Gilbert seemed a bit excited and immediately tried to video call me.
Startled, I quickly ended the call, causing some noise that made my nearby colleague look at me in confusion.
"Sorry," I quickly apologized.
Just as I was wondering how to respond to Gilbert, a woman walked up to me holding some documents.
"Hi, I'm the Director of the Design Department. These are the recent property addresses and floor plans from our collaboration. Please familiarize yourself with them. Also, here's an assessment for new designers, which will last for a week." She placed the files on my desk and walked away in her Valentino heels, leaving me with a pile of work. Suddenly, an idea struck me, and I took a photo of the documents and sent it to Gilbert: [I'm working. Let's chat later. We'll meet when we both have time!]
After sending the message, I breathed a sigh of relief and began reviewing the documents.
Knowing that I was now working in his city, Gilbert became even more eager, bombarding me with messages.
Soon, my chat window was flooded with over a hundred notifications.
When I still didn't respond, he sent me a money transfer of Fifty thousand dollars.
