I waved my hand dismissively. "No more than a hundred thousand for the renovations. The company will cover it, but I really can't afford any more than that." I couldn't pretend to be swealthy mogul now that I was starting my own business; I had to be careful with expenses.
Lydia quickly shook her head. "No need for that. Fifty grand is plenty." "Glenn can do the carpentry work, but that means our office setup might be delayed a few days. What do you think?" I stared at Glenn in disbelief, then turned to Lydia, who was blushing a bit.
Glenn scratched his head. "I did scarpentry for Lydia's family. My dad's a carpenter." "Oh!" Crystal and I chimed in with knowing smirks, and the rest of the group started to cheer.
Seeing everyone so energized madefeelfeel a few years younger.
Just then, I got a call from Emma. The internal investigation would start on Saturday, and everyone in the design department had to go back.

Letsend you the forms to take a look at." 1 knew this had to be a confidential internal investigation, specifically targeting one department. As the lead designer, I naturally had to go back. If the stuteam hadn't already left and if Harmon Group wasn't trying to keep things low-key, they probably would've called everyone back After saying goodbye to my colleagues, Zack droveback to Harmon Group. It had only been a few hours since 1 left, but I suddenly felt a bit disoriented, as it something had changed.
When I walked into the conference room, everyone looked atin surprise.
Leonard immediately stood up. "You're back so soon? I was just about to go pick you up." I ignored him and sat down next to Emma "What do you needto fill out? forms.
Amiddle-aged man sitting next to Amelia stood up and handeda few form
"Eve, just fill this out honestly," he said. "We can't recover the surveillance footage swe need the people involved to provide their accounts. If necessary, your team will also need to undergo our investigation."
"That's not necessary," I replied, picking up a pen to start filling out the forms. "I was present during thei tat the company, and so were En Harmon Group's personnel. I'll handle my own team's investigation; you don't need to bother with ours." more and sat back downL
Even though we were just a small studio, we weren't to be pushed around. The man frowned slightly but said nothing Amelia suddenly scoffed. "You're acting tough, but you've already been kicked out. They want you back for questioning because you're a suspect. Do you still think you're Mrs. Harmon? Emma and I exchanged looks, frowning at Amelia. She really was clueless. At this moment, she should be focusing on her pregnancy instead of acting like a clown "Amelia, I'm going to the county clerk's office with Leonard next Monday. If you keep pushing me, I won't go. If you're so confident, have Leonard sue for divorce."
