Ruben Campbell took a deep breath and finally extended his hand to hers for a light handshake.
"Pleasure to collaborate."
"Great!" Vera Wave turned around, walked to her seat, picked up her computer and materials, "Then let's find a place to discuss."
Merlin Bradley and Ruben Campbell immediately packed up their things and followed her to the door.
"Vera, can I...?" A small voice came from the corner of the office, "Count me in?"
Vera turned her face and immediately saw Wang Xiaoya in the corner.

"Of course you can." Seeing her eyes filled with both trepidation and a hint of hope, Vera instantly smiled, "Welcome!"
A hint of joy appeared on Wang Xiaoya's chubby face as she hurriedly grabbed her things and a pen, and walked over.
