I Am the Sweetheart of Mr. CEO Chapter 836 - 834: That Girl Has Quietly Grown Up (Part 2)

"What ti is the eting?"

"One-thirty."

Vera glanced at her watch, "Then you go eat quickly, I’ll go discuss the revisions for the proposal with them."

"Vera!" Kris Cooper put a hand on her shoulder, "I hope you... don’t attend this eting."

This was a power struggle with Nathan Leafcastle, and he didn’t want her to get involved.

Vera understood he didn’t want her to face Nathan Leafcastle.

"I know him well, he’s always been ticulous. Now he surely knows I’m the one who made this proposal. If I don’t show up, he might get suspicious." Saying this, she turned to him with a smile and winked her right eye, "Co on, don’t forget, your wife’s part-ti job is an actress!"

She spoke lightly, but Kris Cooper slightly frowned.

"Are you really up to it?"

Confronting Nathan Leafcastle was sothing Kris had no choice about; he didn’t want to force her to deal with a childhood friend.

Vera raised her hand to hold his face, her eyes were resolute.

With a kiss on his face, she stood up from her chair, "Vera is in action, one can take on two, plus my son, we already outnumber the enemy. We’ll surely win! Now, let’s recharge our energy and later show them that your Planning Departnt Manager knows how to eat at!"

Previously, Kris Cooper had been facing everything alone. This ti, she couldn’t let him fight alone.

With a smile rising from the corners of his lips, Kris Cooper stood up and held her hand.

"Alright, let’s go eat at together!"

...

...

At 1:25, Kris Cooper appeared punctually in the conference room.

Nathan Leafcastle, Sally Dalton, and the staff brought from Barker Group were already seated, and footsteps were heard outside the door. Tommy Taylor walked over and opened the door, and Vera entered with her team mbers.

Everyone turned their heads simultaneously, Nathan Leafcastle and Sally Dalton imdiately stood up from their seats, and the staff from Barker knew her identity and quickly left their chairs.

If their own president had to stand up, they certainly had no right to sit down.

Vera looked up, her gaze touching Nathan Leafcastle and Sally Dalton opposite her. She smiled and walked over.

"Good afternoon everyone, I’m Vera Wave, the Planning Departnt Manager at Barker Group. This ti, the Jade River proposal will be handled by and my team."

After speaking, she slightly bowed to everyone as a greeting.

Then, she extended her hand to Nathan Leafcastle.

"Mr. Leafcastle, please take care of us."

The words "Mr. Leafcastle" changed their relationship from friends to collaborators, and it expressed her attitude—business is business.

Nathan Leafcastle extended his hand towards her.

"Vera..."

She subtly raised her eyebrows, and he had to correct his address, "Manager Wave, happy collaboration!"

"Happy collaboration!"

Vera nodded formally and imdiately withdrew her hand, then shook hands with Sally Dalton and others, maintaining a high degree of professionalism without any hint of being a president’s wife.

Kris Cooper pulled out a chair for her, and Vera led her team over, while he casually moved his chair closer to her, "Everyone, let’s sit!"

Everyone took their seats separately, and Vera lightly coughed and began the presentation of the proposal.

Sitting in her chair, she talked eloquently, her words clear and her expression highly organized, occasionally throwing in so witty remarks to keep it from feeling too dull.
