Chapter 92
Glancing at the pile of documents on the desk, I nodded. As I had previously asked her to
pay attention to OrbitTech, I asked, “Let me see the market report for HiTech. The feedback
for the products seems quite good. Are there any updates regarding OrbitTech?”
She replied, “Yes. OrbitTech and HiTech have released a product in the AI education
category at the same time. As their target consumer group is students, their publicity efforts
are mainly concentrated in schools. The product is quite good, but the price and cost are
quite high. Hence, only a selected group of people can afford it.”
I nodded. “Okay. Continue keeping an eye on them. If necessary, you can arrange for a
meeting between the president of OrbitTech and myself.”
As OrbitTech was focused on technology research and development, its marketing and
management efforts were not exceptional. If Fuller Corporation could acquire a technology
powerhouse like OrbitTech, it could have a breakthrough for its future developments in the
technology field.
Stacey nodded. “Understood. However, the manager of OrbitTech’s marketing department
seems to be in close contact with a technology company in A City.”
“I see.” As a technology company, it probably wanted to find investors to expand its
business. Not concerned about it, I raised my head and looked at Stacey. “Are you dating?”
She was stunned for a while before smiling shyly. “Yeah, we’re going to get married soon.”
As she spoke, she subconsciously touched the wedding ring on her finger.
I smiled. “Does he work in the same industry as us? Why don’t we have a meal together?”
Looking like a woman happily in love, she chuckled and said, “He’s quite busy recently, so he
doesn’t have much time to spare. Why don’t we wait till this busy period passes? If you don’t
mind, I’d like you to be our presider.”
“You’ve already decided to marry?” I was a bit shocked. From my recent observations, she
had only dated for one or two months.
Blushing, she nodded and explained, “We were classmates. We’ve known each other for a
long time, but we’ve only started dating recently. Our families have been urging us, so we
decided to get married.”
I laughed and did not say anything else. After Stacey placed the documents down and left, I
received a call from Jared.
I picked up the call and greeted, “Hello, Dr. Crest!”
“Are you free, Scarlett?” He sounded like he wanted to talk to me about something.
Stunned momentarily, I replied, “I’m meeting Macy tonight. What’s the matter?”
He fell silent for a while before saying, “It’s nothing. Ashton called me to check up on your
body.”
I subconsciously frowned and replied, “I’m fine. You don’t have to worry.”
“Did you guys get into a fight?”
“No!”
Our disagreements could not be counted as full-fledged arguments. We simply did not see
eye to eye because we were both on different wavelengths.
After a slight pause, he continued, “That’s good, then. There’s a box on my office’s desk
which contains some supplement pills. You can come and retrieve it whenever you’re free.
Remember to take it regularly.”
“Alright. Thank you!”
“You’re welcome.”
After chatting for a while, I hung up the call and glanced at the clock. The workday had
already ended.
I was going to meet Macy at the shopping mall, so I tidied my desk and headed directly to
the car park. After what happened the previous time, I rarely parked my car in the
underground car park.
Instead, I parked it in the open car park on the ground floor. Underground car parks were
often dark and shady. Although an open car park would expose my car to the sun, it was still
safer.
After getting into the car, I reversed the car out of the parking lot. I was about to leave when
I suddenly spotted someone familiar. A slightly chubby middle-aged man was sitting in a
black Cayenne beside Joe’s red sports car. Somehow, his figure looked familiar to me.
Although I didn’t manage to see the face of my kidnapper clearly, I could remember his
figure well. I could not help but stop my car and scrutinize the middle-aged man sitting in
the Cayenne.
However, the man drove away quickly.
As I did not get a good look at the kidnapper, and there were a lot of chubby middle-aged
men around, it was difficult for me to identify him amongst so many people.
After hesitating for a while, I still drove toward the shopping mall where I was supposed to
meet Macy.
By the time I arrived, Macy had already been waiting for me for a long time. When she saw
me, she pouted and lamented, “Scarlett, you’re late for half an hour.”
Passing a cup of milk tea to her, I explained, “I’m not late on purpose. There’s a traffic jam
along the way. As an apology, here’s a cup of milk tea I bought for you.”
She took it from my hands and replied proudly, “Since you’re so sincere, I’ll let you off the
hook.”
The shopping mall in the city center of J City was humongous. Perhaps it had been quite
some time since Macy last came out, she was extremely excited. In fact, she deliberately
skipped breakfast in the morning just to prepare herself for the sumptuous seafood buffet
here.
I chuckled, recalling the times in college when we did not have a lot of money. In order to eat
good food, we would save up for a long time before splurging on a buffet together.
Memories were the souvenirs of time.
Come to think of it, those were the happiest days of my life. Although I was poor, I did not
love anyone—life was carefree and burdenless.
After dinner, Macy dragged me into a baby shop. She walked around and picked some items
which I would need once my baby is born.
Glancing at the pile of documents on the desk, I nodded. As I had previously asked her to
pay attention to OrbitTech, I asked, “Let me see the market report for HiTech. The feedback
