Chapter 256
As the conversation ended, the room fell into silence.
But it didn't last long before Lucas broke it.
"I have tidied up. I'll go down first."
With that, he turned out of the room.
As he walked farther and farther away, Evelyn turned her head and stared at the empty door. Her eyes were full of complexity.
She didn't let Lucas wait long and soon went downstairs.
The two dined in silence.
When they finished eating, Lucas was ready to go to the company, but he found that Evelyn was dressed up, as if she was also going out. He frowned and said, "You are going out?" Evelyn nodded, "I haven't been to the company for several days. I'm going to have a look."
Actually, she didn't want to stay at Hawks' house, so she decided to go to the company.
Although her hand has not recovered yet, it didn't affect her work.
Lucas wanted her to have a rest at home, but when he saw the persistence in her eyes, he changed his mind: "Then I will send you there."
"I'm fine, I'll take a taxi. You go first."
Evelyn refused without thinking.
With that, she left, ignoring Lucas's bad look.
She thought a lot last night.
Now that she was back, she couldn't live in fantasy. She should face the reality.
And recently, she has been worrying about gain and loss, which made her feel that she didn't live like herself.
From today on, she needed to be self-reliance again and focus on her work. In the future, she may not be hurt too much.
Lucas didn't know what she was thinking, but he could also perceive her attitude change and feel her estrangement.
He couldn't understand why she was OK yesterday, and she became like this today.
He could not figure this out and only could let the matter go temporarily.
In the next two days, they returned to their peaceful life.
Evelyn went to work every day. Although the previous incident of beating people has subsided, she was repulsed by many people and was treat with contemptuous looks all day long.
Evelyn didn't care. The more they treated her with this attitude, the more she wanted to prove herself with her work.
Fortunately, her pay and gain were in direct proportion.
Although she was not welcomed in the company, the clothes she designed sold well in the company.
Many people were jealous and hated her when they saw the result.
But they didn't dare to do anything, let alone the strength of Evelyn. The company kept her after she made two big troubles. Everyone knew that someone was behind Evelyn, and they didn't dare to offend that person easily. Not mention that Evelyn was one of the shareholders of the company.
Of course, they didn't know about it, otherwise they wouldn't dare to reject Evelyn like this.
On this day, it was the meeting of the design department once a month.
Ji Yi organized all the people in the design department to meet in the conference room and talked about the main purpose of the meeting.
"The company plans to let our design department undertake a project, which is said to be medical protective clothing, and its fabric requirements are very strict. If we can do it well, then the protective clothing will be issued in the country, or even abroad, and the company will also give our design Department a point of turnover as a bonus according to the final performance."
As soon as she said this, everyone in the meeting room was getting excited.
A point of turnover. Although the number was small, it was total turnover. When it was distributed to them, it would be equal to their income of two or three months.
"Director, please rest assured, we will ensure the perfect completion of the project!"
No one would hate money. Many people guaranteed immediately.
Ji Yi listened to the crowd and motioned to them to be quiet: "Naturally, I believe we can do it well, but there is a problem that needs us to solve together."
When they heard this, they all looked serious at once. They asked "What's the problem, director?"
"It's the fabric of the protective clothing. At present, only one domestic company has it. If we want to make this protective clothing, we have to find their company to purchase it."
Ji Yi told them the problem, looked around and continued: "The other party is also a clothing company, Lowell Group."
When Evelyn heard these two words, she felt a little familiar.
Before she thought of it, Ji Yi said again: "As far as I know, Clyde, who is in charge of the clothing market, is the eldest son of Lowell family. He is an famous elite man in our city. I want to know if anyone sitting here knows that person. If we have a relationship, we may have a better negotiation."
When they heard this, they looked at each other.
"Is that OK, director? We both are clothing companies."
It meant that they had great horizontal competition. If they went to the Lowell Group and disclose this project, they would lose more than gain.
"Yes, director, I think it needs to be serious considered."
"I don't think it's possible for them to snatch this project away. After all, our company has already taken it, just in case they take the opportunity to raise the price." Evelyn listened to their words, and felt surprised.
Because she remembered that Clyde was the one who wanted to invite her to work as a designer in their company just when Lucas came back home..
When she thought of this, she suddenly felt embarrassed.
But thinking of the company's project, she raised her hand.
"I...I've met him several times. Maybe I can have a try."
As soon as she said this, everyone looked at her in amazement.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
"Oh, you know the person again. Nora, you really made a lot of friends."
Chloe didn't expect Evelyn to know such an important person. She immediately mocked her jealously.
Evelyn's face sank when she heard her meaningful words.
"Who I know is none of your business."
She talked back with a cold voice.
Ji Yi glanced at them and frowned slightly.
Actually, like Chloe, she didn't want Evelyn to do it.
However, she couldn't take her ideas and reality into consideration, so she had to choose the latter.
After all, she has just entered the company, and this is the first project she took over, so she must not mess it up. "Stop it. Designer Davis will try this."
She had a decision in her mind and announced it directly.
Chloe was not convinced. She wanted to refute, but before she could get out, she was blocked by Ji Yi's words.
"If you are not convinced, you can do it, but you must accomplish it."
All of a sudden, Chloe was quiet.
Ji Yi saw her quiet, then turned to Evelyn, warning: "Although I entrust you this project, you should not forget the lessons before. If you mess up the company's project and get everyone involved again, no matter who comes to protect you, I will not tolerate you to stay in the company!"
Evelyn was a little uncomfortable when she heard this.
But when she thought of what happened before, she was soon relieved.
"Don't worry, director Ji, I won't allow myself to make mistakes this time!"
She said so because she has decided to focus on her work and achieve something.
