Chapter 13
Alice was the most familiar with the resort project, and she had been very meticulous in drafting the contract.
For such multinational company cooperation projects, she always prepared two copies, and today she even had an third one.
She didn’t ask Aurora if she could understand it; if Aurora couldn’t, Michael could.
Not long after Michael and Aurora had left, Alice’s phone rang.
Michael’s cold voice came through, “CloudSavor Restaurant rooftop, come over immediately, the contract needs to be reprinted p>
“Okay, Mr. Johnson.” Alice hung up the phone and immediately took out the backup contract she had prepared earlier.
Winter saw her about to leave and frowned slightly. “Alice, it’s almost time to get off work, and you’re still going out p>
“I need to deliver documents to Mr. Johnson p>
“He’s making you deliver them?” Winter was even more puzzled; such a trivial task could be done by any employee.
Alice smiled and didn’t say much. Michael’s tone was not good just now, and he was obviously unhappy with the conversation.
The need to reprint the contract could only mean that the previous one was no longer usable.
Thinking of how Aurora often did things carelessly, and how Michael affectionately called her a little fool, Alice felt a bit stifled.
Just as she reached the company entrance, she received a call from Michael’s mother, Serafina Nightingale.
“Alice, are you back from the business trip? How could Michael have sent you to the mountains? You must have suffered p>
“Mrs. Johnson, I came back as soon as the project ended. The conditions there were quite fine.” Alice’s voice carried a smile.
Serafina finally breathed a sigh of relief. “Then come home with Michael tomorrow night. It’s been a long time since you both came
home p>
Alice was stunned for a moment, then agreed, “I’ll report to Mr. Johnson p>
“Report what? Does he need a report to come home?” Serafina was a bit angry. And don’t call him Mr. Johnson, it’s too formal. His grandmother and I have been discussing, and you two have been together for almost ten years, right? It’s time to get married p>
Alice’s hand, which was about to open the car door, froze, her eyes widening in disbelief.
She and Michael, getting married?

She let go of the door handle and didn’t get in the car. The Johnson family’s private matters couldn’t be known by others.
She made a few more perfunctory remarks and finally agreed to return to the Johnson family, which made Serafina hang up the phone.
All the way, she was a bit dazed. She and Michael were not even in a romantic relationship, so why did Serafina mention marriage?
When she arrived at CloudSavor Restaurant, she took a few deep breaths, put on a professional smile, and walked into the private room.
Alice keenly noticed that the atmosphere was a bit off.
Michael was holding Aurora, and the expressions of the three foreign guests were somewhat displeased.
Aurora had obviously just cried, her eyes red like a frightened rabbit.
“Sorry I’m late. Mr. Johnson asked me to bring gifts for you all, which I forgot at the company and just went back to get.” Alice greeted them fluently and handed over several gift boxes.
Seeing the contract stained with juice, she understood that this must be Aurora’s doing.
The foreign guests’ eyes lit up slightly when they saw the exquisite jewelry.
Alice added politely, “Mr. Johnson said you were very interested in our jewelry, so we had these specially customized for you, with colors chosen according to your preferences p>
One of them picked up a piece of jewelry and nodded continuously. “Ms. Baker, we really like them p>
He continued, “When we were at the resort, we discussed purchasing a batch of jewelry, but this trip is tight, and we have to leave the day after tomorrow. It’s a pity we couldn’t find a suitable partner.
