Chapter 371

Her eyes shifted toward Oliver, who was looking elsewhere.It was obvious to Mabel that he was not interested in her.She was contemplating on whether to stay with Julian, who was spending a lot of money, or keep trying with the cold Oliver.Clearly, she would never catch Oliver’s attention, but it was still possible with Julian.She looked at me and tried to speak. I understood immediately and patted her on the shoulder. “It’s your choice. We’re leaving.”Julian was feeling proud of himself, and he shouted after us as we walked out, “You all saw it. This restaurant will never let the Freeman family in again. Put up a sign saying the Freeman family and dogs aren’t allowed!”I could not be bothered with what he said. It did not affect us.As we reached the door, we saw Cecilia rush out of her car in anger.She was surprised to see us, and she said, “What are you doing here, Cassia?”I did not feel like talking, and she did not have time for a conversation either.She barely gl

Chapter 372

We headed to the parking lot, where Mr. Pepper was waiting for us in the car.As we drove past the restaurant, Cecilia suddenly threw herself in front of the car, with her arms stretched out.It had only been a few days, but she was acting like a maniac. Thankfully, Mr. Pepper was not driving fast, or else, he would have hit her.“Oh, my God!” Mr. Pepper slammed on the brakes. Luckily, we all had our seatbelts on. “What’s going on? She scared me half to death.”Cecilia stormed over and banged on the window. “Cassia!”I rolled it down, and her furious face was right in front of me. “Cassia, is this your doing?”“What does it have to do with me?” I laughed. “Are you crazy, Cecilia?”“It has to be you! Why else would Julian lose his mind and buy that dumb restaurant?”“Go ask your brother.”“Cassia, you’re ruthless! How could someone as vicious as you be a mother?” Cecilia screamed and tried to grab me through the window.Oliver immediately pulled me behind and pushed her away.

Chapter 373

Oliver calmly listened to her. After he asked for the address, he hung up and called the police.I think he handled it well. If I had not suddenly felt sorry for Mabel and decided to take her with us in the afternoon, that would not have happened to her.It was better to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future.The next morning, I checked the system before going to the office. My project application was still untouched. No one had reviewed it.My dad called me last night to ask if everything was going well, and I told him that it was fine.I did not tell him the truth. My dad’s influence might have helped me once, but I could not rely on him all the time. I needed to prove myself to those people.Otherwise, the old geezers would say that I could only run crying to my dad for help. They might even say it to my face instead of behind my back.I ran into Zach in the parking lot. Freeman Corporation shared the same lot with the building across the street, so it was not surprising to

Chapter 374

Benjamin’s phone rang again, and he said, “Sorry, Ms. Freeman.”“It’s fine. Go ahead.”He left to take the call, and I sipped my tea.Soon after, my phone buzzed as well. It was a message from Zach. [The florist delivered hydrangeas today. Do you like them?]I instinctively turned around and picked up the binoculars on my desk. I saw a red hydrangea bouquet on Zach’s desk. They were in a white vase.I smiled, but I did not reply.He did not think that I still liked him, did he?He was probably just used to me having a crush on him.When Benjamin returned, his hair was a mess. He even made a few mistakes in his report.I marked the errors in red and showed them to him. “Is something wrong at home?”He scratched his head, which made his hair even messier. “Sorry, Ms. Freeman. I shouldn’t be handling personal stuff at work.”“We work for a better life.” I smiled. “Is it about your son’s kindergarten registration?”“Um.” He looked down. “Registration starts today. I thought tha

I smiled and gave him a piece of curried fish. “Mr. Hanson has all the resources but doesn’t know how to use them. If he did, he would’ve started his own business by now.”Benjamin looked up at me. “That’s true.”“Mr. Harrison handles HR and finance?”“Yes. Mr. Harrison and Mr. Hanson control the most important parts of the company. They’re powerful when they stick together.”No wonder they looked down on us heirs. To them, we were just lucky, while they were the ones who built the company.“And Mr. Lewis—”“Let’s take it slow. You’re telling me too much at once, and I can’t keep up.” After I was done eating, I put away my utensils and said, “Take your time eating.”I dropped off my tray and ran into Mr. Hanson as I walked out. He was with some other executives. He walked ahead with his hands behind his back, like the boss.When he saw me, he ignored me. I did the same and walked past him.“She’s got some nerve. She didn’t even say hi to Mr. Hanson,” one of his people said in

