Chapter 135 Protecting Girlfriend

Of course, Emelle knew about it.

She was the one who organized Samuel’s documents.

She looked up. “So it’s not that you don’t need me at work, right? Do you think I don’t want to see the people from Cloudex Corporation?

Samuel smiled. “You’re saying it like I’m practicing jobbery.”

Wasn’t he?

Emelie hadn’t met anyone who would rather work themselves because they cared about their employee’s feelings.

“You’re worrying too much, Mr. Swanson I’ll be fine. Once you’ve finished everything here, I’ll continue looking for a job.

“The world isn’t that big, and I’m bound to meet people from Cloudex Corporation sometimes. Am 1 going to avoid them every time?”

Emelle added calmly, “They mean nothing to me now.”

”

Since she was so open–minded about it, Samuel had nothing to worry about anymore.

They ended up going to the dinner appointment together that night.

There were a lot of people, and they were all from Samuel’s team.

The leader of the research team, Brandon Drake, led the team as they chatted.

When Brandon opened the door to the room, Emelie looked up and saw a man being flattered by a group of people

It was the second time she saw him that day.

He had changed out of the clothes with the cufflinks she helped put on. At that moment, he was wearing a black suit.

Brandon introduced everyone to the man. When he mentioned Emelle was Sammel’s teaching assistant, the man shot her a cold glance.

Emelie suddenly remembered what he said back at the Middleton residence. “What makes you think I would let you go?”

She held her breath slightly.

After that, William didn’t look at her anymore during the dinner. Everyone was focusing on the partnership.

Emelie was responsible for taking notes of their meeting. Then, she needed to organize the information and turn it into a document.

Basically, Cloudex Corporation invested in Samel’s research team because they needed the technology that the team was working on

The corporation needed it to complete a project on its hands.

Everyone would benefit from it, and it was reasonable.

Cloudex Corporation was a capitalist and not achacity. It they couldn’t benent from something, they would have no reason to invest that much into research.

However, the corporation and research team hadn’t decided on the conditions yes.

That was because Cloudex Corporation limited the research team’s decision.cights.

Samuel was the core of the team, and he took part in the discussion the most

However, he was still able to take care of Emelie at the same time.

When he noticed that the waiter was about to give her some wine, he stopped the waiter. “Please give her a glass of water instead. Thank you!

Emelie was stunned. Then, she nodded at him with a smile to thank him.

The person next to him teased, “Samuel sure loves his girlfriend a lot. He would always protect Ms. Hoven every time we gathered and did not let her drink any

Brandon cleared his throat, and the person returned to his seIDES.

He realized he shouldn’t joke around in that serious situation and immediately shat his mouth.

William watched the scene coldly from the opposite and suddenly said, “So, Ms. Hoven. After all the discussion, what do you think about it?

He had no emotion when he called her Ms. Hoven However, Emelie thought it sounded like he was mocdng her…

In an instant, everyone had their gaze on her.

Samuel frowned. William was basically putting her in a difficult spor, emelie didn’t need to speak atall during the dinner, let alone voice her opinions.

Just as he was about to help her get out of the situation, tamelle calmly said, “Personally, the point of researching is to discover something new,

“We need to follow the flow and not limit ourselves. A limit is like a pair of handcuffs that stops us from achieving something new.”

“You sound like an outsider and not like a teaching assistant at all, Ms. Hoven,” William said coldly.

“A teaching assistant in a university should at least have experience in researching or publishing a thesis.

“They also must have great grades and experience in related internships. Do you have any of those?

*If not, I’m starting to doubt this research team’s professionalism for having you at this table and wondering if you guys are worth my investment.”

stated into his eyes.

She was suce William was doubting her skills because he wanted to make her lose her job again

He didn’t allow her to get a job or even a part–time job. It had been two months. He was basically cutting her off from everything!

“It’s true that Ms. Hoven isn’t a traching assistant. Brandon gave the wrong idea earlier, and I wasn’t able to explain it in time. She’s my secretary at work” Samuel interrupted.

Since Mr. Middleton is doubting our capabilities, there’s no point in this partnership anymore. Let’s end it here. We’ll take our leave now.”

No one expected Samuel to make a scene for a woman, and everyone was surprised

Samuel nodded at everyone to say his goodbyes and hinted at Emelie to leave with him.

Emelie hesitated for a moment before getting up and leaving with him.

After they left, it turned awloward in the room. Brandon tried to ease the tension with an awkward laugh.

“Please don’t mind him, Mr. Middleton. Mr. Swanson is a guy who would protect his girlfriend. He’s young and tough, and they are inseparable. Haha…” William’s face became colder and colder.
