Chapter 37 Conscience
After working for a while, Mr. Smith called her through the internal phone. Isabe looked at Rachel,
who was quiet on the sofa. She got up and walked over, squatted down to look at her, and asked softly,
"aunt is going out. Are you ying here or going with aunt?"
Rachel blinked her eyes, turned and got off from the sofa, grabbing at her clothes.
Isabeughed, and then touched her head,"Alright, let''s go together."
Holding her small hand, she went to the executive office. Mr. Smith looked at her in confusion, "This
girl?"
"I''m sorry Mr. Smith, this is my friend''s child …" Isabe narrated Rachel''s situation to him.
Mr. Smith nodded understandably, then waved her to sit down and said, "the branch of Polygon Group
here has been basicallypleted and will begin to operate immediately. The representative of their
What? How are they so fast?
She took a pause, pretending nothing had happened. "Do you know who wille?"
The CEO would note for a branch office.
Mr. Smith smiled unnecessarily, "it should be just some department managers, so I let you go. If there
are any big ones, I''ll go by myself. It''s not a big deal. Just invite them to meal at noon."
Meal?
Isn''t that a social intercourse? It was fine if there were not many people, but if there were more, they
would drink definitely. Besides, she has Rachel.
"Mr. Smith...Um…" She looked down at Rachel with a little difficulty, then said in a conflict. " May I
arrange some people from my department to treat him?"
Mr. Smith looked at her, then looked at Rachel’s cute face, thinking about it and nodded, "That''s fine,
you can make the arrangements. You must treat them well."
Isabe slightly heaved a sigh of relief, and then asked with a smile"Alright." : "Then, when will they
arrive?"
Mr. Smith turned and look outside the window and said faintly, "It should be around this time. It''s not far
away, it''s just across the street. It won''t take a few minutes.
"…"
Isabe''s body stiffened, and her mind was a bit muddled. “Where is it? On the other side? She thought
she had heard something wrong, and she stared at Mr. Smith nkly.
She looked at the building slowly, which is across the street.
Their branch was located in that building?
Mr. Smith didn''t notice her. He smiled, walked to the window, pointed to the same floor opposite and
said, "it''s a coincidence that the Polygon Group branch is on the same floor opposite. With better eyes,
I should still be able to see them. However, my myopia can''t see anything."
Isabe''s eyes followed him, her smile extremely stiffed, and her eyes deep andplex.
Did Christian do this on purpose or not?
Did the call he madest night have anything to do with it?
"Alright, you can make the arrangements first." Mr. Smith waved to her.
"Yes." Isabe recovered her emotions and pulled Rachel away from the executive office.
Back to her office, she stood by the window and looked at the building opposite with an absent-minded

expression.
All of a sudden,the curtain of the room facing her office moved up slowly. In front of the huge French
window, a slender and upright figure was sopletely exposed in her field of vision, like an actor
under the curtain in the center of the stage, which made her feel very unreal.
She shed back and blinked her eyes. After confirming that he was not an illusion, she
subconsciously bit her lips.
Now, it was certain that the man did it on purpose.
Christian stood there still. His expression was a little vague, but the only thing he could be sure was
that he was looking at her, and seemed to know where her office was long ago.
Isabe became more and more worried. She picked up her phone and called him without hesitation.
The bell rang for a few seconds. She saw clearly that the man took out his mobile phone from his
pocket and put it in his ear. His face was still facing her direction.
"Hello." A deep, calm voice sounded.
"Christian, what do you mean?" Isabe asked madly.
"What are you talking about?"
"Don''t ask me while you already knew the answer. Why did you put the branch here? Don''t fucking tell
me it''s just a coincidence."
Hearing her curse, Christian frowned, but still said calmly, "It''s not a coincidence. It''s just a wise choice.
It''s all thanks to the time I went to yourpany then I found the location is really good, and the
environment is also nice."
"…"
Isabe choked and gnashed her teeth. "What do you want, Christian? We''re divorced. Can you stop
disturbing my peaceful life?"
He didn’t answer at once, then a low and hoarseugh sounded, "Because I am your ex-husband, you
feel that I do everything with ulterior motives. Isabe, are you too narcissistic or … have a guilty
conscience?"
Thest few words, he deliberately slowed down, and his deep and hoarse voice became fascinating,
which made Isabe''s heart to skip a beat.
If Christian were here, he would definitely see her ck face.
Holding her phone tightly, she gritted her teeth and kept silent for a while. After she calmed down, she
said in a cold voice, "Since you don''t have any ulterior motives, then don’t eat your words.
Without waiting for his response, she hung up the phone and left with a re at him.
Christian, who was standing there, put down his mobile phone, with his eyes darker.
Someone knocked on the door at this moment.
Lexie walked in, "Christian, your mother called and asked us to go back for dinner."
"You can go. I still have something to do at noon. Tell her that I''ll be back in the evening.” Christian said
lightly without turning around.
Lexie’s face changed slightly, "What is it? Do you need help? "
"No. You go back first."
"…"
Lexie looked at him and already guessed something. She felt extremely ufortable immediately.
Meta Technology was across the street. Did he still miss that woman?
"I''ll go back then." Lexie Tightened her fingers and didn''t ask more, a strange light shed past her
eyes.
……..
Sitting beside theputer. Isabe was still thinking what had just happened, with her heart in a
mess.
Suddenly, she felt someone grabbing her clothes. She returned to her mind, lowered her head. She
saw Rachel standing in front of her and looking at her. It seemed that something was wrong.
"What''s wrong?" She asked softly.
Rachel pursed her lips and frowned. She looks like ufortable, then she started to take off her
pants
Isabe was surprised for a moment when she saw her actions. Suddenly, a glint shed across her
eyes. "Do you want to go pee?"
Rachel shook her head.
Isabe was confused, then she asked, "Poo—poo?"
Finally Rachel nodded.
Isabe was amused by her. She picked her up and walked out of the office and hurried to the
bathroom.
While she was waiting inside, the front desk staff called her suddenly. "Mrs. Jones, the representatives
of the Polygon Grouppany has arrived."
