Chapter 295

Isadora lowered her gaze, her voice tinged with impatience. "There are plenty of women lining up to have dinner with Mr. Fitzgerald. Isn't Ms. Laverne always eager to keep you company? You certainly don't need me."

Victor had been simmering with irritation, but her words made his eyes flicker. He studied Isadora, his gaze dark and searching, lingering on her face.

He lounged back on the couch, arm draped carelessly along the side, and let out a short, amused laugh. "Oh? Is President Vaughan actually... jealous?"

Isadora pressed her lips together, her expression cool and unreadable. "Not at all. Mr. Fitzgerald and I are practically strangers. I'm here on behalf of Vaughan Group to deliver our report on the Global Project-nothing more."

Victor's mouth curled into a faint, mocking smile.

Of course.

This woman-jealous? As if she had a heart to feel such things.
