A Second Chance at Forever ( Eleanor Shultz )
A Second Chance at Forever Chapter 464

Chapter 464

Mr. Laurence personally came to their company to sign the contract?

Pearce was surprised and confused at the same time.

Didn’t Mr. Laurence give up on Eleanor in W City already? Why would he come to see her again?

Could it be that Mr. Laurence had some special feelings for his student and wanted to get close to her through the project?

Pearce slowly lowered his head, looking at his right hand.

He felt that dislocating his hand at this time seemed a bit off, but he couldn’t figure out what was wrong.

Eleanor looked at the extinguished screen, full of doubts.

Why would Bernard let her take over such a big project?

After thinking for a while, she called Pearce again,

“Mr. Hooper, if you don’t want to do it, just say no. I have other projects to catch up on. I’ve got no time.”

Just after seeing off Mr. Wiseman, Pearce’s smile disappeared again when he heard this.

“You don’t need to do field research for other projects. Leave them all to me. Just focus on drawing the design plans.” He said.

Eleanor wanted to say something, but Pearce interrupted her with a “Already discussed with them, and that’s it“.

She took a deep breath, called Hailey, and asked her when she would be back.

Hailey said Cedric had some issue and asked her to stay with him for three days, so she couldn’t come back now.

She also warned Eleanor that if she returned to A City, she should look for Bernard first, as he had urgent matters to discuss with her.

Eleanor wanted to tell Hailey that she was already back and had seen Bernard, but Hailey hung up the phone.

She had no choice but to put down her phone, get up, and go to the study to work on the design plan for the second project.

When she put down her pen, it was already 8 a.m. the next day, and there were only preliminary sketches on the table.

She didn’t have time to polish them carefully, so she put down her pen, went to the bathroom to wash up. She rolled up the sketches, and hurriedly left home.

Her sister’s company was a two–story red building with French design, a dome, and quite unique.

When she arrived at the company, she called Pearce, who quickly came downstairs wearing slippers and walking briskly.

Seeing his tightly wrapped arm, Eleanor couldn’t help but frown, “You seem to be seriously injured, are you okay?”

Pearce forced a smile, “It’s nothing, just a dislocation. Wanna try some dislocated citrus? I can help you.”

Eleanor pretended not to hear and continued to walk into the company.

The office equipment inside the company was one–to–one, even the designers were in pairs, a total of eight.

Pearce said there used to be nine designers, but he felt uncomfortable with that, so he one, and it felt much better.

Eleanor followed him upstairs, listening to his chatter.

Pearce took her to Emilia’s office, and when he pushed the door open, he looked a bit melancholic, as if thinking about something.

Seeing the usually not–so–serious and slightly willful Pearce showing such emotions, Eleanor couldn’t help but touch her chest.

Pearce said, “Your sister’s company may not look big, but it’s quite famous in the architecture world.

After your sister passed away, this company should have been taken over by my master Ethan, but his condition is unstable now, so I took over.

Since you’re back now as Emilia, you’ll be in full charge of this company from now on.”

Hearing Pearce’s words, Eleanor came back to her senses, looked up at Pearce, who leaned against the door frame casually.

“I don’t have any experience managing a company. I might not do well.” Eleanor said.

“How would you know if you can do well without trying?”

Pearce patted Eleanor’s shoulder seriously.

“Don’t underestimate yourself too much.”

Feeling as if Pearce had seen through her thoughts, Eleanor slowly lowered her head.

“This company is your sister’s hard work. Taking over as her, helping her continue her design philosophy would also fulfill her dream.”

Pearce looked around Emilia’s office with great respect.

Emilia was the only designer he admired besides Ethan.

That famous designer with a natural talent for design since childhood, who persisted in designing even when suffering from ALS

In this chaotic world, such a spirit was rare, and he hoped Eleanor could carry it on.
