Chapter 200
Regardless of everyone's inquiries, Darcy explained righteously and emphasized her position. She Was an employee of the Emperor Group, and Waylon was her boss.
In this way, although some people still held a skeptical attitude, it would be hard for them to say anything.
The news soon reached Waylon's ears. When he heard the speculation circulating in the company, he didn't even move his eyebrows.
Now that he was a married man, the rumors would taint Darcy's reputation
So he called Bill and said, "Handle those rumors about the company and don't let these rumors affect Darcy."
Bill knew that Darcy was Waylon's life-saver, and he did not dare to neglect his duties.
"Okay, I'll deal with it immediately." Bill nodded, and then he dealt with the matter immediately.
On the other side, Alena encountered a problem.
The design drawings she did for the collaboration with Eton Group were lost. The day before, she clearly remembered that she had locked all the materials in the drawer before she got off work. But that day, all the materials in the drawer disappeared.
Alena was furious. She put a lot of effort into this design. Also, this was the collaboration of her idea with the Eton Group. Now that she lost it, it would be complicated for her to explain to the other party.
She didn't dare to hide the problem. Alena immediately went to Christiano.
Christiano frowned. He endured and forbore to restrain his temper but to no avail. "Alena, you are too careless!"
"Yes, I know this incident is my fault." Alena lowered her head. Christiano initiated this project. She was highly recommended to be the designer, but something like this happened.
She said guiltily, "Sir, I'm sorry. Is there any solution for this matter?"
Christiano glanced at her. The petite woman looked very worried, and her voice was guilty.
He sighed helplessly, "Eton Capital Group values this collaboration very much, and they provide the design ideas and concepts. If it is messed up, the responsibility lies on us."
Alena raised her head fiercely. "Can you ask them to provide it again? I promise I will do it better than last time!"
"It is impossible." Christiano said, "The Eton Group is not an ordinary company, unless-"
"Unless what?" Alena asked.
As long as there was a solution, no matter what it was, she would try it.
"Unless you can design better works than the ideas they provide and prove yourself to them, then there may be room for change!" Christiano said with a deep voice.
However, if she would not do it, Alena's reputation would be ruined entirely.
When Alena heard this, she understood the stakes. After a moment of silence, she said with a firm resolve, "Okay, sir, give me a few days. I will come up with a better design."
Her eyes were firm and bright when she said this, and she exuded a confident aura from the inside out.
Christiano suddenly gained a lot of confidence because of Alena's words. He stood up from the chair and said, "Okay, I will try my best to delay the deadline for you. Alena, don't let me down!"
Alena did not waste time, and after a simple thank you, she returned to her desk.
When they saw her come into their boss's office, her colleagues immediately cast curious glances.
Everyone knew that Alena's design was stolen.
Alena turned a deaf ear and turned a blind eye. She did her own thing.
Whoever wanted to harm her would be found out soon. In the office just now, Christiano promised that she only needed to be at ease to do her design, and other things would naturally come out.
How would she do it? The time that Eton gave for her to finish the designs was about to come. Even if her boss promised her that he would do his best to delay the deadline, she knew it wouldn't be a long-time extension. She must come up with a better plan as soon as possible.
Designing this kind of thing did not only take time. It often required inspiration and talent. Coupled with the excellent creativity provided by Eton, it would not be easy to surpass her previous work.
Alena began to look through the information of Eton Group on the internet and checked their entire company's construction history, but she still had no clue.
Soon it was time to get off work, and all her colleagues left one after another.
Alena put down the pen in her hand and held her forehead with her hands. After she thought about what to do with her problem for so long, her temple felt a little painful.
It seemed that she would have to work overtime that day.
She took out the mobile phone. She wanted to call and talk to Waylon, but she discovered that her mobile phone was out of power. She looked around, but she couldn't find the charger. Alena had no choice but to give up.
Alena took a short break for a few minutes and soon returned to work. The quiet office was only left with the rustle of pencils on the drawing paper.
At the same time, the air in the villa became cold.
Waylon sat silently at the dining table. Darcy was separated from him by a seat. Alena, who was supposed to be sitting in that position, had not yet returned.
Miss Thompson served the last dish and stepped back tremblingly.
Darcy looked at Waylon's gloomy face, and she was delighted.
She didn't know why she hadn't come home yet. Waylon had waited for a long time already. Maybe he was already impatient.
Darcy could see that Waylon was in a bad mood now, and she didn't dare say anything.
Waylon once again dialed Alena's number in this quiet atmosphere, but he still heard the same. "Sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off. Please call again later."
When he heard that Alena's cell phone was turned off, the stern expression in his eyes became colder.
It seemed like she hadn't learned her lesson at all. After only a few days, she dared not to come back early and even turned off the phone!
Darcy felt that she should still say something. After all, she was Alena's best friend. If she didn't say anything, her dislike for Alena would be apparent.
