Chapter 697 - The Pursuit
âI'm sorry to bother you." Jordan's voice was gentle as he said, "My
mom finished her surgery two days ago and she mentioned that the
florist you guys talked about earlier had her favorite Juliette, but she
couldn't quite remember the address so she also bothered Miss
Armstrong to re-tell me again.â
"Is Gracelynn okay?" Camille asked with a concerned look.
Jordan expressed his gratitude and then responded, âWell, the
recovery is good, and I'll be able to leave the hospital in a few days.â
"That's good, say hello to Gracelynn for me." Camille again said the
florist address, is before the two chat Gracelynn mentioned that she
loves to raise flowers, the most favorite is Juliette, it just so happens
that Sienna had previously received Rex sent this, so she casually
mentioned, Gracelynn took it to heart.
Although with Gracelynn and Jordan are only a simple acquaintance,
but from the mouth of Ayan to know Jordan and Gracelynn, because
the Bailey family thing, Camille to the two more or less unspoken
emotions, but not to pity them, because either Gracelynn or Jordan do
not need anyone to pity.
After asking for the florist's address, Jordan expressed his thanks again
and then casually asked, "Miss Armstrong is an architect?"
Camille talked to Gracelynn, and now when she heard Jordan ask, she
also whispered, "Hmm.
Jordan said, âI may be a little presumptuous, but I trust Miss Armstrong
more than any other architect, so would like to inquire about what
would be wrong with a years old cottage that wants to be renovated?"
"I can't directly answer whether you have a problem or not, provided
what you want to keep or remove in the renovation process?"
âThere's retention and there's wanting to delete."
âIf it's convenient for you to send me the overall drawing of the villa you
want to renovate, would you please? Because I can only give you an
accurate answer after looking at the drawing.â
"Okay, then I'll send it to you in the next two days when it's ready, then
I'll trouble Miss Armstrong."
"Mr. Su is very kind, Gracelynn and I are a rare acquaintance, this is
just a small favor.â
Although it was a small favor, Jordan expressed his gratitude several
times, and his courtesy and politeness made Camille feel a little less
than kind.
It's not uncommon to see polite and refined people, but this is the first
time that Jordan has spoken with such a heartfelt sincerity in every
sentence.
His thank you is not someone else's mantra or subconscious, each of
his thank you is from the heart, but also not the kind of very false let
people hear more than one will not by revolting feeling.
After they spoke, Jordan went to buy flowers first thing. Gracelynn was
clearly surprised to see the flowers in his hands, but immediately
asked, "Did you find Camille?"
Jordan didn't answer, but just whispered, "The doctor said that you
shouldn't get too emotional, it's just a bouquet of flowers, don't react so
much.â
âI'm happy, not excited.â Gracelynn retorted.
Jordan raised his eyebrows helplessly sighed, he also bought a vase
by the way, carefully inserted the flowers into the vase on a side table,
he said: "This flower can be raised until you are discharged, I have
ordered with the florist, there are goods to the first time to send home to
you."
Gracelynn nodded, a happy smile on her face, she said, "Jinzhou,
when I get out of the hospital you start to busy yourself, you should also
fall in love, I'm still waiting to hold a grandchild, I can't have what others
have I don't have, right?"
Jordan has some headache, frowning slightly, faintly said: "Let's talk
about it, the fate of the natural love."
âFate is to rely on the initiative, you can not turn away the opposite sex,
to communicate more is right, or you go on a blind date, right?"
"Mom." Jordan was a bit helpless, he didn't really want to continue
discussing this topic, as for personal issues he wasn't in a hurry and
didn't intend to go on a blind date, he changed the subject: âI'm not
going to think about that right now, I want to renovate the place
Grandpa left behind and we'll move there afterwards."
Gracelynn's mother's family is not a powerful family, but the family of
books in the former Hance City is also a place, but since the death of
Jordan's grandfather, the Ye family which is gradually forgotten.
Jordan mentioned the Ye family mansion is located in the west of
Hance City, that area now also has a lot of wealthy areas, the reason
why Jordan to refurbish also because all the facilities there are
convenient, even if he is busy in the future not in Hance CityGracelynn
alone can also live.
For his decision Gracelynn also has no opinion, only asked: "The
house has not been lived in for so many years, although someone
regularly cleaned, but after all, so long, renovation should be very
difficult, right?"
âI mentioned it to Miss Armstrong, and she looked at the photos and
gave me advice."
"Camille?"
"Hmm."
Gracelynn doesn't have any more objections.
After talking to Jordan on the phone, Camille put her phone on her desk
and stretched.
Yessica said, "Cami, does Louise not know what the architect's
representative is responsible for? Why haven't we been informed of the
design proposal yet? Just two days, does she think it's too much time?"
"I don't know, let's wait and see!" Camille is also a bit helpless, after all,
Louise is the representative, she has the say.
But Camille waited for a day but did not wait for Louise's call, the group
is also no news, everyone seems to keep silent, quiet as if banned.
But Camille looked at it several times to make sure there was no ban,
and then just ignored it.
The day passed quickly, and if Louise's first day without news Camille
thought it was probably normal, then the second day Louise was also
unmoving, which made Camille feel a little less than right.
Is Louise forgetting?
Camille frowned and took her phone and looked at it over and over
again, there was no call and no message, not just from her but from
Yessica as well.
If it's her signal or cell phone problem, but it's unlikely that Yessica is
the same as her.
So Camille's subconscious thought was that Louise probably didn't
remember, or that she was going to prepare her own design and then
discuss it at the meeting?
That's all Camille could think of. Since Louise hadn't contacted her,
she'd just keep quiet.
Two days passed and on the morning of the third day, it was the same
time as before, with everyone arriving one after another at nine o'clock
in a special meeting room arranged by the museum.
When Camille and Yessica arrived, two or three architects and their
assistants were already there, chatting in groups.
In a short while, a succession of people arrived, then Jenson and the
secretary also came, and finally only Preston and Louise remained.
Several architects whispered, "Is Representative Holland late with Mr.
Baxter? They couldn't have agreed on this, could they?"
âI think so, Mr. Baxter is so nice to Representative Holland, probably
courting?"
"Well well well, Representative Holland is so good, Mr. Baxter must
have moved too."
Although it was a whispered conversation, but the voice still word for
word into Camille's ears, she only frowned slightly, did not take it
seriously, after all, Preston said himself, he is now with Molly.
The time passed, Jenson's secretary spoke at ten minutes past nine:
"Mr. Evans, Mr. Baxter and Representative Holland have not arrived
yet, why don't I call and ask?"
âNo, there is probably something delayed, it's better to wait!" Jenson
responded indifferently, in a calm mood, seemingly not minding at all,
and not forgetting to raise his eyes to reassure the others in the room,
"Everyone wait a moment.â
Jenson's words had just fallen when the door to the conference room
pushed open from the outside.
The door was opened by Sean, followed by Preston, and then Louise.
The two seem to have come together.
But no one bothered to ask, and after they were all seated, Jenson
went straight to the point and opened the topic of today's meeting.
Jenson said, "Representative Holland, how did the two-day discussion
of the design plan go?"
