Chapter 92

Glancing at the pile of documents on the desk, I nodded. As I had previously asked her to payattention to OrbitTech, I asked, “Let me see the market report for HiTech.

The feedback for the products seems quite good. Are there any updates regarding Orbit Tech?”She replied, “Yes. OrbitTech and HiTech have released a product in the Al education category at thesame time. As their target consumer group is students, their publicity efforts are mainlyconcentrated in schools. The product is quite good, but the price and cost are quite high. Hence,only a selected group of people can afford it.”

I nodded. “Okay. Continue keeping an eye on them. If necessary, you can arrange for a meetingbetween the president of OrbitTech and myself.”

As OrbitTech was focused on technology research and development, its marketing andmanagement efforts were not exceptional. If Fuller Corporation could acquire a technologypowerhouse like OrbitTech, it could have a breakthrough for its future developments in thetechnology field.

Stacey nodded. “Understood. However, the manager of OrbitTech’s marketing department seems tobe in close contact with a technology company in A City.”

"I see.” As a technology company, it probably wanted to replace investors to expand its business. Notconcerned about it, I raised my head and looked at Stacey. “Are you dating?”

She was stunned for a while before smiling shyly. “Yeah, we're going to get married soon.” As shespoke, she subconsciously touched the wedding ring on her finger.

I smiled. “Does he work in the same industry as us? Why don’t we have a meal together?”

Looking like a woman happily in love, she chuckled and said, “He's quite busy recently, so hedoesn't have much time to spare. Why don't we wait till this busy period passes? If you don’t mind,I'd like you to be our presider.”

"You've already decided to marry?” I was a bit shocked. From my recent observations, she had onlydated for one or two months.

Blushing, she nodded and explained, “We were classmates. We've known each other for a long time,but we've only started dating recently. Our families have been urging us, so we decided to getmarried.”

I laughed and did not say anything else. After Stacey placed the documents down and left, Ireceived a call from Jared.

I picked up the call and greeted, “Hello, Dr. Crest!”

“Are you free, Scarlett?” He sounded like he wanted to talk to me about something.

Stunned momentarily, I replied, “I'm meeting Macy tonight. What's the matter?”

He fell silent for a while before saying, “It's nothing. Ashton called me to check up on your body.”

I subconsciously frowned and replied, “I'm fine. You don't have to worry.”

"Did you guys get into a fight?”

“No!”

Our disagreements could not be counted as full-fledged arguments. We simply did not see eye toeye because we were both on different wavelengths.

After a slight pause, he continued, “That's good, then. There's a box on my office's desk whichcontains some supplement pills. You can come and retrieve it whenever you're free. Remember totake it regularly.”

— “Alright. Thank you!”

“You're welcome.”

After chatting for a while, I hung up the call and glanced at the clock. The workday had alreadyended.

I was going to meet Macy at the shopping mall, so I tidied my desk and headed directly to the carpark. After what happened the previous time, I rarely parked my car in the underground car park.Instead, I parked it in the open car park on the ground floor. Underground car parks were often darkand shady. Although an open car park would expose my car to the sun, it was still safer.

After getting into the car, I reversed the car out of the parking lot. I was about to leave when Isuddenly spotted someone familiar. A slightly chubby middle-aged . man was sitting in a blackCayenne beside Joe's red sports car. Somehow, his figure looked familiar to me.

Although I didn't manage to see the face of my kidnapper clearly, I could remember his figure well. Icould not help but stop my car and scrutinize the middle-aged man sitting in the Cayenne.However, the man drove away quickly.

As I did not get a good look at the kidnapper, and there were a lot of chubby middle aged menaround, it was difficult for me to identify him amongst so many people.

After hesitating for a while, I still drove toward the shopping mall where I was supposed to meetMacy.

By the time I arrived, Macy had already been waiting for me for a long time. When she saw me, shepouted and lamented, “Scarlett, you're late for half an hour.”

Passing a cup of milk tea to her, I explained, “I'm not late on purpose. There's a traffic jam along theway. As an apology, here's a cup of milk tea I bought for you.”

She took it from my hands and replied proudly, “Since you're so sincere, I'll let you off the hook.”The shopping mall in the city center of J City was humongous. Perhaps it had been quite some timesince Macy last came out, she was extremely excited. In fact, she deliberately skipped breakfast inthe morning just to prepare herself for the sumptuous seafood buffet here.

I chuckled, recalling the times in college when we did not have a lot of money. In order to eat goodfood, we would save up for a long time before splurging on a buffet together.

Memories were the souvenirs of time.

Come to think of it, those were the happiest days of my life. Although I was poor, I did not loveanyone-life was carefree and burdenless.

After dinner, Macy dragged me into a baby shop. She walked around and picked some items whichI would need once my baby is born.
