No More Layovers for a Love That Won't Land novel Chapter 212

Chapter 212

The Next Day.

In the afternoon, Harry and the core technical team of his company came to Cole to discuss work.

Over the past few days, Harry had been very cooperative in his work, saving Freya a lot of trouble. As a result, she had become more polite toward

him.

As soon as he arrived, Freya set aside her work to meet with him.

After more than an hour, Harry’s phone rang. It was a call from Matteo.

After apologizing to Freya, Harry stepped outside to take the call.

What was said on the phone wasn’t clear, but after a brief silence, Harry responded with a simple, “Okay.”

As he was about to end the call, Matteo suddenly said, “My father is back, and we’ll have dinner at home tonight. I’ll have to trouble you to come by.”

Harry paused, “Your father’s back?” he asked, then added, “How many days will he be staying?”

“Two or three days.”

After hanging up, Harry returned to the meeting room. He looked thoughtfully at Freya, who was still deep in conversation with his technical team, unaware of his gaze.

After the meeting ended, as Freya stood up to send them off, Harry asked, “Are you working overtime tonight?”

Freya replied casually, “Yes, I still have some things to handle.”

Harry’s gaze darkened.

In other words, she wouldn’t be going back to the Wilson family tonight.

His heart stirred, and he asked, “Do you have time later? Would you like to have dinner together?”

Freya shook her head, “No, I have a lot to do. I can’t get away.”

Harry thought about offering to have takeout delivered to her, but she wasn’t officially divorced yet. Given their current relationship, it would be inappropriate for him to make such a suggestion.

After sending Harry and his team downstairs, Freya quickly went back upstairs.

Harry watched her retreating figure for a long time before pulling his gaze away and speaking to Leo, the core tec‘ cian in his company, “I need a favor.”

Leo replied, “What is it?”

“I have a friend who wants to delve deeper into natural language processing. Right now, he needs a top–level teacher…”

Leo, understanding the request, didn’t hesitate. However, he paused and added,

“Although I’m quite skilled in this area, to be honest, I don’t think I’m as capable as General Gray from Cole or Miss Miller, who has been talking to us about cooperation. Since Mr. Becker wants to help his friend, I believe getting help from Miss Miller or General Gray might be more effective.”

Harry was taken aback by this response.

He had studied finance in college and didn’t understand AI. But Leo was an expert in the field of natural language processing and was well known in America, even if he wasn’t the absolute top.

Chapter 212

Harry hadn’t expected Leo to praise Freya so much. He remembered how Johnny had been tirelessly praising her in front of others,

While Harry knew that Freya had ability, he had assumed Johnny’s praise was based on personal interest or exaggeration. But now it seemed

“Mr. Becker?” Leo called out, snapping Harry out of his thoughts.

Harry quickly replied, “General Gray and Miss Miller have personal grievances with my friend, so it wouldn’t be suitable

“I see…” Leo nodded, understanding, but didn’t press the matter.

In the Evening.

Later that evening, when Harry and Leo arrived at the private dining room, Raven had already arrived.

Upon seeing Leo, Raven was very polite. After exchanging pleasantries, she immediately began asking him professional questions.

Harry only listened quietly, barely participating in the conversation. He seemed distracted.

After a while, Raven looked at Harry and smiled, “Feeling bored?”

Harry snapped back to attention, “It’s fine,” he replied. “You two carry on, I don’t mind.”

Raven smiled and didn’t hesitate to continue asking Leo for advice.

Raven was genuinely eager to improve herself, so she was very focused on learning. Her humility and enthusiasm made Leo more than willing to teach her.

After understanding her current level in this field, Leo helped her plan a learning path and introduced her to the latest developments in the field.

At dinner, the conversation was lively. However, it was clear that they were only scratching the surface tonight.

Raven was seeking in–depth learning, and Leo agreed to spare half a day tomorrow to meet her and continue the discussion.
