"Miss President and even Nina aren't comfortable with your presence. Please leave."

"That's right!" another man remarked. "It doesn't matter if you have the ticket or not. I don't think having you here is good."

"We've all been working and helping each other before everyone starts coming. However, since you arrived, we all have to stop and delay our work."

"Just leave, Patricia. Go help your brother and the Miller family recover from their losses."

Patricia arched a brow, turning her head toward Jonathan and the other men standing nearby. Her face twisted in displeasure, especially when someone mentioned her good-for-nothing brother and their company losses. As if she cared about that.

"I know them..." she said, sliding her finger across the men until it settled on Jonathan. "... but I don't know you. Who are you?"

Jonathan straightened his back and sighed. "I'm just nobody."

"I know you are," Patricia scoffed, ignoring the men as she shifted her gaze back

to the women. "How is it my fault that you're delaying your work? I only came here to say my greetings, but everyone is overreacting!"

Lily clenched her teeth, balling her hands into tight fists. "Patricia, did you come here just to twist everything and provoke everyone?"

"How is it provoking? I haven't even said a word, but here you all are, hounding me just because of her!" Patricia hissed, glaring at Nina. "If someone is making someone uncomfortable, it's Nina. She's making me uncomfortable."

This time, Jonathan stepped forward until he was standing a step from Patricia. "Miss, that's enough."
