Chapter 87 Miss Symons Assumes Authority
The butler arranged for a car to take Isabe to thepany, along with two

bodyguards.
When she was a secretary, Isabe had never received such treatment, but
now it had upgraded after she was banished. It made her feel uneasy.
During the five years that she worked at the Shaffer Group, she had never felt
afraid to enter the door. However, the sudden addition of two bodyguards
and the fact that she had someone opening the door for her when she got
out of the car made her slightly hesitant.
“Miss Symons, please.” The bodyguards were diligent.
With her back straight, Isabe mustered her courage to enter the building.

Her high heels nked against the floor, and her every step seemed to be
precisely measured. To the others, her face was filled with pride and without
any hint of nervousness.
“Hello, Miss Symons.”
The series of greetings felt familiar to her. While she nodded to them in
response, her grip on the lunch box gradually tightened.
She was worried about meeting Seth and wondered what she would do if he
publicly humiliated her.
“Miss Symons, let me carry it for you. It’s heavy.” The bodyguard suddenly
spoke up.
Smiling, Isabe naturally handed over the lunch box, and the elevator
Chapter 87 Miss Symons Assumes Authority
happened to arrive.
The door to the president’s exclusive elevator opened, revealing Selena.
“Isabe?”
Isabe pursed her lips and gave a simple nod before entering the elevator
with the two bodyguards.
Many watched the scene where both executive secretaries met. One was
shy and the other aloof, which made it clear who was better.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Selena wasn’t in a hurry to get out but
moved aside to make way for Isabe, smiling sweetly.
Once the elevator doors closed, although she was still smiling, the smile in
Chapter 87 Miss Symons Assumes Authority
her eyes had disappeared. “Isabe, it’s still working hours now.”
Meanwhile, Isabe stood straight and met the woman’s eyes in the
reflection on the elevator doors, speaking calmly, “Since it’s working hours,
shouldn’t you be with Mr. Shaffer? Why did youe downstairs? I
remember the office has designated secretaries for such things.”
Selena clenched her fists. “Mr. Shaffer went out on a business meeting.”
Isabe felt relieved and was happy to hear that Seth was out. However, she
maintained her calm demeanor and spoke in the tone of a senior. “You’ve
been working for almost half a month. Shouldn’t you be apanying Mr.
Shaffer on his outings?”
Those words just happened to poke at Selena’s sore spot, and her eyes
narrowed. Nics had been the one apanying Seth on his outings
Chapter 87 Miss Symons Assumes Authority
recently. There were several times when Selena requested to go with them.
At first, Seth would tell her to gain more knowledge, but recently, there were
times when he seemed frustrated with her and even asked if she was a
professional.
As if she didn’t feel aggrieved enough, she didn’t expect Isabe to point it
out so openly.
“Mr. Shaffer told me to consolidate my knowledge. After all, there are many
things a woman should learn about before heading outside.” Selena could
barely maintain her smile as she turned to look at Isabe.
However, Isabe didn’t look at her but instead looked at the numbers on the
side,menting, “Time is money. While you can take your time, he also has
the authority to rece you.”

Isabe found it hrious because the young woman clearly didn’t have an
innocent mind, yet she seemed very immature in some aspects, and the
words she said also seemed foolish.
Ding!
The elevator doors opened on the 38th floor-Seth’s executive office.
After taking a deep breath, Isabe felt her breathing turn smooth and
quickly got out.
In the meantime, the people in the secretarial department were about to go
and have lunch When they bumped into Isabe, they were all
dumbfounded.
Isabe’s attitude remained the same as before, and she spoke in the tone of
Chapter 87 Miss Symons Assumes Authority
an executive secretary. “You guys have worked hard.”
Everyone made way for her. “Hello, Isabe.”
“Isabe, Mr. Shaffer has gone out,” Ellie came forward and informed Isabe.
Isabe nodded and nced at the lunch boxes the bodyguards were
holding. “I’m just here to send lunch.”
Ellie and Fiona exchanged nces while the rest also felt confused, suddenly
unable toprehend Isabe and Seth’s current rtionship.
“Is the passcode still the same as before?” After arriving before the
president’s office, Isabe casually entered the passcode.
Then, the door opened with a click.
Chapter 87 Miss Symons Assumes Authority
She secretly felt relieved and was about to enter.
“Isabe, Mr. Shaffer said no one was allowed to enter his office.” Selena
suddenly spoke up.
Isabe stopped walking and asked with a smile, “Why don’t you call and ask
him?”
Selena was at a loss for words.
Internally, Isabe clicked her tongue, not expecting the woman to have such
a pretentious side to her. The truth was, it felt great.
Then, she took the lunch box from the bodyguard and instructed, “Wait for me
downstairs. I’ll be out soon.”
Chapter 87 Miss Symons Assumes Authority
“Sure.”
When the two bodyguards left, everyone in the secretarial office was baffled.
Those two were the bodyguards Seth usually had with him, but Isabe could
actuallymand them.
Noticing the meaning behind their expressions, Isabe found it amusing and
entered Seth’s office with the lunch box.
Once the door closed, she sighed heavily and repeatedly patted her chest. It
was hard to assume authority because the slightest slip-up could expose
her.
She looked at the clock and guessed Seth must be back soon, so she took
out the food from the thermos lunch box.

When we meetter, I must restrain my temper and muddle throughst
night’s events. I can’t offend him anymore. Isabe arranged the food while
mentally preparing herself.
About twenty minutester, there was still no movement from outside.
Isabe was hungry and sighed at the food on the table.
“Miss Shaffer, you can’t go in there. Mr. Shaffer isn’t inside.”
“I’m just here to get his signature or a stamp if he’s unavable. Why are you
guys making such a huge fuss?”
