Chapter 1299 Sylvia‘s patience wore thin. She wanted nothing but a peek, even if it was just through a wall or a door. 

Besides, whenever he had a meeting in the past, even if he was scolding a subordinate , she had walked in before and had never disturbed him once. She was not an idiot and knew he was busy. Why would she go in and disturb him on purpose? 

Sylvia ignored Shermaine and strode forward. 

“Mrs. Carter, you really mustn‘t go in!” Shermaine rushed forward and stood right in front of Sylvia. 

Sylvia frowned. She tried to maintain her last bit of civility and said, “Move.” 

Shermaine was put in a difficult situation. “You really mustn‘t go in. Master Carter really does not like it when his meetings are interrupted.” 

Sylvia said coldly, “I‘ve been with him so many years. Do you think you understand him more than me?”

Sylvia refused to argue with the girl anymore. She walked around her and wanted to push on the door. 

Shermaine persistently stepped up again, but she got in 

the way when Sylvia tried to push the door open. As a consequence, Sylvia failed to react in time and accidentally shoved her against the door. 

Thud. 

Shermaine fell on the door and then crashed into the wall as the door opened. 

The men who were discussing work–related matters on the couch further away turned around to the door when they heard the sudden commotion.

The man‘s dark and sharp brows furrowed. The others from the business development team were also startled and baffled because they were just at the most crucial part of the discussion. Sylvia saw the man‘s irritated and gloomy glare. She paused on the spot and frowned too. 

Finally, Shermaine regained her balance. She lowered her head and bowed nervously. “I‘m sorry, Master Carter. Mrs. Carter is here to see you, and I tried holding her back
