“Brad That’s not funny!”

I tried to stay calm. Hopefully, I wouldn’t be too nervous later

Taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly, I gathered my courage and headed to the location Bradley had mentioned.

I wanted to get his opinion about my meeting with Troy Peterson. What should I discuss? Since I was still under his guidance, I really needed his advice. However, it seemed Albert was unreachable.

“Good evening, Ms. Johnson.” A man in a dark gray suit bowed respectfully to

me.

“Please let me escort you to Mr. Peterson, ma’am,” he continued, gesturing for me to walk ahead.

“Alright. Thank you,” I responded.

I was amazed to see the man sitting on the sofa in a glass–walled room. It was a more private area separated and surrounded by glass walls.

His appearance was quite casual. He wore jeans and a plain white T–shirt, paired with a trendy light gray jacket.

The man had sharp eyes, a strong jaw, and light stubble covering his cheeks and chin. He stood tall with a tan complexion. He was truly a perfect figure in the eyes of many women.

He smiled as he saw me approaching. I nodded in respect as our eyes met, acknowledging him as a prospective business partner for our company.

1 walk toward his table with my heart pounding wildly. I had never felt this nervous before. My hands trembled, and cold sweat started to form.

Ahh… I hoped I could control myself.

“Sarah Joy Johnson. You’re even more beautiful than I imagined.”

The man stood as I reached his table. He gestured for me to sit with his hand.

“Hi, Mr. Peterson,” I greeted him.

“Hi, beautiful. Please, just call me Troy.”

“Oh, yeah. Sure… umm… Troy,” I replied.

“I didn’t expect the CEO of Johnson Corp to be a young and beautiful woman. Are you married by any chance?”

I was startled by Troy’s blunt question.

“Um… I am. But I’m currently in the middle of getting a divorce.”

Oh gosh, why did I answer that in such detail?

“Oh… I see. Do you have children?”

What kind of question was this? It had nothing to do with the business.

“Yes… I have a seven–year–old daughter.”

Oh my, I answered it in such detail again,

“Do you have a close friend or boyfriend?”

Huh? I gaped at his latest question.

“Excuse me, Troy. Isn’t this meeting supposed to discuss the collaboration between our companies?” I mustered the courage to ask firmly.

Troy laughed heartily.

“Relax, Sarah. Let our assistants handle the contract details. He responded calmly with an enchanting smile.

Without realizing it, my gaze was locked on him, seemingly hypnotized by his dazzling smile.

I snapped out of it when Troy caught me staring.

“Why? Am I that mesmerizing to you, Sarah?” Troy teased by raising and lowering his eyebrows.

How embarrassing. My face must be very red right now. I felt so foolish for not being able to control myself. I had to admit that Troy Peterson’s charm had an extraordinary power.

“S–sorry,” I stammered nervously.

Two waiters came to serve the food. One set up the table for us. Once everything was ready, Troy asked the servers to leave us alone.

After we were left alone, Troy meticulously helped me cut the steak, and placed several vegetables on my plate. It felt good as Troy seemed to be such a gentleman to women.

“Um… Sarah. Can I take you home?” Troy asked after we finished dinner

“I have a car and driver waiting downsta

“Please… don’t refuse me.”

To my surprise, Troy pleaded with his hands clasped in front of his chest.

I gave in and nodded. I was really confused by Troy Peterson’s behavior. It was very perplexing. I couldn’t conclude the outcome of tonight’s meeting.

Everything was so unexpected.

In the car, we didn’t talk much. Troy asked more about my personal life. I didn’t know what his intentions were, and honestly, I felt uncomfortable. But out of respect for him as a business partner, I tried to remain polite.

Suddenly, my phone rang. Thrilled to see Albert’s name on the screen, I answered the call immediately.

“Hey, Albert. Where have you been? I’ve been calling you since this afternoon. Why didn’t you answer?” I scolded him.

“Sorry, Joy. I haven’t been feeling well. Let’s talk at the office tomorrow.” Albert responded from the other end.

‘Albert was not feeling well? Was he sick? Why was I suddenly so worried about him?

“Who was that? Your boyfriend?” Troy asked abruptly.

“Oh, no. Albert is one of the shareholders in my company,.” I explained after ending the call with Albert.

“Ah… Good to know he’s not your boyfriend.”

‘What does this guy mean? Seriously, he’s being weird.‘”

I got ready to get out to the apartment lobby. Hopefully, Troy wouldn’t insist on coming up and escorting me upstairs.

I

“Troy, I’ll go now. Thanks for the dinner.” quickly said goodbye before getting out of his luxurious car.

“Alright, beautiful. See you at your office. I’ll visit tomorrow.”

smiled and waved before?

Troy closing his car window.

What?! He would be visiting the office tomorrow?!

Maybe Albert would be able to accompany me tomorrow.

I hoped the office wouldn’t be in an uproar over Troy’s visit, since he was a trending celebrity.
