She nced back at Ellsworth, seeing him with his eyes closed

and his chin resting on her shoulder. Harriet grabbed his wristsb, /b

trying to remove his hands from her waist, but Ellsworth

suddenly said in a low voice, “Harriet, these past few years have

been exhausting for me too.”

At Ellsworth’s words, Harriet’s attempt to remove his hands

stopped.

For a moment, she didn’t know what to say.

Harriet didn’t remove his hands, so Ellsworth kissed her cheek.

When he tried to kiss her lips, Harriet turned her face away, and

his kissnded on the side of her neck.

He wasn’t angry at her avoidance, but instead bit her neck hard,

twice.

Harriet gasped and raised her hand to cover her neck.

Later, seeing that Ellsworth still wouldn’t let go, Harriet finally

pushed him away, reminding him to take a shower and get

some rest.

He was as obedient as if they were saying goodbye.

The next day.

When they woke up, both got ready for work as usual. Harriet remained calm andposed, even though Ellsworth had left

several kiss marks on her neck.

Ellsworth, too, had returned to his usual cool demeanor.

It was as if the man who had hugged Harriet and confessed his

exhaustion the night before wasn’t him at all.

At ten in the morning, after finishing a meeting with Jonas and

the others, Harriet had just returned to her office when arge group of people came bustling in from the main office area.

Harriet looked up and saw that it was people from the

Townsend Group, led in by Grayson.

Surrounded by the crowd, Ellsworth always stood out, full of

confidence and poise.

Beside him, Kelsey wore a red dress, her face beaming with a

radiant smile as she apanied him.

Looking at them from afar, they seemed like a perfect match.

Kelsey looked even more like Mrs. Townsend.

Ever since Kelsey returned to the country, it seemed that Ellsworth would bring her along to every asion.

Watching the crowd through the ss, Harriet knew Ellsworth

was here today to sign a contract. Kelsey had voluntarily stepped aside, making way for his cooperation with Gxy

Innovations.

Of course, thepensation he gave Kelsey was also very

generous.

Even though Rushtar Group wasn’t really qualified to work with

Gxy Innovations.

Watching Grayson make his way upstairs through the crowd,

and seeing Kelsey enthusiastically walking beside Ellsworth, Harriet calmly withdrew her gaze, picked up the meeting

materials from earlier, and continued working.

In the upstairs conference room, once Ellsworth and Reginald

had finalized the terms of cooperation and the agreement, both

Chapter134

parties proceeded to the press conference for the signing

ceremony.

Not many people from Gxy Innovations attended; besides

bringing Grayson, Reginald was apanied by two other

shareholders.

Shareholders who were rather mysterious.

They never participated in or interfered with thepany’s

business; all matters, big or small, were handled solely by

Reginald.

At the signing ceremony, the two shareholders did not appear in

person; they only reported the situation to the higher–ups on

behalf of Gxy Innovations.

Seeing Kelsey always at Ellsworth’s side, radiant with

happiness, a reporter couldn’t help but ask her a question.

“Ms. Graham, we’ve heard that Rushtar Group was originally

involved in the Gxy Innovations optoelectronics project. Why

did they withdrawter?”

“Ms. Graham, I’ve heard about this as well. Could you exin it

to us, Ms. Graham?”

Faced with the reporters‘ questions, Kelsey remained

Unhurried and smiling at the reporter who asked, Kelsey replied, “Rushtar Group’s main focus recently has been on the

acquisition of Voyage Group.”

“Of course, automation and intelligent technology will be the mainstream of future development and are undeniably the main driving force for social progress.”

“That’s why Rushtar Group has been investing in and paying close attention to automation and intelligent technology in recent years. Personally, with the help of Ellsworth, president of the Townsend Group, I have also found professional mentors for further study.”

“Rushtar Group has also invested in several other information

technology projects. This time, I apanied Mr. Townsend to

sign the cooperation agreement with Gxy Innovations to

learn from better and bigger enterprises. I believe ourpany will have opportunities to cooperate with Gxy Innovations in

the future as well.”

Kelsey was poised and impable, leaving no room for error.
