Chapter 340
Emma’s reaction was too obvious. Susan looked at them in confusion.
She wondered, ‘What’s wrong? Did something happen?‘
“Miss Garcia, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future.” Eason raised his eyebrows and reached out
his hand.
Susan was stunned.
She knew that Emma had never liked to touch others. Eason was just being polite, but Emma might not be willing to shake hands with him.
Susan was trying to find an excuse to ease the awkwardness when Emma trembled, stretched out her hand, and gently held Eason’s hand.
Although she only shook hands with him for a moment, she withdrew her hand like a frightened deer.
However, Susan was still a little surprised, and then she chuckled.
It seemed that Emma had a good impression of Eason. In this way, Susan didn’t have to worry about
their cooperation.
“Miss Garcia,” Eason said directly. “Are you here to hand in the proposal? I wonder if I can have a look.”
Emma nodded in a panic.
It just so happened that she had printed out a few copies of her proposal. So she handed two of them to
Susan and Eason.
Susan was not a professional.
She looked at it for a while, her mind full of admiration.
However, Eason was reading it slowly and carefully.
He sat aside and looked at the proposal for an hour before looking at Emma.
Emma lowered her head nervously.
Although she was timid, Eason had changed his opinion of her.
Emma was indeed a genius planner.
Her proposal might not be perfect in terms of form and structure.
However, the world she built was not only creative but also logical. It could be said to be a top–notch proposal.
“What do you think?” Susan looked at Eason.
Anyway, she couldn’t give any other comments except for “awesome“.
Eason said, “It’s a good business plan, but I think there are still some details that need to be improved.”
Susan hurriedly said, “Then you can sort them out and send an email to Emma.”
Eason frowned. “Why? Can we not talk face to face?”
Susan said, “Emma is introverted. She might prefer communicating in writing.”
“Introverted?” Eason stared at Emma and said, “I know you are very talented at planning. However, you need to work with others to complete a game project. Indeed, most of the work can be done through written communication. However, have you considered efficiency? If we discuss a problem face to face, we might be able to come up with a perfect plan in 10 minutes. Yet, if we only use email, it may take a few days.
Do you have to waste so much time just because you are introverted?”
Eason’s words were a little harsh. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Susan hurriedly said, “This is what I promised Emma.”
She kept winking at Eason, hoping that he would stop talking about this topic.
Susan knew about Emma’s condition. She felt that Emma’s talent was worth her wasting time.
Yet Emma’s illness was her privacy. Susan knew about it, but she couldn’t tell anyone without Emma’s
consent.
Eason was unaware of it, so he was so aggressive.
Eason noticed Susan’s eyes, but he did not think he was wrong. He looked at Emma and said, “I hope that you can be more dedicated.”
Hearing his words, Emma couldn’t even raise her head, and she
ven began to tremble.
Seeing this, Susan quickly stood up and said, “I told you that I had promised Emma. In the future…”
“Ms. Miller,” Emma said softly.
“Emma, don’t worry. I…” Susan was about to say something.
“Thank you, but I think what Mr. Nicholas said makes sense,” said Emma softly.
She pursed her lips and plucked up the courage to look up. “I… I’m willing to give it a try.”
Susan was a little amazed. “Emma, don’t force yourself if you can’t do it.”
“Ms. Miller, I want to give it a try.” Emma’s voice was soft but firm.
Seeing her like this, Eason finally stopped frowning.
Since Emma was so determined, Susan did not say anything else.
However, Susan was still a little worried.
In fact, Emma’s depression was very serious.
It took great courage for her to come out and work.
But now, she suddenly had to go further and talk to othere face to face
Susan remembered that the first time she had cooperated with Emma, her eyes were full of horror. Susan was worried.
“In this case, if there’s no problem, I want to have a private chat with you,” Eason said.
“Okay,” Emma replied gently.
Susan moved her lips, hesitating about whether to say something, but she was afraid that if she spoke, it would damage Emma’s confidence.
After dithering for a long time, Susan did not say anything.
Eason followed Emma to her office.
After entering the office, Eason closed the door behind him.
Emma’s body tensed up.
She tried her best to relax.
Emma didn’t want Eason to notice her abnormality.
She thought, ‘If he knows that I have such a terrible disease, he will definitely hate me and stay away
from me.‘
Emma took a deep breath and plucked up the courage to say, “I’m really sorry about last night, Mr. Nicholas. I watched the video later, You you stayed to take care of me out of kindness.”
Eason raised his eyebrows. “We’re only talking about business now.”
Eason was not a petty person.
Although he was angry at that time, when he thought about it later, it was normal for a single girl to be
more vigilant.
“Okay,” Emma replied a little nervously.
Eason took out the proposal and put it on the desk.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Emma still standing far away. He frowned and said, “Come closer. How can we talk so far apart?”
Emma thought, ‘Closer?‘
With a blush, she slowly walked over.
In fact, they were not very close to each other.
However, it was rare for Emma to be so close to others.
She thought that she would be afraid and flustered.
But such feelings did not appear. On the contrary, she was a little timid, shy, and even inexplicably delighted.
Emma thought, ‘Is this… the feeling of being in love? It’s amazing!’
“The biggest problem with your proposal is that it’s not detailed enough. Look here…” Eason, who did not know what Emma was thinking, started to explain.
After all, this game was jointly produced by the Storm Group and his company. It was the most important project this year. Eason also hoped that nothing would go wrong with this project.
Emma quickly composed herself and listened carefully.
Although she was not used to it at first, when Eason talked about business, his words were objective and specific, so Emma soon understood.
The two discussed for an entire day.
Meanwhile, they modified it. In the evening, Emma directly made a new proposal.
Looking at the results, Emma was a little happy
a
This proposal was the best one in her life.
→ Eason looked at the dark sky and said, “I made you work overtime. Let me treat you to dinner.”
Emma panicked instantly. “No. I was out of line last night, and I troubled you for so long today. I should be the one treating you to dinner.”
Eason raised his brows. “I don’t have the habit of letting a woman treat me to two meals in a row. Also, what happened last night is already in the past, so we’d better not mention it again. Let’s go eat.”
Emma hesitated for a moment.
Her rationality told her that she should stay away from Eason.
However, emotionally, she couldn’t refuse him.
After all, he brought different colors to her black–and–gray world.
After a long time, Emma nodded slightly and said, “Okay.”
She thought, ‘Let me enjoy the colorful world for a while longer.
‘In this way, even if there is only darkness in my world for the rest of my life, I can hold on longer by recalling these colorful moments.”
