Chapter 306

Chapter 306:

Josue’s confusion was palpable. Then, he realized that his phone’s flash had probably just gone off.

“I was just taking a selfie,” he explained calmly.

Wayne looked like he was about to speak, but Eileen stopped him with a quick glance.

Flashlights didn’t usually go off during selfies, but what was the point of arguing about it? If Josue was willing to engage in a serious discussion about the project, then it didn’t matter.

Eileen slid the project proposal across the table to Josue.

Eileen didn’t fully understand the project herself. Wayne provided a comprehensive introduction while she deftly handled a few tricky questions.

Meanwhile, Bryan received the photo of Eileen. He didn’t notice anything unusual. The image only showed her upper body wrapped in a thick down jacket, which gave her a bulkier appearance.

The private room was softly lit with a purple glow, which highlighted her rosy cheeks and gentle features.

Wayne’s explanation captured Josue’s interest.

“I’m tied up today. Have my secretary set up a meeting for tomorrow at the office,” Josue said, rising from his seat while casually loosening his suit jacket.

His gaze then shifted to Eileen. “Make sure you’re there!”

Overcome with excitement, Wayne nearly knocked over the table in his rush to stand.

Eileen quickly steadied it, her movements calm and controlled. She then confirmed the meeting time with Josue.

Wayne had expected disappointment, but now he reveled in this unexpected progress.

Eileen hadn’t anticipated such a smooth development either. She returned home late that night, only to endure a lengthy lecture from Ruby before finally retreating to her room.

She didn’t want to sleep.

Meanwhile, back home, the afternoon sun cast long shadows over the room. Julio eagerly awaited Eileen’s updates on the new project.

When she recounted the events, his face lit up with satisfaction.

“Eileen, you’re my lucky charm,” he said with a grin. “Securing Fregustm Caraup and stabilizing it so quickly exceeded my expectations.”

With multiple successful projects under his belt, Julio commanded respect within the company, his authority unchallenged by Ferguson Group’s senior management.

“There’s no need to be overly grateful. Our relationship is purely business — we discuss mutual interests. I’ve gained something valuable too,” Eileen replied coolly.

Her interactions with Julio were always transactional, focused solely on mutual benefits.
