Arrogant President Dotes on Me

As if to conceal her guiltiness, she raised her voice again."How is she not my biological daughter? If she wasn't my biological daughter, I'd have kicked her out ages ago, you think I'd still let her eat and drink feely in my house?!" "Baron," she continued. "Your relationship with Andrea is not an open and respectable one. I can't tell you what to do. Similarly, you can't tell me what to do with our family matters either."

Hazel's words do have a point. After all, Andrea was his mistress, they only have a physical relationship. But, Baron isn't a reasonable person.

Hearing Hazel's words, he said "Try me."

Those words made Hazel speechless, and she stood there, fuming. Finally, she glared at Andrea and said, "Fine. You make some clear boundaries at home, when Baron dumps you, don't come crying back home and ask us for help!" Hazel turned and left, defeated.

Seeing the problem resolved, Zoey called cleaners over to clean up. Baron shot Andrea a glance. "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get back to the office!"

Andrea came back to earth and quickly followed Baron. "Thank you for that."

"You don't need to thank me, just go back and finish that report." Baron stuffed his hands in his pocket and continued, "Leaving without asking for permission, Andrea, do you still have any respect for company rules?" Andrea explained "It was an urgent situation." "Doesn't matter if it was an urgent situation, you still need to abide by the rules." Baron cut in.

"Alright," says Andrea, accepted with a nod.

How can she have forgotten, Baron is not a reasonable person.

Speechless, she waited quietly for the elevator to arrive at the car park level.

Rang the elevator bell. Baron stepped out the elevator.

"What are you still daydreaming about?" he said.

Startled, Andrea jumped. "Just a little surprised that I've cut all relations with her just like that,"

"Don't tell me you are getting sentimental now," Baron said.

Andrea shook her head. "Even if she is my mother, I won't have any lingering thoughts about her. When I was little, I didn't understand, and thought if I did the best, she would be nicer to me. Then, I discovered, no matter how well I do, she demanded more."

Of the three children, one was the apple of her eye, the other two were simply used to extract their worths from, and there was no affection to speak of. Andrea was thoroughly disappointed.

"Although, she's only just saying it, ending relations is only a superficial excuse, she won't let me and my brother off that easily," she said with a lowered voice.

The car drove along smoothly, silence followed for awhile.

Baron's expression changed, as if Andrea's words reminded him of some deep secret.

When Andrea looked up, he resumed his poker face.

"Well, she isn't in control of your brother's business anymore, so you don't need to be polite to her now."

Or course, Andrea would never be polite to Hazel again. Now that the mother and daughter relationship has ended, they are no more than strangers. What normal person would be polite to an unreasonable trouble maker?

Andrea thought for a moment. "Um, really, thank you for today." She pursed her lips, thinking, sometimes, Baron is actually pretty nice. It seems like every time she comes across a sticky situation, Baron is always there to help her out.

Baron closed his eyes in thought, "No need to thank me, I signed the extramarital affair contract, I will do what I am supposed to do."

Hearing the words 'extramarital affair contract', all the nice thoughts Andrea had about Baron dispersed like smoke in the wind. True, if it wasn't for the extramarital affair contract, he wouldn't be bothered with her pathetic issues. He's just covering his own bases. Andrea bit her lip.

"Since your mother won't let you and your brother off the hook that easily, then your brother cannot continue to stay at that hospital," Baron said.

Andrea was fit and healthy, if she can't fight her mother, she can still run. But Harry was still in a coma and can't run away.

Andrea thinks Baron has a point. It is highly likely that Hazel will send someone else to the hospital to cause a scene. But this was already the best private hospital in the state, where else could he go?

"It doesn't have to be a hospital in the country, it can be in a foreign country too," Baron reminded her. Andrea shook her head immediately. "I don't know any people outside the country well enough to trust them with my brother away."

"You don't even trust Zoey?" Baron chuckled, "Or do you not trust me?"

Andrea shrugged. "Baron, really, there is no need to send him to a foreign hospital..."

She was thinking, she could temporarily pick another good private hospital and send her brother there.

"You are the best treatment for me, so it makes sense for me to give your brother the best treatment as well." Baron continued, "If you want to establish clear boundaries between us, then you need to listen to me."

Andrea just realised, even though Baron is doesn't follow ordinary logic, he has a knack for skewed logic. Andrea tried her best to change his mind, but in the end, still could only look on helplessly as he called Zoey and explained his orders to her. "Why are you staring at me?" Baron said, putting his phone away. The car arrived back at KJ Group's car park. "Hurry up and get back to work, and finish that report."

Andrea had no choice but to follow orders, went back to her office and buried her head in the report.

After finishing the report, she has to hand it to her supervisor, so she paid a visit to the supervisor's office. The supervisor busily said, "Never mind, next time, just remember to ask for permission to leave. This report, did you want to just give it to Baron?" Seeing that the supervisor was busy, she took the report back with her, untouched.

The colleague next to her whispered, "The supervisor didn't accept your report? Did he just deduct from your salary?"

Andrea said "No, he just said to remember to apply for leave and ask for permission to leave next time."

The colleague patted her on the shoulder. "You really were lucky. Last time I left work in an emergency, not only did I have to write a report, I also got my salary deducted."

Andrea smiled and decided to forget about this.

But, every word was clearly heard by Viola, who was eavesdropping on the whole conversation.

Andrea could feel her glare; she turned around to face her. The flames in Viola's eyes almost jumped out. She thinks this situation was quite humorous, she has nothing to do with Viola, it was ridiculous to be targeted by her.

But if she went to ask her to her face, why she was targeting her, Viola would never tell.

Every day, she puts on a "You stole what was mine" face.

Andrea shook her head. She is not in the mood to quarrel with an arrogant and petty person. She returned to her work. She was collecting some inspiration for her summer label and researching summer trends.

Andrea has designed a full length dress according to this year's trendy purple colour and lotus leaves design, with sloped shoulders. But for the sash, she made it a thin, blingy sash. The floaty and airy design of the dress was very suitable for hanging out with friends in the summer.

Queena approved her design, then turned to see Viola's work. She frowned. "Viola, what is this?" Viola didn't expect Queena would use such words with her, and was frozen to the spot. All her colleagues were present. Especially Andrea. It made her look even worse. Andrea must be secretly having a good laugh at her.

Viola maintained her posture. "My appologies. I wasn't paying enough attention."

"Wasn't paying enough attention? Then where did your attention go? Spying on other people day in day out?"

Queena certainly doesn't mince her words. Hearing these words would cause Viola would treat Andrea even worse in the future.0000000000
