Chapter 253

In a private room named Bambusa in Spago, Zachary and Isaac were seated by the table while theirassistants were just beside them. As they watched their bosses glaring at each other, they werehelpless.

Eventually, they rose from the chairs at the same time and lifted their glasses.

"I'll propose a toast to you, Mr. Selwyn."

"I'll propose a toast to you, Mr. Arnold."

Isaac shot a dispassionate look at Zachary's assistant, Darell Mcgee. On the other hand, Zacharyswept an impassive glance over Liam. None of them responded to the assistants.

Liam and Darell were embarrassed, so they clinked their glasses and gulped down the wine. After theywere seated, they wouldn't dare to do anything silly again. Hence, they could only look at each other.

They had never felt so helpless before. The fact that they were respectively the special assistants tothe presidents suggested that they had excellent capabilities. However, they often felt useless whenthey dealt with their bosses.

Breaking the silence, Zachary asked, "Aren't you here to talk about the plot of land in Eastville, Mr.Arnold? Have you decided to sell it to me?" He pretended to be friendly with a faint smile, buteverything he said sounded scornful. There was no denying that he was a haughty person despite

appearing affable.

On the other hand, Isaac gaped at him unenthusiastically. "I can sell you the land since it doesn'tmatter to me. However, Patricia is my woman, so I don't want you to approach her again."

His rationale was clear; he could give up the plot of land but not his woman.

The smile on Zachary's face faded when he heard that, and it was replaced with coldness.

"You might not be aware of it yet, Mr. Arnold, but I've known Patricia for five years. I've been wooingher during this period, and she's considering becoming my partner. Love cannot be forced. I don't thinkshe'll fall in love with a womanizer like you."

Zachary believed that he knew Patricia very well. An innocent woman like her wouldn't love a lasciviousman.

Other than Adeline, Isaac was also in an ambiguous relationship with Rose. It was also said that therewas a woman he looked up to, and he had been looking for her over the years. There was no wayPatricia would fall in love with this kind of man. Even if she was besotted with Isaac, Zachary wasdetermined to make her stay away from that jerk.

All of a sudden, Isaac laughed. "Don't you think you're too conceited, Mr. Selwyn? Do you think youknow her very well? You might not be aware of it yet, but after you sent her flowers today, she kissedme and said she loves someone like me."

Then, he poured himself a cup of wine and squinted before chugging it down joyfully.

A moment later, he said to Liam, "Have you brought the contract with you? Give it to Mr. Selwyn. If he'swilling to sign the contract, the plot of land in Eastville will be his."

Liam put down the contract in front of Zachary, who soon realized that there was a condition in thecontract. It was stated that Zachary would have to stop wooing Patricia. Besides that, he could neversee her or contact her again.

The moment he saw the condition, he tore the contract apart. "Stop daydreaming, Isaac! We still haveother projects even if we don't get the plot of land in Eastville, but I'll never give up on Patricia!"

He rose from the chair after he finished speaking.

Darell quickly got up as well. "We'll take our leave, Mr. Arnold. See you, Liam!"

Zachary glowered at him. "Stop talking to people like them. Go!"

They left the room and shut the door with a bang.

Liam stole a glance at Isaac, who was drinking wine cheerfully. He had to acknowledge that no onewas better than Isaac when it came to enraging others.

Zachary's expression earlier suggested that he was infuriated.

Perhaps he has never kissed Miss Aniston before. He must be jealous, Liam thought.

Isaac filled his cup with wine again and eyed Liam. "Do you have a girlfriend now, Liam?"

He recalled that Liam used to have a girlfriend, but they broke up for some reason. This guy is in histhirties, but he is still single. What a pity.
