“Of course,” Nina said, a little surprised. “But won’t that interfere with your other work?”For a meeting at this level, her attendance should have been enough. It usually wouldn’t require someone of Daniel’s rank. After all, whenever Daniel appeared, he was usually there on Leo’s behalf.“I have time,” Daniel said with a smile.Even if he didn’t, he would have made time. Everything else could be pushed back.That was Leo’s direct order.In fact, Leo had originally planned to attend in person. He had even made most of the arrangements ahead of time. But for some reason, that morning, he had suddenly told Daniel to go instead.Daniel wouldn’t ask why.And Leo certainly wouldn’t explain.Just like now, as he sat restlessly in his office, he wouldn’t tell anyone the truth.At first, Leo had wanted to attend because he wanted to be there for Nina.After all, this was her first project meeting. He had wanted to back her up.But that morning, after learning that James would be th

Yvonne didn’t care whether Nina was right.She didn’t care what the correct version should have been either.All she cared about was that Nina had refused to show her any respect in front of so many people today. In Yvonne’s mind, Nina was deliberately putting her down just to make herself look good.So Yvonne still refused to admit there was anything wrong with her work. Instead, she deliberately twisted Nina’s point.“Experimental variation is completely normal,” Yvonne said. “I think anyone who works in research would know that. So using one piece of data or one section of wording to dismiss an entire research result is extremely unreasonable.”Nina didn’t let Yvonne drag her off track.She stayed firm.“You can interpret it that way if you want, but that’s only your interpretation. When it comes to project execution, my requirements are what matter.”“Why?” Yvonne demanded, unconvinced.She was used to being arrogant, so even in a setting like this, such an inappropriate q

The initial surprise of seeing her here had already worn off.Now, all James felt was the irritation of realizing he had been played, along with a sense of defeat and loss of control he didn’t even want to admit.“Are you done?” Nina looked at him with disgust. “We’re in public. If I scream, someone will come running.”“Go ahead,” James said, clearly unconcerned. “If you don’t mind, I mind even less. Don’t forget, we’re still married. I don’t see anything wrong with people seeing me with my wife.”Hearing that, Nina actually calmed down.She knew that if this turned into a contest of shamelessness, she would never win against him.So she got straight to the point.“What exactly do you want?”“I told you from the beginning. I want to talk.” James’s expression did not change.It was broad daylight, and they were in a public building. He couldn’t really do anything to her.Instead of staying stuck in a standoff with him, she might as well let him speak.So Nina stopped arguing

But for the sake of the partnership between the two companies, Daniel answered anyway.“That’s Mr. Taylor.”The moment Yvonne heard the name, her eyes widened in surprise.Before coming to Mendel, she had done her research on the company, so of course she knew what the last name Taylor meant here.She hadn’t expected to be this lucky on her first visit to Mendel.She had actually seen the legendary Leo Taylor in person.Rumor had it that he rarely appeared in public and never accepted private dinner invitations. More importantly, there had never been a single romantic scandal attached to his name.He was the definition of an eligible bachelor.Yvonne cleared her throat and said deliberately, “Since we’ve already run into him, why don’t I go say hello? We may have more opportunities to work together in the future.”“That won’t be necessary. Mr. Taylor is very busy,” Daniel stopped her at once.He knew his boss too well.If he let a woman like Yvonne approach Leo, he would def

He knew it was impossible, but he still let himself fall.He knew there would be no future, but he still wanted to try.Only after he came back to his senses did he realize it had been nothing more than a brief moment of indulgence, and he had paid for it with half a lifetime of longing.But what could he do?It was her.So he accepted it.Leo pulled a tissue from the box and handed it to her.“Does it really hurt that much? I only said a few things. If you don’t like hearing it, I won’t say it again.”Nina had no idea what he meant.But she was too embarrassed to ask him directly.Whenever she was around someone as high-ranking as him, she felt awkward asking questions. She was afraid that one careless question would expose how little she knew.After all, bosses liked smart employees.Even if an employee wasn’t that smart, they should at least know how to read the room.But with Leo, Nina often felt like she couldn’t figure out what he was thinking.Whenever that happene
