Chapter 85 The Cello
It was a very important project for Galaxy Holdings Group in the second half of the year. Prior to Meryl joining the company, there were private discussions about whom Chandler would appoint for this project. Achieving perfection in this project would undoubtedly add an impeccable record to one’s resume. Lisha attempted to strive for it in front of Chandler several times, but he never agreed. Unexpectedly, it ended up in the hands of Meryl, who arrived suddenly.
“What’s the use of her getting the project? Can she handle it? This is a merger and acquisition case involving multiple parties. If something goes wrong, she’ll never be able to afford the compensation on her own in her lifetime,” Lisha was jealous.
Josh frowned. “Since Mr. Aniston has entrusted it to Meryl, our team will complete it together. If something goes wrong, it is not her responsibility alone.”
Lisha snorted and didn’t respond.
Josh said to Meryl gently, “Take a look first, and ask me if you have any questions later. Don’t be shy.”
Freya also echoed, “Yes, yes. Mr. Carter is competent.”
Meryl nodded.
Time flew by as Meryl worked. She circled a few sections that she didn’t understand and planned to research related information later.
Chandler and Walter left the company before lunch. There seemed to be a project requiring them to negotiate outside the office, likely keeping them away for the entire day.
It was lunchtime. Freya took Meryl to the cafeteria. After lunch, Freya went upstairs for a nap. Meryl wandered around the company alone. On her first day at work, Josh mentioned that there was a music room in the leisure area. She arrived outside the music room unknowingly. This was a separate area, an independent space with good sound insulation. At that moment, it was empty. Meryl fixed her eyes on the cello hanging at the deepest part.
She hadn’t played the cello for a long time. Since that incident…

At the same time, Dalton exited the Human Resources Department.
“The manager stated that Ms. Stone was recruited normally and is currently working in the President’s Office,” Elias said, following behind Dalton.
Dalton stepped forward with a cold expression in silence. He had thought that Meryl came to work at Galaxy Holdings Group to attract his attention. But a few days passed, and Meryl did not take the initiative to approach him. This displeased Dalton. Meryl actually went to the President’s Office instead of the Marketing Department where he was. He really couldn’t understand Meryl more and more.
Upon passing by the leisure area, they heard the deep and gentle sound of a cello emanating from the music room. Dalton stopped. He was stunned for a few seconds. Then, he quickly walked towards the music room with eagerness. As he quickened his pace, Elias hurried to follow.
Chapter 85 The Cello
The cello’s melody was undeniably beautiful, low, and deep, evoking a sense of sorrow. Elias couldn’t quite grasp why Dalton reacted so strongly to it. The leisure area was divided into several areas and covered a large area. During lunch break, there were not many people. When Dalton rushed to the music room, the cello’s melody inside suddenly paused. Without any hesitation, he pushed the door open with anticipation. However, no one was inside. Dalton became anxious. He dashed to the cello and searched the music room completely. There was indeed no one.
“Did you hear someone playing the cello just now?” Dalton glanced at Elias, almost wondering if he had an allusion.
“Yes. The individual should have departed through another door.”
The music room had two doors, one leading into the company and the other leading outside.
Dalton frowned, lost in thought. He had heard that song many years ago.
