Chapter 206
The food delivery arrived, and Isabella went to retrieve it personally, neatly arranging
everything. Seated across from her, Gordon studied her casually and couldn’t resist
reaching out to pinch her face. “All my favorites. You pay quite a bit of attention to me.”
Isabella slapped his hand away, her beautiful eyes widening slightly. “Stop flattering
yourself. I ordered according to my own taste.”
Gordon feigned surprise. “What a coincidence. Even our taste buds match so well.”
Though speechless, she found him amusing and didn’t mind the topic, so she sat down
to eat together. “Cut it out. It’s impossible between us; otherwise, your mother will be
furious.”
Gordon raised his finger, repeatedly saying “No” and added, “My mother may not have
liked you a few days ago, but she won’t in the future.”
Isabella was puzzled. “She changed her mind?”
Leaning forward a little, he whispered, “You’re now the president of a company; how

could my mother not like you?
Isabella understood instantly and laughed. “I got this position out of the blue without a
powerful family backing me up. Your mother isn’t stupid.”
Pouting, he wanted to continue the conversation, but Isabella raised her hand, stopping
the topic. “Let’s eat first. No more talk about your mother, okay?”
He had no choice but to pick up his fork. After tasting a few bites, he tried to feed her
again. Just then, she received another phone call. “Who’s so annoying?” Gordon put
down his fork in frustration.
Picking up her phone, Isabella saw it was the same number as before and answered
with some confusion. “Hello?”
“Miss Symons, we have some more information, and it has just been sent to your
email.”
Puzzled, she wondered, Why didn’t he send it all at once? Was it a two-part
investigation? Nevertheless, she didn’t say much while Jordan appeared as if he

wanted to say something, but he hesitated for several minutes and suddenly hung up,
leaving her in confusion.
After hanging up the phone, she didn’t immediately start bantering with Gordon but
quickly logged into her email on her phone to check her email. It was all the information
about Michael and nothing special.
Gordon snatched her phone away. “What are you doing? We’re eating. Can you focus?”
Isabella shrugged and had to put down her phone.
“Can I take you out for a walk this afternoon?” he asked tentatively.
Isabella shook her head. “No, too much work.”
Gordon was unhappy. “How about going out together tonight?”
Isabella shook her head again. “I have a dinner appointment tonight.”
Gordon took a deep breath. “Such a small company, but so much work.”

Laughing, Isabella looked around and sighed. “I may not even own this small company
in my lifetime.”
Gordon took the opportunity to step forward. “If you’re with me, you can have it right
away.”
She gave him a look and was about to speak when her phone rang again. Gordon
cursed, “What an idiot. Isn’t he annoying?”
Equally helpless, she answered the phone and was somewhat irritated. “Jordan, can
you send all the information at once?”
Jordan paused, then said in a deep voice, “This time, it’s not about the information.”
Isabella was taken aback. “Then—”
“I’m reminding you on behalf of Mr. Shaffer,” Jordan interrupted, his tone serious.
“Today is your first day as the president, and you should pay attention to the image of
the management. It’s inappropriate to behave too intimately with a person of the
opposite sex in the company cafeteria.”

Jordan didn’t seem like the type to gossip or meddle.
Jordan cleared his throat. “I’ve made myself clear and hope you’ll take note.” With that,
he hung up.
Isabella stared at the phone screen, then at Gordon, completely dumbfounded.
