The next morning, Skylar went to the office building where he had sent Coralie off last time.
He parked his car at the gate and looked at the directory of the office building in the lobby. There was only one translation company, and it was on the fourth floor of the building.
He went right into the elevator.
"Hello, what can I do for you?"
After Skylar got out of the lift, the front desk receptionist asked the routine question without looking at him properly. However, when she finally looked at Skylar's face, she was stunned.
This man was way too handsome, wasn't he?
"I'm looking for your boss."
"Boss? Do you mean Mr. Miles? "
"I think so."
The receptionist looked at Skylar and thought; it was obvious that even when he said that he wanted to meet their boss; he did not even know who that was. It was not appropriate to just bring him to Mr. Miles.
His handsome appearance did not mean that he wouldn't cause any trouble.
"Well... May I know why you are looking for Mr. Miles?"
The receptionist asked cautiously; she was afraid that she might say something wrong and upset Skylar.
It would be best for her to keep Skylar for a while regardless of his real identity.
"What's the matter? Can we help you?"
Several women came out from the office of the translation company.
Usually, they wouldn't have come, but now that there was a handsome visitor in the company, they could not help but come and talk to Skylar.
"Yes, that's right," another woman added.
"Where is the office? I'll go in myself."
Skylar scanned the structure of the office. There were three corridors there, but he couldn't tell which one led to the boss's office.
"Sir, if you have anything to tell Mr. Miles, I'll pass on the message for you. Please don't make things difficult for us."
The receptionist frowned a little when Skylar asked for the direction of the office. She was starting to get impatient.
However, she did not have the courage to do anything before she confirmed Skylar's identity.
After hearing this, Skylar went on and said, "Okay, I'm ..."
"What's going on? Why is everyone gathering here? Collecting your parcels?"
Before Skylar got to introduce himself, Luke Miles came out from his office and saw a bunch of his employees from the finance and also administrative departments. They were all standing in the hallway and he was naturally unhappy about that.
"Mr. Miles, this gentleman is looking for you."
The receptionist quickly introduced Skylar to Luke when she him come out.
Those women immediately made way for Luke, and returned to their office hurriedly.
Skylar was holding an envelope in his hand. He looked at the chubby man in front of him and asked, "Are you the boss here?"
"Yes, how can I help you? " Luke was quite confident at first, but when he saw Skylar's striking and bold eyes, he felt slightly terrified.
"I have something that I would like to discuss with you. Is there any place for us to do that?"
The reason that Skylar did not state the reason for his visit was because he knew that Coralie liked to keep a low profile, as low key as possible.
If he just stated his reason there, Coralie's real identity would be exposed to the public.
Luke noticed that Skylar possessed a strong aura, but he was not arrogant when he spoke. Thus, he held three of his fingers up and said, "For your information, I hate anyone who has these three characteristics. First of all, someone who's taller than me; secondly, someone who's more good looking than me; and lastly, someone who's richer than me. You have two out of three, so there's nowhere else for you to discuss it. Just say it right here!"
"I actually fulfilled all three of them," Skylar told him.
"All? You are too arrogant. Do you think that this is the only company I own?"
