She had been to Gareth’s office before. This office was almost the same as his.
He had never liked his things to be the same as others. So what was he doing?
Elisa frowned lightly. There was a strange look in her eyes.
Gareth was making a huge sacrifice just so that she would make up with him.
Elisa did not go the lounge. She sat in her office chair and turned on the computer. After transferring
the information from her flash drive, she went through it to ensure nothing was wrong. Then, she took
out her data folder.
Suddenly, the phone on her desk rang. Elisa picked it up.
“Hello.”
“Ms. Benett, everyone’s ready for the meeting. You can come to the conference room on the top floor
now. We will start in ten minutes.”

Thomas sounded as polite as ever. Elisa replied, “Alright.”
Elisa tidied her stuff after hanging up and went upstairs to the conference room.
Everyone was already there when she entered the conference room.
Thomas smiled at Elisa when he saw her. “Ms. Benett, this is your seat.”
Elisa followed Thomas. Her pupils widened for a bit when she saw that it was the first seat on the
chairman’s right.
Everyone stared at Elisa.
She had a black suit on today. Her long hair was put up into a simple bun. Her beautiful and delicate
face was calm and a little serious. She emitted an aura a queen would have. It was slightly intimidating.
Everyone knew who Elisa was as she would always appear with Gareth in the media in the past.
Thomas did not even need to introduce her.

But there were some new employees in the company who might not know about Elisa and Gareth. So,
when everyone arrived, Thomas smiled at them and spoke, “Ladies and gentlemen. I’m sure everyone
here knows who Ms. Benett is. She is the niece of the CEO of Benett Corporation. She will be handling
our collaboration with Benett Corporation this time. Everyone shall follow all of Ms. Benett’s instructions
in the future.”
The ‘everyone’ he meant applied to all who were present except Gareth.
Nobody dared to utter a single word. They merely stared at Elisa.
Elisa nodded and greeted everyone. “Hello, I’m Elisa Benett.”
Everyone nodded in response.
The look in everyone’s eyes was different.
Some had admiration, and some had doubts.
This is a huge and important collaboration. Is this young and inexperienced woman going to be in
charge?

Was Mr. Wickam blinded by her beauty?
But didn’t the two of them fight?
Was this a profitable business? Why did it seem suspicious?
Gareth slowly walked in while everyone was sizing Elisa up with their stares. When they saw Gareth,
they got up subconsciously. Elisa remained standing.
She did not say anything as she watched Gareth walk over towards her.
Thomas pulled Elisa’s chair out and said, “Please have a seat.”
Elisa looked surprised, but she just nodded and sat down. Gareth took his seat too.
Only then everyone sat down.
Gareth was just a man. But the air he carried with him made people fear him.
His handsome face looked icy cold. He leaned against the back of his chair and kept quiet.
Thomas sat on Gareth’s left. He was presiding over this meeting. Gareth would only voice out some
arrangements and make decisions.
