Craving 155

Chapter155 

Reginald replied to Alvin with a smile, “Yes, Sir Leach, this is Harriet. The company just acquired her patent not long ago-a patent she got in high school. She’s a rare talent.” 

Hearing this, Alvin quickly handed his cane to Reginald and shook hands with Harriet kindly, saying, “The future of our 

country depends on young people like you and Reginald.” 

Then Alvin added, “Harriet, I’ve seen your patent technology-it’s 

very ingenious. I thought it was a boy at first, but to find out it’s 

a young lady makes me even more impressed.” 

Lightly shaking Alvin’s hand, Harriet smiled calmly and said, “Sir 

Leach, you’re too kind.” 

Alvin: “Work hard with Reginald, and strive to achieve real 

results, to help advance the nation’s automation and 

information technology.” 

Such a big statement made Harriet quickly reply, “Sir Leach, I 

will definitely work hard and learn from Mr. Barton.” 

“Good, good, that’s what I like to hear. I like young people with 

drive.” 

With that, the three of them chatted in the living room for a 

while, then Alvin led the two young people to the study on the 

first floor. 

At this point, Reginald took out the design drawings to discuss 

with Alvin, while Harriet listened quietly by the side. 

The two of them talked straight through until after four in the 

afternoon. Based on their discussion, Reginald had almost 

finished drawing the new design. 

After sitting for seven or eight hours, Harriet had been quietly 

making tea and pouring water for the two of them, listening 

attentively without interrupting at all. 

When the two of them got up to leave, Alvin invited them to stay 

for dinner, but Reginald said he needed to get back to finish the 

new drawings, so he took Harriet and left first. 

In the black Audi A8L, Reginald gripped the steering wheel with 

both hands, while Harriet sat in the passenger seat. 

As the car drove out, they saw another identical car 

approaching. Reginald slowly rolled down the window. 

Both cars slowed down. The rear window of the black Audi A8L 

opposite them was also slowly rolled down. 

When that striking, righteous, and stunningly handsome face appeared, Harriet was momentarily stunned. 

If Ellsworth’s face was sculpted by the gods and Reginald’s was 

like a jade gentleman, then at this moment, the man opposite 

them was definitely above both. 

And… he had an irresistibly powerful aura. 

His presence was completely different from Ellsworth’s or 

Reginald’s. 

Dressed in a black suit, he looked at Reginald with a calm 

expression and nodded. Harriet kept her eyes on him. 

A warm breeze blew gently, but neither Harriet nor Reginald felt 

hot, because the aura of the man opposite seemed to suppress 

even the heat. 

After nodding to Reginald, the man’s gaze casually fell on 

Harriet. 

His expression was calm, his eyes gentle, like a passing breeze. 

It was as if Harriet was under a spell-she couldn’t help but keep looking at him. 

His aura was so strong that whoever he looked at couldn’t help 

but focus on him. 

It was as if everyone was waiting for his next command. 

It wasn’t until the two cars passed each other and the windows slowly rolled up again, and his gaze disappeared from her sight, that Harriet snapped back to reality and quickly looked away. 

As the car picked up speed, Reginald introduced, “Sir Leach’s 

grandson, Vicente Leach, just transferred back to Amberville 

last year. He’s not even thirty yet, but has a brilliant future 

ahead.” 

“Oh!” Harriet responded softly. 

So that was Vicente Leach. No wonder his aura was so strong. 

It seemed the Leach family’s genes were just as good as the Townsend family’s. No wonder Kat said that among all the 

prominent families, the only one she respected was the Leach 

family. 

As the car left the estate, Reginald started talking to Harriet 

about work again, and Harriet listened attentively., 

As they neared the company, Reginald took a call mentioning the hospital. After he hung up, Harriet asked, “By the way, Mr. Barton, has Grace had her surgery yet?” 

Reginald: “She had it last week. Now she’s in recovery, 

complaining every day about being bored and having no one to play with her.” 

Harriet smiled and said, “If I have time, can I go visit Grace?” 

Reginald: “Of course you can. She’ll be even happier if you visit.” 

With that, the two of them parked in the open lot in front of the office building, got out, and returned to the company. Reginald continued working on the new design, while Harriet got busy 

with her own work. 

By a little after seven in the evening, Harriet finished her work 

first. She said goodbye to Reginald and left for home. 

Both her meals had been rushed, and now she was really 

hungry.
