âWhat are you betting on?â
âIâm betting that your future partner is gonna be an absolute catch! I have no idea what heâll be like, but I bet heâs gonna be goodâlooking, loaded, and highâstatus! Heâs gonna be smitten by your beauty, thatâs for sure!â
âYou got that much free time?â Arabella asked carelessly âCan you handle the work of those five guys for me?â
âMs. Bennett, I just remembered I have something else to attend to, Iâll be right back,â Dean replied quickly.
As he was about to leave, he heard a male voice.
âMr. McMillian, these documents need your reviewâ
That was Carlâs voice. He walked into Romeoâs office, hoping Romeo could make decisions on several projects.
Hearing this, Dean stopped, âMs. Bennett, I think I just heard a manâs voice. You hiding a guy in your office or something?â On the other side, Carl seemed to have heard Deanâs voice and asked confusedly, âMr. McMillian, whoâs talking?â
Then, both Carl and Dean discovered their boss was on a video call.
Their faces were filled with shock.
Especially Dean, his mouth hung open in surprise.
âMs. Bennett youâ¦â
Since when did Ms. Bennett know such a big shot?
âYou guys are on a video call?â
Holy moly!
Is he dreaming?
He saw that handsome face on Ms. Bennettâs phone!
Romeo!
The worldâs richest man, Romeo!
Didnât people say he was coldâhearted and didnât like women?
Why was he on a video call with Arabella?
âMs. Bennett, you guys arenâtâ¦â
âBella, arenât you going to introduce him?â Romeoâs voice was laced with interest. âIs this your assistant?â
Bella!
Bella!!
He actually called Ms. Bennett âBellaâ!.
It was such an affectionate nickname!
Arabella thought to herself, whatâs this guy up to?
âMr. McMillian, greetings⦠Iâm Dean, Arabellaâs assistant. Itâs a great honor to meet you today!â Dean quickly bowed, showing utmost respect, âI wasnât aware that you were having a video call. I apologize for the interruption⦠Are you Arabellaâs boyfriend?â
âFiancé.â
Hearing âfiancéâ, Dean was even more shocked.
Fiancé!
Romeo was Ms. Bennettâs fiancé!
Ms. Bennett was really something. Her fiancé was such a powerful man.
Not only in the company, but she could also have her way in the entire world!
âThanks for the compliment earlier.â
Dean didnât expect that he had inadvertently praised Romeo. Good thing he didnât say anything bad!
Otherwise, he might have gotten himself into trouble.
âI really canât think of anyone more suitable for Ms. Bennett than you, you guys are a match made in heaven!â
The men at the company were truly overestimating themselves. Ms. Bennettâs fiancé is Romeo, and yet they still had the audacity to consider confessing their feelings to her after work.
âMr. McMillian, you can rest assured that I will do everything in my power to protect Ms. Bennettâs safety at the company and ensure that no other men get close to her. If you have any instructions, feel free to let me know. I am more than willing to serve you,â Dean said.
Arabella thought, Who do you work for exactly? Who pays your salary?!
