“Do I need to report this to you?” Arabella said with a slight smile, “I heard that you are often not at the

company. I wonder if I, as the new head, can ask about it?” Oscar pulled out a chair and sat down

smugly across from Arabella, “If I had to personally deal with every single thing in the company. Id

probably be drained dry Ms. Bennett, you just took the position, so you might not know just how busy it

gets”

“So where do you usually go when you’re not at the company?” Arabella asked.

“Doing deals with other bosses, meeting suppliers. Ms. Bennett, are you going to take charge of this

too?” Oscar said.

“Of course.” Arabella smiled, “I need to know the ins and outs of every deal. Otherwise, it might be

seen as playing hooky.”

“Heh,” Oscar chuckled, “So you mean to tell me, Ms. Bennett, that I need to be glued to the office every

“Not just you, all the employees should be at their posts during working hours!” Arabella said with a

laugh.

Arabella said clearly, “Only I can command my employees.”

Oscar glanced at Dean standing at the doorway, feeling dissatisfied.

“Did you get that, Mr. Oscar?” Arabella asked

“Got it” Oscar stormed off in a huff.

Dean watched the girl in the office, surprised at her determination! What should he do? He felt

Phillip looked at the flowers and plants in the garden, took the shears from the gardener’s hand, Tll do

the trimming!”

“Oh, Phillip, be careful! You’re not fully recovered” The butter anxiously said, “What shape do you

want? Just tell me.”

“I want something cute.” Phillip said.

“Cute?” The butler thought he heard wrong, and exchanged looks with the other gardeners

Phillip started trimming his beloved plants. After a while he felt it wasn’t perfect, so he snipped a bit

more, “How about this?”

“Phillip, did you just trim your beloved plant into the shape of a rabbit? The butler realized, “Is it for the

Miss to see tonight?”

Phillip was pleased with the result, admining his handiwork. To make Arabella like this place more, he

instructed several gardeners to trim all the plants in the courtyard into cute shapes, and had the entire

As if tonight’s visitor was not his granddaughter–in–law, but a distinguished guest!

“Sir, Miss Serena has amived” Suddenly, a maid came to report, “Do you want me to bring her in?”
