Josie smiled as she took the flowers.

Josie blushed a little as she ced her flowers into the empty vase on her desk.
“Thank you. That one was actually ipretty /ifun. iIt’s /igood ithe /iowner iwas /ibso /bentrici./i”
For the past several months, Josie had been working under the name Elizabeth Bowen. Herpany, Imperial Architecture and Designs was slowly bing a huge sess. After the signing of the contracts, Joshua helped her set up herpany while also keeping her true identity a secret. All the meetings up until this point was done through her personal assistant Emily Wright.
She hired Emily right after she was wrongfully terminated from HT–Corp. Her father’spany. Emily was one of HT–Corp’s best assistants, but after pointing out several different errors Vanessa made on a proposal, Vanessa had her fired. With the exception of Marlon, Joshua, Evelyn, and Georgia…Emily was the only other person who knew the truth about Josie.
Joshau handed Josie a stack of papers.
“What’s ithis/i?”
“iMy /iiuncle /iis itrying /iifind /iiout who /iiyou /iireally /iiare /iiand /iiwhere /iiyou’re /iilocated /iiso /iihe /iican /iipoach /iiyou/ii./ii” /i
Josie’s eyes shot up at Joshua; she already knew about the power struggles happening at Watts–Corp. In a lot of ways, his grandfather sound a lot like her own father. Treating one child better than the other, giving him a sense of self satisfaction and indulgment. Josie could rte to the resentment.
“Is ithat /iiright/ii…/iihmm/ii…/iishould /iiI /iibe /iiworried/ii?/ii” /i
Joshua smiled mischievously, this game of cat and mouse with his uncle was actually bringing excitement to him. The fact that he was already working with the prize made it all the more thrilling.
“iNot /iiat /iiall/ii. /iiActually/ii, /iiI’d /iilike /ito istart /iiworking /iion /iithe /iipetition /iifor /iiDelgato /iiReal /iiEstate/ii./ii” /i
“iHave /iiyou /i

Joshua grinned.
“iNah/ii…/iiwe’ll /iikeep /iithat /ia secret ifor /iinow/ii./i”
Josie smiled lightly, she knew Joshua was having fun with all of this, but she couldn’t afford to lose sight of her overall goal no matter much i‘/iifun/i‘ this wasb. /bBefore she could respond, Emily ran into the office with an excited expression on her faceb. /b
“iMs. /iiElizabeth/ii…/ilook iat /iithis/i!”
Josie stood as Emily handed her the letter. Her eyes began to widen as she read over the contents. Suddenly, a huge grin appeared on Josie’s face. Confused, Joshua stood up.
“What iis /iit?”
Josie looked up at Joshua, her face filled with glee.
“Looks like the Taylors are interested in the services of iElizabeth /iiBowen/i.”
Like James, Christian had also been trying to find out who this i‘/iElizabeth iBowen/i‘ was. He’d saw the openings she’d designed for those high–end restaurants and galleries. Word was spreading that two more projects designed by her wasing out. He couldn’t help but feel he’d seen her work before; nheless, Christian felt that if HT was going to have a shot atnding that real estate contract by winning the contest, they would need this Elizabeth Bowen.
“iDad/i, iI /ithink ithis /iwould ibe /iia /iigreat /iopportunity, iI /iimean /iiher /iiwork /iiis /iiexquisite/ii./ii” /i
Harold stared at the pictures from thetest opening, his brows furrowed.
i“/iiI /iadmit, iher /iiwork /iis idefinitely /iiunique/i. iBut /iiI /iidon’t /iilike /iithe /iiidea /iiof /iigoing /iiinto /iibusiness /iiwith /iisomeone /iiI /iidon’t /iknow. Besidesb, /bwhat about Nessai?/ii” /i
Christian’s brows furrowed; he thought Vanessa was extremely talented, but he wasn’t sure she was ready for that type ofpetition.
i“/iiDo /iiyou /iithink /iishe’s /iiready/ii?/ii” /i
Harlod pondered that thought for a moment before finding apromise.
“iFind /iiout /iiwhat /iiyou /iican /iion /iithe /iiBowen /iigirl/ii…/iiif /iishe’s /iias good /iias /iimany /iiims/i, imaybe /iiwe /iican /iuse iboth /iiher /iiand /iiVanessa/ii./ii” /i
Christian nodded, immediately sending his assistant on the task of finding Elizabeth Bowen. fn7dd9 Th? link to the orig?n of this information r?sts ?n f?ndnovel/fn7dd9
Josie smiled at Emily.
“iTime /iifor /iiphase /iitwo/i.”
