Chapter 969 1 Made A Promise Sleeping with Nathaniel was something that Jessica had considered long ago. With Miranda's suggestion, her desire to win over Nathaniel grew even stronger.
Cecilia never would have imagined that Jessica could be so bold.
That night, she settled into bed quite early, engrossed in strategizing how to snatch the project away from Imminence Corporation.
She initially planned to ask Nathaniel if he had any strategies, but after sthought, she realized that she had to rely on herself for everything and couldn't completely depend on others.
And so, Cecilia didn't bring it up with Nathaniel.

"I'm not tired, so I decided to play with my phone for a bit," responded Cecilia.
Nathaniel leaned over, swiftly plucking her phone from her hands. “Con, tfor bed." Left with no choice, all Cecilia could do was obediently lie down, close her eyes, and drift off to sleep.
Before she went to sleep, Cecilia's mind was filled with thoughts of work. The next day, she still didn't wake up even though it was somewhat late. Nathaniel didn't bother rousing her but instead stayed at home, waiting for her to rise.
Jessica got up at her usual time. Upon noticing that Cecilia was still in bed at nine, she wondered to herself, Could she be skipping work today? Is it because she thinks she'll lose her bet with Miranda? Jessica may not have had much, but she certainly had plenty of ideas.
She went to the office alone ahead of time, then informed everyone that Cecilia might not return to the company out of fear of failure.
Everyone in the company found it beyond belief.
"Just yesterday, she was so full of confidence, but now, she doesn't even dare to show up at the office?" "This is way too embarrassing." "Personally, I think with Imminence Corporation riding high right now, there's no way Ms. Smith will win her bet with Miranda." "I agree. But who cares if she loses? She won't really leave the company, will she?" Everyone was chiming in, their hearts filled with a sense of amusement and curiosity, much like spectators enjoying a show while munching on popcorn.
Miranda had also heard the news. Her voice dripped with mockery as she said, "Looks like I truly overestimated her if that's all she amounts to." Meanwhile, when Cecilia woke up, it was already nearing ten o'clock. "Ah, I overslept!" She hurriedly climbed out of bed.
Curiously enough, perhaps because she had been pondering on how to snatch a project from the hands of Imminence Corporation before she went to bed, she genuinely cup with a brilliant idea in her dreams. They had been consistently acquiring land for a while, Constructing residential buildings and developing commercial plazas, among other things.
Hence, Cecilia geared up to seize one of Imminence Corporation's land.
She examined their current strategy, noticing they had a certain level of confidence. It was as if they held no reservations or caution toward this sector.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs Cecilia brushed her teeth and washed her face, her mind was lost in thought. Once she was done freshening up, she headed downstairs. There, she found Nathaniel still in the living room, engrossed in his work.
She couldn't help but express her surprise, "Why didn't you go to the office?" "Hadn't we agreed that I'd drop you off and pick you up from work every time?"
"But I overslept today, and it's already this late." Cecilia felt somewhat m guilty. "Wilkit be a problem for you to go to work now?"
Nathaniel found her question rather peculiar. He was the the boss, after all.
He could head in to work whenever he wanted. What was the big deal? He used to arrive at work punctually, not because of any obligation, but simply because he had a habit of planning everything meticulously.
"Don't worry; I'm the boss. I can start work at whatever tI want."
After hearing this, Cecilia nodded but still said, "As the boss, you're m ultimately a role model for the employees. If I ever wake up too late, just go to work without me." She wasn't that tic that she needed to be escorted to and from work every day.
"No, I made a promise to take you to and from work, and I must fulfill it," Nathaniel firmly responded.
He never promised to do something he couldn't.
