Chapter 647

I frowned at her, and almost half a minute passed before I said to her wryly, "Miss Cinny, I didn’t know why you worked as a waitress before this, but now I d o. Your father wouldn’t be as foolish as you are, and he must have a clear understanding of your foolishness when he asked you to work as a waitress. He would have been ruined if he had let you work a job related t o his career.”

"You!" Fiona was so angry that her neck turned red, and she could not come up with anything to rebut what I said.

Moreover, both her brothers had made the wise decision to leave. She had no assistants now. It would be useless for her to continue pestering me now since she would be the one who ended up humiliated.

I circled past her and walked into the restaurant.

Fiona did not bother me again until when the workday ended, but I was still in a pretty bad mood for the entire day. I hated it when people interrupted my peaceful life.

I was about to end my day at work and go home when Keith appeared at my office door.

"Miss Lane, can we talk in private?" he asked with a

solemn expression on his face.

I pursed my lips together and nodded. "Yes."

Keith walked into the office and sat down in a chair while I got up and poured him a glass of water before sitting down in front of him again. "What did you want to talk to me about, Assistant Lang?"

He pursed his lips together and said, "President Grant wants to see you."

I frowned and said, "Assistant Lang, please inform President Grant that I'm afraid I won’t have time to talk to him because I need to pick up my kid from kindergarten."

Keith sighed softly. "You know that I must complete the tasks that President Grant gives me."

What he implied was that he would not give up until I said yes.

I felt as if I had no choice. I asked, "Where is he?"

"At the entrance."

I nodded and walked back to my office table.

He thought I was still against it and said, "Miss Lane, all President Grant wants is to see you."

I tugged the corner of my lips upward. "Assistant

Lane, I'm preparing to clock out of work. I'll go downstairs and meet him once I've finished packing m y things, alright?"

He seemed momentarily stunned but not the slightest bit embarrassed as he said stoically, "In that case, I'll wait for you here.”

I said wryly, "As you wish."

It seemed that a person's way of thinking would change and become similar to the person they spent a lot of time with. Keith had worked for Theo for so long that his way of doing things was becoming more and more like Theo's.

I took my bag and walked out of the office after I finished packing.

Keith walked close behind me as if worried I would run away halfway.

When I walked out of the restaurant, I saw a Rolls-Royce parked outside.

The car door was already open. I paused momentarily, and when Keith noticed my hesitation, he said, "Miss Lane, you should get in. President Grant has been waiting for a long time."

Well, I did not ask him to wait!

The man sat with his head lowered as he carefully read a document, his movements elegant and reserved. I had a brooding look on my face as I got into the car and closed the door before calmly saying, "The school day is almost ending at the kindergarten.”

By that, I meant, 'Spit out whatever you have to tell me.

He closed the document he held and gazed at me before saying calmly, "I'll go pick him up with you. We can have dinner together."

I thought to myself that with our current relationship, we needed to be more polite and amicable to each other. He was a guest here and also someone I had to serve. Thus, I had to treat him how I usually treated m y customers.

I pursed my lips together and said, "Let’s not bring the kid along."

Theo frowned. "Then, what’s going to happen to the kid?"

"I'll ask my boss to take over pick-up duty," I said as I got my phone out to text Fred.

His eyes narrowed together as an icy aura emanated from him.

Then, he brought me to a steakhouse.
