Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1199

"How did the bidding meeting go today?" Tracy asked with her usual coolness.

Emily explained, "Mr. James was originally going to have you attend this morning, but you had an important client to meet, so he made a last-minute decision for me to tag along."

"No problem!" Tracy said, "We both worked on this bid; you know the content like the back of your hand, so it doesn't really matter who went!"

"Okay, I'll send you the latest updates on the project later," Emily said gently.

"No rush; I pulled an all-nighter and didn't get much shut-eye. Go make me a cup of coffee," Tracy ordered, typing away at her computer, not even looking up.

"Sure!" Emily responded promptly, turning to make her coffee.

When she came back with the coffee, Tracy handed her a stack of papers and said, "Make copies of these; I've written down how many I need. Chop-chop."

"Okay!" Emily responded.

"Emily, take these documents to the business department!"

"Emily, this is the data the tech department needs; Mr. James signed off on it this morning. Get a move on!"

Emily was kept busy with tasks for Tracy, and before she knew it, an hour had flown by.

When Charlie came asking for the financial report of the bidding company, Emily had made no progress.

Tracy stood up, furrowing her brows at Emily. "If you can't handle it, you could at least let me know! Why keep silent? This is holding up Mr. James' work! You know how particular he is about efficiency, right? You still have a ways to go to keep up with his pace."

Emily didn't explain; she just said quietly, "Yes."

Tracy turned to Charlie, smiling, and said, "Let me handle the financial report; I'll have it sent to you within an hour!"

Charlie glanced at Emily's downcast eyes and checked his watch. "I have to step out; I'll be back in an hour."
