CHAPTER 34: CHAPTER 34: ASSISTANT SHEPHERD IS TRULY LOYAL

Adrian Lancaster possesses a steadiness beyond his years, and his reservoir of knowledge and density of information surpass many others.

Listening to him in meetings is a pleasure; you can learn a lot.

While Ivy Jennings’ admiration for the President was something Dustin Shepherd had long since noticed.

When the President went to attend the morning meeting, Dustin couldn’t help but ask, "Ivy, during the days I wasn’t around, you were always with the President. Did he reward you alone?"

Ivy didn’t answer, but instead asked him about Faye Turner.

Dustin certainly wouldn’t gossip about himself, nor would he reveal that he had failed in confessing his feelings.

He simply told her, "The girl is named Faye Turner, she’s my high school classmate, a quintessential ’sunflower girl’, with a great personality, resilient and lovable!"

Mentioning Faye Turner brought a smile to Dustin’s eyes.

In any case, every word he spoke was in praise of her, so much so that Ivy didn’t really want to listen, "So what’s her relationship with the President then?"

This question left Dustin stunned, "They... have a relationship? Just a regular employee and the big boss relationship, right!"

But Ivy didn’t believe that, yet she knew Dustin’s information was indeed quite limited.

After the morning meeting ended, Adrian Lancaster returned to the office.

Ivy Jennings brought over some materials to report, "President, Mark has quite the inflated ego. According to the intelligence gathered, there are three other companies in Argent City that really want to collaborate with him and have arranged receptions, planning to intercept him directly."

Adrian Lancaster sat at the desk, his gaze indifferent, "The higher the ego, the more we have to do our homework, cater to his preferences, serve him well, and impress him with absolute sincerity."

Ivy gently placed the materials on the desk, "These are all his preferences. He is someone who really cares about food."

"Alright, let me take a look." The man casually picked them up, "You go ahead with your work."

"Alright, President."

Adrian Lancaster had wanted to negotiate cooperation with Mark for several years; this project could bring significant profits and further stabilize Prestige Group’s position internationally.

As a successful businessman, no one ever complains about having too much money.

Adrian Lancaster paused his work and picked up the materials for a detailed look, enough to demonstrate his seriousness about the matter.

As he continued reading, he suddenly noticed an important detail—

Every time Mark came to Argent, no matter how tight his schedule, he would visit The Fairy Tale Nook to order a dessert called ’Sunset Sweet’.

Yes, every single time.

Adrian Lancaster couldn’t help but wonder, Mark’s time is so precious, yet he makes a personal visit, enough to show how much he loves this dessert.

If they could prepare this dessert in advance for him at the hotel this time, would it be a delightful surprise?

But at the same time, Adrian was also curious, does this dessert have something special?

Is it not available elsewhere?

He hadn’t heard of The Fairy Tale Nook, so he started looking up information about it online.

Just an ordinary little shop by the river, not even a chain franchise.

This thought left Adrian Lancaster deep in thought, does it really have such magic?

On the 11th floor, outside the design department’s large office, at the integrated large printer in the public area, Faye Turner had been standing for half an hour.

"Faye, why do you have so much stuff to print?" Dustin came over.

The girl turned her gaze upon hearing the voice, "You’ve been discharged from the hospital?"

"Just a minor injury, I was discharged that afternoon." Seeing her, Dustin’s eyes sparkled with joy; he was genuinely happy and noticed her busyness, "I’ve seen you here for half an hour, and I’ve finished my work, but you’re still here."

"Almost done." Faye was used to doing odd jobs, "Actually, none of this is really mine."

Detecting a hint of helplessness, Dustin frowned, "Did Director Jennings ask you to do this?"

The girl nodded.

"This is really too much, isn’t it?" Dustin defended her, "You do this all day long, how do you have time for your own work?"

"Exactly..." Faye wasn’t the type to willingly suffer; she smiled at him, "Could you help me speak to Director Jennings when you have a moment?" After all, she also wanted to carve out time to design ’Eternal Moment.’

"Alright." Dustin nodded, "I’m free now."

With that, he turned and went to Nancy Jennings’ office.
