"Liam. Ackman!"
Even if she was made of clay, she would still feel anger pricking at her cold, clay heart.
Anna was furious, gritted her teeth, and let out a low growl.
"Don't test my patience "
Liam leaned on the chair with his hands around his chest, "Hamilton, whose name are you calling?"
Anna panted heavily, tried to plant a smile on her face, tried her best to suppress her rage, and lowered her voice.
"Mr. Ackman, it seems like you are not very satisfied with the two other reworked proposals."
Anna took another deep breath, and her voice continued to soften.
"As far as the current situation is concerned, the most satisfactory one is the first set of proposals. Of course, we have undergone rigorous screening and are going t o use the best one."
Liam raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, "I sincerely think that the two proposals you rewrote were just written to get the case done with. There are too many signs of carelessness, and they are not up to standard at all!"
Anna rubbed her chest where slight pricks of pain were felt, "Mr. Ackman, the two new sets of samples I gave you won me the first place in school, how can there be traces of carelessness..."
Liam slammed his fists against the table, "See, you actually used your schoolwork to try and fool me!"
Anna was furious and yet she still tried her best to keep her tone warm, "Mr. Ackman, I don’t have much time left! I was only trying my best under the time constraints."
"Look, you only think that the samples aren't up to par because you know I was racing against time.
If I had enough time, and I will wait a few days before submitting the papers, and if you and I are strangers, you wouldn't think this way! In fact, your subjective biases are at fault, you can’t do this to me."
Liam snorted, "You are right! If you had enough time, and I didn't know you, indeed the two samples you resubmitted can be appreciated as good works."
"But unfortunately, Anna, I know you are in a hurry. The two samples you made overnight are just to get m e off your back!"
Liam threw the USB flashback back at Anna, "Go home and redo it."
Anna was about to explode, she gritted her teeth, "Mr. Ackman, I have no time to make a new proposal for you."
"If you can't even meet your customers’ requirements? What sort of designer do you think you will become in the future?"
"But you are just making things difficult for me!"
Liam stood up, tall and imposing, creating an unreachable distance between the two of them. She could only look up at him.
"I said, you can beg me, but you won’t."
Anna clenched her fists hard, no longer gentle, and shouted, "you are right, I have to strengthen myself, only then will people stop bullying me!"
"Do you think I am bullying you?"
"Are you not?"
"I am training your integrity and work ethic!"
"Bullshit!"
Liam closed his eyes, feeling embarrassed on her behalf, "Look at that attitude and lack of selfdiscipline, how can you be an excellent designer? How can you manage the entire Lincoln Group in the future?"
“To tell you the truth! I don’t want to inherit the Lincoln Group at all! I'm just following my heart!
"And Liam, let me tell you, I would rather rewrite another proposal. You want me to beg you? Even Satan himself can't make me do it!"
Anna finished shouting, grabbed the USB flash drive, and slammed the door behind her angrily.
Liam pointed to the closed door, "Look, with this little tolerance, how can she socialize and overcome the various emergencies in the future!"
