Chapter 258: Was He That Scary?
Logan briefly exchanged greetings with the design director who walked out and then walked in.
“Ms. Donovan, Mr. Sean has prepared lunch and invites you to dine in his office,” said Logan respectfully.
Claire raised her hand and held her forehead. They had always stayed together
at home intimately. How come Sean didn’t even spare her lunch in the company?
Other people’s relationships were all about the woman sticking to the man, but it was another case when it came to hers.
“Fine,” replied Claire.
She stuck the pen in her hand into the pen container, stood up, and stretched lazily. Bringing nothing with her, she walked towards the elevator with Logan.
In the elevator, Logan laughed and said, “Ms. Donovan, Mr. Sean asked me to buy some snacks and fruits for you, but I don’t really know your tastes. Could you open a back door for me and just tell me what you like to eat?”
It’s different in the company from being at home.
At home, Claire couldn’t stop eating when she was idle, feeling that she couldn’t let her mouth be lonely. But it was different when she was in the company.
Anyway, she was the boss. If she kept eating all the time in the office, what would the employees think?

As the saying goes, when the above behaves wrongly, the below will do the same. She didn’t want to take the wrong lead.
“Don’t bother. I’m so busy at the office that I don’t have time to eat snacks,” replied Claire.
With that, she glanced at Logan and smiled, adding, “You don’t have to take everything Mr. Sean says to heart.”
“I dare not!” Logan raised a hand and scratched the back of his head, saying, ” Mr. Sean’s word is imperial edict. Any disobedience would cause disastrous
results.”
Furrowing her brows, Claire asked, “Is he that scary?”
“Of course!” Logan said without thinking, “Ms. Donovan, you don’t know about it. If we didn’t carry out what Mr. Sean said, it’s a minor penalty in terms of salary and bonus deduction and a major penalty in terms of outright dismissal! It’s been hard for me to get to this position today, and I don’t want to be fired just because of a trifle.”
Claire raised her hand and stroked her chin, seemingly thinking about something.
Logan thought she didn’t believe him, continuing, “Mr. Sean is decisive and never shows any mercy. Once, a member of the branch Vanderbilt family was sent out to Sliton by Mr. Sean because he did something wrong. Ms. Donovan, you should know how poor Sliton is. It’s a place where birds don’t even shit. That young man lost a huge amount of weight after he stayed there for a year When he came back, he cried that he didn’t want to go there anymore. But in
the end, Mr. Sean still forced him to go there. Mr. Sean treated people of the Vanderbilt family like this, not to mention us, the humble staff.”This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Claire furrowed her brows tightly, then nodded vigorously, remarking, “It
seems that I’m too kind to my staff, no wonder they are usually playful with me. It turns out that I’m not ruthless enough!”
Logan was rendered speechless.
Did his words make Claire introspect?
How could it be?
They had already had a devil boss like Sean. If Claire changed into that kind of boss, then they would live a miserable life…
The boss and the boss’s wife combined, that’s double the torture!
At this moment, the elevator door opened. Logan rushed out, saying, “Ms. Donovan, Mr. Sean is in his office. Get yourself in.”
Claire found that his face was a little pale and asked worriedly, “Logan, you don’t look good. Are you sick?”
“No.” Logan waved his hand repeatedly, saying, “I’m just hungry and I’m going to get something to eat. Ms. Donovan, have a pleasant lunch with Mr. Sean.”
Claire wasn’t sure whether it would be a pleasant one, but she was going to have a good talk with Sean.
It was the first time Claire had ever been in the office of the Paragon Group’s president.
Recalling the time in Silverton, Claire couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“Sir, why does your office here look similar to the one in Silverton?”
Chapter 258: Was He That Scary?
Sean looked around and laughed helplessly, retorting, “Obviously this one is twice as big as that in Silverton.”
“Is it?”
Claire had nothing to do and wandered around. It indeed looked a lot bigger than the office over at Silverton, with two sets of sofas, an audio–visual room, and an even more luxurious and extravagant lounge.
She walked to the sofa next to Sean and sat down, holding up Sean’s jaw gently and saying, “Sir, your office is well–equipped, even with a kitchenette. Even if you don’t go home, you can stay here for ten days and a half, right?”
Sean used to spend half of his time in the office at Ascalon, but he sensed that Claire was playing tricks with him. So he furrowed his brows and asked, “So what?”
Claire chuckled and pinched his handsome face, saying, “So if we fight in the future, you can live in the office, and I don’t have to worry about it.”
Sean was rendered speechless.
It seemed that his intuition was right!
“Heartless girl!”
Sean gave her an unhappy stare and complained, “We’re not even married yet, but you’re thinking about kicking me out of the house?”
“Take it easy! I’m just taking precautionary measures!”
Claire pursed her lips and smiled, bending down to arrange the dishes on the

Her and Sean’s tastes were different. She loved sweet, sweet and sour, as well as spicy food, while Sean liked the light ones, which Claire thought bland and tasteless, but Mrs. Vanderbilt said they were nourishing.
“These are for you. I don’t like them.”
“Claire…” Sean looked at the several dishes in front of Claire and his
expression darkened as he said, “I found that you have heavy tastes.”
“What?”
Claire looked down at the dishes in front of her and suddenly showed a wry arc at the corners of her mouth. She laughed out loud and said, “Yeah, I have heavy tastes!”
“Well.”
Sean nudged the regimen soup to Claire and brought the corn pancake in front of himself, saying, “Eat less heavy flavored food. It’s not good for your
stomach.”
Claire blinked, suddenly pursed her lips, and smiled sweetly, saying, “Sir, I like you.”
“What?”
The sudden confession stunned Sean for a moment. As he raised his head to
look at Claire, her dark brown eyes narrowed slightly like a fox’s.
He then recalled their conversation and suddenly understood.
“Am I that type?”

He then recalled their conversation and suddenly understood.
“Am I that type?”
Claire covered her stomach and burst into laughter, uttering, “Sir, don’t
look at me like that…”
Sean gritted his teeth hard and suddenly reached out to yank her wrist, forcibly dragging her up from the sofa onto his lap.
Seeing that she still couldn’t stop laughing, he tickled her waist and asked,
“Is it funny?”
“Not funny, not funny.”
Claire grabbed his hand immediately, pursed her mouth in a grievance, and surrendered, “I was wrong, Sir.”
Sean lowered his head and punitively bit on her red lips, saying, “Eat properly. Don’t make a scene!”
“I’m not making a scene,” retorted Claire,
She got up from his lap and was about to go back to her seat, but was pulled
to Sean’s side as Sean said, “Just sit here.”
