It’s All Set in Stone Now
“Yeah, Rory is a man of integrity. Take your time going through these,” Grayson instructed, concerned
about me. “Chlo, you should rest for a while. I have an appointment to attend.”
I asked him, “Oh, I need to go to Sris in the next day or two. Do you have anything on your
schedule?”
He replied, “Well, if possible, I’d like to go with you. I want to introduce you to a client, I think you need
to
meet this person.”
“Okay, I’ll tell you when I n to leave, and you can tell me more about this person on the way,” I said
to
Grayson.
Just then, Carol arrived with the painkillers. Seeing Grayson, she said, “There’s a report you need to
sign.”
“Sure.”
“Oh… Chloe, we have an appointment with ATL Empire at 10 o’clock. You rest first, but we should
leave
soon,” Carol reminded me.
I quickly took the medicine from her, swallowed a pill, and drank water.
Grayson told Carol to bring the report for him to check. After signing it, he handed it to me. “This is the
finances for Hartz Construction. Chloe, you can take a look.”
Carol checked the time and said, “Chloe, we should leave now.
I locked all the documents in my drawer and then grabbed my bag. Then, I left the office with Carol and
Grayson, heading straight for ATL Empire. On the way, Carol asked, “Chloe, are you feeling better?
You
don’t look well.”
“I’m fine. Maybe I just didn’t get enough rest,” I casually replied.
“In that case, go home and rest after signing the contract,” Carol suggested, “I can take you to Arkadial
Spa to rx. You’ve been too tensetely. Your injury is only healing, yet you’re running around so
much.
“You must take better care of yourself. Ryan is doing great now. You still have us, so please take it
easy.”
Carol understood me well. We had even developed an unspoken understanding. She genuinely cared
for
1. me.
“Carol, I’d like to take it easy but can’t. It might be better if our operations are on track, but it’s a critical
time for Tanum Corporation, Ryan’s taking care of everything, and I must support him. We’ll be fine
once
we reach the top.
Carol sighed, “Chloe, I know you. Even if we reach a higher level, you will still be hands–on. You just
don’t
know how to enjoy life.”
I could only smile bitterly.
Everyone waited in the small conference room when we arrived at ATL Empire. The new head of the
project team, Bruce Chapman, was enthusiastic. I hadn’t met him before, though. He told his secretary,
Inform Mr. As about Ms. Chloe’s arrival,”
My heart skipped a beat, and I couldn’t help but wonder why As also had to attend. Soon after, As
entered the small conference room with Dn.
He went straight to the main seat and nced at me. He furrowed his brows and asked, “Ms. Chloe,
are
you unwell?”
I instinctively rubbed my temple and replied, “I’m fine. It’s just a headache. It’s not a big deal.”
He looked at me severely, then told everyone, “Let’s begin.”
Bruce was efficient as he exined the naming rights we were preparing for as part of our long–term
cooperation. He also put forward several stringent requirements. I carefully analyzed each point, and it
seemed that there wouldn’t be shes with Tanum Corporation’s operations.
Then As also discussed this contract with me and exined the requirements and areas that
needed. cooperation. Finally, both sides confirmed and signed the contract. I sighed in relief after finally
settling.
this matter.

It seemed my headache was terrible. When the meeting ended, As said, “Ms. Chloe,e to my
office.
I need to confirm something with you.”
Afterward, he got up and left with Dn, giving some instructions to thetter.
I was puzzled, wondering what As wanted with me and why we couldn’t discuss it here instead of
going to his office. Still, he seemed severe.
I whispered to Carol, “Wait for me in the car. I’ll be right down.”
Then, I left the small conference room and went to the top floor via the elevator. I realized As’s
secretary was not at the door when I arrived. I had to knock, and I heard As’s response from inside.
When I was about to enter, someone pulled me in further and embraced me.
