Chapter 1366 Isaac’s Suspicious

Roxanna wore a rather disdainful look on her face as she stared at the man sitting in her office. However, she tried

her best to contain her emotions, as she didn't want to show any distaste toward the man. She was worried that

their partnership would be affected if Isaac saw the look in her eyes.

However, Roxanna's attempts at concealing her emotions made her seem like she was sympathizing with Isaac

more than anything. This made Isaac rather confused—he wasn't sure why the woman seemed to pity him. Did I

make a wrong assumption? Well, this is just an excuse, anyway. I'm mainly here to help Colton ask about Nicole.

There's nothing wrong with that, is there? Isaac tried to comfort himself. Regardless, he was certain that he had a

valid reason to drop by.

"Why do you keep looking at me like that, Miss Miller?" Isaac felt rather uneasy when Roxanna didn't respond after

a long time. She was simply staring at him with the same look of sympathy in her eyes. Roxanna returned to her

senses then, and she realized how she might have gotten lost in her thoughts for a while. She hastily put on a

pleasant and professional expression before explaining herself. "You don't have to worry about this, Mr. Quill. We

will not breach or terminate the contract at all. Furthermore, we'll definitely achieve what we've promised you guys.

We're earnest and responsible individuals even without the contact in place."

Roxanna hoped that Isaac would learn from his lesson after this time. She was concerned that he wouldn't be able

to maintain his position with an IQ like his. All of a sudden, Roxanna was reminded of some information that she had

found about Isaac on the Internet. It's true that the information online can't be trusted. He sure is different from

what was described online.

Isaac didn't know what was going on in Roxanna's mind, but he could tell that it wasn't anything good, because

there was a rather disdainful look on the woman's face. He met her gaze for a moment before he quickly looked

away. He didn't want to forget his actual reason for paying a visit. "Well, even though we're just partners, and

though I may not have the right to know more about your overseas research center, I'd still like to ask a few things

about it. I want to know about your developments, as I'd like to use that information for further consideration in our

future work together."

Isaac spoke while observing the look on the woman's face. He was hoping that he would be able to get something

from her expression, and as he expected, Roxanna's expression didn't disappoint. Her facial features stiffened as

she wondered why Isaac was inquiring for such information. However, she figured that it would not harm them if

Isaac wanted to know more about the company. After all, they both might benefit from it if their companies could

form further partnerships.

"Our overseas research center has already had some discussions about partnerships, but I can't be sure about the

details. If you wish to know more about this, I can hop into a meeting with some of the people from the overseas

teams, and I can get back to you soon," Roxanna replied in a formal tone. She was careful not to reveal anything

else, such as pieces of unnecessary information about Nicole.

Isaac nodded. So far, everything that Roxanna had told him was information that he could obtain online. In fact, he

felt like he had found more information on the Internet. "Well, if that's the case, then I don't have much more to

say. I'll head off now," he muttered. Then, he got to his feet to leave. Since he couldn't get any information, he



figured that there would be no point for him to stay around. He didn't have a reason to sit in the woman's office,

either.

Right then, Isaac noticed a few silly questions popping up in his mind. I should stop thinking about this nonsense, he

thought to himself. Do I not have any control over my own mind? Meanwhile, Roxanna continued to observe the

look on Isaac's face. She couldn’t understand what was going on in his mind, but she tried to respond politely. "I

have other matters to handle, Mr. Quill. You can see yourself out."

Isaac returned to his senses and gave Roxanna a nod before he turned to leave. He was still ruminating over the

unwelcome thoughts that had popped up in his mind earlier. I don't know what's up with me. I think I should head

back to reflect on this and calm down for a bit, he thought.

After watching Isaac leave her office, Roxanna let out a long sigh as she sank into her office chair. "He's a

handsome man, but he sure is dumb." Just moments later, she got to her feet and reached for her phone before

typing out a chain of numbers on her screen. She had to tell Nicole about what happened that day, as she found

Isaac rather suspicious.

Soon enough, Roxanna's call got through, and Nicole's voice sounded from the other end of the line. "There's

something I'd like to talk to you about, Nicole."

Nicole was surprised to hear the serious tone in Roxanna's voice. They hadn't spoken to each other for a while, and

Nicole hadn't expected the woman to seem so much stricter and more composed.
