Four o’clock in the afternoon. Elliana Lyle ended today’s livestream with a bowl of wontons. She raised her hands upwards, stretching to relieve the pain in her shoulders and the tension from sitting for too long. Sure enough, sitting for too long is not good, her whole body feels uncomfortable. She lifted the celadon bowl from the computer desk and stood up. This computer desk was the one she had moved from the study, and she wondered if Norman Bennett would say anything when he saw it. After leaving the bedroom, Lana was cleaning the kitchen, holding a cloth and wiping every corner spotless. It seemed like Lana lived the same routine every day, waking up in the morning to clean the house, then cooking, and continuing to tidy the house in the morning, organizing everything neatly. Even the leaves of the fake green plants by the window were wiped down. She bought that large pot of green plants, the seller told her it’s easy to care for, and it’s evergreen, it won’t die no matter how long it’s not watered. She always thought it was amazing until one day she wanted to pluck a leaf to make a bookmark, only to discover it’s made of plastic. "Lana." She walked towards the kitchen counter and put down the empty bowl she had finished eating from. "Madam, you’re done with your work?" Lana turned her head, immediately tossing aside the cloth in her hand and hurriedly carried the bowl she just put down to the sink. She moved her limbs and walked towards the sofa, "I’m done, today that’s about it. Lana, I tell you, I’m going to make a lot of money, and when the time comes, I’ll treat you to a meal." The gifts sent today must add up to about ten million, minus half from the platform’s cut, she would still get five million. Although this money was sent by Norman Bennett. She had asked Raymond Wood, the gifts were sent by Radiant Light’s director, but paid by Norman Bennett. Such a big scene, probably going to be a minor hot topic tomorrow, which is also an indirect promotion for Radiant Light. Reaching the sofa, she decided not to sit down, looking at the bright warm sun outside the French window, she suddenly wanted to go for a walk. "Lana, get ready, we’re going out..." She suddenly paused, instead of going for a walk, perhaps it’s better to pick up Norman Bennett from work. Even if Norman Bennett couldn’t get off work on time, she’d be willing to wait at the company. Since she needed to interview those artists tomorrow, she had to learn from Norman Bennett how to be an interviewer. It’s not good to go empty-handed, the apple juice Lana made today was nice, freshly squeezed, and it would be good to bring a cup over. After handling it personally, the fruit chunks rotated at high speed in the juicer, and it took about a few minutes to wait. She sat on the sofa and scrolled through videos, not knowing what was going on today, it seemed like it stirred up a nest of late night food shows. Especially the bubbling nine-grid beef oil hot pot, chili and Sichuan peppercorns rolling back and forth in the hot red broth, a piece of tripe goes in, and a few seconds later comes out wrapped in bright beef oil. Then dip it in garlic sauce oil! Imaginably, it must be a mouthful of lingering fragrance, full of spicy and savory flavors. She could already feel the crisp tenderness of the tripe. Hadn’t had hot pot for a while, and suddenly she craved it, thinking about it made her feel miserable. But Norman Bennett definitely wouldn’t let her eat it, maybe getting a twin flavor pot would be okay? Adding some pea shoots, simply perfect! After swallowing, she decided, she had to eat hot pot tonight! Ordering a mildly spicy twin flavor pot, Norman Bennett would surely agree, after all, in her heart, Norman Bennett isn’t a strict person at all. ―――Melody Harmony Group. Elliana Lyle just got out of the car, followed by the bodyguards from the two cars in front and behind also getting off. Honestly, going out really didn’t require so many people, but feeling helpless, these people were arranged by Norman Bennett. And they only listened to Norman Bennett. Just a few steps out, two rather imposing bodyguards were already walking ahead of her, about two meters away. Four on each side, and four behind. She was such a tiny figure, compared to Lana, standing in the middle she looked like a petite figure being protected. Wearing casual, loose t-shirts and hidden denim shorts, with dual-wear strawberry strap sandals on her feet. No height, no aura, she looked like a fallen princess just retrieved by a wealthy family, extremely conspicuous. After entering Melody Harmony’s gates, the bodyguards no longer followed, leaving Lana to accompany her in the elevator. Just pushed open the office door, she was stopped by a scene right away. A woman dressed in a black pencil skirt and white shirt was standing by Norman Bennett’s desk, slightly lowering her head, seeming like she had done something wrong. Along with Raymond Wood who was standing in front of Norman Bennett’s desk but facing away from her, so she couldn’t see his expression. While Norman Bennett was sitting in the office chair with a stern look in his eyes, an unsympathetic expression on his face, looking unapproachable. Seemed like he was angry. What did these two do wrong? Norman Bennett immediately noticed Elliana Lyle’s small head peeking through the door, the cold air on his face dissipated by half. He gestured to her with his hand, palm facing down, with minimal movement, yet the warmth in his eyes was unmistakable. The man was angry just a moment ago, but upon seeing her, there was a significant change in his mood, this special treatment made her inexplicably happy. However, she couldn’t just go over eagerly like before, since there were others present, she had to maintain her image. When she reached Norman Bennett’s side, she finally saw the woman’s face clearly, wasn’t this...Susan? Melody Harmony’s design director. She had seen Susan at the South City Melody Harmony headquarters, actually, the Melody Harmony headquarters had already moved to North City, so did Susan move over too? They exchanged a glance, each with an unfriendly look. Perhaps it was intuition, she didn’t like Susan, but not to the extent of dislike. This was directed at Susan by Norman Bennett, Susan pursed her lips upon hearing it, looking like she was wronged and about to shed tears. This update ıs available on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮※𝓷𝓮𝓽 Elliana Lyle felt a pang of pity seeing her this way. Yet it only made Norman Bennett even more disdainful. But Susan, being a strong woman, certainly wouldn’t cry in such situations, she bowed respectfully, "President, I’ll leave first." After saying that, she turned around and left, very clean and efficient. While she was still in a daze, Raymond Wood glanced at her, then spoke to Norman Bennett, "President, all personnel have been sent to The Bennetts, but we still need to dispatch staff from the company to temporarily replace them." "Hm, you go arrange it." Norman Bennett responded indifferently. The message was clear, Raymond Wood naturally knew he ought to leave, staying here wasn’t suitable. "Why did you come here today?" Norman Bennett pulled Elliana Lyle into his arms. Lana also hurriedly put down the water cup and left in a rush. "I missed you, so I came to see you. By the way, I made you juice, apple juice." Saying that, she offered the cup to Norman Bennett as if presenting a treasure. The man took a symbolic sip, probably trying to probe, she puffed up one cheek and said, "I tasted it, it’s fine!" Norman Bennett finished the cup of juice in one breath; after all, the cup didn’t hold much, she had already drunk more than half at home. After putting down the cup, the man gently said to her, "Hm, it’s very good." "Norman Bennett～What mistake did Susan make? You seemed angry earlier." How could she miss the chance to dig into this gossip? Without any hesitation, the man explained to her, "There was a problem with the design, a team member plagiarized a lesser-known foreign luxury packaging, and as the director, she approved it and sent it over to me." She understood immediately, fortunately, Norman Bennett caught it, otherwise approving it would be plagiarism, wouldn’t it?
