Her Heart Her Terms (Lily and Xavier) novel Chapter 338

Chapter 338 

“Mr. Fulton, this is Nadia. She’s a designer from Lupier headquarters. She worked with Ms. Joyner on the Glenview Villa project,” Timothy explained in a lowered voice 

Nadia was slightly embarrassed with her outstretched hand frozen in the air, yet it seemed inappropriate to withdraw it 

“Mr. Fulton, I suppose it’s easy for someone of your stature to forget things. Moving forward, I’ll Eaise with you directly regarding the design of Glenview Villa. That way, you 

“Lily, what are you doing? Landon couldn’t contain his anger and turned to scold Lily in a hushed voice. “Why did you bring her here? Are you trying to lose our performance 

Their store would lose a significant portion of the revenue if Nadia took over this project even though she was also from Lapier 

Lily was calm and composed. She said in a low voice, “I ran into Ms. Cooper during today’s measurements. 

“We’re all from Lupier. It’s our priority to secure the project first. She’s agreed to credit some of the performance bonus to our store.” 

She knew that it would be difficult for her to report to Landon il she invited Nadia over, so she had discussed it with Nadia in advance. 

“You” Landon was fuming. However, he couldn’t Lash out farther with Xavier’s presence. After all, Xavier hadn’t said a word yet. The room fell into silence for a moment. Everyone’s gaze shifted to Xavier. His expression was unreadable. 

It was impossible to discem how he felt now, but his prolonged silence toward Nadia’s words made it clear that he disapproved of her. 

It would only make Lupler appear internally divided if Landon tried to get the project at this point. Therefore, he decided to mediate the situation. 

“Mr. Fulton, Lily is still relatively new to this job and lacks experience. Nadia is our company’s top designer. They’ll work together for this collaboration to ensure you get the most satisfying design““. 

Xander hadn’t uttered a word since he entered the room, yet he controlled the atmosphere entirely. His stern face and the intense atmosphere made the people around him feel suffocated 

Lilycould feel the oppressive tension even without looking directly at him. She almost wished he would lose his temper and reject the project outright. The unbearable tension was pure forment 

“Lupier has considered this thoroughly. Ms. Cooper, please have a seat.” Xavier suddenly spoke and surprisingly compromised.. 

Landon and Nadia were both delighted except for Nadia Nadia promptly sat next to Xavier. That position signaled she would be taking the lead on this design. 

She became even more 

more delighted when Xavier didn’t object and seized the opportunity to ask him about his preferences and requirements for the renovation. Lily remained silent the entire time, calmly eating and drinking without getting involved in the conversation. 

She ignored Landon’s signals to flatter Xavier, fully embracing her role as a mere bystander. 

Xavier set down his cutlery with a soft clink and reached for a napkins to wipe his mouth. “Mr. Ashford, did you forget something?” 

His words made Landon’s heart skip a beat. His mind raced as he tried to recall something. Nadia glanced at Landon puzzledly. 

Landon thought for a long time but couldn’t recall anything. He turned to Timothy for help with his pleading eyes. “Mr. Synder, L” “Ms. Joyner was late earlier. Mr. Ashford, don’t you think she should be penalized with a drink? Timothy reminded him. 

“Right!” Landon immediately picked up the wine bottle and poured a full glass for Lily. 

The wine glass beside her was already filled before Lily could react
