Marco for the project. Gosh, can you believe that?”
Keely was relieved to know that Slater still hated Loraine.
Moreover, she was happy to know Loraine was competing with Marco for the project.
“Since Marco is not here, there is no point in waiting for him.” She frowned, pretending to be weak. “Slater, Jimmie, I’m not feeling well.
Can you drop me home?”
“Well, I just remembered that I still have important work at the law firm. I’d better leave.”
Jimmie didn’t want to get involved in any trouble, so he left.
Slater didn’t mind driving her home, but he was afraid Marco would get mad at him if he found out that he had dropped Keely home without his knowledge.
“Well… I just bought a limited edition new car. I’m still not accustomed to it. Keely, you better ask Marco’s assistant to drop you home.”
Slater spun around and ran away. However, he soon stopped and turned to look at her.
“Don’t worry, Keely. I will help you keep an eye on Loraine. I won’t spare her. Bye.”

Ever since Loraine announced she was going to compete with Bryant Group for the smart city project, she had been leading her team to work hard and made several versions of the design plans.
Loraine’s ability convinced everyone in the architectural design department except Eliza.
Eliza was unhappy with Loraine’s authority, so she refused to cooperate with her.
Every time she was assigned a task, she would complain about the workload.
Eliza tried her best to postpone the tasks assigned to her.
Everyone knew she was slacking, but the department was in need of people, so they had no choice but to put up with her.
Eliza sensed that and became Lazier.
Her behavior lasted until Loraine held a project meeting again.
Eliza came to the conference room twenty minutes after the meeting commenced.
“Oh, I got a stomach ache. That’s why I’m late,” she explained without guilt. “I hope you understand, Loraine.”
