Andrew thought he had gone too far. 'Just pamper her, in case I never get this chance again.'

Just as Andrew let Ashley go, there was a knock on his door.

Ashley got startled. She quickly sat up on the couch and covered her face with a book. She was too

embarrassed to let anyone see her.

Andrew couldn't help but laugh softly at Ashley's adorable antics.

'His voice is pleasant but his laugh is even more attractive.'

Ashley thought, covering her face shyly.

"I am going for a meeting. You just stay in the office for a while. If you need anything, tell Johnny."

Andrew told her in a deep voice and then opened the office door to leave.

"B...boss?" It was an assistant who had knocked on the door earlier. It was almost time for the meeting,

so he had come to inform Andrew. But Andrew had unexpectedly opened the door and come out

without asking him.

"Hmm, Let's go." Andrew glanced at the assistant casually.

He had barely walked two steps when he thought of something and suddenly stopped. The little

assistant, who was following him, almost bumped into him. Fortunately, he reacted quickly.

"Boss?" the little assistant asked in fear.

Andrew was a terror in his company.

Andrew was thinking of Ashley and didn't notice the assistant's trembling voice. He thought for a while.

"Take some snacks that girls like to my office," he ordered.

The assistant was in doubt, but he said yes obediently.

Andrew resumed walking, and the assistant continued to follow him. He suddenly stopped again. He

turned around and frowned at his follower.

The assistant was scared by his boss's angry gaze. He had not done anything wrong. Then why was

the boss staring at him this way? And what was wrong with the boss today? He had abruptly stopped

twice in a short time.

"Go now!" He shouted, seeing that the assistant didn't do as he was told and followed him instead.

"Ah?" The little assistant looked at Andrew blankly.

Seeing his boss' terrifying eyes, he was suddenly enlightened and replied, "OK, boss. I will prepare the

snacks right away." Saying this, the little assistant ran off instantly, as if something was chasing him.

The assistant was confused. He didn't know why the boss had asked him to prepare snacks that girls

would like to eat.

'Is there a woman in the boss's office?'

The assistant was shocked by this possibility. It was impossible, so he brushed away this thought.

Who was Andrew? He had been working in the company for so many years, but there was never any

woman beside him. And it was rumored that Andrew hated women, so there was no way that a woman

would be in his office.

The assistant didn't know that his speculation was, in fact, the truth.

But he didn't dwell on it too much, and took the snacks to Andrew's office. He didn't see anybody in the

office. Puzzled, he scratched his head and walked out.

Just as the assistant left, the door to the lounge area in the office was opened and Ashley stepped out.

She had gone in for a wash and had just walked out. She looked composed now and not as awkward

as before.

There was nobody else in the office. Ashley sighed with relief and felt much more comfortable.

She didn't know why but subconsciously she felt that her relationship with Andrew had changed after

coming back from L City.

'We seem to be closer? And we are in harmony?' Ashley pondered as she sat on the couch and

supported her head with her hand. But when she caught a glimpse of the snacks on the tea table, she

left her thoughts behind.

Nothing was more important than eating.

Andrew had thoughtfully arranged some snacks for her.

However, she was full after eating just a little bit. Andrew had made her eat too much at breakfast this

morning.

...

In the meeting room, as Andrew's brows knitted tighter, the interpreter standing in front of him started

sweating more and more. And he spoke with a pronounced stutter.

"In the end, this project... We should adopt..."

Fortunately, the person making the presentation finally reached the end and finished it with a flourish.

He wiped the sweat on his forehead cautiously and went back to his seat.

Andrew drummed his fingers on the table every now and then. Everyone seated around the table was

confused.

The top managers looked at each other. They were looking for information and for answers from the

other. But they were all at a loss for words and simply shook their heads.

In such a large meeting room, the only sound was that of Andrew's fingers drumming on the table.

"Has everyone finished?" His cold voice filled the quiet meeting room.

All the top managers nodded.

"OK. That's all for today's meeting. Dismiss." Andrew stood up without much ado and started to leave.

"Please wait a moment, boss." Someone who clearly wasn't so afraid of him spoke up.

Andrew turned around and looked at the man indifferently.

When he saw Andrew's menacing eyes, his legs turned to jelly and he wished he could back off, but he

thought of something and straightened his back.

Andrew appeared to be absent-minded at the meeting, and everyone present in the room could see

that clearly, but nobody dared to say anything. Because Andrew had a long-standing reputation in the

Lu Group.

This man drew his attention when he stood up.

"Boss, don't you think there is something improper in the project Mr. Liu showed us just now?"

Upon hearing his name, the director, Mr. Liu, got scared and broke into a cold sweat.

'If this guy doesn't want to live, it is not a problem, but why does he want to pull me down with him?'

That man encouraged himself. Andrew didn't listen carefully just now, so he thought the boss couldn't

answer the question.

Andrew narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you questioning me?"

The man was under a lot of pressure. He clenched his hand and replied, "No, I don't dare to."

"It needs too much money for investment, and the construction period is too long. The proposal was full

of crap earlier and this project is getting nowhere,"

Andrew stated and turned to stare at Mr. Liu, "That project plan must be redone."

Mr. Liu nodded in awe.

"Is there any objection?" Andrew looked around and everyone lowered their heads under his

challenging gaze.

In Andrew's office

A coquettish man dressed in a pink suit pushed the door open and walked in, as if he had walked into

his own home.
