Chapter 76 Slightly Altered Opinion of Her
It was especially so after they heard of R-Alan Groups plans.
Monica got even more anxious, and she worked even during lunchtime. Besides coming up with the designs, she monitored the quality of others’ work as well. She even had to filter out the bad designs, for the queen of Brundela must have a more refined taste than her.
“I heard that R-Alan Group is targeting our design of the Brundela Royal New Year’s Eve, but Mr. Fox resolved that issue, Miss Keller, is it true?”
Monica was the vice president of the company, and she never engaged in gossip.
However, since someone asked, she replied to calm them. “If you want a spot on the global stage of designers, you have to fully commit yourself to your works and speak through them.”
The person was speechless at that. “Understood, Miss Keller.”
Monica looked at everyone, then said, “You should make use of every second you have because we are submitting the drafts soon. The queen of Brundela will be coming to hear our design concept.”
“What? So soon?”
She’ll be here in person?”
“Miss Keller, when is she coming?”
Compared to their anticipation and anxiety, Monica seemed quite calm even though she had just received the news herself.
She said, “Soon, not more than 5 days from now.”
Everyone gasped in fear, but they were also excited at the same time.
After all, they would be meeting the queen of Brundela. What a great honor it would be!
Monica carried herself proudly, crossing her arms as she stood next to thenovelxo.com fast update glass doors. The queen will be here on vacation, but she’s coming to our company to have a look at our designs. She is treating the New Year’s Eve design quite seriously.”
“Understood!”
“From tonight onward, we’ll all have to work overtime.”
Everyone was engrossed in their work, nervous yet excited. They all hoped that their work could catch the queen’s eye.
At night, at Emerald Harbor.
After the injection in his vein, Stanley took a hot bath, then put on his sleepwear. He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the master bedroom, a glass of wine in hand.
His deep eyes were trained on the yard. No headlights were shining in, nor were there any sounds of cars. Everything was silent.
Samuel and Pamela leaned against the door, their tiny minds filled with gossip.
“Samuel, do you think Daddy is missing Mommy? Pamela turned around and asked in an extremely soft
voice.
Samuel, however, was talking to himself in suspicion. “Did Daddy and Mommy get into a fight? Is that why Mommy left?”
“It might be possible.”
Stanley took a sip of the wine, slightly lost in his thoughts.
The two children quietly crept to the children’s room as Pamela analyzed, “Mommy knows that we miss Daddy, so even if she got into a fight with Daddy, she won’t tell us.”
Samuel nodded in agreement.
Pamela was upset and suddenly felt like crying. “Sam, I miss Mommy…
“Don’t cry.” Samuel behaved like a tiny adult as he hastily held his sister in his arms. “I promised Mommy that I will protect you. Don’t worry, everything will be okay.”
“Will Daddy give in? Will he listen to a woman?” In Pamela’s eyes, Stanley was a lofty deity everyone feared.
“He will, Samuel comforted her, “I’ll talk to Daddy about it tomorrow! Also, I have an idea to get them back together again.”
“What is it?”
“I told you the plan at the company, didn’t I?” Samuel said, “It will work.”
“But-
“No buts,” Samuel said earnestly, “You have to keep it a secret.” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
“Okay.”
In the master bedroom.
Stanley put down the empty glass and picked up the tablet, navigating to Chloe’s profile.
A relevant news article popped up.
Surprisingly, this person was Melinda.
She had both fame and fortune, but she chose to help the poor in the villages.
If so, it would be reasonable for her to be wealthy. Samuel and Pamela didn’t lack anything, and even their schoolbags were a brand that cost almost a thousand each.
She was the typical mother who would rather suffer herself than cause her children to suffer.
Stanley had slightly altered his opinion of her, and he admired her a little more.
His phone rang, so he took up his phone to glance at the incoming call screen.
“Are you sleeping?” When he answered the call, he heard Monica’s gentle voice speaking.
He didn’t reply. If he answered the call, it automatically meant that he wasn’t sleeping.

However, to Monica, Stanley was already doing her a favor by not rejecting the call. Monica spoke in serious voice, reporting. Tve sent you all the works by the design department, so have a look at them. when you’re free. The queen is coming, after all.”
“Sure.”
It was just a simple word, but his attractive voice warmed her heart like a warm current.
