I settled back into my seat and asked, "Mr. Atticus, did you have something to discuss?""Nothing too urgent. The design for the downtown project is complete, and construction will begin soon." He sipped his tea and said, "I had some free time, so I thought I’d invite you for a chat."I quickly said, "If you're looking for staff, the project with ATL Empire is about to wrap up. Your team will be back in no time! I have been meaning to thank you, but it seemed insufficient."Atticus chuckled. Since I met him, I always thought he had a captivating smile that was also mysterious."Do you think I invited you here just to reclaim the team?" He lounged on the couch and asked, "So, any interest in continuing our collaboration?"“Yes, I’d love that. But that depends on how fruitful you think our partnership has been.""The downtown project's architecture and interior design may be synchronized. I considered doing it myself, but my energy is limited. So I'm thinking of outsourcing it."A

Harmony's agent immediately countered, "Ms. Harmony doesn't have that much time to move back and forth. Do you think we have nothing better to do?"I looked at Harmony's agent, Eloise. I had seen her before, and now she stood arrogantly looking down at me.Ivanna had complained about Eloise a long time ago. She had been trying to use Harmony's influence to push Ivanna down.She felt empowered to bully the weak because Harmony was highly successful and had a benefactor like Atlas.Ivanna was the one who assigned her to Harmony, but Harmony's assistant claimed that Eloise and Stella were secretly connected.Inspiration struck me. I could stage a situation by having Eloise deliver a message to Stella. We would openly disagree with Harmony, causing Stella to return.The idea was set, and I had no intention of backing down."We must go to the showroom to solve the problem and satisfy Ms. Harmony. It’s the quickest way to identify and solve problems." My tone was firm as I said, "I'm

“No problem, Ms. Chloe.” The designer nodded earnestly. Ryan had brought her to Tanum Corporation from overseas. Her name was Hana Avila, a classmate of one of Ryan’s juniors, Joyce.She won the newcomer award in the International Interior Decoration Competition. Considering the room for growth in the industry, her remarkable achievement was exceptional. Her return followed Joyce’s.After we finalized the business plan adjustments, Ryan expanded our team. Reviewing my budget, I realized our major projects had laid a solid foundation for us. Lauren’s support also boosted my confidence.I planned to visit Solaris after removing my arm's cast to stabilize Hartz Construction’s foundation. Once the timing was right, I would merge the two sides.Upon entering the showroom, the design and layout gave me a sense of accomplishment. The furnishings were the cherry on top. It was simply absurd for Harmony to be dissatisfied. I only realized Atlas came when I entered. I didn’t expect him to be

I glanced at them triumphantly and dropped my smile as I turned and left. I felt a deep sense of pain and blamed myself for being forceful.I laughed at myself and felt exhausted. I gritted my teeth as I entered the room. I took a deep breath, not wanting anyone to see me so miserable. As I composed myself, Hana approached and handed me her tablet.She glanced at it and shook her head helplessly. She seemed to be speechless about something. I swiped through a few times and then looked at her. "Can you sort out this information if I call for a meeting now?”"Yes," she replied confidently."How long do you need?" I asked. I didn't want to waste any more time on this issue. Engaging with them would only ruin my mood, and I had more important things to do."Not long. Anywhere with a computer will do," Hana said, her confident look making me feel comfortable. I thought even women could be charming and capable.I nodded approvingly. "Good. Ask Harmony if she has other requirements. Dou

Hana first presented the showroom’s initial layout and decoration. The images depicted a splendid room with a grand style. The attendees occasionally nodded in approval. It seemed they were satisfied with the initial showroom.Hana then displayed a series of images. With each one, she asked, "Ms. Harmony, is this what you'd like?"Hana was soft-spoken as she guided Harmony. The latter became engaged this time, perhaps because she wanted to show off her thoughts to the audience. She appeared elegant and continued expressing her ideas.Whenever this happened, Hana would provide her with feedback before asking, "Is this what you want?"Harmony clapped, nodded in agreement, and occasionally exclaimed, "Oh, yes! That’s what I want. The effect is perfect. Wow, it's great. I love it!”Everyone in the room watched. The attendees were eager to see the overall effect and learn about the celebrity’s design preferences. Harmony’s excitement engaged everyone’s enthusiasm. It seemed she had a m
