    Chapter 1371


    Driven by curiosity, she couldn’t help but ask when there was no one else in the elevator, “Ms. Gipson,


    do you like Byran?”


    Ida replied casually, “What do you think?”


    Belinda pondered. “I think you at least don’t dislike him; otherwise, you wouldn’t bother with him. But I


    feel you’re more suited for a mature man, not someone childish like Byran.”


    Ida gave a small smile, notmenting on what Belinda said. Instead, she asked, “You’re here to see


    Chase this early?”


    Upon hearing Chase’s name, Belinda’s expression changed, and she shook her head. “No, I’m here for


    Jacob.”


    The elevator doors opened, and Ida walked out slowly. “Alright, off you go.”


    Belinda didn’t manage to ask anything and felt a bit disappointed.


    Ida always seemed distant. Like just now, her demeanor was calm, and she had a smile on her face. It


    seemed like she was responding to Belinda, but she didn’t actually say anything.


    Belinda really admired strong women like Ida, who seemed to handle everything effortlessly and didn’t


    seem to care about anything. Unlike her, who was indecisive and had difficulty making decisions.


    Walking in the opposite direction of Ida, Belinda arrived at Jacob’s desk.


    Seeing Jacob busy typing on hisputer, she took a deep breath and walked over.


    “Jacob!”


    Upon hearing Belinda’s voice, Jacob turned around, looking surprised, and then his expression turned


    serious. “What are you doing here?”


    Belinda went over to him and said, “Because of some special circumstances yesterday, I couldn’t


    exin things clearly over the phone. So, I’m here now to exin to you in person.”


    Jacob turned back to hisputer, checking the data in the files, not looking at Belinda again, and said


    in an unfriendly tone, “I don’t have time right now. I have to present for our team in a meetingter. You


    should go back.”


    “Oh, it’s okay. Go ahead. I’ll wait for you in the cafeteria.”


    Belinda knew Jacob was angry because he had never been cold to her before.


    She was at fault for what happened yesterday and had to sincerely apologize.


    Belinda stopped bothering Jacob and turned to go to the cafeteria, but bumped into a man in a sleek


    suit and caught a whiff of a high-end men’s perfume.


    She was very familiar with this fragrance because it was Chase’s scent.


    Looking up, she saw Chase’s handsome face and noticed that he was smiling broadly.


    “You’re here to see me this early?”


    Belinda frowned, thinking he was deliberately teasing her. He clearly knew she wasn’t here for him.


    ‘Mr. Larios, I’m not…”


    Chase cut off her denial and patted her head lightly. “You went to bed sote; why didn’t you sleep in a


    bit? You’re up so early?””Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.


    Jacob heard their conversation, picked up a file to copy, nodded at Chase as a greeting, and walked


    away.


    He admitted he couldn’t confront his direct superior, but he could always avoid him and just not look at


    him.


    After seeing Jacob walk away, Belinda knew he might have misunderstood again and angrily


    confronted Chase, “Why did you have to say such ambiguous things? You know I’m not here for you!”
