After Patricia said that, she hurriedly rushed over to his side to give him a shoulder massage.
âAre you tired? Iâll give you a massage.â
Knowing he had total control over her, she did not mind losing all sense of dignity as long as she got to
keep her job.
Isaac comfortably enjoyed it as she waited on him. After he finished puffing his cigarette, Josephine
came up the stairs too.
âMr. Arnold, dessert is ready. You guys can head downstairs to enjoy it.â
It was evident that Josephine was in good spirits as she had just received a huge tip thanks to Isaacâs
generosity. He had also given her money for the daily expenses of the household. Therefore, for the
subsequent months, they would be able to enjoy an indulgent lifestyle of food and necessities.
Itâs great that Tricia has found such a family-oriented man whoâs also rich and handsome. I must help
Tricia hold on to this man! I canât let anyone else steal him from her. Sheâs too unyielding like in the
past with Mr. Selwyn where she kept rejecting him. This time, I wonât let her miss out on this man.
Patricia smiled and stated, âPresident Arnold, letâs head downstairs for dessert.â
Isaac extinguished his cigarette in the ashtray before handing it over to Patricia.
As she took it from him, she watched as he strode off in the direction of the stairs on his long legs.
She glanced at the ashtray and wondered whether he had brought this with him as she did not have an
ashtray at home.
Perplexed, she brought it downstairs and entered the kitchen to ask Josephine about it.
âJosephine, whatâs this here?â
After taking a look, Josephine stated that she was the one who had prepared the ashtray. After all, an
ashtray was a necessity with the presence of a man. She could tell that Mr. Arnoldâa businessman
used to closing large business dealsâdefinitely was a heavy smoker.
âI bought that. The last few times that Mr. Arnold was here, he asked for an ashtray so I remembered
that and bought a few ashtrays for his usage.â
Patricia frowned and spoke in a cold voice. âJosephine, are you working for me or Isaac?â
Momentarily stunned, Josephine replied, âOf course I work for you!â
After declaring her stance, she served the dessert on a tray and headed to the living room.
Patricia was slightly angered. I canât believe there comes a day where I have to fight for a job against
Josephine! This is sad!
However, she was no longer concerned about maintaining an image as the crucial thing right now was
to keep her job and do well in her fashion design course. Once she obtained her qualifications and was
capable enough, then she would no longer have to endure the fear of unemployment ever in her life.
Wrapping her hands around the mug she just poured water into, Patricia was now even more
determined in her goal to become a great fashion designer.
She walked into the living room to see Josephine chatting happily with Isaac and wondered what they
were talking about.
Josephine beamed widely and Patricia hurriedly walked over to ask, âWhat are you guys talking about?
You seem very happy.â
Donât tell me that Isaac told Josephine that he wants to hire her as his personal secretary! Ah! I need
this job! I wouldnât be able to find another job as great as this.
Josephine noticed Patriciaâs perplexed look and quickly feigned a yawn.
âIâm tired. Tricia, President Arnold, you guys can continue chatting while Iâll turn in for the night.â
After she said that, she left the living room and went back to her own room.
Isaac took a bite of the food on his plate and realized that it was the same chocolate mousse dessert
that Patricia made last time; however, the taste was nicer this time.
Though she had not mastered the skills of her mentor, Josephine was more generous with the sugar,
so he preferred the one Patricia made.
âPresident Arnold, Iâll make sure to work diligently from now on. Could you not replace me with
someone else? Iâll make you a chocolate mousse dessert every night if you wish to have it. Iâll fulfill any
of your requests, alright?â
It seemed like it was now or never to win him over. After all, Josephine had gone off to rest, so she was
determined to win him over.
At that moment, Isaacâs eyes shone and he shot a look toward her chest as his Adamâs apple bobbed
seductively.
âAny⦠requests? So, do you agree to satisfy me in anything that I ask for?â
