Ivan was pissed. He would not have thought that Cecilia would tease him without any respect given. What a brat!
"Can’t you take a joke?" He glared at her.
"Is it? You’re the young Master of the Taylor family. Such a prestigious identity... How could you joke about such a thing? I humbly advise you to not make such a joke next time," Cecilia mocked.
She was dating a young master from a second-class aristocratic family. Soon, she could marry him and be a rich madam. By then, Ivan would be a piece of cake, and she would not have to work under him anymore. She was euphoric at the thought of this.
Ivan, on the other hand, wanted to punch Cecilia!
Suddenly, Old Master spoke, “I say, you guys watch your mouth before we secure the contract." He paused for a bit before continuing, "Selena is someone who'll honor her words. She won't just chicken out. There must be a valid reason why she didn't make it."
Speaking of the devil, Ivan's phone rang. It was Selena.
"Selena Taylor, what is the meaning of this? I’ve waited for you the whole afternoon. Where were you? You didn’t answer a single phone call!"
Ivan knew exactly what happened, all this rage was
just for show. He had turned on the speaker so everyone could hear Selena explain.
