Chapter 1357 The Motionless Match (1)

"This ..."

The receptionist stammered, her voice full of hesitation.

A bad premonition welled up in Joanne's heart, but she still maintained her composure and asked without moving, "What's wrong?"

"Mrs. ..."

The receptionist bit her lip, wanting to speak.

Joanne pretended that she didn't see the receptionist's embarrassment, maintaining her signature smile, "If there's nothing else, I'll go up first."

She turned around and walked briskly towards the president's special elevator, verified her fingerprint, and the elevator doors opened in response, taking her straight to the top floor.

The front desk's stammering and hesitation made Joanne think a lot uncontrollably.

Hopefully, it was all just her thinking too much.

"Ding!"

The elevator door opens on the top floor and Joanne steps out just in time to watch Daisy.

Daisy froze for a moment, staring at Joanne unexpectedly, "Ma'am, why are you ... you here?"

Joanne met Daisy's line of sight and kept her composure, not answering but asking, "Daisy, did something happen? You all reacted strangely when you saw me today, why?"

Joanne confessed to Daisy because she was certain that Daisy would tell her the truth.

"Madam, don't think too much." Daisy soothed Joanne, and after struggling for a while, she still said truthfully, "It's that something happened in the company. In order not to let you worry, Mr. Lambert specially explained that if you come to the company, don't let you know."

Joanne not only did not settle down, a heart instead instantly hung up, and pursued,"What happened to the company?"

"Now that it's almost settled, I dared to tell you." Daisy still didn't dare to be too specific and excused herself, "Specifically, it's better to let Mr. Lambert talk to you. However, Mr. Lambert has temporarily called a meeting, and it will be a while before it's over. Ma'am, you go into the office first and wait."

"Good."

Joanne entered Brian's office familiarly, put down her lunch and carefully surveyed the place.

She remembered being deeply shocked the first time she came.

Not only because of the location and the low price, but also because when she stood here, she could feel the calm and wise kingly aura of Brian.

This mansion, is Brian's empire.

Here he swung around and pointed to the business empire he had carved out with his own hands.

When Brian hadn't yet confessed his feelings to her, Joanne had once wondered how she could forget Brian.

However, as she stood here, she couldn't think of any reason to forget Brian.

Two years have passed and everything remains the same.

If one were to say that there had been a slight change, it would only be that Brian's desk had two more photos on it one of them together, and the other, a recent photo of the two little ones.

The photo was here, did it mean that Brian was still thinking of her and the two little ones even when he was working?

Joanne had to admit that this thought, made her heart settle down quite a bit.

Just at this time, the office door opened and Brian's voice came in, which, among other things, was mixed with a female voice-

"Compile a copy of today's minutes for me. Notify down the line that the afternoon meeting will be held as usual."

Brian was concise and concise, and every word and sentence had the aura of a king who could not be questioned.

"Okay." Aunt Nyla's voice was meek and professional, "Mr. Lambert, do you need anything else?"

"No." Brian said coldly, "Go out."

Aunt Nyla didn't go out, her eyes innocently and imploringly looked at Brian, her voice delicate and thin,"Mr. Lambert, in fact,...."

It was self-evident what she was trying to imply with a voice like that.

"Anything else, go find Daisy," Brian interrupted Aunt Nyla without mercy, "Daisy is your immediate supervisor, if there's any problem, you should reflect it to her first."

After saying that, Brian went straight back to his office.

Aunt Nyla was unwilling, stepping on her thin high heels to keep up with Brian's pace,"Mr. Lambert, actually I ..."

Turning through the entrance hall, Joanne's silhouette was caught off guard in the eyes of the two men.

Obviously, Brian and Aunt Nyla did not expect Joanne to be here.

Brian narrowed his eyes, Aunt Nyla's face turned white, and she bowed towards Joanne,"Madam, I'm sorry!" After saying that, she panicked and jogged away from the office.

Joanne slowly pondered over Aunt Nyla's "sorry".

Aunt Nyla could have left as if nothing had happened, naturally.

She said "sorry" to Joanne like a frightened little white rabbit, not only succeeded in adding drama to herself, but also triggered Joanne a deep thought.

Joanne came to a conclusion this opponent, Aunt Nyla, was no simpler than Rosalyn.

Brian had already walked to Joanne, looking at her with a good look, "Didn't you say you don't have time to care about me, not coming?"

Joanne looked at the direction Aunt Nyla left and said if she had a point, "If I don't come, I won't be able to see this play."

"..." Brian seemed to have a headache and rubbed his temples.

Joanne was not in a hurry and told Brian in an outsider's tone, "This girl likes you."

Her tone sounded like she was encouraging Brian to pursue a good girl.

