At ten o'clock, Lilia arrived at Lilia Studio.
As she stepped out of the elevator, she subconsciously turned her head and peeked at Ludwig Technology.
The door to the office opened, and there were noises inside, accompanied by the sound of electric drills from time to time.
Lilia wanted to see her friend, but Harold had greeted her at the studio's door first.
She closed her thoughts and turned her head to look at Harold. "Fifteen people have been recruited?"
.
At this time, the little girl sitting in the corridor was a young one, and her round eyes were filled with curiosity.
Harold was standing right at the door of the room. "Well, according to Joe's plan, fifteen people is enough for now. He wants you to have a look, and think of it as basic assessment criteria."
Hearing this, Lilia sneered. "Why did he suddenly lose confidence? Didn't I already say that this studio was left to him in daily operations and the rest? I will not dispute his decision."
"Then you can say that to him yourself. I feel that he has no confidence in his heart right now. Maybe he doesn't really believe in his own choices!"
Harold then took Lilia inside the office.
In the large office area, the employees sat in front of their desks and carried out their duties. The room that was once empty had become full and alive now.
Decorative plants and furniture had been arranged, and it could be seen that they were very careful in setting the layout.
Harold walked into Joe's office and heard him on the phone smiling before he even entered the door. "Oh, this gentleman is too flattering to me. I hope you will look after me and my company in the future."
Lilia and Harold faced each other, smiling faintly.
At this time, Joe saw Lilia through the glass door, and hurriedly said a few words into the phone, then got up and hung up.
"Lilia, you are here!"
Seeing her friendly expression, Joe rubbed his hands and sighed at Lilia.
Harold closed the door behind him and closed all the curtains, then the two of them sat down on the sofa.
Lilia took off her mask, sighed, and looked at Joe with a smile. "What's the matter? I heard Harold say that you have no confidence in your heart now?"
Joe scratched his head sourly. "Ugh, I just want you as the owner to see the progress of recruitment. After all, this is your company and the selection of employees is a crucial step. Maybe you can give some advice!"
"No, I believe in your vision!"
For Joe, Lilia provides absolute support and trust.
Hearing this, the anxiety on his face eased up a little. "Since you say that, I'll try it then!"
After that, Joe poured two glasses of water and placed it in front of them again. Then he mysteriously said, "Albert called me yesterday."
Lilia sipped the water glass with a smile in her eyes. "What did he say?"
Harold casually narrowed his eyes. He looked up, waiting for Joe's response.
He turned around and sat down with a smile. "He asked me about my relationship with Gaia, he may have found out that the artist we recruited has signed a contract with Gaia. Then he asked me how I could betray him in a harsh voice. I just answered with a big fat 'fuck you!'"
Harold sneered "Betray him? He should be ashamed to say it to you!"
Joe shrugged, then pursed his lips in disdain. "Lilia, in order to successfully recruit Aphrodite artists, at this stage, I don't immediately sign a contract with them on behalf of Lilia Studio. Their main contract belongs to Gaia, but for Lilia Studio, I signed an additional agreement with them."
Lilia nodded her head without hesitation. "Of course, you and Harold can decide on these things!"
She didn't stay in the room very long. Within half an hour, she and Harold were out of the office.
At this time, the door across from Ludwig Technology was closed.
It seems that the preparation isn't over yet. She is considering whether to text Vivi, but a message arrives on her cell phone.
And it's from Dina.
The contents are very short. Lilia was asked to wait upstairs for a bit. There is a problem with the car and it needs to be repaired so that it can run again.
Seeing this, Lilia remembered the scene where her car suddenly stopped in the middle of the way. To make sure everything was okay, she called Dina.
It took half a minute for the call to connect.
"Madam…"
Lilia stood in the elevator and asked calmly, "What's with that car?"
Dina was silent for a few seconds before telling the truth. "There is a problem with the brake pads. We noticed it too late and… We hit the fence in the parking lot."
Hearing this, Lilia's heart sank. "How about the two of you? Are you alright?"
Dina sighed lightly. "I'm fine, Rini had a small wound on her forehead. I will take her to the hospital to treat her wound. Madame, Captain Clifford is on his way, he will be here soon. Could you please wait a moment?"
"Where are you?"
"I've just discussed compensation now. I'm still waiting for the tow truck to come."
With the brakes in trouble, the car was out of service for a while.
There was a problem with the brake pads, and if it weren't for Rini's warning, the car might have plunged through the wrong direction, and the result would have been catastrophic.
It happened only three minutes after Lilia got out of the car.
This kind of thing… This could've happened to her!
The car's performance used to be very good, but this time the accident made them doubt the repair shop and thought that they were responsible for such dangerous maintenance.
Lilia whispered into the phone. "I will go down now, wait for me a minute. I'm in the elevator."
Harold saw her cold face and asked, "What's wrong?"
"There is a problem with the car's brake. Dina just crashed into the parking lot downstairs."
Harold's expression drastically changed. "Was your car provided by the company or Jean?"
" Jean prepared it for me. When I first entered and was still in Aphrodite, I always used it!"
The two of them walked to the elevator slowly, and a cold light appeared in the corner of Harold's eyes. "As long as the brake pads are not stepped on carelessly, at most they will only decrease in time, I almost never heard of a situation where the brake pads are in trouble."
Lilia looked away, not smiling. "I know!"
The car was taken care of on a regular basis, and it had only been used for half a year. An accident like this shouldn't happen!
Dina for sure just wanted to hide this problem, but Lilia knew that if the brake pads were not damaged, it was unlikely she crashed the car.
This question is great!
As for whether it was an accident or something else… She wisely delayed her conclusion.
Another possibility is that Lilia does not continue to think about it.
At this time, she must check on Dina and Rini first.
In the parking lot downstairs, as soon as she exited the lobby, she saw a lot of people gathered there.
Most of them wore suits with badges, and looked like property staff.
The car is seen hitting a large fence, and there are obvious scratches on its body.
Lilia walked over and just when she wanted to walk, Harold grabbed her. "Don't go there, there are too many people. I'll go."
She wanted to refuse, but her eyes saw a car coming swiftly from the curb.
The car stopped, the back door opened, and Jean walked out with a cold face.
