This remark, this expression, hit Theron’s most guilty spot right on the mark.
But thinking about Lizzie’s attitude, he knew he had to make things right with her.
Looks like I’ll have to talk to Lizzie slowly in the future.
Since Lizzie is back, we can let Johanna handle the translation work.
Translation work is easy and can be done at home, which is good for Johanna’s pregnancy. Once the baby is born, he will figure out other work arrangements for Johanna.
Things were resolved, Theron felt much better. He opened the lunchbox, “Let’s eat quickly.”
a
Johanna nodded, looked down to eat, and avoided Theron’s eyes.
At that moment, there was no trace of softness or grievance in her eyes.
All that’s left is cold hatred and malicious calculations!
Lizzie!
This is not over yet!
Lizzie taught those people how to operate in three days.
The first batch of qualified parts came off the production line.
Raymond’s face couldn’t hide his excitement anymore, “These machines are no longer just decorations!”
“Liz, go take a break in my office first.”
Lizzie nodded and said to Emery, “Emery, I’m going to Raymond’s office first. If you have any questions, come find
me.”
Emery nodded and continued working on the mechanical parts production with the others.
Other people were looking enviously at those who were elected in the by–election, especially the four young people.
With this imported machinery, they went from being novice workers to master craftsmen in no time!
If they were lucky, they could reach that level too!
Lizzie went to the factory manager’s office with Raymond.
The factory manager’s office was simple, with an old desk and a few rusty metal filing cabinets.

There was a faint smell of tobacco in the air, and Lizzie suddenly caught a whiff of it, which made her cough several
times.
Raymond went over and opened the window to let in some fresh air, then he poured her a glass of water himself.
The water vapor was hazy, blurring the red star printed on the enamel basin.
“Liz, thank you so much! You’re a real lifesaver for our factory!”
Lizzie modestly waved her hand, “Raymond, you’re too kind. Being able to save the collective property is more im- portant than anything.”
Raymond didn’t hesitate to praise, “Liz’s awareness is top–notch!”
Suddenly, he sat down behind the desk, leaning forward slightly, and looked at Lizzie.
“Lizzie, you were a really talented person.”

He said seriously, “I know you’re having some trouble right now, I’ve heard some rumors about Equinox Research Laboratory.”
Lizzie held the cup of water, feeling the warmth on her fingertips. She didn’t say anything, just listened quietly.
He sincerely invited, “Our factory is in need of people right now, especially talents like you. I would like to formally invite you to work in our factory, arrange a technical position for you, and enjoy the highest engineer treatment in our factory.”
Raymond’s offer was really tempting. Even though he knew she had some “blemishes,” he still gave her the job. She appreciated that.
Raymond thought she was hesitating when he saw her silent.
“Lizzie, don’t worry. As long as you’re willing to come, I’ll figure things out. I believe you’re innocent and talented, you couldn’t have plagiarized. It’s just the current situation isn’t in your favor. Consider this job as your safe haven.”
“Thank you, Raymond.”
Lizzie knew that Raymond cared about her and believed in her, otherwise he wouldn’t have said that.
“I don’t need it for now, my goal is not here.” Her goal has never been just to find a job.
What she wanted was to clear her name and get back to her beloved research career.
“Ah, I know.” Raymond knew it wouldn’t work out, but getting rejected still stung a bit.
“Originally, I just wanted to solve this problem for our factory, no ulterior motives. But today, Raymond, you men- tioned it, I also have a reluctant request.”
Raymond knew Lizzie was just trying to help sincerely, so he felt embarrassed and wanted to protect her even more by taking risks.
I was actually happy when she asked me for help.

He was afraid that if Lizzie didn’t speak up, he wouldn’t dare to ask for her help in the future.
So, he immediately said, “Hey! Why be so formal! If you have any requests, just let me know. I’ll make sure to get it done properly!”
“Since you intended to offer me a job, I’d like to give this opportunity to my cousin Katherine, who is Emery’s daugh- ter.”
Lizzie looked at Raymond sincerely and said, “Raymond, don’t worry. In the future, if there are any technical prob- lems in the factory that I can help with, I won’t refuse.”
This is not just a polite remark, it’s a heartfelt promise.
