to tell Charles in the first place. He didn't know how to tell him properly.

Charles' face darkened as he listened to David. He tapped his fingers on the desk rhythmically and stared off into space. When David finished his report, Charles didn't say anything.

David didn't say another word either. He remained standing, waiting for Charles to speak.

"Knock, knock," someone's voice suddenly intruded from the door.

Charles and David both looked at the door.

"Come in," David said after Charles nodded at him.

Leila took a deep breath, pushed the door open, and walked in.

She knew about the leaked files long before David did. She didn't realize that it would be such a big deal. It seemed that Holley's plan was working.

"Leila, what's wrong?" David asked coldly as he looked at Leila.

She ignored David. Instead, she walked to Charles so that she was standing across from him.

Then she put down some files on Charles' desk. She looked into his eyes and said, "President Lu, I heard about the leaked documents online. Here's my solution: I think before it gets more serious, the first thing we need to do is go to our partner's company. I would suggest apologizing to them and coming up with a solution. David, I know you have a lot of connections with news agencies. Have them take down all of Shining Company's ads right away..."

Leila continued to share her ideas.

David never liked Leila. He just wrote her off as a pretty face, who knew nothing about business. She wouldn't be here in the first place if it weren't for Melissa. But Leila really impressed him today.

The scandal had just barely started, and Leila had already come up with solutions along with a drafted proposal. She was even quicker than David.

Charles wasn't really planning on listening to whatever Leila was going to say because he thought that she was only making trouble again.

However, he was surprised that Leila had come up with constructive suggestions to deal with the crisis at hand. He lifted his head and looked at Leila, who had a determined look on her face. Upon seeing this, he picked up the file she had placed on his desk and started reading it.

After a few minutes, Charles said to Leila, "Let's go with your plan."

Then Charles said to David, "Work with Leila, and find out who's behind all this."

"Yes, President Lu!" David answered immediately.

"Now, go back to work." Charles gestured for Leila and David to leave his office.

David and Leila exchanged glances before leaving.

As soon as David and Leila were out of the office, Leila smiled at David and said to him, "Thank you for helping me, David."

"I'm doing this for Charles and the company. You don't need to thank me," David said coldly.

Even though Leila had impressed him this time, that didn't mean that he was going to change how he felt about her.

David and Leila spent the entire day trying to deal with the crisis. They were very efficient as they quickly came up with a compensation plan for their partner before the issue could get even worse.
