Stuck On You novel Chapter 78

That night, Linda barely closed her eyes.

She had planned to take the opportunity to get close to Chason and ask him to help her. Her ambition was not on the project director at all. She wanted more. However, she didn't expect that her actions aroused Chason's antipathy.

It shouldn't be, shouldn't it? After all, almost no man had refused her. 'Is it true that Chason is not interested in women?'

However, she was not in the mood to think about it now. If Chason really made a fuss about last night. Not only was her dream of taking the shortcut to become an international designer unfulfilled, but there was a good chance that she wouldn't even get this project, which meant her design career would be in for a rough ride.

Thinking of this, she couldn't fall asleep any-more and called her sugar daddy for help.

In fact, her sugar daddy was just an old man who coveted her beauty. The Mu family had some fame in the design world, but it was kind of insignificant among the many giants in S City.

Linda was unwilling to stay in the design world as her father did, so she often went to parties held by those rich families, and with her looks and talent, she did attract a lot of attention from men. As time went by, there were also many men protecting her in this field, such as this sugar daddy.

And her sugar father was not others but a member of the Gu family, a distant relative of Chason.

Linda gave a general description of the situation, and her sugar daddy, Gates, pondered for a while before he said, "You can mess with anyone, but how could you mess with Chason?"

Although the Gu family was Chason's grandmother's family, but in the end it was still sheltered by the Jiang family and no one dared to go against him.

Hearing what Gates had said, for the first time in her life, Linda was in such a panic. "daddy, please help me. He is still the decision maker of this project. I don't want to lose to a new comer here."

"Can a new comer defeat you?" Gates asked casually.

Speaking of this, Linda was completely aggrieved. "I've always been the leader of the Design Department of Flower Wheel Company. Now a new comer is stepping on me!"

Gates always felt something was wrong, "What's the new comer's name?"

He had specially told the director of Flower Wheel Company to take care of Linda. Now a new comer had the qualifications to compete with Linda. There were only two cases. One was that this person was really powerful, or that her background was even stronger than the Gu family.

"Her name is Claire. I heard that she didn't have any professional background at all. I've seen her design. It's a little high-level, but it won't compete with me. "

The more Linda said, the more aggrieved she became. Why could Claire come to the Flower Wheel Company?

Gates's heart tightened and suddenly interrupted her, "What did you say? Claire? "

Facing his great reaction, Linda was also stunned. "Yes, you know her?"

"Ouch!" Gates patted his thigh, "sweetie, you would better don't provoke her. She is... She is the wife of Chason and the young mistress of the Jiang family! "

What? Linda's hand that held the phone trembled for a moment. After a long while, she said, "I... I beg your pardon? Claire is... Is she the wife of Chason? "

"Yes! Sweetie, let's not fight for this project. Anyway, I can't help you this time. As for what you have done to Chason tonight, if he doesn't mention it, you can just pretend that nothing has happened. "

If the Jiang family continued to investigate, even Gates would not be able to protect Linda.

After hanging up the phone, Linda was so angry that she couldn't say anything.

The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. What was so good about Claire? How could a woman who came in through the back door compete with her?

Besides, her education, talent and appearance were no worse than hers. Why did Chason look at her but look down upon her?

Being so angry, Linda didn't sleep all night.

In all her years at Flower Wheel Company, she hadn't been so angry. Why was Claire here now?

It was almost dawn. Linda washed her face and rinsed her mouth with two dark circles under her eyes. She was ready to go out.

What a small world! As soon as she went out, she ran into Claire who was walking towards her.

Linda, who had been angry all night, saw Claire standing in the corridor with a design book in her hand.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she felt. The anger in her heart had already burnt away the advice of Gates last night. She walked over and slapped the book out of Claire's hand. "You are an outsider. Why do you come to our design circle? To set yourself against me? "

Claire cast a glance at her, probably because she had always been used to Linda of being straightforward, so she didn't have much reaction to this provocation. She picked up the book on the ground and patted it two times. Ignoring what Linda was saying, she walked around and walked away.

For Linda, if Claire quarreled with her, she would feel better. However, Claire ignored her.

According to the rules of the director, they had a regular meeting in the morning. Claire ate something and went there early. Perhaps it was because she went too early that no one came to the temporary built small meeting room.

