Chapter 63
The next morning I dragged my tired body to the office, found Gemma, and discussed with her my thoughts of the previous night.
“Mr. Donald hopes this piece of jewelry can follow the luxury, consistency, and fashion of our series CG. I was thinking last night that this could be made into a bracelet for a pair. The main part of the bracelet is made of gold, uses an ancient technology, emphasizes stability and is equipped with a chain of rose gold and a diamond pendant. As for the exact details and proportions, we still need to make samples to test them. I think it will take at least a month.” I speak.
“A month is too short.” Gemma smiles, “this jewelry must be a very important trial of our group. You know that changing a style has a big impact on a jewelry group, which also determines our direction for the future. Based on past experience, this will take at least three months.”
“That long?”
Gemma nodded. After a while, she suddenly asked, “By the way, Trista, have you ever thought about staying in the lion group for a long time?”
I have never thought about that before.
“If you are in the R&D lab, I am not worried that all my efforts will be in vain after I retire.” Gemma stood in front of the window looking into the distance. She seemed to be talking to me and to herself.
I can not help thinking that there are not many dedicated people like Ms. Gemma in the world.”
“No, very many.” She returned the look with a smile. “There are tenacious employees at every post. You see, the world is so big and there are so many high-rises. You can feel the efforts of many people merged into it.”
Suddenly….
My cell phone rang and I saw a series of strange numbers appear on the screen. I frowned slightly and smiled, “Excuse me, senior, I’ll answer the phone.”
Gemma’s pov
Trista’s smile just blossomed, but it did not take long for it to freeze. Then her face suddenly looked ugly, “where are you now? In the street number 9? OK, I’ll be right there!”
I looked at her burning eyebrows and thought, “What’s going to happen now? It’s urgent!
“Elder, I am sorry. I’ll go out and come back soon!”
“Wait….” I haven’t asked anything clearly. She pushed open the door of the lab and stormed out!
After a while, Trista’s figure ran out of the first floor, rushed through the gate, turned right and ran all the way.
As I stood in front of the window, I saw her figure disappear from my sight. Not only was I concerned, but I sent her a text message, “Are you okay? Trista.”
In five minutes….
The door of the research and development lab was pushed open and the sound of clean leather shoes rang out. Donald came with dozens of subordinates to inspect the work. My face suddenly went into a panic!
Why is Mr. Donald here? He would never come into a small R & D lab before! Let alone bring so many people with him!
I am flattered and even more disturbed. You know, Trista and I are the only people who study cg21. Now Trista is not here and the whole lab seems deserted.
“How far along is the experiment?” asked Donald casually as he walked in the door and looked around the lab.
“Mr. Donald, everything is going well.”
“What about the new minister? She’s not in the lab during working hours. Where did she go?” Donald finally got to the point.
All I can say is, “She just got an urgent call. Something big seems to have happened. She ran out without changing her clothes!”
“Do you know where she went?”
“It seems…. The street number 9….”
….
Trista’s view
Half an hour later, I returned to the research and development lab as if in a trance.
Gemma reached out and shook her hand in front of me. “Trista, what’s wrong with you? What happened?”
“Oh, it’s okay.” I thought back, “I am sorry, sir, let us get on with the research now.”
“Mr. Donald asked you to come to his office.”
“What?”
“Mr. Donald asked you to come to his office.” She repeated it with slight regret, saying, “Not long after you left, Mr. Donald came to inspect our experimental process. I tried to hide it from him, but our research and development lab is too small…. I am sorry, Trista, don’t you blame me?”
“It is wrong of me to leave my post during working hours without authorization. I am willing to accept criticism from my superiors.”
She said with a guilty look on her face, “It’s all my fault. I have not lied for most of my life, and I told the truth in an instant. Mr. Donald is a little grumpy. If he says something important later, do not take it to heart. Besides, I am really sorry about all this, I…. hey.”
“Elder, I am glad I did not drag you down! I’ll go first. You have nothing to worry about.”
“Trista….”
….
When I got the courage to knock on Donald’s office door, IRA opened it. Seeing that no one was there, IRA whispered: “Young lady, please come in.”This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Where is your young master?” When I went in, I found that there was no one in the office. Donald was not there.
“The young master went to No. 9 Street to look for you…. he heard you went there half an hour ago, so….” Before he finished speaking, the cell phone rang, “Sorry, I’ll get the phone.”
“OK.”
“Hello? Young master? OK, what do you want me to check for you? Oh, do not check. The young lady is in the office! Well, safe! No injury! Visually there is nothing!! Really, I’ll look out the window now! I promise! no man!”
When IRA hung up, I thought it was funny, “is he still there?”
“Yes, but the young master came back as soon as he heard you were in the office. In fact, to tell you the truth, the young master really worried about Mrs.. IHewas worried about your accident earlier and rushed here without saying a word! I did not even have time to sign the most important documents!”
“Really.”
Sometimes I just do not want him to worry.
“Yes, the young master sometimes does not look at the opportunity because you are in such a hurry. Just now he went to the lab under the guise of inspection. As soon as he heard you were not there, all his subordinates were confused and did not know what had happened to the young master.”
“That childish mind….”
“I have been with the young master since I was 14 years old. I have never seen the young master so obsessed with a woman! Young lady, you should feel the young master’s spirit….”
Before IRA could finish, the door was pushed open with a bang. It could be seen that Donald had run all the way. He was a little out of breath. As he walked in the door, his eyes locked on me, “Where have you been? What happened?”
Before I could answer, he had grabbed my hand and was examining it over and over. His eyes were like a laser scanning me, “are you hurt? Tell me!”
“Do not worry, I just….” I just wanted to explain that he had rolled up my sleeve to check if there was a wound in it.
I did not cry or laugh. “Are you going to undress me for the examination?”
Donald’s point of view
When I heard the word “naked,” I immediately remembered that there was a light bulb on nearby, “what are you doing here? Who gave you permission to come in? Do not you know how to be suspicious when you are in the same place with my wife? Do not you want to leave yet? Do you want to wait until my wife has undressed?”
The IRA took a cigarette from the corner of his mouth, “Young sir, you asked me to keep the young lady and not move a step….”
“Is that still a backtalk?”
“I am going to leave now…. Right now….”
Seeing that he was gone, I asked, “What happened?”
“I received a call.” Her eyes suddenly darkened.
