Chapter 346
You Hit My Heart
As soon as Joyce returned to the team office, all the project team
members gathered around to congratulate her.
Everyone knew about her smooth entry into the board and word spread
quickly about the new driverless technology.
The colleagues all looked at Joyce with wide eyes and admiration, âI'd
love to see your presentation, how did you do that? Incredible.â
âTo be honest, I have also studied driverless technology, and I have not
made any progress though. Can you tell me more about it? Any
details? How it works?" Another colleague came forward and asked.
They were all just experts in the field of vehicle construction and design
and was very curious about such an advanced idea.
Joyce smiled and waved her hand, "No, I can't tell you just yet. But in
just a few days, I will hold a meeting and we'll design the concept car
together. When the time comes, I would surely need your help."
"Great!" A colleague responded first, "By the way, I heard that our
project is going to be upgraded.â He said excitedly, "I just heard it from
the HR department.â
"Upgrade?" Joyce was surprised.
"Yes, we will soon be an official R&D department, and we can enjoy the
same resources and status as the group's highest level scientific
research project team. We will even have a special site laboratory. The
headquarters is already looking for a site for us. A special site, where
you can test the car speed, steering, impact endurance and so on."
This colleague proudly said, "Finally, we are one of the official R&D
team of the group!"
"Why are you so proud? It's all thanks to Joyce." Juanita came forward
and nonchalantly slapped her male colleague on the head.
"Oops."
The colleague exclaimed, "Can't I even be proud? From now on, we will
have a board member in our team!"
"Okay, well, everyone just back to your work. I have got something to
take care of."
Joyce smiled as she returned to her seat, turned on her computer, and
got ready to work.
A few moments later, Juanita came over with a cup of hand-ground
coffee and handed it to her, "Joyce, the board meeting was already
over, why did you just come back?"
Joyce's hand came to a sudden halt as she took over the coffee, nearly
spilling it.
"Hey, there is a red mark on the top of your neck, what's wrong?"
Juanita said with concern.
"No, no." Joyce hurriedly turned sideways, avoiding Juanita's touch,
and pulled her collar to completely cover her neck, "It's just a mosquito
bite, scratch marks."
Joyce covered up awkwardly, afraid of being discovered.
Fortunately, Juanita was also inexperienced and did not pursue the
matter further.
"Okay, then, I will be going back to work."
"Mm-hmm." Joyce nodded her head repeatedly, just wanting to hurry
up and send Juanita away.
She was relieved when Juanita returned to her seat.
Damn Luther, that beast, in broad daylight, did such a thing to her and
she almost died of embarrassment. Now she felt sticky and
uncomfortable all over. And most importantly, she lost the room.
At the moment, her mind was still in turmoil, even more so after seeing
Charlotte in front of Luther's office.
Charlotte must have gone to Luther, and the thought that Charlotte was
pregnant with a child and had gotten down on her knees yesterday,
begging her to leave Luther, annoyed her to no end.
Now, her heart regrated even more. She had tried to stay away from
him, but they got only deeper and deeper. Just now they even such a
ridiculous thing in his office.
She thrust her five fingers deep into her long hair and sighed in
annoyance.
She didn't want to think about these complicated relationships for the
time being, and concentrated on her work.
The first step was to bring the automotive integration casting project to
a successful conclusion. Then the design of the new project could be
started.
At noon, Joyce simply ate a hamburger for lunch, and then went back
to work.
