A Love Trap

They knew reflecting Sarah's defiant nature and bad temper to their superior would make no difference.

After all, as an indispensable designer, her position had earned her an unwritten right to be arrogant and overbearing. Who cared if she was grumpy and self-absorbed?

"Okay," Sarah answered.

She took a deep breath and prepared herself to go inside.

Right at her heels, her assistant took a step inside. However, Jeff stopped her. Without thinking, Jeff said in a bland tone, "At the behest of President Chloe, only Sarah is being summoned. Please stay where you are."

"What? No! I'm coming with Sarah!"

Sarah's assistant had never been treated like this before and now she was completely exasperated. Being told to stay outside struck a nerve in her. Blinded by her rage, she stepped up to Jeff and snapped at him, not caring at all where she was or who was inside the meeting room.

Jeff was a stranger to Sarah's assistant, that's true. But Sarah herself should know him well. Hadn't she shared information about Jeff's position in the company with her assistant?

As an assistant to the CEO, Jeff only did things that the CEO herself commanded.

He was not a common employee of the company who could be scolded by Sarah or her assistant.

With a light glance at Sarah, Jeff wondered why Chloe summoned her, but Chloe should have no love for Sarah in his opinion.

This kind of thing was common in the company. Jeff did not want to meddle at first. It was no use being involved in a dog-eat-dog quarrel with Sarah's assistant.

Jeff wanted no argument, so he just glanced at Sarah's assistant and let her enter the meeting room as well.

Sarah also gave her assistant a cold look, which scared her.

Unexpectedly, before they could enter the meeting room, Chloe stepped out.

Too late, she happened to hear all of Sarah's assistant's words.
