behind her back as she took several deep breaths.

seemed to have lightened. Perhaps she was merely experiencing the
cebo effect as she felt that even the air seemed cleaner.
Isabe ced her hands on it and stared at the chair where Seth often sat
as she approached the long, ck desk.

Now that no one was around, Seth wouldn’t randomly check the office

Finally, she ced her hands on the chair, turned around, sat on it, and gazed
at the front with her back straightened.

So, this is what it feels like to be the chairman and president.

luxurious… At least it would be entirely hers.
Just then, she felt as if a clot in her mind had suddenly dissipated as she
leaned back in the chair, feeling her whole body boiling with excitement.

A cool and crisp voice came out of nowhere.
Isabe shivered, abruptly jerked to her feet, and was momentarily unsure
which direction to look at.

Isabe widened her eyes, feeling quite stiff as she turned around to meet
the man’s scrutinizing gaze.
“I didn’t realize that you would harbor such big ambitions.”
He was only wearing an unbuttoned shirt, which was loosely draped over his
body as he leaned against the door frame and fixed his gaze on Isabe.
Isabe swallowed hard as she took a deep breath. “Everyone has dreams.
Isn’t that allowed?”
“Can you distinguish between a dream and a daydream?” Seth snorted
coldly, his gaze falling on the hand Isabe used to grip the chair.
Isabe quickly withdrew her hand while scooting to the side. “Who knows if it
might be a reality one day?”

Seth chuckled and approached her slowly before looking down at the
woman wearing sunsses before him. “Shaffer Group took 30 years to
reach its current scale. So, you should have a n, even if it’s a dream.”
An unconvinced Isabe clenched her fist. “You were born with a silver spoon.
Are you going to block others from a chance to acquire high status because
of that?”
“It seems that you’ve be foolish after dreaming so recklessly.” Seth’s
gaze turned cold. Soon, he started to find her sunsses somewhat
obstructive. Thus, he couldn’t resist reaching out to take them off.
Isabe was slightly surprised but quickly swatted Seth’s hand aside.
“How dare you!” Seth was surprised as he didn’t expect her to attack him.

Isabe held onto her sunsses as she dodged to the side and argued,
“You were the one who made the first move.”
Seth licked his lips, suppressing his anger. “Come here!”
Isabe held onto her sses and took a step back. “Mr. Shaffer, I’ve already’
sorted things out. I can leave now.”
“Remove your sses, or the deal is off,” Seth uttered with pursed lips as he
gazed intensely at her.

seeing the disfigured half of her face.

Fine, she’d take them off.
She took the sses off as she heaved a long sigh.
“Wait.” Seth suddenly raised his hand. “Don’t take them off. I can imagine how
ugly the other half of your face is just by looking at the lower part.”
Isabe was rendered speechless.
Damn. You really know how to pick your words.

“You sure have a lot of conditions. Are you nning tomit murder or

Isabe felt guilty as she realized that what she was about to do wasn’t

“Being prepared is being safe. Imperia is a big ce. I never know when I
might offend someone.”
“Just get lost,” Seth uttered as he found her presence with those sunsses
irritating. Then, he raised his hand and grumbled, “Your presence is an
annoyance to me.”

slight bow.
“Are you nning to start your own business?” Seth suddenly inquired.
Isabe had her back to him as she grabbed the doorknob and said
cautiously, “Everyone whoes to Imperia has that dream.”
Seth replied coldly instead of taunting her, “Then, go ahead and pursue your
dream. Make sure to stay out of trouble.”
Isabe pursed her lips, opened the door, and walked out with a determined
glint in her eyes.
