“The guidance and early warning systems that Galaxy
Innovations has participated in have been very successful. The
wireless power project we discussed this morning is just one
development direction; future applications will definitely focus
on automation technology.”
With Reginald’s introduction, Ellsworth became more and more
interested in Galaxy Innovations.
At this point, Reginald smiled and said, “But I didn’t expect Mr.
Townsend to be so knowledgeable about automation
technology.”
In the group, Harriet was walking at the back.
Hearing Reginald’s words, Ellsworth turned to look at Harriet,
then pulled her over and said with a smile, “It’s my wife’s field,
so I know a little here and there.”
From the time they left for Galaxy Innovations that morning
until now, Ellsworth had only asked Harriet once if she’d eaten,
and otherwise hadn’t looked at her at all.
Chapter102
It was as if… he didn’t even know Harriet.
So now, when he suddenly took her hand and pulled her to his
side-
Harriet was a little surprised and looked up at him.
Ellsworth held her hand as if nothing was out of the ordinary,
but his gaze returned to Reginald as he continued their
conversation.
So Harriet said nothing and didn’t pull her hand away.
She quietly stayed by his side.
After all, everyone around them was familiar. If she made a
fuss, it would just seem petty.
Beside the two of them, Kelsey’s calm and poised expression
could no longer be maintained.
She had been by Ellsworth’s side all day, and even the
employees at Galaxy Innovations thought she and Ellsworth
were a real couple,
But Ellsworth had just acknowledged Harriet in front of
everyone, holding her hand and never letting go.
Chapter102
Kelsey’s mood hit rock bottom.
She stared at Ellsworth for a long time, but he didn’t notice her
disappointment, too engrossed in his conversation with
Reginald.
He was still holding Harriet’s hand.
But this little bit of disappointment was nothing compared to
the three years of endurance Harriet had gone through.
In response to Ellsworth, Reginald laughed and said, “It seems
Mr. Townsend cares a lot about Harriet. But seriously, Galaxy
Innovations is truly grateful to Mr. Townsend for giving Harriet
back to us, and to Amberville University.”
“Harriet is highly professional. Not long after joining, she helped
Jonas and the team calculate key data, which greatly advanced
the home robotics project. I hope to see Harriet make even
greater progress in the future and really shine.”
Ellsworth laughed and said, “It was a painful sacrifice.”
Reginald laughed as well, then said, “Since Mr. Townsend has
given us such talent, we must treat him to a drink.”
Ellsworth replied, “Sure, Mr. Barton can set the time.”

Chatting as they walked, Reginald led everyone on a tour of the
administrative area, then took them to the lab.
Before entering, everyone underwent strict checks and had to
store their phones.
Even though Reginald was the boss and Harriet and Grayson
were employees of Galaxy Innovations, all procedures were
followed, and everyone was checked before entering.
It wasn’t until five thirty that the tour ended.
After seven, when everyone returned to the city center,
Ellsworth arranged a dinner banquet.
Ellsworth’s and Kelsey’s employees sat on the left, while Galaxy
Innovations’ people sat on the right.
Kelsey sat beside Ellsworth, pouring him tea and serving him.
food, finally regaining her sense of balance.
Because she was back in the hostess position.
Sitting next to Grayson, with an empty seat on her right, Harriet
quietly ate her meal while everyone else chatted and laughed.
Kelsey skillfully navigated the social scene, tending to Ellsworth
Chapter102
in every way, but Harriet remained indifferent.
She had seen far worse than this; this was child’s play.
After nine, the dinner ended.
At the restaurant entrance, as Reginald and Ellsworth shook hands to say goodbye, Kelsey stood by Ellsworth’s side in the
role of hostess, while Harriet stood behind Reginald with
Grayson, waiting for Reginald.
When the two bosses finished their farewells and turned to
leave, Harriet turned to go with Reginald as well.
At that moment, Ellsworth suddenly placed his hand on
Harriet’s neck, pulling her over and saying lazily, “Where do you
think you’re going? Not coming home?”
Harriet turned around and saw Kelsey taking two steps forward,
coming over to grab her hand. “Hara, it’s already past nine. You probably won’t be going back to the office to work overtime, right? Why don’t you ride back with me and Ells? That way you
won’t have to make an extra trip later.”
Just as Harriet was about to find an excuse to refuse, Reginald, hearing Kelsey’s words, looked at Kelsey in confusion for al moment, then turned to Harriet and said, “Harriet, there’s
Chapter102
nothing left at the office. You should go back with Mr.
Townsend.”
Her and Ellsworth’s car?
