Love Amidst the Flames

Chap 40

After about half an hour, the car stopped in front of a large headquarters building with the letters "EL" prominently displayed at the front. Charlotte looked at the building in surprise, her curiosity piqued. Engfa simply smiled, took Charlotte's hand, and led her inside, passing through gleaming glass doors. The lobby was modern and stylish, with every detail meticulously designed to convey professionalism and elegance.

Charlotte glanced around, a bit overwhelmed:

• "Engfa... What is this place?"

Engfa looked into Charlotte's inquisitive eyes, then gently explained:

• "Charlotte, this EL company... it's one of my biggest dreams. But since having you by my side, it means so much more. I want us to build our future here together, not just as a job, but as a second home-a place where we can grow together and share every joy and challenge."

Charlotte gazed deeply into Engfa's eyes, hers brimming with emotion:

• "I... I never imagined you'd want me to be part of your dream like this. Being with you, standing by your side, is the most wonderful thing I could ever wish for."

Engfa embraced Charlotte gently, feeling each beat of her heart. In the vast but warm space of EL, they both sensed a serene peace and immense hope for the future. They stood together in silence, as if promising that no matter the challenges, they would always remain by each other's side, building a life full of love and fulfillment.

Engfa then guided Charlotte on a tour of the company. Hand in hand, they looked so happy and affectionate that anyone who saw them couldn't help but smile. Engfa passionately introduced each detail of the company's space and structure.

• "This is the main production area, where every product is crafted with the dedication of everyone involved."

Engfa stopped by a large sign reading "Enduring Legacy" and looked over at Charlotte with a proud smile.

• "Charlotte, I named the company Enduring Legacy. It doesn't just mean a lasting heritage, but it also represents the resilient spirit of our country after the war," Engfa explained softly.

• "And EL also stands for our initials-Engfa and Charlotte."

Charlotte held Engfa's hand tightly, her eyes shining with pride.

• "I'm truly happy knowing you've poured your heart into this. I know these are values you always cherish and protect."

They continued to the fourth floor, Engfa's workspace. Charlotte observed the spacious yet minimalistic office, with a cream sofa, a bookshelf filled with vintage books, and a large desk. Engfa led Charlotte to the sofa and gently introduced her:

• "Charlotte, this is Dao. Dao has been with me from the early days, helping me manage and overcome countless difficulties."

Dao smiled warmly and greeted Charlotte respectfully.

• "It's so nice to meet you, Charlotte. I've heard a lot about you."

Charlotte tightened her hold on Engfa's hand, her gaze sparkling as she looked at Dao.

• "Thank you so much, P'Dao. I know Engfa has worked incredibly hard to build this place."

Dao nodded with a gentle smile, then looked over at Engfa.

• "Engfa never gave up. Even on the exhausting days when she wanted to stop, she'd remind herself that someone was waiting at the end of the journey."

Engfa smiled softly and turned to Charlotte.

• "I always thought of you, Charlotte. You're my inspiration to build this 'Enduring Legacy'."
