Seeing her wake up, Jaydon breathed a sigh of relief and teased, “I knew you wouldn’t go down that easily. The phone was ringing for so long. Didn’t you hear it?”
“Sorry, my bad.” Alita got up, swayed to the desk, and sat down.
Jaydon, looking pleased, crossed his arms and chuckled. “Alita, admit it. What’s in the lounge hurts your heart, right? You have times when you can’t bear it, get angry, or want to cry. Just admit it. It’s not embarrassing.”
Alita gave a cold smile, took out her medicine from a drawer, and swallowed them with water. She casually said, “Everyone has emotions. I’m no exception. I might feel heartache, sadness, or want to cry. But today isn’t the case. You’re overthinking. Don’t flatter yourself.”
Jaydon looked embarrassed. ‘Damn, I lost again,’ he thought.
“Mr. Lewis, grab a seat if you’re gonna oversee my work. Right now, it looks like you’re giving me a work update. It wouldn’t be good if someone saw us like this,” Alita said and opened a file. She deliberately made sarcastic remarks to get Jaydon to leave.
Jaydon was furious and sneered, “Fine, go ahead with your work. But remember, don’t make mistakes.” His last few words were soft and gentle, sending shivers down Alita’s spine.
Restraining the urge to slam the door, he appeared composed and walked back to his office.

After Jaydon left, Alita slumped in her chair, looking up at the ceiling and revealing a bitter smile.
During the meeting, Jaydon intentionally spilled coffee on the documents and asked Alita to redo them within. three minutes. But she had already anticipated all of this. She produced a new one and placed it beside him respectfully. “Mr. Lewis, I’ve prepared many. Spill as many cups of coffee as you wart
Jaydon, your trick is outdated,‘ she thought.
During lunch, an attractive female celebrity showed up at the company to have lunch with Jaydon. He intentionally flirted with her near the elevator just as Alita came out of her office. He wanted Alita to notice.
Alita, however, took a picture of them and said, “Perfect! My Twitter needs some updates, and Mike would probably enjoy this.” She smiled kindly at him.
“You only know to tell Grandpa when you can’t win my love, huh? Alita, poor you.” Jaydon’s green eyes turned cold as he tightened his grip on the waist of the celebrity.
“Yeah, that sounds like a nice plan.” Alita suddenly understood and grinned. She directly sent this photo to Mike, along with the restaurant address where Jaydon and the female celebrity were dining. Since Jaydon said she would do so, she wouldn’t hesitate.
Receiving the message, Mike was furious. Usually, he turned a blind eye, but today, Alita sent the photo. He immediately understood the implied meaning.
