Evelyn paused slightly upon hearing the words "Mr. Grant's girlfriend".
So, Lucas was more than willing to acknowledge his relationship with Tiffany within the company.
He openly declared his love, granted Tiffany unrestricted access within the company, and ensured she felt completely secure and recognized.
In Lucas' eyes, only Tiffany was worthy of such treatment.
Justine scoffed. "Girlfriend? So, she's not actually an employee of TechNova Group?"
Tiffany smiled. "Lucas granted me special permission to study on-site operations at TechNova Group. I'm not an official employee, but I'll be assisting in project evaluations."
In other words, Tiffany could also voice her opinion during this discussion about manufacturing materials?
Evelyn frowned slightly.
Lucas had given Tiffany so many privileges.
She wasn't an employee, yet she could freely enter restricted sample rooms, review manufacturing details and 3D model prints, and even participate in key production projects?
Jacob stepped in. "Rest assured, Ms. Moore is highly capable. Mr. Grant has authorized her full access to all the project details. If any issues arise, he will take full responsibility."
Justine bristled with anger. She was furious for Evelyn's sake. She felt that it was utterly unjust for her friend.
They were still in the process of finalizing their divorce; it wasn't even official yet! Yet Lucas was already grooming his mistress for legitimacy? The audacity!
Evelyn kept quiet.
She was merely reflecting on her relationship with Lucas. She had once thought that Lucas was cold and distant, strictly adhering to rules and regulations. That was why he never allowed her to overstep the boundaries.
He had never let her visit his office.
Never allowed her to greet him publicly at the company.
Never permitted her to reveal even the slightest information about her husband.
Never involved her in any projects at Grant Group.
She realized now that it was never about company rules. But rather, it was because she simply wasn't worthy of any special privileges.
Even if she revealed her identity as Mrs. Grant, she still didn't hold as much weight as the woman Lucas favored—Tiffany.
"If we're going to discuss component details, Ms. Scott may need to wait a moment. I need to inspect the progress in the sample room first. Mr. Jenkins will entertain you in the meantime." Tiffany nodded gracefully, casting a knowing glance at Jacob.
Jacob immediately smiled. "How about I take you both to see the 3D design drawings first?"
