Though there were some conflicts between the two groups, all the problems were quickly resolved. At
the end of the day, the two groups reached a pleasant consensus.
Marco cleared his throat to grab Loraine’s attention, and when she looked at him, he asked her, “Are
you free tonight?”
“No, I’m busy,” Loraine replied.
Marco kept quiet for a moment and then said in a low voice, “The partnership is going well. It’s only
natural for us to have dinner together, isn’t it?”
A fake smile appeared on Loraine’s face.
“Aren’t there many beautiful secretaries around you? From your work to your personal Life, they
manage everything perfectly for you. So, why not just enjoy their services?”

“If only that’s truly the case,” Loraine said dismissively. She couldn’t help but recall all the time that
Marco had spent pestering her lately.
“What?” Carl asked in confusion.

Marco understood exactly what she meant. “Of course, you’re the only exception, Loraine.”
She was the only one he kept pestering and trying to talk to.
His statement made Loraine feel a little awkward.
His romantic words aimed at capturing her heart were getting more and more undisguised.
She was scared that he would say something inappropriate again, so she quickly said to him, “I have
something to deal with at the company, so
