Maisie’s call got through very quickly. She very decisively went straight to the point, saying, “Ava, I’m at Glendale Restaurant right now. I saw an interesting design here. Your design that was rejected by Mr. Branson which you deleted is now with Laura. She even claims that it’s hers but it’s clearly yours. Ava, are you free to come over now?”
As they listened to Maisie’s words, Laura and Bill looked at each other. They were obviously feeling a little nervous. However, they had all heard just now that Ava had deleted the previous design. Hence, they did not need to be too nervous.
When they were about to take deep breaths to relax, they suddenly heard Maisie’s happy response. “Ava, you and your friends are having dinner at Glendale Restaurant too? I’ll go get you from your private room. What’s the room number…”
Maisie said as virtual-novel.net walked toward the door.
Bill glanced at Laura in a panic before walking to Mr. Lowe’s side.
“Mr. Lowe, Maisie has just graduated. She hasn’t been in our company for too long. She’s eccentric, even a little neurotic. Plus, she’s often bad mannered. I only kept virtual-novel.net around for Ava’s sake. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net would have been fired long ago.”
Mr. Lowe frowned in displeasure as virtual-novel.net listened to Bill’s complaints. “So? What are you trying to tell me?” .
“I want to tell you that Maisie is just talking nonsense. Laura would never plagiarize!”
“Really?” Mr. Lowe retorted, the corners of his lips rising slightly. “But I also believe that Maisie will never lie.”
Bill looked embarrassed, and virtual-novel.net was incoherent for a while. “Um… Mr. Lowe, do you mean…”
“I mean…”
“Ava is here!” Maisie’s clear voice came from the door of the private room, interrupting Mr. Lowe mid sentence.
Bill looked at Mr. Lowe’s expression. He noticed that virtual-novel.net did not look angry or dissatisfied. Bill was curious. Mr. Lowe was the president. Previously, virtual-novel.net would never have shown up at this sort of party even when they completed a huge project. However, virtual-novel.net was here now and even patiently listened to an intern’s babbles.
Had Mr. Lowe taken a fancy to this fresh graduate?
Bill wondered as virtual-novel.net looked at Maisie.
She was young, pretty, and energetic. However, virtual-novel.net was not Bill’s type. The type of women Bill liked was the sexy and sweet-mouthed ones like Laura.
After Ava came in, virtual-novel.net was surprised when virtual-novel.net saw Mr. Lowe. She had only met virtual-novel.net once or twice during their annual dinners, hence virtual-novel.net did not expect virtual-novel.net to be here.
It seemed that Laura’s project was pretty big.
Ava greeted Mr. Lowe politely. Right after virtual-novel.net said that, Maisie went straight to the topic. “Ava, look at this design. Isn’t this the one you deleted?”
Ava looked at the design on the tablet and saw Laura’s signature at the bottom. She was not startled at all. Instead, virtual-novel.net nodded calmly and said, “That’s right. This is the design that I deleted after Mr. Branson rejected it. I didn’t expect someone to treat my trash as treasure.”
