“Sprak “Tomian said impatiently 

Sensing the temion in his voice, billy cautiously replied, “The properties in Coaska Heights are all sold out, and im secondhand units are no longer available.” 

Billy braced himself for the reprimand as he knew he had failed to complete the task his hoss had assigned. 

“I’otine, Jost po ahead and arrange a meeting with the head of the provincial hospital, Mr. Or frien 

Damian didn’t seem to be upset, which caught hilly off guard. He quickly asked, “Is this the hospital project jointly developed by Seabourke Architectural Institute 

“Yes, it’s such a good pucken, in Howard repup should have a stake in it. 

The next day was the weekend. 

Whitney had worked late into the night and was only able to retum home in the early hours of the moming. As she was drowsily sleeping, herphone by the bedside started ringing 

She was so exhausted that she let the ringtone keep blaring. After a while, she finally managed to answer, though her eyes were barely open “Ms. Spencer, Mr. Howard Senioris ill. Please come back quickly,” 

Isaac’s anxious voice came through the phone. Whinney immediately woke up 

She remembered how Elijah had seemed unwell the last time she saw him at Damian’s villa. He had been coughing a lot that day. She quickly mashed through her momine routine and lett. 

It was clear he had also received the same call from ar 

Across from her apartment, Noel also stepped out, dissed incasual attire. It w 

The unpleasantness from yesterday still lingered, and the atmosphere between them immediately became awkward. 

In the elevator, Whitney took out her phone and casually scrolled through it. 

Neither of them said a wood. 

Suddenly, Noel’s phone rang 

“Mr. Howard, the renderings are ready, along with the latest plans and designs. They’ve all been approved.” 

The quiet elevator was filled with the voice coming from Noel’s phone, which unknowingly caught Whitney’s attention. 

The latest designs and plans?-Whitney thought 

Noel’s voler was calm and steady as he replied, “Indorm everyone that these’ll be a meeting on Monday.” 

“Will the meeting be at Seabourke Architectural Institute or Universal Architecture? 

“Seabourke And “ectural Institute ” 

*Understood, Mr. Howard. I’ll send out the notification now.” 

Once the call ended, Whitney noticed that Noel was still busy with his phone, so she quickly averted her gaze. 

“Did you hear everything?” Suddenly, Noel’s voice came from beside her. 

Whitney’s cheeks instantly flushed. He knew she had been eavesdropping. She wanted nothing more than to sink into the floor. 

“It’s not that I was eavesdropping, but the elevator was so quiet, it would’ve been hard not to hear,” Whitney said. 

Noel tumed his head to look at her. His gaze swept overher, and it felt as thought he could see right through her 

Whitney focused intently on the numbers in the elevator, feeling like they were moving slower thailever, 

The elevator door dinged when it reached the basement floor. As the doors opened, Whitney quickly darted out, almost like a rabbití 

Just as she reached her car, her phone rang. It was a call from Amy, 

“Make preparation. On Monday, you’re coming with me to Seabourke Architectural Institute for a meeting.” Any’s voice was cold and tim 

Whitney immediately thought of what she had overheard in the elevator. “I’m going to she asked, surprised. 

After all, she was only an assist to the designer who just started work a few days ago. She was suprised that she was even qualified to attend such an important 

meeting. 

“Your design concept was adopted, and you’ve made an impression on Mr. Howard, Given your talent, who else should I take if not you?” Amy’s tone was sharp. doping with sarcasm. 

Whitney ignored the sarcasm in Amy’s solce, focusing instead on the content of the message. She was stunned and almost couldn’t believe it 

Noel had told her that fer concept was just aminspiration, so she was surprised that it had been adopted. 

Amy’s voice became even colder as she instructed, “Witte out a detailed proposal. You’d better draw up a design too. You might need to speak at the meeting on Monday. Perpare well, and don’t embarrass me.” 

With that, Amy mindedtliecall. 

” 

It took Whitney few moments to proves trombet shock. 

In the elevator, Noel had only instructed the person on the plane to send out the message, but he hadn’t mentioned anything about telling Amy to bring her along. 

NAMA 110 Ung you mean byenthing Clearly 

That meant he had sent Amy a private message. So, he hadn’t just been fiddling with his phone earlier.
