Goodbye My Alpha (Taya and Griffon)

As soon as Stella put her phone into

the pocket of her white coat, she saw a

stylishly dressed and handsome man walking toward the VIP ward.

When he saw her, he raised his

eyebrows, and flashed her a blinding

smile. "Is Ms. Palmer in this ward, doctor?"

Hearing that he was looking for Taya,

Stella's expression froze. Was it really a

suitor who had come for Taya?

Stella was dejected, but kept a smile on

his face. "Yes. May I ask who you are?" 1521

He took out a business card from his suit

pocket and handed it to her. "My name is

1

Neil Sherwood."

She looked at the bronze-plated

business card which read "Chief

Architect of Sumasa Construction Co.,

LTD". With a subtle smile, she replied,

"Nice to meet you."

Neil grabbed her hand, putting the

business card in her palm, and grinned.

"Contact me if you're ever looking for someone to design your house. I'll give you a 20% discount."

After he said that, he quickly turned

around and walked into the ward.

However, the moment he turned around, the smile on his face disappeared

instantly.

Upon walking to the door of the ward, he paused and grinned once again as he knocked on the door. "Ms. Palmer, can I

come in?"

Harper, who was helping Taya massage her leg, heard the voice and looked up

at the man outside the door. "Who are

you?"

Neil leaned on the door frame with one

hand, and smoothed out the thin bangs

in front of his forehead. "Neil."

When Taya heard that name, she

recalled that Amon had mentioned that

he would get someone to teach her

about architecture.

She couldn't turn around, so she just

answered, "Come in."

Neil simply walked in. Upon seeing that her back was wrapped in layers of bandages, his thick eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Despite that, he didn't ask her what happened. All he did was say, "I don't

think you can even hold a pencil in that

state."

Taya felt a little embarrassed, and

glanced at him. "Sorry. I don't think I'll be

able to learn architecture from you for

the time being."

Neil flashed a clean smile. "It's okay. I'll teach you theoretical knowledge first." 5/11

He took out his phone and looked at the time before telling her, "I will teach you for two hours a day."

Taya nodded lightly and replied, "Okay. Thank you, Mr. Sherwood..."

Neil waved his hands indifferently, and the grin on his face remained the same.

It looked rather stiff.

After adjusting his smile, he stated, "Before I teach you, I need to understand

your basic situation."

Taya was lying on her stomach,

and didn't notice the change in his expression. Thus, she just nodded and responded, "Okay."

Having obtained her consent, Neil didn't hesitate to hit her in a sore spot. "Your sister graduated from Harvard. What about you?"

Taya's expression froze for a moment. Feeling rather insecure, she lowered her gaze and murmured, "A university in Arcadia..."

Taya shook her head, and he figuredNôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

out that it probably wasn't a very good

school.

There was a hint of contempt in his eyes, but he forced himself not to be hung up over her education. He quickly changed

the topic.

"What field of design did you study?" he questioned.

"Brand design," she answered.

"Have you won any awards?"

"I did for school-organized competitions.

Does that count?"

Neil was speechless.

After making a mental note about Taya's lack of talent, he stopped asking.

Neil forced a smile and told her, "The project your sister took on isn't some

ordinary interior design project. It's a landmark building that can represent every country and every city. You don't have any foundations, which means it's almost impossible for you to achieve

what your period of time. I suggest you first get to know her style, and then imitate it. Maybe nothing will go wrong."

sister has done in such a short

Naturally, Taya was aware of that. The

pressure in her heart only increased, but she firmly nodded. "I will work hard, Mr.

Sherwood."

Neil maintained a kind smile, but his tone was mocking. "Sometimes, hard work is useless when you have no talent."

Harper, who was sitting next to her, had already been annoyed ever since Neil started asking Taya about her educational background. She couldn't help but chime in, "You haven't even seen Taya's drawing skills. How do you know she has no talent?" Neil turned to glance at Harper. He couldn't maintain his grin, which

collapsed. "I can tell you never made it

past high school."

Harper clenched her fists, but Neil turned back around and smiled again. Looking at Taya, he added, "A friendly reminder, Ms. Palmer. My lectures are rather brutal. You have to mentally prepare yourself."

Taya nodded easily. "No problem."

Seeing that she was cooperative, Neil got up and left.

After walking out of the ward, he raised his hand and rubbed his cheeks that

hurt from smiling. He blurted, "Ugh. My cheeks hurt from smiling so much."
