Chase shrugged nonchalantly, Iâm just curious, thatâs all. How did that guy win you over?â
Ellinor fell silent.
Ida came over with a cup of coffee and lightly kicked Chase, âBuzz off! Ellinor is busy working, and youâre here chit-chatting about nonsense â
Chase was kicked aside. He patted his pants lightly and looked at Ida, feeling displeased.
Ida put the coffee on the desk next to Ellinor, âEllinor, did you actually patch things up with Mr. Blanchet last night?â
Ellinor struggled to find a response.
Chase rolled his eyes. âArenât you as curious as I am?â
Ellinor didnât answer their questions. She flipped to the last page of the financial report in her hand, âHmm, not bad. The financial report for the second half of the year has improved a lot compared to the first half. You two have worked hard. We still have a long way to go in terms of real estate development compared to those established groups.â
Ida, as always, was serious about her work. She nodded after hearing this, âOkay, I got it.â
Ellinor closed the folder and took a sip of her coffee.
Ida suddenly thought of something. âOh right, Ellinor, weâve finished the design for the new office building for the Blanchet Corporation. They were very satisfied with the final design you provided, and now theyâve handed over the construction to us.â
Ellinor sipped her coffee and pondered for a while, then said, âOkay, Iâll handle the construction of the Blanchet Corporationâs new building. Iâll supervise it personally.â
Ida was a bit surprised. She adjusted her glasses and said, âEllinor, youâre going to supervise the construction yourself? The site conditions are harsh, and there is a risk of objects falling on you from great heights, especially since youâre pregnant.â
Ellinor said seriously, âI know, but Iâll be careful.â
Ida wanted to persuade Ellinor more, but Chase interrupted her âIda, donât you get it? The Blanchet Corporation used to be just our client, but now their boss is Ellinorâs man. Itâs her manâs family business, so of course she wants to supervise it personally.â
Ellinor was taken aback, sometimes Chase really did not hold back.
Ida understood but was still worried, âEllinor, I can have someone supervise it, you donât have to go personally Ellinor didnât change her mind. She spoke as she waved her hand lightly, âNo need; Iâll handle it myself.â
When the Crescent Society Building was being built, Ellinor also personally supervised it.
Although she could hand it over entirely to the construction company, such a huge project might have quality issues, so she wanted to supervise it herself.
If all went well, the new Blanchet Corporation office building would be Theoâs workplace for the next several decades. But no one could predict whether Greenhaven would suffer any disasters in the next few decades.
Therefore, she wanted Theoâs long-term workplace to be safe and sturdy, with no hidden dangers, so that she could rest assured.
Chase suddenly came over, put his elbow on the desk, and pretended to sigh jealously, âEllinor, Iâm starting to get jealous by how much you baby Mr. Blanchet.â
Ellinor came back to her senses. She picked up the folder in her hand and knocked Chase on the head with it, âCan you have some decency? I see youâre getting more and more unruly lately Youâre not young anymore; you should act your age! Stop looking for trouble!â
Ida laughed jokingly, âExactly!â
Chase rubbed his head, âIda, do you have a right to say that about me? Weâre in the same boat; youâre no saint either!â
