Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 1246 Skipping Class

Raeleigh stood out among the group of workers and heard them say how good she looked. Lamarre also said, "The most beautiful one here is my apprentice. She is as beautiful as a flower in spring." At first, hearing that, Raeleigh blushed, realizing her mentor was quite flirty despite his old age. But thinking about it again, it didn't sound as frivolous as she thought.

Raeleigh knew that Lamarre liked to joke around, but she couldn't help but to feel a little bit teased. She stood aside and laughed with her red face.

"Don't just smile. You look like a fool. Don't be silly. Come over here..."

Lamarre was curious about this apprentice of his. Everyone knew that he would take care of her wherever he went, as though she were his own child. If anyone bullied her, then he would certainly make them realize their mistake.

They walked towards a display that showed the car's layout. When he got to the front, Lamarre pointed at it and said, "Take a look at this and remember it well."

He raised his hand and pointed to the people beside him. "Come over here and teach her what it is we do here."

A mechanic walked over happily, and the people around him laughed. Her mentor introduced her as his apprentice but he then proceeded to get someone else to teach her things. What was he trying to do? "If you want to learn from others, you should look out for them. Not devalue their worth."

"We usually use imported raw materials and remodel them..."

The mechanic explained it very clearly. Raeleigh stood beside him and listened intently. There weren't any women in the group. These were members of the mechanical and car assembly departments. There was also a supervisor from the design department, who oversaw the car's body and electrical features.

Lamarre was a senior member of the Harvey Group. He could mobilize people, establish groups, set up his own projects, and prepare reports. Other members did not have this privilege.

That time, he took Raeleigh to set up a team. The people selected were the best of the best. Lamarre had his own plan to groom Raeleigh into becoming a director. Otherwise, as a designer, no matter how famous she was, she would not have any real power. The people below may not have realized this yet, did they?

"Do you understand, Miss Anson?" The man from the machinery department asked her this. Seeing that Raeleigh wasn't quite focused on the topic, she shook her head and said, "Not quite."

"That's alright. I'll explain it again."

"That'll be too much of a hassle."

As they were talking, Jepherson walked in from the outside. In the crowd, there were still people observing her. Some had said that Raeleigh had a different temperament with every dress she wore. Raeleigh thought she didn't mind this at all. But Mr. Harvey had heard of this from Belle and Carmella, and was quite displeased about it.

"Is work more important, or are clothes more important?" Jepherson arrived unannounced. The whole group instantly went silent. Raeleigh turned around. She saw Jepherson standing like a crane amongst a flock of chickens. He was tall and had stood upright. Dressed in a black tight-fitting suit, his face was as cold as ice. Behind him was Stuart, who was also dressed in the same black attire.

Stuart took a look at Raeleigh and frowned. She looked very beautiful that day and was surrounded by such a group of people. It was no wonder he was angry.

Men always liked to look at beautiful women. This was an instinctive habit.

But Raeleigh was his lover. This bunch of people did not know what had happened the day before, so they wouldn't have a bright future here.

"Vice president Harvey."

"Vice president Harvey."

Everyone greeted Jepherson, and Raeleigh was no exception.

Jepherson walked over to Raeleigh and carefully observed her with his deep eyes. "Continue."

"Yes, sir."

Raeleigh turned around and looked at the mechanical structure. The person who explained it to her was an engineer. He continued, "For cars like this, the designer should consider whether the decorative infrastructure of the car might clash with the exterior design. When we design the mechanical structure, what we look into are the performance and safety features of the car..."

"So, will there be inconsistencies from time to time?" Raeleigh looked at the person who spoke. When she was learning, she would often forget where she was and devote herself completely to the subject. She wasn't like others who could divert their attention away.

The other party said bluntly, "Actually, the main issue with your work is that it completely goes against our ideas. Here is some information I prepared last night. It contains the design of the car. We admit that you really are a genius, to be able to design such an excellent car, be its overall design, or innovative concept, they are all unique."

"But there are some that you aren't very familiar with, such as is the internal structure of the car."

For example, with this car. It took us a very long time, we worked entire days and nights to come up with a plan to works for you, This made us physically and mentally exhausted.

"On one hand, your design is very good, and we didn't want to waste it. On the other hand, your design was very stressful for us to handle. The car's layout had to be modified. And its interior..."

"The layout of the interior is relatively spacious, and your measurements are reasonable. Every bit of space is fully utilized, but at the same time, the structural integrity of the car isn't sound. For example, you can see here in terms of shock reduction and the seat adjusters..."

Raeleigh kept calm while she looked at the mechanical engineer. She felt guilty.

"It's my fault that I didn't think about this. I was ignorant and caused so much trouble to you." Raeleigh apologized. Lamarre stood at the side and sneered coldly. "I say, assistant engineer, are your here to belittle my apprentice?"

"No, Mr. Lee, you've misunderstood me. I'll be more constructive."

"Then, be constructive. Don't just complain about it."

Previously, Raeleigh would have been reluctant when Lamarre disagreed. Raeleigh smiled awkwardly. The engineer had the same awkward smile as well. "I'm not speaking against you. I'll be more concise. Otherwise, you'd leave us..."

"There's no problem with her design at all. On the contrary, you've been guiding her along differently. I'm just very conflicted with what you're doing."

Jepherson suddenly said this coldly, and the atmosphere became chilly.

The engineer paused for a moment and stared at him. Jepherson then took off his coat and handed it to Stuart. He unbuttoned his cuffs, then his collar, and handed his tie to Raeleigh.

Raeleigh held his tie, confused. "Did he wake up on the wrong side of the bed today?"

After tidying himself up, Jepherson walked over to the car. He popped the hood and pointed at a specific part of the engine.

"The motor's position shouldn't be changed. The designer would have considered this when they did the design. Reserve some space here, so that if you want to increase or decrease the overall shape, then the rest will adjust respectively. Whether this turns out well or not, totally depends on the people making it. The very best masters in the business have said that the appearance of the car must be considered as the overall structure of the car, no matter what vehicle you design."

"Miss Anson..."

Jepherson motioned at her, and Raeleigh replied, "Yes."

He glanced at her inadvertently and he then asked, "Did you skip that class?"

She was stunned...

Skipping class?
