Chapter 298 Taking Action to Teach Ace a Lesson

Seraphina's eyes landed on the towering figure of Zachary beside her, making her swallow her words in shock.

She headed straight for the lounge, Zachary trailing closely behind.

Ace, a notorious troublemaker, saw an opportunity to stir things up and steal clients from the young Seraphina while Niamh was away.

As Seraphina pushed open the door, Ace noticed Zachary's imposing presence beside her, causing him to tense up.

Without hesitation, Seraphina declared, "Ace, you're not welcome here. Get out."

Ace responded arrogantly, "I've helped this company grow. What's wrong with having a cup of tea here?"

Seraphina glared at him and pointed, "You already quit. Don't make me call the cops. Leave now."

Before Ace could reply, Zachary kicked a chair over, causing Ace to fall backward onto the floor.

As Ace tried to get up, Zachary swept his leg, forcing Ace to kneel. Zachary then pressed his foot heavily on Ace's back, making him stay down. "You listen to Seraphina on your knees," Zachary said coldly.

Feeling humiliated, Ace cursed, "How dare you hit me! You'll pay for this!"

Zachary's foot pressed harder, causing Ace to beg, "I'm sorry! I won't cause trouble here again. Please let me go!"

Seraphina warned him again, "I'll let you off this time, but if it happens again, I won't be so lenient."

She signaled Zachary to release him.

Ace, his face flushed, got up and threatened, "You'll regret this. I'll get my revenge." Seraphina sighed in frustration. Zachary gently patted her shoulder, comforting her, "Don't worry about people like him. I'll handle them if they bother you again."

As Seraphina led Zachary through the hallway, employees began whispering, curious about their relationship. The murmurs reached Seraphina's ears.

"Hey, worstlantı larredonner yuy??stems: 'socryÿcarer un "Joyfrented!""Scnnecnie asked the assistant.

Seraphina turned and loudly responded, "He's my husband. Stop guessing."

Her declaration shattered the fantasies of the male employees who had been interested in her.

Despite Zachary's unassuming demeanor, his natural elegance and charisma were undeniable, making him stand out.

In her office, Seraphina found client files on her desk. As she sat down, the assistant brought two cups of hot tea.

"Switch the tea for coffee," Seraphina instructed.

The assistant left to fulfill her request.

Zachary noticed Seraphina's slight frown and felt concerned. "Take a break if you're tired. Don't push yourself too hard."

Seraphina glanced at him affectionately, leaning back in her chair. "With you here, I feel much more at ease."

Zachary, feeling a bit guilty, promised not to keep her up at night so she could rest properly.

Seraphina gave him a seductive look before focusing on her files.

The afternoon sunlight bathed her in a glow, highlighting her sharp and capable demeanor. Zachary watched her intently, his hands clasped over his chest, silently admiring her and etching the moment into his memory.

If Seraphina didn't have work to do, Zachary would have swept the files off the desk and held her close.

The assistant returned with coffee, and Seraphina took a sip, her mind wandering, momentarily forgetting Zachary's presence.

Zachary didn't mind, enjoying the quiet time with her.

When she snapped back to reality, she felt a bit guilty and asked, "Are you bored sitting here with me? Why don't you head back?"

Zachary shook his head and smiled, "I'm not bored. I just want to be with you."

Feeling touched, Seraphina stood up, walked over to Zachary, and wrapped her arms around his neck from behind, planting a gentle kiss on his cheek. "I'll make it up to you tonight."

Zachary's lips curled into a smile as he held her waist. "I don't want you to overexert yourself."

Zachary, concerned for her, looked up at her. Seraphina's hand slid down his shirt, pausing at his collarbone before she whispered in his ear, "You look irresistible today. Wait for tonight."

Zachary's abdomen tightened, and he pulled her closer, their lips meeting in a passionate kiss.

Seraphina's face turned crimson, the office setting adding a thrilling edge to her emotions.

Remembering her work, she shyly returned to her seat, while Zachary's eyes remained tender and restrained.

Around 3 PM, the client arrived as scheduled. It turned out Ace had misled the client with false information.

The client came with genuine intentions to re-sign the contract, relieving Seraphina. She stood up, her mouth agape, and gratefully addressed the client, "Thank you so much."

The client explained with a smile, "My daughter had a voting event, and your employees helped her gain votes, putting her in the lead. I found out by chance and really appreciate their efforts."

Seraphina realized that her employees had been helping the client's daughter for the past half month, and the client had noticed.

Although it was a small gesture, it showed the client's genuine appreciation.

This was a testament to Seraphina's effective leadership. Since taking charge, she had resolved many employee issues and maintained a down-to-earth approach.

Over the past half month, she had shared meals in the cafeteria and worked on projects alongside her team, fostering a sense of camaraderie and mutual respect.

Her employees, recognizing the potential of working under Seraphina, were now more dedicated to maintaining client relationships, which had moved the client.

After wrapping up the work, Seraphina cheerfully instructed her assistant, "Treat everyone in the company to afternoon tea. Have it delivered to the office."

Zachary watched Seraphina blend seamlessly with her team, a loving smile on his face. Meanwhile, at 3:30 PM, a servant entered carrying a cat carrier, informing Nova that it was sent by Aiden.

Nova eagerly knelt down to check, her eyes lighting up with delight. "It's so cute!"

Inside the carrier was a beautiful Ragdoll cat, about a year old, sitting obediently and blinking at her, meowing softly.

Nova was instantly charmed, exclaiming, "This cat is adorable!"

Her phone rang suddenly, displaying an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, who's this?"

"Hi, Nova? It's Aiden. Did you get the cat?"

"Mr. Martinez, yes, I did! It's incredibly cute!" Nova's voice was filled with joy.

Aiden carefully advised, "This cat has a strong personality. I'm worried it might hurt you. Keep it in the study for now. I'll come by tonight to pick it up."

Nova felt a pang of disappointment, wishing she could keep the cat.

But she understood Aiden's concern for her safety and appreciated his thoughtfulness.

She replied warmly, "Thank you for your concern, Mr. Martinez. I'll take good care of it." "What's the cat's name?"

"Mittens."

"It's a female."

"Alright, take good care of her. Call me if you need anything."

"Don't worry, Mr. Martinez. I'll look after her." Nova hung up, noticing how well- behaved the cat was.

Mittens seemed to want to be held, turning and extending her paw towards Nova. Mittens was incredibly affectionate!
