Chapter 222

She hurriedly hopped onto Avery's Twitter and found out he'd already made a swift post to clarify, saying he'd moved on from the past and was now focused solely on his work and acting. He wasn't interested in dating, and as for Bonnie, he wished her well.

Aurelia took a sip of her coffee, preparing to call Arnold, when she noticed he'd already sent a message on WhatsApp, [Don’t worry about Avery, Serenity Films will handle it.)

[Thanks!] she replied, sending a heart emoji.

She was truly lucky to have a good friend like Arno, it was like having a sturdy oak to shelter under! During the weekly Monday meeting, Louis brought good news the “Eternal Love’ series continued to see growing sales, and it was predicted that it would soon break the sales record of “Secret’ Leopold lounged in his chair, propping his forehead with his left hand, his face expressionless as if he was wearing an icy mask. Only his eyes were deep, like an ancient well, unfathomable. He didn't listen to a word. of Louis's report because he was in a bad mood.

Last night, he had a nightmare that Aurelia had disappeared. He searched everywhere, but he couldn't find her! Unconsciously, his gaze fixated on Aurelia, a dark, locked gaze as if he was afraid she would vanish if he blinked.

This subtle reaction was keenly noticed by everyone in the meeting room.

Could it be that Mr. Leopold was waiting for Aurelia to back down and voluntarily withdraw from the competition for the director's position?

Evelyn thought so, flipping her shoulder-length hair with a smug look in her eyes.

She had anticipated this outcome, there was no suspense. Only Kevin knew that the boss was distracted.

In the morning, as soon as he got in the car, he noticed the chill in the air, probably due to Mr. Leopold's another squabble with Ms. Aurelia.

After Louis finished his report, he timely interjected, “Manager Aurelia, how's “Destiny’ coming along?”

Leopold instantly snapped back to reality, shifted his gaze, picked up his cup, took a sip of his coffee, hiding all the unusual emotions behind the rim of the cup..

Aurelia had been keeping her head down, only looking up when she heard Kevin's voice, “The first batch of products are ready for production, we're now preparing for the subsequent supporting work.”

Kevin gave a slight nod.

Seeing Aurelia not speaking anymore, Louis cleared his throat and prodded, “Manager Aurelia, don't you have anything else to say?”

“No, “Destiny’ hasn't hit the market yet, so I don't have anything special to report,” Aurelia replied blandly.

Louis gave her a look, this girl really didn't have any insight. Mr. Leopold's intentions were so clear, hinting for her to voluntarily withdraw, and she didn't get it? So clueless!

“Manager Aurelia, it's impossible for “Destiny’ to surpass the “Eternal Love’ series in sales, the position of Director of the Design Department has been vacant for a long time, why don’t you take the initiative...”

He was interrupted by Aurelia before he could finish, “Mr. Louis, “Destiny’ hasn't hit the market yet, it's not fair to predict its failure.”

Louis frowned, “I'm just looking out for you, I don't want you to be embarrassed when the time comes.”

Evelyn chuckled, “It's fine. If Manager Aurelia withdrew like this, it would feel like a hollow victory to me. Let's wait until the final results.”

Leopold cast another glance at Aurella. Today, he wanted to do one thing, have this woman stay under his watch all day to punish her for running around in his dreams last night!

“That's it for today's meeting, you're dismissed.”

He stood up, walked to the conference room door, paused, and said in a casual tone, “Aurelia, come to my office.”

All eyes in the room fell on Aurelia, who felt a light sweat. She had a feeling the big boss was intentionally making her uncomfortable. Did she do something wrong again to upset him?

She mumbled a little “Oh,” stood up, and followed him out with an awkward expression.

Louis sighed and shook his head, looking regretful, “This girl is too inexperienced, she doesn't know how to seize the opportunity. Now she’s been called into Mr. Leopold's office, she’s bound to come out crying.”
