Isabella stood in the corridor, clutching her purse, and took a deep breath of fresh air
before making her way to the front door where Jordan was waiting. She greeted him
with a smile, “Good evening.”
Jordan replied, “Good evening.”
Without further conversation, Isabella squinted as she attempted to enter her
password, but failed multiple times. Growing anxious, she knocked on the door
repeatedly and muttered under her breath.
Concerned, Jordan gulped and carefully grabbed her sleeve, pressing her fingerprint
onto the scanner.
Beep.
The door opened, and Isabella giggled, patting the door, “Good boy…” With that, she
promptly took off her shoes and entered the house.
Observing her condition, Jordan hesitated for a moment before deciding to call Seth,

Five minutes later, Isabella sat on the couch, looking at the man who had suddenly
appeared before her. Her face was flushed, and she kept opening and closing her
mouth like a goldfish, appearing rather foolish.
Detecting the strong scent of alcohol, Seth furrowed his brows. Nonchalantly, he
removed his coat and attempted to bypass the peculiar sight on the couch to go
straight to his room. However, Isabella unexpectedly stretched out her foot, blocking
his path.

Seth’s expression darkened, and he coldly remarked, “Stop pretending to be drunk.”
Isabella stood up and smacked him on the back of his head. Stunned, he stared at her,
completely taken aback. She simply sat back down, her expression serious as she
pursed her lips. “I don’t know what’s wrong with you. Is this your first day at work? Don’t
you know how to greet people?”

Seth questioned, “What on earth are you talking about?” His brain felt like it had
short-circuited. He could have stayed at the villa tonight, but he suddenly thought of
this woman’s first day at work and wanted to inquire about the specifics, only to find
himself in this bizarre situation.
Isabella felt that this man was being unreasonable. With a sigh, she reached out and
grabbed his tie, pulling it forcefully.
Caught off guard, Seth, who was standing in front of her, was pulled towards her. Just
in time, he bent his knee and knelt on the couch beside her.
Their eyes met, and their breaths intertwined. His body tensed slightly, his gaze fixated
on the woman’s lips. Although there’s a hint of alcohol, I can still taste them…
“Call me the president of the company!” Isabella exclaimed, stunning Seth. The
emotions that had just arisen were instantly doused with a bucket of cold water.
His mouth twitched. “What?”
Isabella toyed with his tie, giggling foolishly for a while. She seemed to recall something

amusing and pulled him closer to her. They were in close proximity, and he could hear
her breathing.
She leaned in, resting her forehead on his shoulder, and whispered, emphasizing each
word, “I, Isabella Symons, am the President of Nemotors!”
Her tone was filled with pride, and Seth’s forehead twitched. This woman is indeed
coveting my… position! He lowered his head, gazing at the giggling woman, and asked
coldly, “Are you enjoying being the president?”
Isabella pouted and, as if she suddenly remembered something, sighed, releasing his
tie. Seth raised an eyebrow, suspecting that she must have encountered some
difficulties and was likely to complain to him. Thus, he removed his tie and sat beside
her.
Isabella, who had been quite friendly with him moments ago, suddenly moved away,
turning her back to him and gazing at the moon outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
She opened her mouth, murmuring something.
Composing himself, Seth leaned in to eavesdrop. Isabella was serious, reciting, “Dear

colleagues and shareholders, I am Isabella Symons… I am deeply grateful for your trust.
In the future…”
After listening for a while, he finally understood that she was rehearsing her
inauguration speech. He raised a hand to his forehead, unable to suppress a chuckle.
Interrupted by the laughter, she became displeased. “Be serious!”
Seth was speechless and ceased laughing for a moment. “Do you want to have an
inauguration ceremony?”
Isabella did not respond. She turned her head and continued expressing her
inauguration speech to the moon. Suddenly, she looked at him and asked earnestly,
“Seth, do you think my dad would be proud if he knew?”
Although bothered by the use of his first name, he couldn’t resist teasing her. “You’ve
never met your dad. Why do you have so many ideas?”
For a moment, she was stunned, then she suddenly remembered and slapped her
forehead. “Right, I’ve never met my dad.” After uttering those words, she turned her

head again and continued to
Observing her profile, Seth suddenly felt a twinge of discomfort. Everyone possessed a
sense of compassion, and he was no exception. After spending five years with Isabella,
he had gained some insight into her family background. Her father was unknown, her
mother was mentally ill, and she had essentially grown up relying on welfare.
With this in mind, he glanced at her profile. “Does having an inauguration ceremony
bring honor to your family?”
Isabella caught onto the key point and slowly turned her head. “I suppose so.”
