Chapter 41
"Go through these documents. They are about the project of a children's park we are currently working on. It's your first project here!"
Loraine felt sick at the sight of Barry's smile. However, she kept her cool.
Jolie overheard what Barry said. She took one look at the documents and couldn't help weighing in.
"Mr. Gray, Loraine is still a newbie. Why did you hand over such a tasking project to her? Don't you think it's too much?"
Loraine stood up and asked, "Jolie, what's wrong? Is there something odd about this project that I should know of?"
"The proposed design for the children's park is complicated. It will also take a long time to complete. Besides, the project was given to
Eliza's team more than a month ago." Glaring at Barry, Jolie added,
"Why are you making Loraine work on it alone?"
Barry's smile froze. He was taken aback by Jolie's defensive outburst.
What happened last night had been so embarrassing. He was extremely mad when he got home.
Although he wanted to get rid of Loraine with just the snap of his fingers, he couldn't act irrationally because Cayson personally hired her. Besides, she was Marco's ex-wife and he seemed to care for her. This was why he came up with a plan to slowly sabotage Loraine on the job.
Despite Jolie's antagonism, Barry still didn't want to let this slide.
He retorted shamelessly, "You know nothing, Jolie! Executing the project is not that hard. I gave it to Loraine so she can brush up her skills early enough."
"But..."
Jolie was about to get short with Barry, but Loraine stopped her.
"Forget it," said Loraine, looking at Barry calmly. "I'LL take over this project."
"Loraine!" Jolie exclaimed.
Barry's lips curled up in a sinister smile.
"That's what I'm talking about! Young people nowadays are so decisive. Don't let me down, Loraine."
Loraine could make out the sarcasm in his words. However, she ignored him and got right to work.
The amusement park project was indeed a difficult one. For such designs, many things needed to be considered-overall concept, division functions, specification standards, equipment and materials, tourists' psychology, and economic benefits.
