Chapter 1928

It was a dreamless night.

Knowing that Liam would be coming, she woke up the next day before dawn even broke.

After she washed, she stayed inside the dressing area for a while and debated on what to wear. She ended up

opting for a formal shirt paired with a fitted skirt with a coat thrown on top. She combed her hair neatly behind her

ears.

With that, she walked out of the dressing area, ready for the day.

Brianne and Logan had already supplied the required documents to her. All she needed to do was to hand them

over to Liam and brief him about the details.

At around ten, the receptionist informed her that Liam had arrived.

She rose immediately and went to the VIP room with Logan and Brianne.

The VIP room was on the second floor. They took the elevator, and it took five minutes for them to get

there.

Upon opening the door, the bright, brilliant ceiling lights flashed in their face. They saw a man in a leather jacket

seated on the couch.

Her eyes shone. Her first instinct was to call him by his name, but with Brianne, Logan, and Liam’s crew in the room

with them, she decided against it. She put on a serious expression and greeted him with a professional, polite smile,

“Good afternoon, President Carter.”

Liam had just taken a sip of water. Upon noticing Caprice dressed in her business attire coupled with the formal way

in which she carried herself, he nearly spat out his drink.

He coughed dryly and tried to suppress a laugh, then he spoke, “Good to see you, Miss Stockton.”

Caprice frowned.

Miss Stockton?

What an awkward way of addressing her, she thought.

She swiped a look at him before taking her seat on the couch next to him. She began, “Let’s get started, President

Carter.”

Liam threw a look at her. “Sure.”

Caprice gave Brianne a signal.

Brianne promptly handed the documents to her. Caprice took the docket and handed a copy to Liam. President

Carter, here is our initial proposal.”

Liam took the documents from her, and in the middle of doing so, scraped the tips of his fingers against the flesh of

her hand. There was no telling if it was intentional.

Caprice suddenly felt herself heating up and had to still her breathing. She stole a look at him.

He was already reading the documents as if what happened had barely registered in his mind.

Was it merely accidental?

She quickly brushed it off and collected her thoughts.

Liam went through the documents rather quickly and was finished in no time. After that, he set the

documents on the desk and turned to Caprice.

She smiled. “What do you think?”

She had come up with them herself and formulated them with the help of Brianne and Logan.

She looked at Liam expectantly.

Liam stayed silent for a while before remarking, “It’s fine, but there’s one thing that needs to be changed.”

“What is it?” Caprice asked with a tint of worry in her voice.

Liam glanced at Brianne and Logan who were standing next to Caprice, then he remarked, “This joint project is

different from the previous projects, so reusing the past methodology won’t be suitable.”

Both Brianne and Logan grimaced faintly.

Caprice seemed appalled. “How did you know…”

She had taken most of her ideas from the previous joint projects.

Liam made a look and informed, “My suggestion is to scrap this and rewrite the entire thing.”

Caprice was speechless.

Could this even be a suggestion?

It was more like a complete rejection of the original proposal!

She was feeling slightly upset and let it show.

Brianne and Logan quickly noticed that things were not turning out as well as they hoped. They exchanged a look,

then Brianne stepped in, “President Carter, do you have any ideas?”

Liam peered at Caprice, then at her assistants. “We will come up with the general scheme. You can assist Miss

Stockton and work out the specifics after we finish the site visit later this noon. No need for

anything complicated. Just cover the basics and flesh things out.”

Brianne nodded. “Alright, understood.”
