Sorella raised her eyebrows and smiled wickedly as he was about to knock on the door.
"Mr. Dorchester, I advise you not to enter right now and it's best not to knock."
Not understanding the situation, Liam chuckled thinking she had been reprimanded by President
Arnold.
"Okie!"
However, what happened next was the complete opposite of what was advised. He raised his hand and
knocked on the door while ready to push the door open and enter.
At that moment, the door was pulled open from the inside and Isaac stood there staring coldly at Liam.
"What's the matter?" Isaac's expression was gloomy and his voice was as cold as ice.
Both Liam and Sorella who were standing at the door could not help but shiver at that.
Liam glanced at Sorella, who had already escaped, before realizing she was right.
"President Arnold, the banquet hall has been completely set up. Would you like to take a look? If—"
"No one is permitted to enter my office for the next two hours."
He turned around and exited his office after he finished instructing, leaving Liam stranded alone at the

Liam's lips trembled as he thought, I… am… not… finished!!!
He froze in place and only regained his senses after a while.
President Arnold seems to be uninterested in the engagement and became irritated whenever I
mentioned it. Okay, I got it. No more suicide questions like this.
Patricia had been sleeping for over an hour now. When she departed from dreamland, she was startled
and abruptly raised her head. Seeing that Isaac was still busy, she lifted her hand to wipe the saliva
from the corner of her mouth.
When she noticed the man's deep eyes scanning the room, she instantly sat up straight and pretended
to be busy with work. At that moment, the coat that was covering her body slipped off and she quickly
reached out to yank it back up only to realize it did not belong to her. Oh. It's his.

No wonder she had been sleeping so soundly; the cold but familiar scent of his body had filled her nose
and put her at ease this entire time.
At last, Patricia had connected the dots as she realized that Isaac was aware of her hour-long nap. As
a result, she rose and hung his coat onto the rack before approaching him.
"President Arnold, I woke up too early this morning and ran five kilometers with heavy loads, which
explains why I was a little tired earlier. I promise I'm not going to slack off in the future."
"Please don't let Josephine take over my position. I swear I will work hard."
"If you're still tired, you can rest on the bed over there. It's comfortable," Isaac suggested as he raised
his head to look at her.
He meant exactly what he said; he would have carried her to the bed a long time ago had he not been
afraid of waking her up.
To that, Patricia gave an awkward smile as she scratched her head. "President Arnold, I'm no longer
sleepy. I'll keep working." She then dashed back to her desk and got right to work.
At that moment, her phone rang and it was from Andy. She paused for a moment before answering the
phone.
"Hello."
"It's me. Addy is going to try on her wedding gown today. You should accompany her to give her some
opinions since you're both ladies who know best about aesthetics and whatnot."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPatricia had never expected a call from him, however, when she heard his words, she understood the
intention of his call.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Aniston. I'm busy at work right now." She hung up the phone as soon as she finished
speaking. Tossing her phone aside, she wished to not hear it ringing again.
Gwen, on the other hand, was adamant to show Adeline off in front of Patricia.
Frowning at her screen, Patricia was annoyed to see him calling her again.
After the call was connected, she deliberately placed her phone away from herself.
"He—Hello? The signal is weak here. I'll talk to you tomorrow."
Disconnecting the call, she immediately caught herself laughing sinisterly.
"I'm so smart," she muttered to herself.
The man who was seated not too far away saw this scene and looked at her with skepticism. Who just
called her?
Her cheeky behavior when she avoided the call was so adorable…
Still, the other party was yet to give up as Adeline was the one phoning her this time round. This girl will
not give up until she gets what she wants…
She picked up the phone and turned on the loudspeaker after heaving a sigh of distress.
"Adeline, I'm at work right now. Talk to President Arnold if you have any problem."
