After work, Ashley and Tim arrived at Burke’s villa. Burke was on a call, frowning.

Seeing them, he hung up, sat down, and said, “After reviewing your research, a few people want to meet you. I’ll introduce you when the opportunity

arises.”

Ashley nodded obediently. “Okay.”

Her research had been officially approved for national funding. Burke then discussed the details with her.

Afterwards, Ashley and Tim asked Burke a few questions before leaving late at night.

The next morning, in the office, Ashley was reviewing the resumes for the tech department that HR had pre-screened. Then, she paused.

Tim was nearby. Seeing her expression, he asked, “What’s wrong?”

“I saw Tanya’s resume.”

Tim raised an eyebrow, smiling.”She actually applied? She’s persistent.”

Ashley didn’t speak, directly throwing Tanya’s resume away.

Tim was going on a business trip that afternoon.”I’ll leave you with the roundtable discussion the day after tomorrow.”

Ashley said, “No problem.”

The roundtable discussion was a government-business summit convened by the city government. Only about thirty companies were invited.

Ashley, representing Eternal, arrived at the venue. As she got out of her car, she saw a familiar face. She paused briefly, then looked away. She walked up the steps into the lobby.

Jeffery watched Ashley’s back. As he was about to follow, someone called him.”Mr. Cooper”

Jeffery turned.”Mr. Sterling.”

Chase shook hands with him.”It’s been a while.”

“Indeed.”

They chatted as they walked upstairs to the conference room. Each seat had a company nameplate. Ashley was already seated at hers when they entered. Both Jeffery and Chase saw her. Jeffery was surprised when he saw Chase’s seat was next to Ashley’s.

Chase remained impassive.

The conference table was rectangular. Jeffery was seated opposite Ashley and Chase. Chase nodded at him with a smile before sitting down next to Ashley,

Ashley silently looked at her phone, showing no intention of greeting him.
