Yvonne was stunned. Why would he suddenly ask such a thing out of nowhere? How was she supposed to reply to such a private and ambiguous question?

Yvonne bit her lips. She wanted to look at him, but at the same time, she was embarrassed.

Zachary looked into her eyes and saw that she was avoiding his gaze. A faint smile appeared on his lips.

Coincidentally, Yvonne raised her eyes to look at Zachary after she had finally mustered enough courage.

She saw his smiling lips.

Yvonne was slightly taken aback. His smile was gorgeous.

He smiled on his own accord, which was much better than his usual cold face.

Yvonne took a step forward and said, "Yes, I'm quite tired. I'm so sleepy that I can't open my eyes. Miss Harrison and Miss Allen have been staring at me and whispering to each other. They're probably trying to figure out our relationship."

Zachary frowned and looked at her, "Are you snitching on them?"

Yvonne was startled. She thought to herself that President Lowe didn't like people who told on others. She actually didn't like it as well, but she didn't like those who gossip behind others' backs even more. Yvonne was quick to react. She directly said, "If you want to think so, then I have nothing to say. It doesn't bother me anyway. But I'm only laughing at the secretaries you hired. They can't mind their own business. The next time you hire someone, remember to put more thoughts into it."

After that, she saw Zachary's gaze sharpened.

Taking advantage of that opportunity, Yvonne smiled and said, "If there isn't anything else, I'll take my leave first."

Zachary's sharp gaze locked onto Yvonne's face. His thin lips were bitter cold as he said, "Are you running away after you've run your mouth?"

Yeah.

But Yvonne didn't want to admit it. She looked at him with a smile and blinked, "President, is there anything else?"

Zachary knew that she was playing dumb, but he did not expose her. "We will go to the boutique to try on the outfits tonight. Before that, we're having dinner together." He said lightly.

"Oh, thank you for taking care of my meals." Yvonne said, "Actually if you want to take me to banquets, we can eat at the banquet hall. I prefer buffets."

That was because, in such a place, there were many delicious and different kinds of food around.

Most importantly, during that time, if one merely stood there and did not eat, it would be boring.

When Zachary heard what she had said, he frowned and asked, "Do you really like the food at banquets?"

"Yeah." Yvonne nodded, remaining composed.

Zachary's gaze darkened. He nodded and said, "Well then, we'll eat there."

"President, may I ask what kind of a banquet it is?" Yvonne wasn't very sure about the role she would be playing.

"You'll know when we get there," Zachary said in a deep voice.

"Alright, I'll get going then!"

She wanted to exit the room again.

Yvonne's eagerness to leave really annoyed him.

He ordered in a low voice, "Get out."

Yvonne ran away in no time.

After a while, Zachary sighed, and his gaze sank as he muttered to himself, "Yvonne, don't disappoint me this time."

He couldn't stand such disappointment anymore.

He couldn't afford to spend another seven years on her either.

After work, Zachary brought Yvonne to the boutique to try on their formal outfits.

They got their outfits rather quickly, following the pictures they had decided on earlier. Yvonne looked at the gown she had chosen for herself. It was a conservative white dress, and the shoulder strap was wide, but the neckline was rather low, revealing slight cleavage.

The dress' style was conservative and elegant.

On the other hand, Zachary wore a dark suit, which made him look even more dashing.

And his tie made his Adam's apple sexier.

The two of them changed into their outfits and stood in front of the mirror. They did not look at their reflections, but at each other instead.

Zachary sized Yvonne up and nodded with satisfaction, "You've chosen an outfit to my liking."

"My gown?" Yvonne asked.

Zachary nodded.

Yvonne smiled and said, "I know, I can't wear revealing clothes. I'm not the type who likes to show off or expose herself either, but a tube top dress doesn't suit me. This suits me the best." Zachary looked at her. Under the light, she looked pure, and her eyes were bright. She was attractive.

Her hair was tied up, showing her long neck. It made her face look even more beautiful.

A strong emotion brewed in Zachary's heart as he looked at her.

He suddenly did not want to take her to the banquet anymore.

"Let's go," Yvonne said.

Zachary was pulled back to reality.

At this moment, someone reminded her, "Miss, you haven't put on any makeup yet. Why don't you do that to accentuate your dress and temperament?" "Makeup?" Yvonne pointed to herself, "Me?"

"Yeah."

The attendant nodded with a smile.

"Oh, alright." Yvonne nodded, "Come on then, let's put on some makeup."

Zachary did not object.

Immediately after, Yvonne went with someone to the dressing room to put on some makeup. Zachary sat on the sofa and waited for her.

Half an hour later, Yvonne finally came out.

When Zachary heard the sound, he lifted his head slightly and saw a dazzling figure appearing in front of him.

Her face was more refined than before.

Her palm-sized face was fair, crimson, gentle, and her facial features were more refined. Her eyes looked big and lively because of her eyeliner and mascara.

Her beautiful eyes and her long eyelashes were like the wings of a swan's.

Zachary stood up, held his breath, and slowly walked towards Yvonne.

Soon, he was in front of her.

Yvonne stood on the spot, feeling somewhat restrained. That was the first time she had put on such fine makeup, and it felt a bit out of place.

She asked Zachary nervously, "What do you think? How do I look? Do you think it's okay?"

Zachary lowered his eyes and looked at her. Then he reached out and held her in his arms.

Yvonne lifted her eyes in confusion and looked at Zachary, wanting to tell his emotions from his eyes.

When she saw the darkness in his eyes, she really hoped that time would freeze at that moment.

Because the pair of eyes were stunning.

His eyes were filled with her figure, and he could only see her.

Her hand gently rested on Zachary's arms, and she called in a low voice, "Zachary?"

Zachary could hear the tremors in her voice as he mumbled a yes. His voice was slightly hoarse, and it revealed his emotions.

He liked it a lot.

Yvonne could tell from his voice.

Her nervousness was completely relieved. She looked at Zachary and said softly, "It's not too bad, isn't it?"

Zachary did not answer. After a long silence, he whispered in her ear, "It looks good. I don't want to go to the banquet anymore. I only want to go back to the apartment." She understood.

Yvonne completely understood.

She blushed in an instant.

She turned her face away and said in a low voice, "Stop messing around. I'm going to pay. Let's go."

Zachary looked at her and nodded.

Yvonne was going through the normal procedure. She paid the bill first. Then she would get a reimbursement from the company.

Zachary did not care and let her do as she pleased.

He merely looked at her busy figure; his eyes never left her for a moment the entire time.

He felt that it wasn't bad like this.

Soon, she was done with the bill. She came back, looked at Zachary, and said, "Zachary, let's go."

Zachary lifted his arm slightly.

Yvonne reached out her hand and took his arm.

The two of them left together. They were a perfect match. Anyone who saw them would be mesmerized.
