Chapter 1421 The Rumor Mill


    Isaac slowly raised his head at thement, his gaze falling on the secretary without uttering a word.


    Then, he ced his pen on the desk.


    When the secretary noticed Isaac''s gaze, he momentarily assumed there was something amiss with


    his appearance and quickly checked his immacte suit.


    So, he couldn''t help but wonder why Isaac was staring at him when he found nothing wrong with his


    attire.


    "Mr. Quill, is there a problem?"


    The secretary asked, his eyes reflecting his confusion about Isaac''s silent contemtion.


    Isaac suddenly realized his secretary was rather dense. "I''ll deliver it personally. There''s no need for


    your involvement."


    The secretary instantly recognized his blunder upon hearing Isaac''s response.


    Who was Isaac Quill? How could he ever make such a fundamental error?


    "Yes." The secretary didn''t dare to linger any longer and hastily fled the office.


    He hoped that Isaac would overlook his mistake this time.


    It wasn''t until the secretary returned to his desk that he realized Isaac always treated Roxanna


    differently. Yet, he couldn''t quite pinpoint why. Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.


    Isaac nced at the documents on the desk as he thought things over. Then, he picked up the


    documents and exited the office.


    The incident at the cafe yesterday had already caused a buzz in the office. This was the first time a


    scandal involving Isaac had emerged, and the other party was the head of the medical base. How


    could this not be shocking?


    "Did you hear? Isaac and Miss Miller spent a considerable time in the cafe yesterday. Their rtionship


    is probably still fresh. They''re practically inseparable."


    Thepany''s employees were all abuzz with gossip. They chatted daily about which mistress the


    bosses of otherpanies were with today. Now that they had caught wind of their own boss'' affairs,


    how could they let it pass?


    "I also heard that Isaac invested in the medical base. Want to guess how much? Well, don''t. It''s two


    hundred million!"


    Another gossip enthusiast couldn''t help but gasp in shock upon hearing this.


    "Doesn''t the medical base not meet our investment criteria? How could Isaac make such a


    fundamental error..."


    An employee was puzzled as he rubbed his hungry stomach.


    It was lunchtime, and everyone was preparing to eat with their colleagues.


    "How naive could you possibly be? It''s definitely because of love!" A nearby employee immediately


    retorted in a somewhat exasperated tone.


    Isaac, clutching the documents, appeared in everyone''s sight. His face was adorned with a faint smile,


    indicating his good mood.


    He was now on his way to finalize the contract with Roxanna. The thought of seeing her so soon filled


    his heart with joy.


    He probably didn''t realize that his feelings for her had long crossed the line of simple fondness. It was


    no longer a mere curiosity but a deeper emotion.


    Isaac didn''t use a chauffeur. Instead, he drove away by himself.


    After Isaac left, the crowd that had fallen to a hush immediately became lively again.


    "Why is Isaac smiling so happily? Although he usually smiles, this feelspletely different!"


    "Yeah, could it be that he''s going to see Miss Miller?"


    Immediately, an employee spected about Isaac''s intentions, but it was just a conjecture, and no one


    took it seriously.


    "Oh, I''m sure he is."


    Although it was a conjecture, who could resist getting emotionally invested in some romance? So, they


    quickly concurred without even bothering to fact-check.


    The secretary was about to enjoy his lunch when he overheard various rumors, some of which left him


    utterly stunned.


    There was even a rumor saying that Roxanna was Isaac''s long-time fiancée...


    Isaac stood at the entrance of the medical base. When he saw that there was no one inside, he


    couldn''t help but dawdle outside. Just as he was about to approach the security guards to ask for


    assistance, they greeted him without prompting, "Isaac, right? Pleasee in."


    He had been frequenting the ce these past few days, and the security guards were no longer


    surprised by his appearance. They had long noticed Isaac standing at the entrance and were


    wondering why he hadn''t approached their doors. Just as they were about to inquire whether he


    needed help, they caught sight of Isaac sauntering over.


    Could it be that he was interested in their boss? The two security guards thought to themselves,


    exchanging a knowing smile.


    That wouldn''t be too bad, as the two seemed rather well-matched.
