If she wanted to be with Gareth, he would have to give up his hopes of being with her.
He had wanted to pursue Elisa, but now…
He could only respect her decision and wish her well.
Elisa's eyebrows furrowed when she heard what he said.
"Why are you asking me this? Is it because of the news reports?"
"Yes," he said simply.
Will was direct with her.
"I have no intention of getting back together with Gareth," she replied firmly, leaving no room for doubt.
Will felt a wave of relief wash over him as soon as she answered.
"Would you be interested in the project in the western suburbs?" he asked.
Will had known Elisa for years and knew Elisa like the back of his hand.
If she told him she had no plans to get back together with Gareth, it meant they were not together.
As long as Gareth was not in the picture, he still had a chance to pursue her romantically.
After all, he would have more chances to meet up with her if she was willing to take up the project.
His mention of the project piqued her interest. "What project is happening there?"
Will could tell she was interested from how her voice perked up.
"The western suburbs is where ZF Corporation is focusing their development efforts, and the Darcey Group owns the land. I believe that if you were to take over the project, you would gain the trust of the people at Benett Corporation."
Even though she had demoted Norman to a regular employee, he still had a lot of tricks up his sleeve. He had many trusted followers in the corporation.
She needed to establish her power and influence in the corporation. The corporation was also in need of a change in employees.
If this was ZF Corporation's flagship project, why would she give up this opportunity?
She nodded in agreement and considered it seriously, "Sure. We can talk about this later tonight."
Will's lips curled up into a smile when she agreed to the project. "Alright, I'll send you our meeting location soon."
"Okay." Elisa had no objection.
Elisa immediately fell silent—it was Norman's voice.
She didn't turn around, but the footsteps drew nearer and stopped beside her.
Finally, she caught a glimpse of him from the corner of her eye.
Norman was wearing a white shirt, trousers, and black leather shoes.
He had an employee badge around his neck, and his gray coat was draped over his arms.
Although she had been in Moranta, she was up-to-date on the ongoings of Benett Corporation.
Norman still carried himself like the CEO, and even the people believed he would reclaim his position.
"I haven't been to the office in a while, so it's not surprising that the new employees didn't know who I was," Elisa said calmly.
"That's not right. Didn't you tell me that Benett Corporation has strict rules? Benett Corporation would lose its credibility if this happened in front of someone else."
Norman spoke slowly and firmly, but his voice was filled with exasperation.
