Charlie said with a smile on the phone, "Tyler, what's your intention for taking such good care of Grace's matter?
"Sir, you're teasing me. What intention can I possibly have?" Tyler certainly refused to admit it and tried to reason out with Professor Ross, "I'm doing this for the sake of your career. In this way, the news can be spread to the public."
"You br*t." Professor Ross smiled meaningfully and said, "Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. You've fallen in love with that girl, right?"
"Ahem," Tyler coughed instantly upon hearing this. He cleared his throat and said, "Sir, quit joking. I'm a serious person."
"Are you shy?" Professor Ross teased.
"You're also a serious man," Tyler said again. "Please do me a favor by introducing some people to me."
"At first, I thought that she may be my disciple's future wife. Thus, It's my duty to help. But since you say that she is not, I have no reason to help you now," Professor Ross said.
Having been put in a difficult situation, Tyler quickly persuaded, "I have an ancient inkstone with me. If I am not mistaken, it's an object of many centuries ago. I have a bloodstone with me too. It's also from that era."
Hearing this, Charlie immediately said with excitement, "Give them to me and I'll have a look."
Tyler asked, "Can you do me the favor now?"
"Yes, of course." Professor Ross said without hesitation, "I'll contact the few reliable ones."
"Thank you, Sir," Tyler quickly said gratefully.
"Boy, even if you don't have an inkstone, I will still help you. Grace is not an outsider either. Since it's our business, I have to help you," Charlie said.
"I knew you'd help,” Tyler smiled and said. "But it was me who brought the matter up. She didn't say anything."
"However, the inkstone and the bloodstone are all prepared for you by Grace's chief editor. I'll send them to you later," Tyler continued.
"Is that so?" Charlie seemed to have heard it wrong and asked in disbelief, "She's giving it to me for free?"
"That's right," replied Tyler.
"If that's the case, I don't want it. I'll never take someone else's things for nothing," Charlie refused.
"Then, why don't you draw a painting for them?" Tyler suggested, "Isn't that a good idea to pay them back in their own coin?"
Charlie thought for a moment and responded, "No problem. However, the inkstone is way too valuable."
Tyler was quick to compromise, "Then, you can introduce a few more people for them to interview."
"We'll talk more about it when you're here," Charlie replied.
Shortly after, Grace came out and she heard Tyler was on the phone, but he ended the call just moments later.
When he saw Grace, Tyler asked, "Is the coffee ready?"
"Not yet," Grace shook her head and said, "But, did you ask Professor Ross to help me with the interview?"
Tyler nodded, "Since you made coffee for me, I have to thank you. I'll provide you with some interview resources."
Grace looked at Tyler and smiled. She sighed and said, "Thank you, Tyler."
"Don't mention it." Tyler leaned back and said, "Just hurry up and brew me the coffee, I can't wait for it."
"Alright, on your way," Grace answered.
After staying for over half an hour, Grace was ready to leave. Although Tyler wanted to send her back, Grace turned down his offer.
She took the company car back. When she arrived at the company's entrance, she saw a black Bentley car parked there.
Grace was immediately stunned and wanted to turn around to leave.
But the next moment, the car door opened.
She saw Heinz walking towards her quickly.
Her heart tightened at the sight of his tall figure approaching her as she didn't know what he was going to do.
Heinz's face was cold and sullen, and his eyes were filled with complex emotions, deeply fixated on her face.
Grace took a quick step back and subconsciously tried to avoid him.
She didn't know what he was going to do. She only felt that he was dashing towards her with a tempestuous gaze.
Grace turned around and wanted to run away. The next second, Heinz grabbed her and carried her back without saying a word. In an instant, they were in front of the car.
