Chapter180

    Harriet calmly and politely exined the purpose of her call.

    On the other end, Vicente’s voice grew even gentler. He said,

    “Ms. Chavez, I haven’t had a chance to use the trial product

    from Gxy Innovations yet. Once I do, if I have any questions

    or suggestions, I’ll get in touch with you. Is that alright?”

    Harriet replied, “Of course, Mr. Leach. Sorry to bother you.”

    With that, the two of them ended the call.

    But in the days that followed, Vicente never contacted Harriet-

    no questions, no suggestions.

    Harriet thought to herself that he was probably too busy with

    work and hadn’t had time to try it out yet.

    So, she didn’t bother him further.

    As for Ellsworth, he went on a business trip right after receiving

    the product. Knowing his situation, Harriet decided to leave it

    for now and didn’t reach out.

    Olivia, on the other hand, often gave Harriet feedback, saying

    Chapter180

    the robot was wonderful–not only could it chat with her, but it

    was also very thoughtful, able to monitor her health at any time

    and create the healthiest diet and exercise ns for her.

    Most importantly, there was one time when she almost fell in

    the living room, and the robot’s emergency airbag function

    saved her, so she praised Harriet and her team to the skies.

    Olivia’s satisfaction with the product gave Harriet new

    inspiration. She added a process for the robot to proactively

    operated through voice prompts, just like talking to a regr

    person.

    By the time she finished editing and saving the new program, it

    was already past ten in the evening.

    Harriet stretched, feeling the stiffness in her back and neck.

    As she packed up and drove home, her mind was still full of

    work, though she asionally thought about her new

    apartment.

    Kat had called her that afternoon to say the furniture had been

    delivered, and that she had added a few more air purifiers. After

    airing out for a few days, it would be just about ready.

    Chapter180

    Listening to the call, Harriet was deeply moved and joked that if

    Kathie were a man, she would have married her long ago.

    Kathie burst outughing and said she wouldn’t mind marrying

    Harriet even now.

    Thinking about these things as she got home, Harriet saw

    Jacquelyning out of her room.

    Seeing Harrieting home sote, Jacquelyn said with

    concern, “Mrs. Townsend, you can’t keep working overtime like

    this. Your health will suffer. You haven’t had dinner yet, have

    you? I saved some food for you. I’ll go get it.”

    Harriet smiled and said, “Alright, thank you, Jacquelyn.”

    While Harriet was eating, Jacquelyn told her that Ellsworth had.

    returned from his business trip and mentioned that he looked a

    bit thinner these days.

    Harriet just smiled and said nothing.

    After finishing her meal and going upstairs, she thought

    Ellsworth would already be resting, but as soon as she reached

    the top, Ellsworth came out of the master bedroom holding a

    cup of water.

    Chapter180

    The two ran into each other, and Harriet greeted him politely,

    “You’re back.”

    “Yeah,” Ellsworth replied coolly.

    At that moment, Harriet remembered the robot and said to him,

    “By the way, if you have any questions or suggestions about the trial product thepany gave you, you can send them to me.”

    Ellsworth replied gently, “Alright.”

    Then Ellsworth looked at her and said, “Harriet, you need to

    adjust your working hours. If you keep this up, your health will

    suffer.”

    Harriet said, “I know. I’ll make adjustments.”

    The two of them stood in the hallway, the yellow light casting a

    warm glow, with Ellsworth blocking Harriet’s way.

    A sudden silence fell between them, as if they hadn’t seen each

    other in years.

    Looking up at Ellsworth, Harriet tried to move to the left to

    leave, but Ellsworth also stepped to the left.

    As a result, they bumped into each other.

    Chapter180

    Seeing this, Harriet quickly moved to the right to make way for

    him, but Ellsworth also moved to the right.

    They bumped into each other again.

    After bumping into each other twice, Harriet felt a bit helpless.

    Finally, she suddenly looked up at Ellsworth and said, “By the

    way, I called Mr. Hurley. He said the agreement is ready and has

    already been given to you. I have time now, so I can sign it.”

    When Harriet brought up the divorce, Ellsworth’s expression

    darkened.

    Lowering his gaze to look at Harriet for a moment, Ellsworth

    said calmly, “The agreement is ready. I’m reviewing it on my

    end.”

    Then he added in the same calm tone, “Harriet, I suggest we

    both think carefully about the divorce. My opinion is that if you

    still insist on it by the end of the year, then we’ll go through with

    the procedures.”
