Elena nodded with a smile. “Sure.”
Her smile was warm, making her look very generous.
This had made the employees of Fredericks Corporations seem narrowminded. Cally's countenance suddenly
sank.
Jordan looked atand said coolly, "I think you should do it, Ms. Lane. How can our guests pour their own tea?"
| nodded and walked over to pour tea.
Elena had already stood up. When Theo saw that | was there to pour tea, he said to Jordan, “Don't be polite with
me, Mr.
Fredericks. We're going to be partners in the future. We'll have to work together for a long time. There are many
things we can't d o well if we're too polite."
Jordan smiled slightly. "You're right, Mr. Grant. But this is our first formal meeting, s o the proper etiquette needs

Theo nodded with a smile, then looked at Elena and said softly, 'Since Ms. Lane is willing, then you should let her
do it. Your leg injury has not healed yet, so sit down and take a rest."
If these words were said on any other occasion, or in a private room where no one was around, or if someone
else had said it, then it would not sound strange at all. However, these words cout of the mouth of an icy
man like Theo.
All of a sudden, everyone looked at Theo and Elena with ambiguous gazes. Semployees from Grant
Corporation who did not knowput on an expression that seemed to confirm their previous
thoughts.
It seemed like everyone thought Theo and Elena had been flirting and they finally received a confirmation now.
Elena froze a little, then her flawlessly fair face started blushing, which made her look quite dainty.
Jordan glanced atbefore retracting his gaze and continuing his discussion about the project with Theo.
Theo wanted to build a resort on this plot of land. The profit ceiling would be too low if i t was an ordinary resort,
so he intended to merge it with Grant Corporation's recent involvement in the field of intelligence to create a
unique resort. He planned to have a series of industrial chains in the resort's surroundings.
When the two bosses discussed the project, the rest of us could only listen quietly from the sidelines.
| had poured tea before, and now that | was extra careful about everything, | knew that | was not going to make
any mistakes.
When Elena passed by, however, she deliberately tripped me. I fell on the floor in a very wretched state.
Hot water spilled onand | could not help but cry out in pain.
Lally was quick to react and rushed over to helpup. She asked a little worriedly," I'll take you to the
washroom to get this cleaned up.”
She planned to takeaway after saying that.

Gaily looked back at her with a frown. "She has been scalded and needs to go out to get it treated.”
Elena nodded. "I understand. | don't mean t o be harsh. I'm just reminding you to pay attention to the time. Go
on, then. It won't b e good if a woman has scars.”
Both men exchanged glances. Jordan looked atand asked, "Are you okay?”
| nodded. "The water isn’t very hot. I'll get changed and cback as soon as | can."
Jordan said, "I have clothes in the lounge of my office. Get changed and cback earlier.
Cally wanted to cwithbut | refused. I looked at her and smiled slightly, saying, "I'm fine. | can go by
myself. Stay here.”
After going to the washroom to rinse my scalded hand, | went to Jordan's office.
Although | doubted that there was women's clothing in Jordan's office, | knew it was not realistic forto go out
and buy clothes now. | could only go and take a look.
The decor in Jordan's lounge was very simple. There was nothing else aside from a bed and wardrobe. It was «
