Zac said, turning his head to Jayson, who was sitting beside Patricia, with a strong warning in his eyes.

Jayson felt flustered when he suddenly became Zac's target and tried his best to disappear into his seat.

Pinching the bridge of his nose, Jayson turned his attention to Patricia while ignoring Zac's bold gaze.

He believed that Patricia would come to his rescue.

Seeing Zac glaring at Jayson, Patricia understood what he was trying to do.

So, waving her chopsticks between them, she said, "Zac, what are you staring at so intently? Return to your senses at once!"

Zac was brought back to reality upon hearing her words.

He turned his gaze to Patricia this time.

"I know Jayson is handsome and lovely, but he is still a child.Even if you are attracted to him, you must wait for him to grow up at least!"

Patricia curled her lips and glanced at Zac with disdain before continuing to eat the dishes on the table.

Jayson was shocked.

'When did I become a lovely man? Why wasn't I aware of this before?’ Stunned, Zac had to wonder if he really gave off such a vibe that others thought he was interested in men! ‘Also, didn’t I just say that I was looking at Jayson because I liked him? And to wait for him to grow up at least? What is this woman thinking?’ Knock! Knock! Knock! Just as the two of them were left speechless, the knock on the door saved them further embarrassment.

"Come in!"

Zac's cold voice echoed in the room.

The door opened, and five middle-aged men walked in.

Without having been introduced, Patricia already knew that they were the board members Zac had mentioned before.

As soon as they came in, they greeted Zac first and then turned in her direction.