Chapter 376

“Ms. Freeman, Cecilia is something else. She came crying to Mr. Gordon. When I went in with tea, I noticed that she had a bruise on her face.”Fame had probably hit her. Julian spent twenty million last night, so Fame took out his anger on Cecilia.It was sad when you thought about it. This top socialite had become some rich guy’s mistress and a victim of abuse.She ruined the Cameron Hill project, but Zach did not punish her, even though he lost a fortune.Cecilia seemed to have Zach in the palm of her hand. She cheated on him, yet she still went running to him for help when she was in trouble.“What did she want from Zach?” I asked.“To complain about her problems. She was crying a lot.”“What did Zach do?”“Mr. Gordon just sat at his desk in silence. After a while, Cecilia left.”Hearing about Cecilia’s drama made one question everything.“Alright, Cecilia—” As I started to speak, Benjamin knocked and entered. “Ms. Freeman, Ms. Wilson is here to see you.”Could it be Ceci

Chapter 377

“Yeah, I’m busy making a sign that says, ‘No entry for Austin, Cecilia, and mad dogs.’”“If mad dogs could read, they wouldn’t be biting everyone.” He actually cracked a joke, which was rare.I glared at him. “What do you want?”“I mentioned it on the phone yesterday. It’s about the Cameron Hill project.”“Don’t talk to me about anything above a hundred bucks.”He crossed his arms and stared at me gloomily.“Stop giving me that cold stare.” I felt like throwing the crystal display on the desk at him.“Your position has changed. Everything you do now has to benefit Freeman Corporation,” he lectured me. “I’ve looked into the Cameron Hill project thoroughly. If it didn’t benefit Freeman Corporation, I wouldn’t bring it to you.”“Cut the act. You want me to help you take the project from Gordon Corporation, don’t you?” I knew what he was up to. All businesspeople played games, but I used to think that Austin was different.“It’s a win-win situation, right? Besides, Gordon Corporat

Chapter 378

After Austin left, I sent Sophie a message. [Austin just came to discuss the Cameron Hill project.]Sophie replied, [Hasn’t he been trying to get that for a while?]Benjamin booked a seafood bistro opposite Freeman Corporation for me. I sent the location to Tyler’s driver and went there early to wait.I ordered the food based on Tyler’s preference. While I was going over the menu with the manager, Tyler arrived.He walked in confidently and reminded me of a middle-aged Zach for a moment. Out of all his sons, Zach looked and acted the most like him.Although Tyler did not show it much, I knew that he cared about Zach the most.I was about to stand up, but he motioned for me to remain seated.“Tyler,” I greeted him.He smiled and nodded. “Traffic was a little bad. Have you been waiting long?”“I just finished ordering. Let me know if everything’s okay.”“You always make good picks.” He handed his coat to the waiter and sat across from me.Tyler was a serious man, but he woul

“Yeah?” I mumbled while I chewed on my pie. “Go ahead, Tyler.”“The guy from Jenkins Corporation...”As soon as Tyler spoke, I knew that he was talking about Austin. He must have learned that Austin wanted the Cameron Hill project.“Austin,” I said.“Yeah, Austin. He has good judgment, and Cameron Hill’s a solid project. If it works out, it’s a guaranteed win. He came to see you today, didn’t he?”“Yes, he came to discuss a partnership.”“What did you say?” Tyler looked at me.“I was about to reach out to you, but you came to me first.”Tyler smiled and said, “So, you’re thinking about having our three companies work together?”“We can split the profits and share the risks. There won’t be added pressure on our own companies, and we all benefit.”Tyler looked at me for a while, and I just focused on eating my dessert. Honestly, I liked the pie crust more than the filling.Then, Tyler said, “You can finish the crust. Don’t worry about the filling.”“Is that okay?”“Why not?

Chapter 380

“That’s too soon.”“You still have twelve hours until 10 a.m. The budget plan doesn’t need to be detailed. We just need an estimate, so it won’t take long.” I felt tired and yawned. “That’s it for today.”After the meeting, Sophie and I went home. “Are we really working with Austin?” she asked.“Yeah, and since you’re in charge of the real estate branch, you’ll handle the project.”Sophie was surprised. “I’ve never worked on such a big project before.”“You have a team. They can help you. This way, you’ll work closely with Austin.”“Who wants to work closely with him?” Sophie quickly responded.I was not sure if she was being honest. I was so tired, but I still had to report to my dad later.We bumped into Zach in the parking lot. Since both our buildings shared the same parking lot, we would probably see each other a lot.“Out so late?” he asked.“We just finished,” I replied.Sophie came up to us and said, “Excuse me.”She stood between us, and Zach stepped aside.Just b
