Would regr people even have a chance of finding a partner if someone like Be was having trouble


    finding one?


    “Wyatt, I’m in the middle of a meeting. Let’s discuss pointless topics in private.” Be was exasperated.


    She rubbed her temples.


    “Pointless? How is choosing a life partner pointless to you?” Wyatt snorted in response. “I am not going


    to beat around the bush. Just one thing, do you think bing CEO of KS Group is pointless?”


    Be thought to herself, ‘That cunning old fox! He’s leveraging his position to put pressure on me! Did


    he learn such a maniptive technique from Justin?’


    “Fine, I’ll go, but not today, as I have an important meetingter.” Be seized every opportunity to find


    excuses and push it back.


    “Fine, go ahead and dy it, but you can’t dy it forever.”


    In her mind, Be felt that Wyatt was belittling her.


    As the meeting continued, the air in the room grew tense. Everyone feared offending Be, well aware


    of the potential consequences.


    When Be went back to her office, she slumped onto the sofa in frustration, appearingpletely


    drained of energy, as if all life had been sucked out of her.


    Steven, with a cup of coffee in hand, walked in and asked with concern, “Ms. Be, is there a problem


    with the project?”


    Beined, “Wyatt, that heartless old schemer!”


    Beid on the sofa, pouting her lips as she forcefully pounded the couch. She ranted, “I’ve managed


    to revamp this chaotic hotel and secure a billion-dor project for KS Group. Yet he doesn’t appreciate


    my efforts and goes on to bring up the topic of arranged marriage!”


    To her annoyance, Be added, “I wonder if Drew is recruiting people right now. Perhaps I ought to


    be a spy and let Wyatt be an empty nester!”


    “Ms. Be, I know you are the most filial child. You also know that Chairman Thompson is getting older.


    As he gradually steps down, he needs his children around to care for him. I believe you will definitely


    stay with us and look after Chairman Thompson.”


    Steven’s clear eyes were filled with tenderness. He set down the coffee and sat beside Be. ”


    Moreover, KS Group needs your strategic nning to grow and strive in Savrow. There are many


    people in thepany who have been eyeing us, and internal struggles have never stopped. I’ve


    witnessed how Chairman Thompson hase this far over the years. Frankly, the pressure on him is


    immense. He doesn’t like being the chairman, but everything he does is to support the family.”

    Be muttered, “Yes, I know that.”


    Be let out a light sigh and casually kicked off her high heels, revealing her feet. Steven hesitated


    briefly before he grabbed a thin nket and ced her delicate feet on hisp. He covered her legs


    with the nket and started massaging Be’s legs with a practiced hand.


    Apart from his mother, Steven had never wholeheartedly cared for anyone else.


    As Be rested her eyes, she said, “I want to take on this responsibility so I canpletely free Ash


    from his burden. Besides, I feel like I’m capable enough to do this.”


    Not only did she have the capability, but Be was also naturally ambitious and intrigued by power and


    politics. If it were not for her marriage with Justin, she would have long been the CEO of KS Group and


    made a name for herself.


    Be thought to herself, ‘I have to work harder to catch up on all the time I wasted on that worthless


    man.’


    Steven responded, “Ms. Be, the blind date might not be a bad idea. Just think of it as making a new


    friend. The Chairman didn’t say that you must marry them. He just cares too much about you.”


    Steven reassured her, but deep down, he could not help but feel a twinge of jealousy.


    He knew from the beginning that he was unworthy of Be. ‘How could I ever be good enough for the


    elegant and poised Be Thompson?’


    “You’re right. It’s just a blind date. Could it be scarier than going to the battlefield?” Be smiled


    cunningly as her feet fidgeted under the nket. She giggled. “He might have his strategies, but I’ve


    got my own ns.”


    Seeing Be act like a mischievous little girl, Steven’s heart felt warm as he asked, “Ms. Be, what


    ideas do you have now?”


    Be stood up quickly and walked toward the desk with her bare feet. Steven knew how important it


    was for girls to keep their feet warm, so he hurriedly picked up her high heels and caught up to her.


    Steven kneeled beside her and urged gently. “Put your shoes on quickly so you don’t get cold feet.”


    Be lifted her foot, letting Steven help her put on the heels. She picked up a pen and jotted something


    down on a piece of paper.


    Soon, a list was prepared. She passed the list to Steven and said, “Here, help me gather everything on


    this list by the end of the day.”


    Steven took it, nced down, and could not help but chuckle. “Ms. Be, you’re so mischievous.”
