MY NAME IS DAISY - NOT A BAD DUCK
27. Stay in Amber City
Today's schedule is to look at the preparation of tea beverage factories and fruit packaging. Just wait for the arrival of UHT machines to sterilize the finished beverage packaging. The machine was ordered from Japan. It will likely arrive later in the afternoon. Because this morning the machine was already on its way from the sea port of Brown city. It will take about 4 hours to get to the city of Amber from the port located at the northern end of the town of Brown.
"If Fiorella's factory and company office were all in Amber, it would mean that I would indeed settle back here" Daisy looked at Grandpa Edoardo during the lunch break.
"That was Grandpa's goal. So you can more freely divide the time for all companies that you lead" said Grandpa.
"Once in a while still have to play visiting Grandpa and Grandma at the garden party at the main house. Fiore's house is your home anyway" Grandpa continued.
"Later Grandfather will also hold regular activities for the Edoardo family in our villa in this Amber city"
"Once upon a time his garden party was held here" continued Grandpa Edoardo.
"It's so fun like that, Grandpa"Daisy looked at her Grandpa. Touched.
"Thank you, Grandpa" said Daisy.
"Grandfather should have done this while your parents and sister were still around" Grandpa said in a heavy tone. There was a tone of regret and sadness mingled there.
"They're happy there, Cake. They must be happy with what Grandpa and Grandma did for me"Daisy comforted Grandpa.
"Yes, they've calmed down there" Grandpa's eyes seemed to sparkle with a puddle of tears that didn't drip out.
Then Grandpa looked at Daisy and Maxi alternately.
"As for your relationship, Grandpa wants you to get engaged first"
Maxi and Daisy meet each other.
"I agree with Grandpa's wishes. Because I thought about it yesterday, too" Maxi said.
"What are you, Daisy?" ask Grandpa.
"Grandfather just wants everyone to know that you two have a special relationship, not just a cousin relationship" Grandpa said.
"At the same time we're not cousins" Maxi said.
"For everyone not to misunderstand our closeness" Maxi continued.
Grandpa Edoardo nodded in agreement.
"I agree, Grandpa. It's a very good idea" Daisy said.
"Well, when we get back to Brown. Grandpa will discuss this with your parents, Maxi" Grandpa seems pleased with Maxi and Daisy's decision.
"Rememember Grandpa's message. Take good care of Daisy" Grandpa told Maxi.
"I'll take good care of Daisy Grandpa" Maxi replied.
"Lusa we're back in Brown. Tomorrow you can take a day off for a walk" Grandpa said.
"Until the town of Brown, you can settle the affairs that are still pending before Fiorella's office is inaugurated at the end of next month"
"Daisy has to prepare for her performance at a music festival. And you, Maxi. Clear up some of your important affairs in England immediately" Grandpa continued.
"Grandfather and your father have taken care of your departure there" Grandpa looked at Maxi.
"Thank you, Grandpa. Hopefully my business there can be resolved quickly" said Maxi.
"You are still part of the Edoardo family.. Since childhood, grandparents have loved you. Don't be too shy just because you already know that you're not our granddaughter" Grandpa patted Maxi on the shoulder, then took them away.
Daisy looked at Maxi questioningly. He doesn't know about Maxi's plans to go to England.
"Tomorrow I tell you. I just got the news three days ago. And there's no time to tell you" Maxi said, understanding Daisy's gaze.
They're back at Fiorella's office building. Grandfather invited them and other directors to meet with vendors of raw material suppliers and other auxiliary materials.
One such supplier is Daisy's Benvollio Farm. Benvollio Farm is a supplier of tea shoots and apples that has signed a cooperation agreement with Fiorella company. Although the amount of supply that can be sent is only thirty percent of the total needs. This is because Benvollio Farm currently still has to meet the demand of several companies that have worked together since the leadership of Benvollio's grandfather and Bella's mother.
The opening of the Fiorella plant will be held at the end of next month. Daisy and Maxi are currently just taking care of their work space. For the interior design they asked Clarissa for help. Actually, everything is ready. Only, Daisy and Maxi want there to be a little addition to the design according to their needs. To help Clarissa hone her skills.

"There was an interior design request for a workspace from Ferguson Waterpark" the voice of her father standing in front of her desk made Clarissa look up in shock. Because he didn't know that his father was in his room.
"That means they admit that my design is good, doesn't it, dad?" Clarissa squealed in excitement.
Father nodded.
"I think it's only because I'm Grandpa's granddaughter that my designs are used in this plaza" Clarissa murmured.
"Grandfather won't wear your design if the results aren't good, Clariss" said his father.
"You look a lot like your mommy. Very good at drawing and designing"dad stroking Clarissa's hair.
My mom is an interior design entrepreneur. His grandfather was in America. At this time the company mommy appointed Edoardo's grandfather to handle the interior design of the whole room of this plaza. And Clarissa was seconded to this plaza at the request of Grandpa Edoardo.
"Tomorrow morning at eleven we leave for the Ferguson waterpark. They invited us to lunch" his father said again.
Clarissa nodded happily. "Ready, dad"
"Now you and Cedro come with me to the fifth floor. The boutique Ferguson group wants to share some things about its design" said the father.
"Are there any mistakes or flaws in the design I made, Dad?"
"Oh that's not it. They just want there to be more detail in some spots"
"Cedro was already there" continued his father when Ckarissa looked up to find Cedro.
"Now, dad? why so suddenly?" ask Clarissa.
"Are you not ready?" his father asked back.
"Ooh of course I'm ready, dad. I'm coming" Clarissa grabbed her bag and her phone rushed.
He does not want to be considered unprepared to work spontaneously.
They rushed to the fifth floor where there were restaurants and boutiques belonging to the Ferguson group. They did rent that entire floor for some of his business.
Cedro was talking to someone.
"Hallo..Jhon. How are you?" I shook the hand of the man who was talking to Cedro.
"Very good, Mr. Roger. May you also always be good" said Jhon.
"Hi, Clarissa. Long time no see" Jhon waved to Clarissa.
"Call remember me?" ask Jhon.
"Of course remember, Jhon. You're Cedro's best friend at Gents Stella Marina's boutique" replied Clarissa kindly.
"I just found out that Gents boutique belongs to the Ferguson group just like Stella Marine" Cedro said
"Jhon was also entrusted by Mr. Ferguson to handle the Gents and Ladies boutiques in this plaza" Cedro explained.
"ooh okay. So what do you want to add here?" ask dad.
"Can you tell Clarissa, Jhon" he continued, telling Jhon who seemed surprised.
"So the interior designer is Clarissa?" John looked at Clarissa in admiration.
Clarissa was wrong. Because Jhon looked at him barely blinking.
Cedro cleared his throat, making Jhon refocus.
"OK, let me show you some spots that we want to ask for there are additional details" said Jhon.
They walked into the boutique area. John explains what to add.
While explaining Jhon's heart actually felt something very strange every time Clarissa looked up and said to him.
