Chapter 832 Clara's Plot

"But I don't wanna get up yet! We returned home too late last night. I just feel like I gotta sleep for a little longer. And I don't have work to do. Of course, I can get up whenever I want to." "Are you trying to show off?" Susan couldn't help frowning.

Ever since she got back to work, she had never enjoyed a sound sleep. Every single morning, she had to struggle herself up. Of course, she wished she could sleep for however long she wanted. "Hey, just a kind reminder. It seems that it's time for you to go to work." Hannah smiled.

Not until then did Susan notice that she would be late if she kept on dawdling. She didn't want to expect a sulky face from Manuel. Besides, she got a project to negotiate with their commercial partner. So she needed to head to the office as early as possible to prepare some files.

"Alright, I gotta go. But I won't forget to spend another day celebrating with you to make up for my absence on your birthday."

"I got a birthday every single year. It doesn't matter. Girl, just focus on your job."

"No, every single birthday matters! Whatever, I will call you when it's time. Alright, I gotta hang up."

"Okay."

The next second, Susan hung up the call.

Hannah put down her phone. She found it hard to return to sleep after Susan woke her up. She lifted the quilt and went into the bathroom to wash herself up. After that, she walked out of the room to go downstairs. There was no one else but Max alone.

Max seemed a bit surprised as he didn't expect her to get up so early, "Ms Cooper, I thought you were gonna sleep for a little longer."

"Susan woke me up by calling. And I am a bit hungry. I feel like returning to sleep after breakfast."

"The breakfast will be ready soon." Said Max respectfully.

"Thank you."

"My pleasure." Then Max walked away.

She walked over to the table to wait. Soon, Max served her a breakfast of variety.

"Max, is he leaving?" asked Hannah while dining. But as soon as she finished, she saw Oscar show up in the lobby. Her smile soon faded away.

Commonly speaking, whenever he stayed, he would be the first person she saw every time she woke up. If she didn't see him, he would probably be leaving. So she reckoned he had left for the Capital. Of course, Oscar also noticed her smile fading away. But he still took a seat next to her composedly to dine with her.

"I will leave the day after tomorrow." Said Oscar.

Hannah nodded. Of course, he was free to go with or without noticing her. Then only silence lingered in the air. Sometimes she felt like they were strangers to each other.

Susan hurried to set out for work. Commonly speaking, she drove herself to the office and she could usually arrive on time. However, there was an accident happening ahead. Plus, it was peak hour in the morning. Soon, she got stuck in a traffic jam. Meanwhile, her phone rang.

She took a look and picked it up, "Tammy?"

"Ms Phillips, where are you? The chairman wants us to set out to WST for negotiation in ten minutes."

"I got stuck in a traffic jam. Goddamn, it! How comes he makes it ahead of the previous schedule?"

"It seems that the president of WST has something else to deal with. So they made a call to the chairman to suggest that the negotiation should begin half an hour earlier."

"Damn! They change the schedule as long as they want?"

"Come on, stop complaining. Where are you?" Tammy sounded anxious.

Susan took a look ahead and replied, "I can't make it in ten minutes."

"No way!" Manuel was going to be pissed if Susan was absent, Tammy reckoned.

"How about that? I will drive myself to WST. I think that will make it on time. But I got something to prepare in the office. So I need you to get it prepared for me."

Commonly speaking, the traffic jam would not last long.

"Okay." Tammy hurried to agree.

"Bring my laptop. There's a file of slides about the project this time. And it's been stored in a folder named WST, the D division. Check it if it's there. I made some edits before leaving at 9:00 PM yesterday. Check to see if it matches the saved time."

"Okay."

"If there's nothing wrong with the content, bring the laptop with you to negotiation. If there's any question from Manuel, just tell him I am on my way. No further ado to explain. The worst consequence is just that he might reproach me. But I am used to it."

Tammy was somehow amazed by her toughness. As she put down the phone, she turned on the laptop to check the file as Susan required. As soon as she confirmed it, someone knocked on the door and entered.

It was Clara, "Tammy, Ms Phillips hasn't arrived yet? Mr Johnson said it's time to go."

"Ms Phillips heads to WST herself. She will meet us there. I will bring the files prepared for the negotiation for her."

"Make sure you have got everything for it." Said Clara.

"Of course." Tammy nodded.

"Let me have it double-checked." Clara walked over to Susan's laptop.

Tammy didn't replace anything suspicious. Then she told Clara about what Susan just said.

"Here is the file of the final version."

"Okay. Bring the laptop. Let's go." Clara nodded.

Tammy turned it off and was about to leave with it.

"Hey, give me the laptop. Chairman and I will share the same car. I think he may wanna have a look at the file. By the way, what's the password?" said Clara.

Tammy then told her the password and handed over the laptop to her. As soon as Clara got the laptop, she couldn't help smirking. She couldn't wait to see what if Susan messed up the project this time. How would Manuel punish her?

After Clara left with the laptop, Tammy got into the car specifically for Susan. She waited for a while. When Manuel and Clara walked out of the gate to get into the limousine exclusive for the chairman, Tammy told the chauffeur to set off together.

Meanwhile, Susan was driving herself to WST.

It was an international project, which Manuel highly valued. Thus, no mistake was allowed. Luckily, the traffic jam soon got dissipated. She arrived before Manuel.

Susan took a deep breath to adjust herself. After switching herself to the best version, she was expecting Manuel at the gate.