Brian looked at Joanne fixedly, "Jealous?"

"... "Joanne didn't expect Brian to be in the mood to joke, her complexion became serious and she grabbed Brian's tie, "Do you like her?"

Brian did not hesitate to kiss Joanne on the lips, "I like you."

Same old story, and lines that have nothing new to say.

Despite this, Joanne's heart was still sweet for a moment.

However, she didn't let go of Brian and swung her fist, stubbornly threatening, "Don't think you can muddle through like this."

Brian leaned his back against the desk, pondered for a moment, and slowly said, "The new secretary, the daughter of an Uncle Shiyi, is put here with me for exercise. I'll ask Daisy to find a way to transfer her to Gavin's office."

The person who can let Brian call him "Uncle Shi" should have an extraordinary relationship with his father.

He just transferred Aunt Nyla to Gavin's office without any reason, and on Uncle Shih's side, he should not be able to account for it.

What's more, Aunt Nyla hasn't done anything.

Joanne shook her head, "There's no need to tune it."

Brian raised his eyebrows, "You don't mind?"

Joanne spread her hands and seriously emphasized, "I trust you, so, for the time being, I don't mind. There is another reason that ... Gavin's office shouldn't need so many people."

Brian was puzzled, "Huh?"

Joanne circled Brian's neck and looked at him helplessly and sweetly, "There are so many people who like you, I can't possibly ask you to transfer every single one of them to Gavin's office, right? Wendy will hate me to death."

Brian smiled, his forehead against Joanne's, "Say it, why did you come to me?"

Joanne shook the bento box in her hand, "I made congee for Aiden and Romy, and prepared lunch for you on the way. It's still hot, eat it quickly."

She opened the bento box and the aroma of food instantly wafted throughout the office.

Brian rolled up his sleeves, not in a hurry to eat, and looked at Joanne slyly, "Why aren't you helping me prepare lunch, and helping Aiden and Romy make congee in the meantime?"

"Childish!" Joanne spat, "Are you sure you want to fight over such an unimportant primary and secondary relationship?"

"If this was someone else's row, I could not mind." Brian raised his eyebrows and stubbornly looked at Joanne, "But if you rowed it, no."

"..." Joanne breathlessly scooped a spoonful of soup and fed it to Brian, "Big bone soup, taste howit tastes."

Brian nodded, "Not bad."

"Well, it's made with the big bones left over from the congee for Aiden and Romy, so of course it tastes good! If you like it, drink more."

Without warning, Joanne gave Brian another blow.

Brian put down his chopsticks, narrowed his eyes and looked at Joanne dangerously, "I don't think I need to wait until the evening, I can clean you up now."

Joanne was still a bit scared, dodging while reminding Brian,"Stop it, you have a meeting later!"

Brian didn't intend to really do anything to Joanne, scaring her so he could call it quits, re-taking his chopsticks and eating with Joanne.

After the two of them finished eating, Daisy happened to come in and smelled the residual fragrance in the air and said with a yearning face, ''Ma'am, you're a gourmet, aren't you? How do you make all these dishes? I also want to try it!"

Joanne was happy to do so, "I'll go back and send you the practice."

"Yeah, thanks!"

Daisy puts down her paperwork and stops by to help collect the bento boxes and take them to the pantry to be washed.

Aunt Nyla was also in the pantry, looking out, looking thoughtful.

Daisy purposely said, "I deeply suspect that our Mr. Lambert was conquered by Madam's handiwork!"

Aunt Nyla suddenly turned back and looked at Daisy curiously, "What does it mean?"

"Madam brought lunch over to Mr. Lambert today, and the office smells like it's getting yummy yay!" Daisy exclaimed, "As the saying goes, to capture a man's heart, you have to capture a man's stomach first it really makes sense."

Aunt Nyla glanced at the bento box and lowered his head thoughtfully.

Inside the office, Brian had already started to handle his work.

Joanne brewed for a moment and tried her best to ask in a calm tone, "Brian, is something wrong with the company?"

Brian looked at Joanne,"Who told you that?"

"I accidentally heard it." Joanne wasn't sold on Daisy and stubbornly asked, "What the hell happened? Are you going to keep hiding it from me?"

"Rowdy made some small moves, it's been taken care of." Brian patted Joanne's head, "Don't worry."

"..." Joanne was still more or less skeptical, "Is it really okay?"

"You 'heard' that something happened to the company, and you didn't 'hear' that it was resolved?" Brian looks like he's smiling, "Next time when you listen to others, remember to finish your words."

Joanne then reacted to the fact that Brian had already guessed who she was covering for.

The more she did, the less she could betray Daisy!

She nodded and gagged in a serious manner, "Okay, I hear you!"
