Chapter 283
Georgia went to see Violet first, embellishing the story as she unloaded her frustrations about Victoria. Then she
handed over the documents Ailie had given her.
Violet skimmed through the papers, her eyes lighting up with excitement. This was a flagship project for the
Investment Department this year-the numbers were staggering. If it succeeded, the company could see returns
tripling at the very least.
Developing a new grequired massive capital. After last time's disastrous flop, no matter how Violet tried,
Golden Era Enterprises absolutely refused to get on board.
Though McNeil seemed unbothered on the surface, Violet had picked up on the truth: Curtis was shouldering this
entire gproject alone. McNeil and Victoria had signed skind of contract-no one knew what the terms
were, and Violet still hadn't seen the details.
One thing was clear: Victoria didn't have the money to invest. Worse, if there were profits, she expected
dividends. To Violet, that was barely a step above outright theft.
Most importantly, McNeil hadn't mentioned any of this to her. She couldn't just start demanding answers out of
nowhere-after all, she was McNeil's girlfriend in nonly, not Mrs. Langford.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe had no real stake in the Langford Group and certainly no right to interfere with McNeil's decisions.
"Did Ms. Ailie say when the contract would be ready?" Violet asked.
She intended to go with Ailie herself.
"As soon as possible," Georgia replied. "Ms. Ailie already has a meeting scheduled-she said there's no tto
lose. Once the contract's out, it has to be signed immediately."
Violet quickly told Georgia to deliver the documents to Ailie without delay.
Seeing how seriously Violet regarded these papers, Georgia realized Ailie hadn't lied to her after all. She
remembered the reward Ailie had promised and felt a surge of excitement.
She hurried off to the Investment Department to find Ailie, but when she got there, she found the office door
firmly shut and the blinds drawn.
Violet had just stressed that the documents needed to be signed and the contract prepared by 3:30 p.m. sharp.
It was already 3:15-just fifteen minutes left.
With the office door closed, Georgia had no idea what was going on inside. She pressed her ear to the door and
could hear voices-it sounded like a meeting.
She knocked hard, but just then, the door flew open and someone inside started projecting a mediaon the
screen, launching into a presentation.
The sound from inside drowned out her knocking, and even if anyone noticed, Ailie had a strict rule: no
interruptions during meetings, no matter what, and absolutely no one was to address any distractions.
Georgia was left outside, pacing anxiously like a cat on a hot tin roof.
She tried calling Ailie, but her phone was switched off. She dialed the Investment Department staff, but nearly
everyone's phones were also off.
With the deadline fast approaching, Georgia didn't dare go back and tell Violet she couldn't reach Ailie-Violet
would think she couldn't handle even this simple task.
Standing helplessly outside the door, Georgia racked her brain for a solution. She decided to rope in managers
from other departments to ask for Ailie, hoping that might work.
Two minutes after she left, the door opened and Ailie emerged from the office.
The meeting was over. Slinging her

"Where's Ms. Ailie?" she blurted, still clutching the files, hurrying inside.
