Chapter 1977 The Gathering

Chapter 1977 The GatheringKaylee cried and ran out.
Bella cast a somewhat worried glance at Elisa and asked, “Could something go wrong?”
Elisa disagreed, “What could possibly go wrong? She's an adult, and she should take responsibility for
her own actions.”
Upon hearing these words, Bella no longer dwelled on the issue.
She wasn't genuinely worried about Kaylee, but rather, she was afraid that if anything happened to her,
the responsibility would somehow fall onto Elisa's shoulders.
Since Elisa had put it that way, it did make sense. Furthermore, she didn't feel like dealing with Kaylee
anymore. Not only would it add to her mental stress, but it was also a burden.
With that, they continued discussing the progress of the project together.
It must be because of the example set by Kaylee, everyone became surprisingly enthusiastic and
serious when they carried won with the discussion.
In fact, they were even more serious than before. It was mainly because they were afraid that Elisa
would treat them with that kind of attitude...
So, they were surprisingly efficient today. Before leaving, the project director, who was the girl previously in Bella's position, didn't forget to give
Elisa a big thumbs up.
Although it was quite terrifying when one had to face such a situation, it was rather satisfying to watch.
It was a bit like those scenes in novels where the female lead broke down the facade of a phony
woman with just a few words. Those words were quite powerful.
Elisa smiled and didn't say a word.
She didn't really intend to teach Kaylee lesson.
Before she took the initiative to get involved, Elisa hadn't even considered dealing with this matter.
She was busy every day, keeping a close eye on the overall operations of the company, and steering
the wheel. Hence, she didn't have time to deal with these trivial matters.
Moreover, each department and each manager had their own responsibilities. Elisa tried her best not to
interfere within their scope of authority giving them with ample freedom.
This also made them feel more comfortable with work and managing staff.

Corporation.
As Bella was about to leave, she was stopped by Elisa. She said, “There's a party tonight. Shall we go together?”
This was Rachel's plan, and she even invited Gareth. She probably didn't invite Vincent, but he would
always find a way to do so.
Elisa also wanted to introduce Rachel and Bella to each other.
On one hand, it was out of self-interest, as both were people she trusted deeply.
On the other hand, it was due to work.
Rachel was very proficient in the legal knowledge in this business. Last time, it was thanks to her that
both Paul and Rachel were sent to prison.
So, it was a good thing that Bella could communicate with Rachel at any time.
After some thought, Bella nodded.
“Shall we head back to Wickam Manor together after the party? Grandma has been aware of this
matter and hasn't been sleeping well for several days.”
Elisa felt somewhat guilty when she thought of Julia.
It was her lack of awareness that had caused the old lady to worry again.
After much difficulty, I finally returned from the small fishing village. It seemed like good days were
ahead with the malignant tumor successfully removed. But then, I was kidnapped and almost sold... One could only imagine the fear and anxiety Julia went through.
After some thought, Elisa shook her head.
“I'll call Grandma to console her. I won't be going back tonight. It'll be too late, and I don't want to
disturb her rest.”
Bella nodded, winking at her and said, “Then you'd better hurry up and make a call. Grandma has been
really worried lately. She's afraid that you haven't come to your senses yet, and she is also afraid that
she might disturb your work, so she hasn't called.”
Elisa nodded.
After Bella left, Elisa dialed Julia's number.
