With a few doubts, Nora took the elevator and arrived at the door of the president's office.
When Asher's cold and solemn face came to mind, Nora's heart trembled for no reason.
She took a deep breath and knocked on the door of the president's office.
"Come in." Asher's low voice came out.
Nora pushed the door in.
Asher was sitting at his desk, holding a file in his slender hands, with all the elegance and nobility in his movements, and his powerful aura gave people an inexplicable sense of oppression as if he was born to be the king standing at the top of the pyramid.
"Asher, what can I do for you?" Nora withdrew her gaze and asked.
Hearing the voice, Asher raised his eyes and looked at her, his delicate features solemn and his voice clear and cold, "Where have you been?"
He had gone to the secretary department after the meeting just now, but he had not seen Nora.
He asked the people around her seat and they told him that she had gone out.
She went out during work hours without asking him for leave.
"The samples of 'Ice and Fire' have been produced and I took them to Mr. Bruce at the Grand Royal Hotel just now." Nora looked calm and answered truthfully.
"Is that so?" Asher's handsome face was a bit cold, "Since the samples have been produced, why didn't you show them to me?"
Asher's probing eyes were fixed on Nora's face. And he obviously felt that Nora had been avoiding him for the past few days.
When Nora met his deep eyes, she looked away unnaturally and the corners of her lips lifted slightly, "Because you didn't ask me to show them to you, Mr. Hawn."
"So, you took matters into your own hands? As a project leader, don't you know that you have to report the progress of the project to your leader?" Asher's eyes narrowed slightly and his tone was solemn and cold, with a vague hint of anger.
Did this woman even skip the report in order to avoid him?
"I don't think we need to bother the president with such trivial matters. After all, for the Hawn Group, 'Ice and Fire' is just a small project. Besides, there's nothing wrong for me to ask Mr. Bruce's opinion first and report back to you after any problems are revised." Nora replied in a way neither servile nor overbearing.
In fact, Nora was right.
Jewelry was not the Hawn Group's main business and Asher had not paid attention to it before.
But since Nora had taken it over, he couldn't help but want to pay attention to it.
He didn't want to admit that it was actually Nora he was concerned about.
"So, what's Bruce's opinion?" Asher asked with a smile.
Nora shook her head, "He doesn't have a problem with them."
From beginning to end, Bruce had nothing but praise for the project and he was very satisfied with the design, the production progress, and the samples that came out at the end.
"When are you going to launch it?" Asher leaned back and asked.
"As soon as possible. Bruce is very satisfied with the samples. I will arrange for a press conference after we finish shooting the commercial. I'm sure it will be a sensation by then." There was a smile of confidence on Nora's face.
Nora had been working on "Ice and Fire" from design to production by herself. She believed that with her ability, she would make "Ice and Fire" a hit.
Asher answered lightly and then asked, "Who are the brand ambassadors?"
Brand ambassadors?
Nora's eyelids twitched. Asher didn't ask her to come here just to question her about why she asked Julian to be the spokesperson, did he?
She hesitated for a moment and said, "The spokeswoman is a new actress, Annie, Mr. Bruce's girlfriend. And the spokesman is... Julian."
When Asher heard the word "Julian", his facial lines tightened up visibly.
"Julian?" Asher narrowed his deep eyes and had a gloomy look on his face, "Nora, are you doing this on purpose? Taking advantage of the public for personal gain?"
How dared this woman?
She actually had the guts to make Julian the spokesman?
Was she trying to have an affair with another man right under his nose?
Nora rubbed her brow, a little helpless.
She knew that Asher would react this way.
Nora met his cold eyes and spoke lightly, "Asher, what kind of nasty thoughts do you have in your mind? It was Mr. Bruce's decision to make Julian the spokesperson. Shouldn't we meet the client's request? Besides, what's wrong with Julian? He has the looks, the body, and the popularity. I also think that he is the most suitable choice."
Asher had an angry look on his handsome face.
Was Julian so perfect in Nora's mind?
He suddenly stood up and approached Nora with his long legs, "So, that's the reason why you like Julian?"
Nora: ????
Since when did she like Julian?!
"Asher, we're talking business now." Nora didn't want to dwell on this issue with him anymore, "If there's nothing else, I'll go out first."
In order to avoid the embarrassment of facing Asher, Nora decided to work overnight.
As the night drew on, Nora was the only one in the entire secretarial department working at her desk.
Nora was revising the audition schedule for tomorrow when her phone rang.
She took out the phone and looked at it. It was her grandfather calling.
She hurriedly picked up the phone, "Grandpa."
" My dear little girl, why haven't you called grandpa for so long? How are you doing?" Charlie's cheerful voice came through the airwaves.
A wave of guilt welled up in Nora's heart.
Yes, it had been a while since she had called her grandfather.
"Grandpa, I'm fine. I've just been so busy lately." Nora laughed.
"It's a good thing to be busy." Charlie laughed, "What do you think? Have I found you a good fiancé?"
"You mean Asher?" Nora pursed her lips and pouted, "Grandpa, what did you think? This man is petty, bad-tempered, unpredictable, and always bullying."
"It's rare that someone can bully you, that's good." Charlie stroked his beard and said meaningfully, "Baby girl, get along well with Asher and you will know that grandpa is not wrong about him."
Charlie said and hung up the phone.
Listening to the beeping sound of the phone being hung up, Nora was speechless.
She had no idea what was going on with her grandfather and why he was so optimistic about Asher.
This man was unpredictable and did strange things from time to time.
She didn't want her future husband to be such an unpredictable person.
Nora was just about to put her phone away when she suddenly noticed that there was a shadow in front of her. She looked up and saw a long, upright figure in her line of sight.
The man was wearing a black suit that almost blended in with the night. His tall figure was leaning against the wall with two buttons of his shirt unbuttoned, revealing his strong chest.
Nora looked at the man in front of her in surprise.
Asher?
When had he come over?
