When Yvonne heard this, she really wanted to laugh. Why were her colleagues so cute?

They wouldn't believe her announcement.

However, everyone had their suspicions when she kept quiet. Why did they have such an odd way of thinking?

Yvonne was speechless.

She looked at everyone with her eyes full of exasperation before shaking her head, laughing, "I'm serious. Do you think I'm joking?"

Xandra and Isabelle both nodded solemnly, "Yes. We don't believe that you're serious. You're obviously making a joke."

"Fortunately for you, the President is gentle and kind. Even if you made such a joke, he played along because he didn't want you to embarrass yourself." Isabelle deduced confidently with a smile, "You can see how gentlemanly the President is. Oh, I think he's cooler and cooler."

Yvonne instantly turned speechless. She stared blankly at the women in front of her, who had several layers of makeup on their faces, and was at a loss for words.

Once a woman blindly believed in herself, people really wouldn't dare not to compliment her.

She shook her head and spoke with a smile, "All right, I am joking. As you can see, the President is a very nice person. He's a gentleman and went along with my joke, so he's a wonderful man."

"That's right, you see, we guessed it correctly." Xandra looked at Isabelle and said with great enthusiasm, "I told you they were joking. The President was obviously playing along."

"Yes, yes, yes. Miss Harrison, you're right. They're just joking." Isabelle nodded her head frantically.

Yvonne rubbed her eyes and stretched her body, "Then, can we go eat now? Where do you usually eat? Does our company have a cafeteria?"

"Yes." Xandra spoke, "We'll take you to a meal later. Why? Are you hungry?"

Yvonne nodded her head, and her stomach grumbled at the same time. She was indeed hungry. He didn't go easy on her the night before and she didn't eat much for breakfast. She was sleepy and hungry right now.

"I'm starving to death. I only want to eat now. It's time, isn't it?"

"Yes, we're not really hungry yet. Let's pack up. The food in our company's cafeteria is excellent.

It's rare for companies to have such delicious work meals." "Is that so?"

After packing up, Yvonne waited for them to go for lunch.

However, just as she was about to go to the cafeteria, Zachary called her over.

He came out of his office in a hurry and said in a deep voice as he looked at Yvonne, "Miss Attwood, we're heading out."

Yvonne looked at him and saw he had once again returned to his previous calm and unbothered appearance. It was as if her serious declaration had never happened.

Yvonne was stunned as she asked, "President, it's lunchtime right now. Where are we going? Can I have my lunch first?"

She was truly starving.

Zachary frowned and looked at her, "Are you really that hungry?"

Yvonne's heart tightened under his gaze. She blurted out, "Yes, I'm starving. I have been tired and starving since last night. I really want to have my lunch now. If it isn't something urgent, I would like to have something to eat first, or else I won't even have the energy to walk around."

She looked at Zachary without blinking her eyes when she said this.

She mentioned what had happened the night before on purpose.

Zachary's eyes twitched violently. He felt as if he had been teased.

That woman talked about what happened the night before while looking straight at him. Miss Harrison, Miss Allen wouldn't understand the deeper meaning behind her words nor would the others in the office, but he knew.

Only he knew what they did the night before.

How busy he was the night before.

From the moment Yvonne made her stance, she was no longer as reserved as she used to. Her eyes were filled with anticipation as she fixed her gaze on Zachary.

Yes, she deliberately mentioned their activity from the night before to see how Zachary would react.

Sure enough, Zachary lowered his gaze and cleared his throat. His face was covered with a faint blush.

However, when he noticed that Yvonne was looking at him, Zachary immediately collected himself and ordered in a deep voice, "You're my personal assistant. I have something to deal with, so of course, you need to follow me."

Yvonne looked at his face that had turned cold, and immediately knew that she had taken the joke too far. She put on a serious expression at once, "Very well, President, I'll go with you now." The two of them went down together.

Behind them, Xandra, Isabelle, and the others watched them depart.

Xandra said, "See, they're really not a couple. If they are, the President would have allowed Miss Attwood to have lunch. They're so familiar with each other. They are probably relatives and were joking just now."

"I think so, too. Maybe assigning Miss Attwood here was to get us to give up." Isabelle deduced.

"That makes sense."

"They're saying that they're relatives."

Everyone whispered and gossiped after Yvonne and Zachary left.

Yvonne and Zachary stood in silence in the elevator.

"Growl...growl..." Her stomach grumbled several times.

Yvonne didn't try to hide it. After all, she was indeed hungry.

Zachary naturally heard it.

He frowned and asked, "Are you that hungry?"

Yvonne nodded, "Yes. I'm starving. I overworked myself, so I'm naturally hungry."

Zachary's eyes flashed with a trace of anger again. He looked at her as he said, "I'm sure the person who overworked was me, not you, right?"

Yvonne was refuted, so she had to look up in his eyes. When she saw the light in them, she bit her lips and angrily turned her face away, saying, "Yeah, but my stamina isn't as good as yours." Zachary said faintly, "Thank you for the compliment."

Yvonne rolled her eyes at him.

She was rebuking him, not praising him. She didn't expect him to make use of this chance.

She looked at his face and saw that it had turned gentle again.

His temperament was no longer as bitter and hostile as before.

It was much better now.

Yvonne gradually let out a sigh of relief, and there was a faint smile in her eyes.

He was no longer that cold, and she felt warm on the inside.

When she met his eyes, Yvonne looked away and said softly, "Where are we going?"

Zachary said, "Didn't you say that you want to pursue me? I'll give you the chance to do so. Since you want me to be yours, I'll give you the opportunity. So what are you going to do now." Yvonne was stunned. She stared at him with her eyes wide open.

"What are you staring at?" Zachary asked.

When she saw a rare smile appear in his eyes, she instantly froze.

"You don't have anything to deal with? You asked me out, just to have me pursue you?"

Zachary said, "Can't I?"

Yvonne shook her head, "No, you can. Of course, you can."
