Upon returning to Grant Corporation from Drover's studio, I immediately went to Theo's office and briefed him on the situation.
He smiled contentedly after hearing this and raised his eyebrows lightly when he looked at me again. "I told you sending you over was the right choice.”
I still could not understand his intention behind it. As I sat down in front of him, I held my chin and shook my head. "I can’t fathom your decision. The one who knows the most about the project is Director Doyle, but instead of sending her, you asked me to go. I'm not the only one who’s confused by this. I think even Director Doyle can't understand it."
Theo stopped what he was doing and looked at me, his bright eyes seemingly seeing through everything I was thinking. He admitted and said, "I know Director Doyle is the project leader and it makes more sense for her to go, but..."
He suddenly paused as if trying to pique my interest further. I put down my hands and stared at him with a serious face." Don't keep me in suspense now. Just spit it out."
Theo's thin lips pursed into an arc, then he laughed lightly and said in a light voice," It's because of your fresh outlook and the fact that you're a novice. My plan isn't an excellent plan, and Drover has encountered all the experts in the industry. I assume he must've gotten tired of the same old plannings, so if I sent Director Doyle over at this time, they may find out more
shortcomings about this plan as they talked, but you’re different."
As if he was being coy, he continued to say, "It's because you're not adept in this and also how much you trust me that you'd definitely think this plan is perfect upon getting the documents. Hence, you're simply going to get defensive when faced with Drover's doubts. Do you get the idea now?"
After listening to Theo's remarks, I finally understood that he let me go in order to increase the passing rate of the plan. The result was in line with his prediction.
I tilted my head, still somewhat confused.' Since you know the plan isn't perfect, why’d you still want to use this one?"
My question made Theo’s smile deepen, making things seem intriguing. "Only this plan can be completed within the specified timing, so we naturally have to get it approved first before we can slowly modify it."
"That's all?" I had a feeling that this explanation was too far-fetched, so I asked again.
Theo nodded affirmatively. "Of course."
Nicky's face grew somewhat embarrassed, but she admitted it. "Mm. I just couldn't understand why you didn’t ask me to go. After all, I'm the project leader.”
"It's because you’re the person in charge so you couldn't be the person who went over." Theo's words sounded filled with meaning. He looked at me, then at Nicky.
I thought that it was not proper for me to be here. Even if Theo had asked me to stay, I should still leave at this point. I looked at them and said, "You guys have a good chat. I'll get going now."
After I was done talking, I quickly fled the
scene.
Theo should explain the matters clearly to Nicky, so it would be better if I was not there.
