Aaron was a handsome man, while Corinne was a beautiful woman, and they made for a ratherattractive pair.

A look of gloom and envy flashed across Sherlyn’s eyes when she saw Corinne walking side-by- sidewith Aaron, Newmoon Group’s vice president. She was forced to be friendly to Corinne in front of threebig shots, but she still asked in a rather insinuative tone, “Where did you run off to, Corinne?”

Corinne came over and replied earnestly, “I went to look for the restroom but couldn’t replace it. I bumpedinto Mister Aaron here and asked him to lead me there.”

Sherlyn glared gloomily at Corinne, then turned to Aaron before saying politely, “Mister Aaron, I’m reallysorry that my assistant caused you trouble.”

Aaron curled his lips into a smile. “It was no trouble at all. I just happened to be on my way to therestroom too, so I might as well help her out.”

Sherlyn smiled dryly, and she was quite displeased that Corinne was able to run into Aaron all byherself.

Corinne asked obediently again, “You’re back already, Sherlyn? Did you already get an idea of the newproduct?”

Sherlyn could not be bothered to answer Corinne’s question and thought to herself, ‘Why is a punyassistant asking so many questions ?! She then turned and looked at Xante with a smile. “Miss Xante,I’ve already understood the product. May I ask when we’ll be able to sign the contract?”

Xante’s expression had returned to normal, and she said in a professional tone, “This cooperation mustbe finalized with the agency. A celebrity cannot sign a contract by themselves.”

Sherlyn smiled. “Not a problem! My manager will come over later in the afternoon to discuss the detailswith you!”

Xante nodded. “Sure. You may ask for Mister Luke when you bring your manager over in theafternoon.”

“Sure thing, thank you!” Sherlyn was glad to have secured the same. time, she made a point to ask,“Oh, about my new movie…”

Xante’s lips twitched. I’ll consider investing in the new movie if the response to your

ambassadorial advertisement is positive.”

“Thank you, Miss Xante, I promise I won’t let you down!” Sherlyn exuded confidence as she made thatvow. “I’ll leave you to your affairs right now and return with my manager later in the afternoon.

Xante responded with a soft grunt and did not show too much politeness to her.

Sherlyn turned around and glanced at Corinne in disgust. “Let’s go!”

Corinne said, “Wait! I need to get my phone. I left it there!”

“Go get it then.” Sherlyn’s patient-sounding words masked her impatience. Had there not been. anyoneelse around, she would have scolded Corinne for being a lazy donkey who did naught at her job.

Corinne walked right past Jeremy without even bothering to look at him. She went around him, pushedopen the door of the president’s office, and strutted right in.

She walked to the sofa inside the office’s lounge, grabbed her cell phone, and put it in her pocket.

On the sofa at one side, ‘Moon’ wore a gas mask and sat there with a laptop while typing busily, as ifrecording something down.

Outside the door, Jeremy’s tall body stood there and he glanced coldly into the office. When he saw‘Moon’ and Corinne appearing in the same place at the same time, his eyebrows furrowed, and thegloominess in his eyes dissipated gradually.

Xante turned to look at Jeremy and said with a smile, “It appears that Moon hasn’t taken her rest yet. Iwon’t stop you if you wish to speak to her, Mister Jeremy.”

Jeremy glanced back coldly and said, “That won’t be necessary anymore.”

Following his comment, he immediately turned around and brought Tommy away.

Upon seeing that Jeremy had left, Sherlyn bid goodbye to Xante and Aaron respectfully, then urgedCorinne to walk faster just so they could catch up with Jeremy and take the same elevator with him.

As soon as the elevator closed after Corinne and Sherlyn went in, Xante frowned worriedly and askedAaron, “What happened? How did Corinne manage to escape?”