She didn't know why she felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, maybe because she was too anxious. Claire thought for a while and decided to get some hot water outside. She carried a lot of things in her bag and put it on her seat in the meeting room.

When Claire came back with some hot water, everyone was here. The director said a lot as usual. She flipped through the design book while listening. Suddenly, she heard the director say, "Linda, Claire, after the meeting, hand in your first draft and the revised plan. We have to make the final decision today."

Yes, this was the task given to them by the director before they came to the construction site yesterday. The two of them were required to modify the first draft after the on-the-spot investigation.

Claire put down the design book in her hand and began to look through the first draft and modify drawings in her bag. For no reason, Claire rummaged through her bag but couldn't find them.

'What's going on? Do I forget to bring it with me? No, I remember putting it in the bag.

Was it lost?'

This was terrible. Although she had a backup of the first draft, this revised drawing was the only one. She had no time to backup it and it was gone.

But how could she lose it? If she didn't guess wrong, it could only be that someone had deliberately taken it away.

"Claire, where is your draft?" The director walked towards Claire with Linda's draft in his hand.

Claire looked at the director with embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry, director. I'll look for it again. The draft is suddenly missing."

Hearing that Claire's design was missing, the director frowned and said, "what's wrong with you... Alas, hurry up and look for it. "

"What happened?" When Chason came in, he happened to meet the director, who had a pale face, and Claire, who was anxious.

Although the director didn't know that the woman in front of him was the young mistress of the Jiang family, he knew that Claire was protected by Chason, so he didn't dare to lose his temper. "Mr. Chason, I'm sorry. Claire's draft is missing. I'm in a hurry to give it to you. "

"When did you lose your draft?" Chason turned to her, and there was no joy or sorrow in his tone.

She bit her lips and finally said, "it's my fault. I put my bag in the meeting room and the draft disappeared after I went out."

Although she was sure that someone did it on purpose, it was she who wasn't careful enough after all.

Chason's face darkened, but his tone didn't change. "So, someone took the draft away when you left?"

"Well... That's impossible. " The director looked a little embarrassed. "Don't you think about whether you have left it somewhere else?"

If it was something else, she might not remember. But when she was in the meeting room, she paid special attention to the draft. So she said, "I'm sure."

"In that case, let's wait for Miss Claire to modify the first draft and hand it over to make a decision." Chason said slowly.

Hearing this, the director's face changed greatly. "Mr. Chason, is it not appropriate? According to the plan, the construction will be started today. "

After all, Flower Wheel Company had many other projects besides this one. Even if the progress was delayed for one day, it would be a big loss to the whole company.

Chason smiled and said, "if the draft is taken by someone inside the Flower Wheel Company and sold to other companies, it will be a huge loss to both the Flower Wheel Company and Miss Claire. If an outsider took the map, his purpose would be even more obvious. So I think it's better to figure it out before making a decision. "

What he said was indeed reasonable, and the director could not refute. He waved his hand and said, "Claire, come on, we're waiting for you."

'Who on earth took her map?' Claire's mind was in a mess. She couldn't help but target her competitor, Linda.

Yes, she was the one most likely to do it. But she couldn't suspect a person without evidence.

The most important thing at the moment was to correct the draft as she had thought last night.

Claire temporarily forgot what had just happened and tried to modify the draft.

It was not known what caused it. Maybe it was because the inspiration of the designer only existed for a moment. Claire picked up the draft again, but she couldn't change it to the one she was satisfied with.

When she was in a hurry, her phone rang. It was Chason. She hesitated for a moment and picked up the phone. "What's up?"

"Come to my room." His familiar voice came through the microphone.

Claire was busy, and she was in no mood to do so. "I'm busy now. I really don't have time."

'How dare she refuse me?' Chason was a little angry, "Claire, I'll give you three minutes to come to my room." Then he hung up the phone.

What a grump! Claire scratched her head, she really didn't know how to modify it. After thinking for a while, Claire decided to go to his room.

"What's up?" It was only two minutes from her room to his.

With a hint of playfulness in his eyes, Chason said, "have a guess."

Guess what? How could there be such a person? She was very anxious. "Hurry up, I don't have time to waste with you here. You saw what happened just now. "

If she couldn't make it today, how could she explain it to the director?

Chason smiled, "you take this and try it."
