Chapter 154 You Should Have One As Soon As Possible
Just as she was lost in thought, Isabe felt her clothes being tugged. Coming back her senses, she
lowered her head and saw a cute and young face. Then she asked gently, "Rachel, what''s the matter?"
Looking at her, the little girl held her toy without saying a word.
Then Isabe asked again, "Wanna pee?"
Seeing her cutely nod her head, Isabe smiled immediately, "I''ll take you to the bathroom. Let''s go."
Then she took Rachel out of her office. As they passed by the her colleagues, the little girl attracted a
lot attention, who all greeted Rachel.
Before they arrived at the bathroom, John suddenly walked in and said, "Miss Jones, Polygon is
inviting all members of our department to have a dinner party tomorrow night."
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole department was instantly in an uproar.
"Polygon Group? Isn''t this like a blind date?" Some young men teased, "If only there were pretty girls."
Hearing this, some girls immediately rolled their eyes, "Don''t all of you already have girlfriends? You
can''t be so greedy... But I wish there could be some handsome guys, like Mr. Miller."
The corner of Isabe''s mouth twitched. Ignoring the discussions, she calmly asked John, "When did
this happen?"
"Just now. Their administrative department send me a message." John passed his phone to her.
Thinking for a second without any expression on face, she looked at her subordinates and asked: "Do
you guys have the time?"
Suchpany activities were verymon, so there was nothing strange. Furthermore, Polygon was
in much higher level than Benton, so it was their honour to be have such opportunity. Even if she wasn''t
interested, she had to consider for her subordinates.
As she expected, everyone nodded their heads. They just wanted to see how the bigpanies like
Polygon would hold a party.
So Isabe nodded at John straightforwardly, "Alright, tell them we''ll be there right on time."
"Okay." John then turned and left.
Her department bustled with excitement once again.
"Guys, talk about it after work. Now continue working."
After saying that, Isabe walked out while holding Rachel''s hand.
Out of the bathroom, the little girl suddenly stopped.
Seeing this, Isabe lowered her head and asked, "What''s the matter?"
Rachel slowly raised her pinky finger and pointed in a direction.
Isabe looked over, asking: "You wanna y over there?"
That was thepany''s leisure area, which was colourfully decorated and had a lot of spaces.
Thinking that she''d also stayed bored in her office, Isabe smiled, "Alright, let''s go there."
Then she let John bring herptop over, and started to work while sitting on sofa.
Everyone passing by would ask about Rachel.
"Hi, Miss Jones. Is she your daughter?"
"Miss Jones, I''ve no idea that your child are already this big? So cute!"
"..."
Some of her colleagues even went over to touch Rachel''s face, scaring the little girl quite badly. Seeing
this, Isabe was so tired of exining that she even wanted to curse.
In the end, she turned down herptop and waved to the little girl: "Rachel,e over here."
Rachel ran over to her side with a sweet smile and touched her face affectionately.
Isabe''s heart immediately felt being warmed up. She stared at her mouth, then carefully tested her,
"Then, do you like me? If you do... Can you speak it out loud? "
Looking at Isabe with a pair of pure eyes, Rachel lightly bit her hands. She remained silent after a
long while.
Isabe didn''t give up. Her voice became more even gentle as she coaxed: "So you don''t like me,
Rachel?"
Obviously understanding her words, the little girl immediately shook her head.
Feeling overjoyed, Isabe pretended to be wronged, "But I don''t believe you, if only you can say... "
Rachel''s long eyshes fluttered a bit, and her pink lips slowly moved, as if something was to burst out
of her throat.
Isabe immediately stared at her without blinking, nervously yet expectantly.
Was she going to speak?
"Miss Jones."
A voice suddenly sounded in the silent space. It not only scared Isabe, but also scared Rachel
whose body even trembled a bit. She immediately closed her month and fearfully leaned towards
Isabe.
Isabe frowned, then turned to look at the person.
It was a meticulously-dressed woman, who looked around 30 years old. She probably just passed by
and stopped to greet Isabe. Her raised eyebrows made her look a bit unfriendly.
"Miss Cotton, Can I help you?" Isabe smiled, but didn''t stand up.
Heather Cotton, manager of the Marketing department, was known by the wholepany of her strong
working ability. She still hadn''t got married and was a bit mean to the people around her.
Originally, Isabe didn''t have much chances to get along with her, not did she care about what
Heather was like. But recently, she felt Heather''d be very hostile towards her, who always
targeted her at the meetings, and even med her to their superiors. It was like Isabe grab her man
or something.
"Everyone knows you have a cute daughter now. But you don''t have to take her to work everyday,
right? Are you treating here as your home?" Heather smiled coldly.
Hearing this, Isabe wasn''t angry, and just said in a polite and calm voice: "You''ve misunderstood me,
Miss Cotton. She''s a good girl and won''t cause any trouble. I didn''t dy my work as well."
"As a manager, you should be able to hire a nanny, shouldn''t you? If they all bring their kids to the
"You don''t have a child, Miss Cotton, so of course you have no idea how difficult it is to bring up a child.
Children are just too sticky, even nannies are useless. Also, Mr. Smith allowed me to do this." Isabe
replied indifferently, as she gently rubbed Rachel''s head.
For a woman in her thirties who hasn''t been married, let alone have a child, Isabe''s words
undoubtedly hurt Heather''s heart, whose face immediately darkened.
But then, she suddenly thought of something, and mocked, "It''s better not to be born than to be
abandoned. Don''t you think so, Miss Jones?"
Hearing this, Isabe''s face turned cold. Although Heather didn''t know that Rachel wasn''t her child, she
knew that Isabe''d been divorced.
She carried Rachel, took herptop, and walked past her with a faint smile. Her tender face was so

radiant as she said. "If you want a child, you should have one so as soon as possible. It''s dangerous to
be elderly parturient women."
"..."
Before Heather could say anything, Isabe had already walked away.
Standing on the spot, Heather''s eyes was extremely cold.
