Chapter 862 Copying the Design Blueprint
"Well done!" The bystanders cheered.
"Nicely done!"
"That was satisfying!"
Everyone admired her for standing up and doing what they were all too afraid to do.
"What a temper," Ruben couldn't help but smile.
She looked so thin, yet she had such strength when hitting someone.
But, well done.
Turns out she was still such a righteous person.
This quality is rare nowadays.
Not only that, after hitting the scumbag, she took the injured wife to the hospital for a check-up. It showed she was a very caring girl.
These past few days, Ruben had also carefully thought about what she had said before and investigated the Cooper family's influence, which was quite substantial.
So she wasn't a gold digger; at most, she just wanted to marry well, which was understandable.
Moreover, Juniper's own resume was very impressive. She majored in finance at a prestigious university, joined a music club while in school, spoke four languages, and had even worked as a model.
She was outstanding in every aspect.
Even with his extremely critical eye, she met his requirements for a future daughter-in-law.
However, his previous impression of her was too poor, so he needed to get to know her better.
Rushing to meet a client, Juniper left the woman at the hospital and went on her way.
Afterward, Juniper called the woman, who was grateful and asked for her bank account number to transfer the registration fee.
"The registration fee isn't expensive, no need to pay it back. But if you need a divorce, you can find me. I can recommend a lawyer who will fight for your best interests."
After hanging up, Juniper turned around to see Kieran smiling at her.
"What's up?"
"Nothing, just discovering new virtues in you. You're not only excellent but also righteous and caring."
Juniper teased, "What do you mean? Are you saying I didn't look caring before?"
"Of course not, but I didn't expect you to be so good at hitting people. I wouldn't dare to offend you, lest I get beaten up."
"That's right, I never go easy on scumbags. But you're not a scumbag, so don't worry, you're safe." She smiled reassuringly.
"I'm definitely not a scumbag, but what if I make you unhappy..." Kieran was still a bit scared.
Juniper patted his shoulder, "Then just don't make me unhappy, okay?"
It sounded reasonable, but who knows? Women are not to be trifled with, especially such a fierce and domineering woman.
"Back to the main topic, you've learned almost everything now, and you understand the company's situation well enough. It's time for you to take on your first project."
"Are you saying I should work independently?" Juniper smiled.
"Pretty much. You learn quickly, even faster than I expected. There's a small project bid for Quantum Dynamics Corporation in three days. I'll have the design department liaise with you directly. It's almost complete; the important thing is to protect the design plans. Don't let them leak; it's a top company secret."
"Got it."
That night, Juniper was working on her laptop, with design plans spread out on the table.
"Still not asleep at ten?" Aaron came in with some soup.
"Dad, I'm almost done."
"Have some soup before you sleep."
"Thanks, Dad." Juniper didn't really like soup, but for the baby's nutrition, she obediently took a big sip. "It's good."
"Been busy lately? I heard from Kieran that you're learning fast and already taking on projects independently."
"Yeah, I'm swamped with these design plans and data. I'm good with data, but it's my first time dealing with design plans, and there are many things I don't understand."
"Take your time."
"The bid is tomorrow, how can I take my time?"
"Is he putting too much pressure on you? If so..."
"Pressure creates motivation, and motivation leads to progress. It's actually fine, as long as I manage my time well."
"Your mom would be very proud to see you working so hard. You're a lot like her in this regard, both very strong-willed."
"Modern women have to be strong, right? Don't worry about me, I'm still young, and this workload is nothing. Besides, it's not that difficult; the main thing is to keep the design plans from leaking, or it will be troublesome."
"Okay, I believe in you."
Saffron happened to overhear their conversation.
Design plans.
Saffron caught this key point.
After Aaron left and Juniper went to take a shower, Saffron seized the opportunity, sneaked into Juniper's room with a USB drive, and copied the entire folder containing the design plans onto her USB drive.
After finishing everything, Saffron quietly exited Juniper's room.
"Saffron, why did you go to Juniper's room again? You weren't looking for another fight, were you?" Elara asked worriedly.
"No, it's something more important." Saffron smiled deeply.
Elara had a bad feeling, "What are you up to now? Your dad just let you out, so behave yourself and stop causing trouble, or you'll end up in trouble again."
"Why are you so timid?" Saffron snapped at Elara, "If you can't help me, at least don't buzz around me like a fly."
"I'm just worried you'll do something wrong and get yourself into trouble again."
"I'm not that stupid. I won't get myself into trouble this time. The one in trouble will be Juniper."
"Juniper? What's going on?"
"Don't ask so many questions."
"No, you can't act on your own. You have to discuss it with me. Tell me, what's going on?"
Saffron had no choice but to quietly tell Elara about the design plans.
"Will this work? What if Juniper finds out it was you..."
"She won't. I sneaked in while she was showering. She won't know it was me."
"But she'll investigate."
"She won't find out. Without evidence, how can she prove it was me? Besides, there are other people on the team. It could be said that another designer leaked it. She won't suspect me. She ruined my plans before, so now I'm ruining hers. She deserves it."
"Well, okay." Elara felt uneasy, hoping nothing would go wrong.
The next morning, as Juniper was leaving, Aaron cheered her on.
"Good luck, I believe in you. Looking forward to good news."
"There will definitely be good news." Juniper said confidently.
"Don't speak too soon. If you fail, it will be embarrassing," Saffron mocked.
"Don't say such discouraging things in the morning. If you can't say anything nice, just keep quiet," Aaron immediately scolded Saffron.
"I was just trying to keep Dad's expectations in check to avoid disappointment. There's nothing wrong with that."
"Saffron, stop it," Elara signaled Saffron with her eyes.
Saffron pursed her lips, a glint of malice in her eyes. 'Juniper, you won't get the project today.'
