"There's still about half a month until your wedding. Remember to let go of all your work and come back when you're ready. I've already prepared your wedding clothes for you to try on." Elizabeth said.
The wedding clothes.
Mm, he could now talk about the main point.
"Don't girdle her." William thought that it was natural to say this.
"What?" Elizabeth was startled, thinking that she had heard wrongly.
"Change a dress without a girdle rope at the wedding." William said, his voice was cold as he added, "I don't like women without waists."
When Elizabeth heard this, she finally understood that William did not purposely call her, but just to speak up for Alice. She raised her head to look at the direction of the stairs.
She was about to marry into the Cullen Family, yet she had that set of pettiness and even learnt to complain to her son.
Elizabeth's voice also became cold, "I also did it for the sake of her being able to stand out on the day of the wedding. I was worried about your wedding, while your fiancee ran out to play."
She also knew to complain.
"Running out?"
William had never heard Alice go out before.
"On the way, she intentionally left Charles behind, saying that she was going to see Daniel, but who knows." Elizabeth said coldly.
William remained silent.
Seeing that William did not speak anymore, and she said, "Alright, alright, I just also casually say that, I allowed her to go out."
She really wouldn't do something so petty as complain.
"I'm hanging up." William said.
Just as Elizabeth was about to hang up, she heard William emphasizing once again, "Don't girdle her."
The phone was immediately hung up.
Elizabeth sat on the sofa in the hall, she suddenly felt depressed, didn't they say that William would not be like last time?
He was afraid that she would mistreat Alice, he was so nervous. Elizabeth looked at the maid. "Go upstairs and reduce Miss Alice's girdle dress to one, prepare a few more ceremonial dresses."
"Yes, ma'am."
The maid nodded and turned away.
As the days passed, the day of the wedding drew nearer and nearer.
Alice stayed in Cullen Family, and every two days she would have to meet Elizabeth and learn how to walk properly. Even though William was not there, she rehearsed the whole process of the wedding again and again.
With Mr. Y's help, Mona was hidden very well, and did not reveal any trace.
Mona also started to call William on time. Towards Mona's phone, William sometimes took it, sometimes rejected it, sometimes he even hung up halfway through their conversation.
William had changed a lot.
This was what Alice wished to see the most. She thought that before long, William would be able to completely let go of the suffering and suffering that he had endured for more than four years.
San Francisco.
In the guest room of the N.E Building, William was sitting on a leather sofa, dressed in suit, he was discussing about the acquisition with others.
Suddenly, William's phone vibrated.
He took out his cell phone and glanced at it.
It was a photo that Alice sent over.
It was another selfie, she stood under a flowering tree with her hands behind her back. She leaned forward slightly and had a bright, sweet smile. In the photo, her face was round, making people want to pinch it.
"We are honored to cooperate with Mr. William."
The boss was still praising William.
Just as William was about to turn off his phone, Alice sent a message over quickly.
[It's almost a month, are you coming to marry me?]
William was lost in thought.
"Mr. William? Mr. William? "
William turned and looked at them, his expression was as cold as frost, "The proposal has already been given to you. Whether or not you can accept it is up to you. I only want the result."
Hearing this, a few bosses sat there awkwardly. Even the secretary was dumbfounded. It had been a long time since she heard CEO say such words.
"Mr. William, of course we can see your sincerity, but we do not know if..."
"I don't accept bargaining." William interrupted them coldly, his black eyes swept across them indifferently.
The several bosses became even more embarrassed.
"I still have a meeting later, help yourself." William stood up from the sofa and looked at the secretary, "You take care of this."
"Yes, CEO."
The secretary nodded.
William walked out by himself, holding his phone with his slender hands, he flipped through a few messages a few times.
A staff walked past him and looked at William in surprise.
Since when did the CEO become a phubber? Interesting.
William strode into the holographic technology department.
"CEO!"
Seeing William walk in, everyone immediately stood up from their desks. The leaders also walked out of their own independent offices, trembling as they looked at William, "CEO, is there something you need?"
"What is the progress of the holographic image communication?"
William now felt that Alice's suggestion was of great value in the future.
Hmm, he only admired Alice's suggestion, and wanted to speed up the process. "This..."
The staff hesitated.
"Can't do it?" William coldly swept his gaze across the group of people, "Then what are you all doing sitting here every day?"
"We're researching it."
The staff lowered their heads in silence. The CEO wanted them to create something out of nowhere once he had an new idea.
"But you didn't figure it out." William said coldly, "Forget it, I'll give you two another three days.
With that, William turned and walked out.
A bunch of idiots. Looks like he had to do it himself.
William lowered his eyes as he walked, looking at the time on his watch. It was still British time, and he had not adjusted it after returning.
He went into the office and sat down at his desk to work.
As he did so, his finger moved to the mouse and opened the photo.
In the photo, Alice smiled as she faced the sun, looking very beautiful.
Knowing that he was going to marry her made her so happy.
As William looked at the photo, his long fingers quickly started to type on the keyboard, outlining Alice's character from the picture. He then put it into another program to create a 3D model.
His speed was very fast, and Alice's 3D character model slowly became lively on the computer.
In the next second, William operated the computer, his index finger pressed a certain key.
Alice appeared in front of the desk.
She bent over the desk, her hands were placed behind her back, and she leaned forward.
Looking at Alice, William suddenly felt a lot more comfortable. Ever since he came back from England, he had always felt extremely uncomfortable.
So that was the problem.
William leaned his body back and stared straight at Alice who was standing in front of the desk.
The secretary was startled when she knocked on the door and went in.
The empty space in front of William's desk was filled with Alice's holographic image.
Alice who was standing there, who was sitting and drinking water there...
This scene was shocking.
"CEO, CEO."
The secretary thought she was a person who had some knowledge. She stammered as she smiled and slowly walked in front of William. He glanced at the holographic image and said, "CEO is missing Miss Alice."
"Ding."
William pressed a button, and all the holographic image disappeared. His looked coldly at the secretary, "Is something wrong?" "It's like this, CEO, the blood diamond that you requested for last time has been completed, I just got it." The secretary placed a dark blue box on the desk.
Hearing this, William's black eyes lit up. After pausing for a few seconds, he then opened the box and found a diamond ring quietly lying inside. The diamond was cut into a heart shape, shining with a beautiful light.
With just a glance, William could tell that it was exactly the same as the previous one.
He could always get Alice what she wanted.
"So beautiful."
The secretary said.
William looked at her coldly, the secretary kept quiet and lowered her head, "Sorry, CEO, I spoke too much."
"It's really beautiful?"
William asked coldly.
"It's pretty, which woman won't be moved by diamonds, especially such a beautiful diamond. It's too romantic. I believe that Miss Alice will definitely be moved to tears when she sees this."
Tears?
It was possible because she loved to cry so much.
"Alright, you can leave now." William said coldly.
"Yes, CEO."
The secretary lowered her head and retreated. After a few steps, she heard William's voice, "Go and inform the Finance Department that from this month onwards, you will receive a 20% raise of your wage."
"Thank you, CEO!"
The secretary thanked him in surprise. When she walked out of the office, she was already walking on air. It turned out that raising her salary was such an easy thing to do.
The office door closed, and in the next second, Alice's holographic images appeared again. Under William's work, these images were vivid and lifelike, as if they were real people.
